Thread: Travelling back to NZ from Canada with trophy

I would guess the cost would be calculated by the airline like excess luggage ? I'm sure that would be cheaper than what shipping agents charge. Whether you can bring back with you might depend on whether Canadian permits, and / or Cites permits are required for export. Often, any permits have to ship with the goods. Might pay to enquire before you rock up to the airport with trophy in hand. Should it all work out and you arrive in NZ with trophies I think MPI are likely to have them sent for fumigation before releasing to you.
