Identification & provenance
Reliable identification and lawful origin are fundamental. A future lot record should include verified identifiers, species, quantity and origin information as relevant.
ORNIS / RESPONSIBLE COLLECTING
Excellence and integrity.
The standards we intend to apply to real listings and international transactions.
CITES & permits
Species and transaction routes must be screened against applicable CITES and EU wildlife-trade rules. Where a certificate or permit is required, a lot may only proceed when the necessary legal conditions are met.
Veterinary requirements
Animal-health requirements, testing, quarantine and current movement restrictions vary by origin and destination. Eligibility requires case-by-case confirmation.
Welfare and transport
Handling, approved carriers, suitable containers and viable routes must be assessed before dispatch. A winning bid alone does not guarantee export.
Accurate descriptions
Photography, sex, age and other assertions should be clearly identified as verified, reported or unavailable. The sample listings shown today are fictional.
IMPORTANTNo shortcuts.
No shortcuts.
No assumptions.
These are planned operating principles, not a statement that any sample bird has been documented, vetted or approved. Actual requirements depend on species, seller entity and importing country, and must be verified before launch and each sale.
