with any applicable value added tax.

001€ over + VAT amounting to 27.6% (all taxes included). Books

# An appointment is required to see the piece
~ This lot contains animal materials. Import restrictions are to
be expected and must be considered.
The legislator imposes strict rules for the commercial use of inert
animal species. The international regulations of March 3, 1973 (CITES)
requires for different annexes a correlation between the specimen and
the documentation proving the origins to be lawful. This regulation
transcribed in European Community law (Annexes A/B/C) in Rule
338/97 of 9/12/1996 permits commercial use of regulated specimens
(CITES) upon presentation of documentation proving lawful origin;
these documents for this variation are as follows:
• For Annex A: C/C provided outlining the specimen’s history (for
specimens of recent date)
• For Annex B: Bird specimens are either banded or equipped with
transponders, and are accompanied by documents of licit origin. The
auction’s sale record must be conserved as it contains the complete
history of every specimen.
All cases concerning specimens of recent date that are protected
under the French Environmental Code and which were born and
raised in captivity are permitted by the derogation clause AM of
14/07/2006. As such, they can be used commercially provided
traceability between the specimen and the documentation proving
licit origins. Other specimen cases dating prior to clause AM of
21/07/2015 can, due to this fact, be used commercially. Specimens
dating before 1947 included in this auction sale benefit from clause
2M of the derogatory Rule 228/97 of 9/12/1996, permitting their use
for trade. However, exporting them outside of the EU them requires
a pre-CITES Convention agreement.
For huntable species of the European continent and elsewhere,
commercial use is allowed under certain conditions. Domesticated
species (D) included in this auction sale are free for trade. Old
specimens from before the Convention (i.e. before 1975) comply with
the conditions of the AM of 23/12/2011 and, as such, are free for trade.
The other specimens in this auction sale are not subject to NR
regulations and are free for commercial use and trade. The auction
record will substantiate their licit origin.
To leave the EU, with regards to the Annexes I/A, II/B et III/C, a CITES
re-export document at the expense of the acquirer will be necessary.
