Abstract: 16 USC 1531 et seq the Endangered Species Act (ESA) requires that fish or wildlife be imported into or exported from the United States only at a designated port or at a nondesignated port under certain circumstances. We use the information that we collect on FWS Form 3-200-2 to determine if an applicant qualifies to use a nondesignated port. The ESA also makes it unlawful for any person to engage in business as an importer or exporter of fish or wildlife without first obtaining permission from the Secretary of the Interior. We use the information that we collect on FWS Form 3-200-3 to enforce the Import/Export license conditions derived from the ESA.
