APPLICATION FORM INSTRUCTIONS
The following instructions pertain to U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) permit applications. The General Permit Procedures in 50
CFR 13 address the permitting process. For simplicity, all licenses, permits, registrations, and certificates are referred to as a permit.
If you are an individual, who would be named on the face of the permit, you need to complete the Individual Applicant section of this
application.
If you are an individual seeking permits issued to yourself for activities not associated with your business or institution, you need to
complete the Individual Applicant section as an individual permittee.
If you are an individual associated with a business or institution, and the business or institution’s name would appear on the face of the
permit, you need to complete the Business Applicant section of this application.
If you are a business applying on behalf of an individual, you need to complete the Business Applicant section of this application and
include a limited power of attorney from the person for whom you represent.
A person/entity is qualified to obtain a U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service permit or license when they are "subject to the jurisdiction of the
United States", per 16 USC 1532(13). A foreign person/entity with no permanent physical presence in the United States only qualifies
for an import/export license when they physically enter or exit the U.S. with the wildlife items. The foreign entity is required to designate
a U.S. agent for purposes of record keeping.
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS:
•

An incomplete application may cause delays in processing or may be returned to the applicant. Be sure you are filling in the
appropriate application form for the proposed activity. Items marked with an asterisk (*) are required fields.

•

Print clearly or type in the information. Illegible applications may cause delays.

•

Sign the application. Faxes or copies of the original signature will not be accepted.

•

If you choose to mail your submission, mail the original application to the address listed below or, if applicable, on the attached
address list. We encourage electronic filing in the ePermits system.

•

Keep a copy of your completed application.

•

Please plan ahead. Unless otherwise indicated, allow at least 60 days for your application to be processed, however, some
applications may take longer than 90 days to process (50 CFR 13.11). Longer processing times will be noted on those applications.

•

Applications are processed in the order they are received.

Individual or Business Applicants:
Individual Applicant. Complete if applying as an individual [do not complete this application if applying for Import/Export License (3200-3) or a Designated Port Exception Permit (3-200-2)]:
•

Enter the information requested. Required fields must be completed. This is used to create your profile and consumer information
in the ePermits system. If you do not have an email address, enter not applicable.

•

Doing business as (dba) / Affiliation: The Division of Management Authority (DMA) and the Office of Law Enforcement (OLE) do
not accept doing business as affiliations for individuals seeking permits on behalf of themselves. “Doing business as” affiliations
apply to individuals seeking permits for a business, agency, Tribe, organizational, or institutional affiliation directly related to the
activity requested in the application. For example, a taxidermist is an individual whose business can directly relate to the requested
activity of exporting taxidermy (dba relevant permit); however, said taxidermist should not apply as a business for permits to nonbusiness related travel with their pet exotic parrot (dba is not relevant to the permit; complete the Business Applicant section).

the ePermits system. If you do not have an email address, enter not applicable.

•

If you are applying on behalf of a client, a document evidencing power of attorney must be included with the application.

•

Principal Officer is the person in charge of the listed business, corporation, public agency, Tribe, or institution. The principal
officer is the person responsible for the application and any permitted activities. Often the principal officer is a Director or President.

•

The Contact is the person at the business, corporation, public agency, or institution who will be available to answer questions
about the application or permitted activities. Often this is the preparer of the application. Each person that is associated with the
business that would need to access the business account needs to create their own contact in the ePermits system.

Application processing fee:
•

An application processing fee is required at the time of application, unless exempted under 50 CFR 13. The application processing
fee is assessed to partially cover the cost of processing a request. The fee does not guarantee the issuance of a permit, nor
will fees be refunded for applications for which processing has begun. Checks or money orders must be for the exact
amount for each application submitted. If you are making more than one request, you must submit a separate payment
for each request, otherwise your application will be returned.

•

Documentation of fee exempt status is not required for applications submitted by Federal, Tribal, State, or local
government agencies; but must be supplied by those applicants acting on behalf of such agencies. Such applications
must include a letter on agency letterhead and signed by the head of the unit of government for which the applicant is acting on
behalf, confirming that the applicant will be carrying out the permitted activity for the agency.

CERTIFICATION:
•

The individual identified in the Individual Applicant Section, the principal officer named in the Business Applicant Section, or person
with a valid power of attorney (documentation must be included in the application) must sign and date the application. This
signature legally binds the applicant to the statement of certification. You are certifying that you have read and understand the
regulations that apply to the permit. You are also certifying that all information included in the application is true to the best of your
knowledge. Be sure to read the statement and re-read the application and your answers before signing.

This application covers a wide range of CITES and/or ESA-listed animals, whether live or dead. Please check to
determine whether the species is regulated under CITES, when the species was listed, and if any exemptions apply to
your requested activity (no CITES permit required). Additionally, determine whether the species is regulated under the
ESA when the species was listed, and if any exemptions apply to your requested activity (no ESA authorization required).
A Traveling Exhibition Certificate (Resolution Conf. 12.3 (Rev. CoP13)) applies only to an animal or non-living
specimens that qualifies as pre-Convention 1 or Bred in Captivity 2 as defined in Resolution Conf. 10.16 (Rev.). A CITES
certificate may be issued up to 3 years for a single animal or a group of (non-living) specimens.
Use this form for exports/re-exports and re-import for:
•

Temporary travel (export and re-import) to exhibit animals, museum exhibitions, or other traveling exhibitions where
specimens do not change ownership (e.g., not being bought or sold while outside the United States).

This form should NOT be used for:
•

Transferring ownership or offering specimens for sale outside the United States: submit Form 3-200-23 (preConvention specimens) or Form 3-200-37d (ESA/CITES specimens).

•

Individuals or Orchestras traveling with musical instruments; submit Form 3-200-88 (Musical Instrument Certificate).

NOTE: One-time shipments for specimens that do not qualify for a traveling exhibition certificate as described
above.
If you are applying on behalf of a client, provide Power of Attorney documentation authorizing you to act on
behalf of the client.

This application can be used to request:

☐ New Allows multiple cross-border movements with your non-commercial exhibition containing CITES or ESA-listed
species throughout the validity of the certificate. Specimens must qualify as bred-in-captivity under Resolution Conf.
10.16 (Rev), artificially propagated under Resolution Conf. 11.15 (Rev. CoP 18) or pre-Convention to apply for a
traveling exhibition certificate. Items must return to the United States at the end of the valid date and when renewing.
☐ Amend Allows you to amend a currently valid traveling exhibition certificate. You must complete the relevant

sections within the application (3-200-52 may not be used to amend or renew this certificate), providing information
on any changes to the quantity, your facility, operations, or species for the animals or non-living specimens that you
wish to export.

☐ Re-issue or amend and re-issue Allows you to renew your traveling exhibition certificate that has or will soon

expire. You must complete relevant sections within the application (3-200-52 may not be used to amend or reissue
