Form 3 200 22 PDF Details

The 3-200-22 form, issued by the Department of the Interior's U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, serves as a crucial Federal Fish and Wildlife Permit Application. Aimed at protecting and managing the international trade and domestic handling of endangered and protected species, this form caters to both individuals and organizations seeking to obtain single-use export permits under either a master file or an annual program file, especially within the provisions of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES). Applicants are required to provide detailed personal or business information, a declaration of past permit holdings, and a certification that all supplied information is complete and accurate. The process emphasizes compliance with specific regulations and imposes a nominal processing fee, underscoring the government's commitment to wildlife preservation. Moreover, the form facilitates the establishment of master files or annual program files, which streamline the issuance of multiple single-use permits, thereby managing the permit process efficiently while ensuring stringent adherence to wildlife protection laws. Applicants are also screened for disqualification factors, such as convictions under significant wildlife protection laws, to maintain the integrity and objectives of conservation efforts.

E. Single-Use Permits Under a Master File or an Annual Program File

This supplemental application is to be used by applicants who have already established a master file or an annual program file for native species. An individual or business can establish a master file or an annual program file, which allows for the issuance of multiple single-use permits, by submitting the appropriate application form (see http://www.fws.gov/international/permits/by-form-number/index.html) for the requested activity or registration. Once a master file or annual program file has been established, the holder may request any number of additional single-use documents based on the materials on file. These single-use permits are essentially identical (other than the permit number) and will contain specific blank spaces, identified on the face of the permit, to be completed by the holder of the master file or annual program file. To find out if your activities may be conducted under a master file or an annual program file and how to establish such a system, please contact the Division of Management Authority (DMA) or visit our web page at http://www.fws.gov/international/permits/.

PROCESSING FEE: $5.00 per permit

Note: If there have been any changes to the activities authorized under your master file or annual program file please contact DMA prior to submitting this application form. Permits generated through the use of this application are based on information in your file. You may not use this form to make changes to activities authorized under your master file or annual program file.

2.What is your Master File or annual program file number? (This number was provided to you in a letter that established your master file or annual program file.)
