As a rule, Guatemala requires licences to import products described in this notification, such as products subject to import quotas, as notified in Table MA.2 and document G/AG/2; wild flora and fauna; (...) plants and animals; refrigerants, hydrocarbons, radioisotopes; and restricted items. The import licensing regimes in force seek to maintain control over the flow of products in order to guarantee compliance with Guatemala's WTO obligations, and to exercise control over products that are considered hazardous; that may have implications for national security; or that must be shown not to endanger human and animal life and health or the environment. No. Import licensing is not intended to restrict either the quantity or the value of imports, except for goods whose importation is prohibited by law, such as (...) radioactive material and endangered species of wild fauna and flora (Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES)).
