How To Sell Or Buy Ivory?

Is it legal to buy or trade-sell ivory tusks?

  • Answer:

    It makes a difference what kind of ivory it is, where it originated, how old it is, where and when it was imported. It is important to have documentation for your ivory if you intend to sell it or travel with it. Under current US Federal laws, you may own, buy, sell, or trade ivory that is over 100 years old within your state. Because state laws vary - buying, selling, trading, or even traveling with ivory intrastate might be illegal. International importing and/or exporting is complicated, requires complex documentation, is only legal for ivory over 100 years old, and might not be permitted with certain countries.
