Hello everyone
RES is banned to import to any EU member country , so is there any way to import a RES AS A PET to an EU country?
is there any chance to get an import permit document? im going to romania
thanks

If they're banned (which I've read they are), then they're banned. Unfortunately, even though your RES is a pet to you, RES are seen as being an invasive species.

thanks for ur reply
yeah but the thing that is confusing me is that i asked Romania's Embassy about it and they didnt say anything about EU Banning , he said there is no any problem and i just need a health Certification
i think i need to go there and ask these questions Face to face so i know whats gonna happen
thanks

Keep a record of who you talk to... names, phone numbers, emails, dates, subject, etc. There could be conflicting information, so you'll need a trail you can reference.
