Policy on hunting trophies and products under CITES Appendix 1
As a signatory to the Buckingham Palace Declaration (BPD) and operating in compliance with the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES), as well as the IATA Live Animals Regulations (LAR), Emirates has a zero-tolerance policy on the carriage of banned species, hunting trophies or any product associated with illegal wildlife trade.
We will not accept the following for carriage:
1. Products and parts of endangered animals, including hunting trophies, and plants (listed in CITES Appendix I)
2. Hunting trophies of elephants, rhinoceros, lions, and tigers
A complete list of restricted wildlife shipments can be found in the IATA Live Animals Regulations (LAR) manual (under the Emirates Operator Variations).
Emirates proudly holds the IATA Illegal Wildlife Trade (IWT) certification, underscoring our stance on a zero-tolerance policy towards the illegal trade of wildlife and wildlife products worldwide.
