Application for Import Permits and Certificates (CITES) (Online Service)
Directorate General of Customs and Indirect Taxes
This service allows, after registration, to obtain online the permit or certificate mandatory for all import in the European Union of a species of fauna and the flora wild endangered, covered by the CITES Convention.
To request a CITES document, you must first register in thei-CITES application to get a identifier and one personal password which will then allow applications to be submitted online.
In addition, the i-CITES application can be used to populate your import notifications and print, before presenting them to the Customs office upon your entry into the EU for validation and visa.
It is also a search tool (without registration required for this function). It provides access to a database that gathers all the regulations, with a search by species name (taxonomy) or by country.
