I am seeking information about bringing fossils into Australia after
travelling overseas. If anyone can suggest helpful websites or
someone who might be of assistance I would appreciate it. In early
August I will be flying to Los Angeles and London. I hope to purchase
fossils from a dealer in LA(visited previously), fly to UK and collect
ammonites around Lyme Regis and possibly vertebrate specimens at Aust
Cliffs. I will then return to Australia by air.

I would appreciate any information about what I can or cannot
transport via the UK with me and bring back to Australia, whether I
require a permit, and any other relevant information. It would be a
pity to spend time and money collecting good fossils only to have them
confiscated by customs or quarantine. Thanks - Janette Sutton
