Last updated: April 2026 dataClassified under a single US tariff line (0106390100), live birds not elsewhere specified — including parrots, finches, and other ornamental or avicultural species — are subject to USDA APHIS import permits and mandatory quarantine to guard against exotic Newcastle disease and avian influenza. Many parrot and raptor species are also regulated under CITES, requiring valid export documentation from the country of origin. The Wild Bird Conservation Act further restricts commercial imports of CITES-listed exotic bird species, limiting trade to approved cooperative breeding programs and scientific institutions.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
The Wild Bird Conservation Act generally prohibits commercial imports of CITES-listed exotic bird species unless the shipment qualifies for a specific exemption — such as approved cooperative breeding programs, personal pets, or scientific research. Importers must apply to the US Fish & Wildlife Service for an exemption permit before shipment.
USDA APHIS requires that most imported live birds undergo quarantine at a USDA-approved facility for a minimum period to test for avian influenza and exotic Newcastle disease. The length and conditions of quarantine vary by species and country of origin; importers should confirm current requirements with APHIS well in advance of shipment.
