import permits

Import permits are official authorizations issued by a government that allow individuals or companies to bring specific goods into a country. They ensure that imports meet safety, health, security, and regulatory standards. Obtaining an import permit is often a necessary step before shipping or receiving certain items, especially controlled or sensitive products like pharmaceuticals, chemicals, or endangered species. These permits help governments monitor and control what enters their borders, protecting public health, safety, and the environment, while facilitating legitimate trade.
