Live Animals
Requirements¶
Shipper’s certification for Live Animals¶
The shipper’s certification for Live Animals is an essential document required to transport live animals. The requirements are described in the Live Animals Regulation as published by IATA.
CITES ePermit¶
The CITES permit is a the key instrument to control the trade in the species it protects. An extensive work has been done in order to define the requirements for the CITES ePermit, including the ePermit Core Component Data Model V2.0. The details of the ePermit and the associated data model are in the “CITES electronic permitting toolkit Version 2.0” document that can be found here.
Chosen approach¶
Requirements have shown that the data model requires new objects to capture the specific information for Live Animals. These objects are: - PieceLiveAnimals object, subtype of the Piece class containing data specific for Live Animals - EPermitConsignement object to reflect the pieces (Animals) contained in a eCITES permit - LiveAnimalsEpermit object to reflect the eCITES permit document requirements and allow for its creation from the ONE Record data model - EpermitSignature object to take into account Signature requirements in the eCITES permit, mainly identifying the signatory and recording the date of signature
The mapping with the CITES ePermit data model has been made to ensure all required information are available, it is available in details in the Excel version of the data model on GitHub in the document IATA-1R-DataModel-LiveAnimalsIntegration Nov 2020.
