[Nhcoll-l] How to renew or confirm collection CITES registration?

[Kevin Winker]

No, it is not automatic. And they want your original permit back with the
renewal application, as I recall. This is the kind of permit to keep in a
secure location in the front office under custodianship of someone with
deep institutional memory. Use copies elsewhere. I think our last renewal
was a 10-yr permit.

Best, K.
