EXPORT/RE-IMPORT/TRANSPORT of BALD and GOLDEN EAGLE FOR INDIAN RELIGIOUS

This application is for a permit under the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna
and Flora (CITES) and the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act (BGEPA) for transport of bald eagle (Haliaeetus
leucocephalus) or golden eagle (Aquila chrysaetos) parts from or to the United States for Indian religious purposes.
BGEPA regulations provide that bald and golden eagle items may be temporarily transported out of the United
States; the same items, unchanged, must be re-imported. A permit, if issued, allows for one-time travel to a specific
location noted in the permit.
If you will be transporting any other species listed under CITES (e.g., river otter), or other species listed under the
Migratory Bird Treaty Act (e.g., songbird, hawk), in addition to bald or golden eagle parts, you may include them in
this application.
Complete all questions on the application. Mark questions that are not applicable with "N/A". If needed, use
separate sheets of paper. On all attachments or separate sheets you submit, indicate the application question
number you are addressing.
NOTE: A CITES permit is only required if the feathers are leaving and re-entering the United States from a
foreign nation that is not Mexico or Canada.
1. Name and address where you wish the permit to be mailed, if different from page 1. If you would like expedited
shipping, please enclose a self-addressed, pre-paid, computer-generated, courier service airway bill. If
unspecified, all documents will be mailed via regular mail through the U.S. Postal Service.

2. Who should we contact if we have questions about the application (name, phone number, and e-mail)?

3. Have you or any of the owners of the business (if applying as a business, corporation, or institution), been

felony violation of the Lacey Act, the Migratory Bird Treaty Act, or the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection
Act; forfeited collateral; OR are currently under charges for any violation of the laws mentioned above?
No

Yes

If you answered “Yes” to Question 3, provide: a) the individual’s name; b) date of charge; c) charge(s); d)
location of incident; e) court, and f) action taken for each violation. Please be aware that a “Yes” response
does not automatically disqualify you from getting a permit.
