[Coral-List] Licensing for coral tissue sample for importing into the UK

[Sarah Frias-Torres]

Nikki,
You will also need to follow The Nagoya Protocol.
This protocol is focused on access to genetic resources and the fair and equitable sharing of benefits arising from their utilization to the Convention on Biological Diversity.

Subject: [Coral-List] Licensing for coral tissue sample for importing into the UK

Hi,
I hope someone can provide advice. I am hoping to import small coral samples into the UK for genetic analysis. Other than CITES permits for protected species, is there any other licensing requirement required?
