E. REGISTRATION OF A PRODUCTION FACILITY FOR EXPORT OF NATIVE CITES SPECIES
This application is to be used by qualified production facilities to establish an annual registration, or master file, to
export certain native species (if requesting authorization for sturgeon or paddlefish, please use form 3-200-76 or 3-20080. The master file will allow the registrant to obtain a number of single-use CITES export documents (at a cost of $5
each) for approved species. Please contact the Division of Management Authority or see our webpage at for a list of
qualified species and conditions that must be met to qualify for registration, or to answer any questions you may have.
The U.S. FWS may not be able to issue CITES documents for the commercial export of Appendix-I specimens,
unless the specimens were obtained from animals produced at a CITES-registered Appendix-I commercial
breeding operation. For more information on registering an Appendix-I commercial breeding operation, contact
the Division of Management Authority at [email protected].
Electronic submission of inventories, photographs, and receipts/invoices: If you wish to provide information
electronically, please include a flash drive containing your information with your physical application.
This application can be used to:
___ ESTABLISH A NEW REGISTRATION

____ RENEW AND/OR AMEND AN EXISTING REGISTRATION, FILE # _____________
For either the establishment of a new registration or renewal/amendment of an existing registration, please
