Madagascar - U.S. Export ControlsMadagascar - U.S. Export Controls
There is no U.S. export control specifically related to Madagascar. However, companies should ensure that imports of flora or fauna from Madagascar to the United States adhere to the provisions of the Lacey Act, which does not allow the import, export, transport, sale, receipt or purchase of plant materials taken, possessed, transported, or sold in violation of U.S. or foreign laws. American law enforcement officials took action in 2010 against companies that imported rosewood that had been illegally felled in Madagascar.
