    you would need cites paper work your best bet is contacting a breeder that already does export

    It can be done however there will be a minimum purchase, there will aslo be an additional $500 or more for CITIES and shipping, in other word if might get very expensive just for one snake depending on the type of snake you are looking for.

    Many of the larger US and Canadian breeders ship internationally all the time. You may have to pay import fees, and you'll definitely have to pay the breeder's fees for filing CITES paperwork for export out of the US. Some of the mid-level breeders in the US also ship internationally.

    Some that I'm aware of shipping internationally are Exotics By Nature, NERD, BHB, VPI, 8BallPythons, Bailey Reptiles (I think), The Snake Keeper, Greg Graziani, etc.

    8 Ball Pythons is no longer shipping internationally. Sorry about that. But I know that everyone else listed above will be more than happy to help out with international orders! :salute:

    Thanks for thinking about me though Robin. :) :love:

    compare to US, the price is quite expensive in HK, is like double the price in US, but i think is not worth if i just buy few snakes from US.

    One CITES certificate can cover many animals from a single breeder. So it's not an additional $500 per snake if you're buying more than one.
