Note: Endangered species (CITES)

Swiss WorldCargo complies with the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES) when it comes to the transportation of animals and has a ban in place on animal trophies as per CITES Appendix I (http://www.cites.org/).

In order to further help eliminate illegal trade and transportation of hunting trophies and save wildlife heritage, since 1 June 2015, we have extended the ban to the transportation of lion trophies as well as lion bones and body parts (CITES Appendix II). Additionally, shark fins, frogs, toads and leg thereof for consumption purposes are also banned on SWISS flights. SWISS hopes these bans will finally contribute to stopping this cruel practice.
