Queen conch (Strombus gigas) is listed under CITES Appendix II, so each commercial shipment must be accompanied by a valid CITES export permit issued by the competent authority of the exporting country. US Fish & Wildlife Service may inspect documentation at the port of entry, and shipments lacking proper permits are subject to seizure.
Queen conch is native to the shallow tropical waters of the Caribbean and Gulf of Mexico, making Nicaragua, Honduras, Belize, and the island territories the primary harvest zones. Quota management and CITES export allocations by country further shape which nations can legally export commercially significant volumes in any given year.
