import permits

Foreign goods licenses

Import permits are official documents authorizing the legal importation of specific goods into a country.

Governments require them for controlled items—certain foods, plants, animals, medications, weapons, or endangered species products—to enforce safety standards, quarantine regulations, or trade restrictions.
