New Cites Regulations For All Rosewood Species

[Guest]

A new regulation takes effect on January 2, 2017 that calls for documentation when shipping instruments internationally that contain any amount of any kind of rosewood or certain types of bubinga.

 

It does not apply to instruments shipped within the borders of your country or instruments carried for personal use while traveling internationally [unless they contain more than 22 lbs. (10 kg) of the regulated woods].

 

This is a developing story, with details emerging as government agencies figure out how to create processes around the new requirements. To what degree they are enforced remains to be seen.

 

Here’s what we know so far.

For dealers and sellers:

 

When shipping musical instruments that include any amount (i.e. fingerboard, back, sides, binding) of Dalbergia or the other newly regulated woods out of your country as part of a commercial transaction, each one must be accompanied by a CITES re-export certificate.

 

Even if the instrument was made with Dalbergia or the other regulated woods that were acquired before January 2, 2017 - such as a used or vintage instrument - it still must be accompanied by a CITES certificate and marked pre-convention when shipping internationally.

 

For example, a seller in Nashville looking to ship her 2013 Martin 000-28 with East Indian rosewood back and sides to a buyer in Canada must apply for a re-export certificate, pay the application fee, receive the certificate, and include that document with the guitar when shipping.

dar de ce???

Si industria asta de instrumente muzicale a devenit un consumerism fanatic fara nici o legatura cu muzica. Dar nu stiu daca  reglementarile astea o sa ajute cu ceva.

I call BS. Daca era numai asta, nu mai puneau taxa de eliberare a certificatului pt 500g de palisandru.

asta cu 500g e din cauza formularii legislatiei cel mai probabil. tinand cont, cum zicea si chelu din video, ca un ukulele ar duce la 300 de euro si autoritatile ar fi inundate de chitaristi in UE si SUA, probabil se va schimba putin legislatia. I wouldn't worry about it too much.

 

e de rau pentru industria de chitare acustice
