Most exotic birds, such as cockatoos, macaws, and parrots, are protected by national and international laws or treaties, including the Convention on the International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES), the U.S. Wild Bird Conservation Act (WBCA), and the U.S. Endangered Species Act (ESA). To learn more go to –CITES First lookup your birds scientific name with a google search – then you can check here to see if your bird is a listed species – Species+ (speciesplus.net)

2. These laws protect wildlife that is threatened by factors such as overexploitation and habitat loss. As a pet owner, your compliance with regulations helps conserve these species and distinguish lawful activities as a pet owner from harmful, illegal activities. Your bird should have a microchip or ring band with a number as a form of identification. For most countries the bird must be isolated under supervision for 30 days prior to travel, and often require parasite treatments or testing for avian diseases.  For pet birds subject to CITES regulations it takes 3-4 months to get US CITES Export Permit, another 30 days for corresponding destination country CITES import permit.  You need to plan at least 5 months in advance of planned trip.  THERE IS NO EXPEDITED OPTION FOR THE PERMIT ON US SIDE. EU & UK ONLY – Please note for planning purposes – you or a representative MUST depart from the SAME PORT on the SAME day from the US to EU/UK.  You can ONLY depart from designated FWS Ports – for a complete list of ports – see Wildlife Trade – Designated Ports.pdf | FWS.gov  FREE QUOTE       This is what the bird shipping process Usually looks like Our Service includes                                                                                                           All arrangements and paperwork for the airlines / review pet documents, assist with veterinary work, etc. Filing for any CITES permits in the USA for export (for any bird other than a cockatiel or budgie parakeet) – there is not guarantee that USFW will issue a CITES after application  An agent to collect and deliver  your pet to the airport   (or in some cases meet you at the airport)
