What is Dip and Pack?

Dip and Pack is the Sterilizing process necessary to export any raw animal part across international borders.

In South Africa, the Department of Economic Affairs and Environmental Tourism, also known as DEAET, regulate this process. Further, all processes are in accordance with requirements of the US Fish and Wildlife.

The physical process of Dip and Pack entails the removal of all flesh and tissue from skulls, horns and bones, and the drying and bleaching of said skulls and bones.

All skins are dried, cleaned, and treated with antibacterial powders to ensure that you trophy animal arrives at the Taxidermist in a dry, and pest free condition.
Can I clear my own trophies when they arrive at port of entry?

If you live close to one of these ports of entry, you can go there in person and clear your own trophies. Customs documentation will need to be filled out and you have to clear them by yourself with the relevant departments of Agriculture, Conservation and the Centres for Disease Control. However, most hunters either don't live close to a port of entry or do not wish to deal with the bureaucracy of clearing their own trophies. This is where a customs clearing agent is of great use.

Should you make use of one of our recommended shipping agents, they will assist you in choosing an appropriate clearing agent if you do not already have a relationship with one.
What is a Customs Clearing Agent?

A customs clearing agents, or customs brokers, are licensed individuals or companies whose main business is clearing products through Customs for clients. There are lots of such companies out there, but only a few that intimately know the regulations regarding hunting trophies.
Do I have to use Customs Brokers?

Absolutely not. Just as you can do your own taxes or defend yourself in court, you do not have to hire a trained professional. But common sense suggests that you should. There are lots of things you can legally do yourself. However, it requires pouring through reams of government information and paperwork to make sure you get it right, and there is still a big chance you may make a mistake. If you count your time as anything, it is money well spent to use an expert to help with importation.
How much should my trophies be insured for?

SCI publish trophy insurance values annually. This (high) value takes into account the physical taxidermy and shipping bill, as well as the cost of the hunt, but this is only used as a guideline. The client can make the decision to insure the individual trophies for a higher or lesser value. A once off premium of approximately 1% of the insured value is payable before shipping the trophies.
