<p>[QUOTE=&quot;MaJa, post: 1940094, member: 14649&quot;]The trade in ivory is regualted by the CITES-agreement from 1973 and applies worldwide (there are a handful of smaller countries that have not signed the agreement). Only historic, antique pieces of ivory or containing ivory may be sold/traded/exported. The exact cut-off date is June 01, 1947. In order to sell an ivory piece you need a certificate confirming that the ivory is older than 1947. Rules and regulations vary a bit from country to country regarding ivory regarding the period 1947-1990, but are very restrictive. All trade in ivory has been banned in 1990 (again with 3-4 exceptions). Some countries have adopted even stricter rules, among them the UK: <a href="https://www.antiquestradegazette.co...sent-from-queen-to-become-the-ivory-act-2018/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.antiquestradegazette.co...sent-from-queen-to-become-the-ivory-act-2018/" rel="nofollow">https://www.antiquestradegazette.co...sent-from-queen-to-become-the-ivory-act-2018/</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
