BellamyBlake Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 Legal collection and legal export are different concerns. It may have been legally collected. I would advise you obtain proof of that. Does Thailand allow the export of its fossils? Do they differentiate between exporting fossils found in the nation before or after the law came into force? There are nations that allow the collection of fossils and prohibit their export. I'm not sure if Thailand is one of those, but it's worth checking.
