[Nhcoll-l] No CITES imports from the following countries

[Dirk Neumann]

Dear Ellen,

thanks for keeping us updated about latest changes!

Just want to add that "Bosnia" AND "Herzegovina" is one country (not two 
as one could judge from the list).

However, the country is subdivided in two political entities, the 
Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina (covering 51%, capital Sarajevo, 
official capital of Bosnia and Herzegovina) and  the Republika Srpska 
(covering 49%, capital Banja Luka) for the Serbian part of the country.

For im- exports to the Serbian part additional paperwork might be 
necessary or required.

Kind regards
Dirk
