If an authorized officer reasonably suspects that a person has committed, is committing or is about to commit any other offence under this Ordinance, he may arrest the person without warrant only in circumstances where it appears to the authorized officer that service of a summons is impracticable because—
the name of the person is unknown to, and cannot be readily ascertained by, that officer;
that officer has reasonable grounds for doubting whether a name given by the person as his name, when required to do so under section 36, is his real name;
the person has failed to give a satisfactory address for service, when required to do so under section 36; or
that officer has reasonable grounds for doubting whether an address given by the person, when required to do so under section 36, is a satisfactory address for service.

to be returned to the person from whom it was seized or to its owner; or
to be forfeited to the Government.
If a person is convicted of an offence under Part 2 or 3, any specimen of a scheduled species seized under section 34(1) in connection with the offence, or any proceeds of sale of the specimen if already sold under section 35, shall, without order, be forfeited to the Government.
If an offence is prosecuted under Part 2 or 3 and no defendant in the proceedings is convicted of the offence, the court or magistrate may order any thing seized under section 34(1) in respect of which the prosecution was brought, or any proceeds of sale of that thing—
to be returned to the person from whom it was seized or to its owner; or

to be returned to the person from whom it was seized or to its owner; or
to be forfeited to the Government.
If a thing has been seized under section 34(1) but no prosecution for an offence under Part 2 or 3 or section 29 or 44 has been brought in respect of that thing, an authorized officer may apply to the court or magistrate for an order in respect of that thing or any proceeds of sale of that thing.
On an application under subsection (1), the court or magistrate may order the thing concerned or any proceeds of sale of that thing—
to be returned to the person from whom it was seized or to its owner; or
to be forfeited to the Government.
If a thing seized under section 34(1)—

A person commits an offence if he claims, represents or holds out, whether by advertisement or in any other way, that a thing is a specimen of a scheduled species, without any belief in the truth of the claim, representation or holding out.
A person who commits an offence under subsection (1) or (2) is liable on conviction to a fine at level 6 and to imprisonment for 6 months.
Except as provided in subsection (3)—
no information on the identity of an informer relating to an offence under this Ordinance shall be admitted in evidence in any civil or criminal proceedings; and
a witness in any civil or criminal proceedings is not obliged or permitted—
to disclose the name or address of any informer who has given information to the Director, any authorized officer or the police with respect to an offence under this Ordinance, or the name or address of any person who has assisted the Director, any authorized officer or the police in any way with respect to such an offence; or
to answer any question if the answer would lead, or would tend to lead, to discovery of the name or address of such informer or person,
if, in either case, the informer or the person is not himself a witness in such proceedings.
If any books, documents or papers that are in evidence or liable to inspection in any civil or criminal proceedings contain an entry in which an informer or person referred to in subsection (1)(b)(i) is named or described or that might lead to his discovery, the court or magistrate shall cause all such passages to be concealed from view or to be obliterated so far as may be necessary to protect the informer or the person, as the case may be, from discovery.

in any proceedings for an offence under this Ordinance the court or magistrate, after full inquiry into the case, is satisfied that an informer made a material statement that the informer knew or believed to be false or did not believe to be true; or
in any other proceedings the court or magistrate is of opinion that justice cannot be fully done between the parties concerned without disclosure of the name of an informer or of a person who has assisted the Director, any authorized officer or the police,

Species included in the Appendices are referred to—
by the name of the species; or
as being all of the species included in a higher taxon or designated part in that taxon.
The abbreviation “spp.” is used to denote all species of a higher taxon.
Other references to taxa higher than species are for the purposes of information or classification only. Common names in English, if known, are included within angle brackets (< >) after scientific names in the English text of this Ordinance. Common names in Chinese or Chinese translations of scientific names, if known, are included within angle brackets (< >) after scientific names in the Chinese text of this Ordinance.

This Schedule sets out, with or without modification, the relevant parts of Convention instruments that have the force of law in Hong Kong.
Hybrid animals that have in their recent lineage one or more specimens of species included in Appendix I or Appendix II shall be subject to the provisions of this Ordinance just as if they were full species, even if the hybrid concerned is not specifically included in the Appendices.
If at least one of the animals in the recent lineage is of a species included in Appendix I, the hybrids shall be treated as specimens of species included in Appendix I (and shall be eligible for the exemptions of Article VII of the Convention when applicable).
If at least one of the animals in the recent lineage is of a species included in Appendix II, and there are no specimens of an Appendix I species in such lineage, the hybrids shall be treated as specimens of species included in Appendix II.
(Amended L.N. 114 of 2018; L.N. 22 of 2021)
The following definitions for terms are used—
The term “artificially propagated” shall be interpreted to refer to plant specimens—
grown under controlled conditions; and
grown from seeds, cuttings, divisions, callus tissues or other plant tissues, spores or other propagules that either are exempt or have been derived from cultivated parental stock.
Plants grown from cuttings or divisions shall be considered to be artificially propagated only if the traded specimens do not contain any material collected from the wild.
For the populations of Appendix I species, despite paragraphs 2 and 3 of this item, specimens are to be treated as artificially propagated if, for the taxon involved— (Amended L.N. 22 of 2021)
establishment of a cultivated parental stock presents significant difficulties in practice because specimens take a long time to reach reproductive age, as for many tree species;
the propagules are collected from the wild and grown under controlled conditions within a range state, which must also be the place of origin of the propagules;
the relevant authority of that range state has determined that the collection of propagules was legal and consistent with relevant domestic laws for the protection and conservation of the species; and
the relevant authority of that range state has determined that—
collection of the propagules was in a manner not detrimental to the survival of the species in the wild and in accordance with Resolution Conf. 16.7 (Rev. CoP17) on non-detrimental findings; and
allowing trade in such specimens has a positive effect on the conservation of wild populations;
at a minimum, to comply with subparagraph (a)(iv)(A) and (B) above—
collection of propagules for this purpose is limited in such a manner such as to allow regeneration of the wild population;
a portion of the plants produced under such circumstances is used to establish plantations to serve as cultivated parental stock in the future and become an additional source of propagules and thus reduce or eliminate the need to collect propagules from the wild; and (Amended L.N.36 of 2011)
if appropriate, a portion of the plants produced under such circumstances is used for replanting in the wild, to enhance recovery of existing populations or to re-establish populations that have been extirpated; and
in the case of operations propagating Appendix I species for commercial purposes under such conditions they are registered with the Secretariat. (Amended L.N. 22 of 2021)
Grafted plants shall be recognized as artificially propagated only when both the root-stock and the graft have been taken from specimens that have been artificially propagated and grafted specimens consisting of taxa from different Appendices shall be treated as specimens of the taxon included in the more restrictive Appendix.
Hybrids shall be subject to the provisions of this Ordinance even though not specifically included in the Appendices if one or both of their parents are of taxa included in the Appendices, unless the hybrids are excluded by a specific annotation in Appendix II or Appendix III.
Regarding artificially propagated hybrids—
any plant species or other taxa listed in Appendix I shall be annotated in accordance with Article XV of the Convention if the provisions of this Ordinance relevant to Appendix I are to apply to artificially propagated hybrids derived from such species or taxa;
if a plant species or other taxon listed in Appendix I is annotated, an export permit or re-export certificate shall be required for trade in specimens of all artificially propagated hybrids derived from it; but
artificially propagated hybrids derived from one or more unannotated Appendix I species or other taxa shall be treated as being included in Appendix II and entitled therefore to all exemptions applicable to artificially propagated specimens of species listed in Appendix II.
Flasked seedlings of orchid species listed in Appendix I obtained in vitro, in solid or liquid media, and transported in sterile containers, shall not be considered as specimens of a scheduled species for the purposes of this Ordinance if they have been artificially propagated.
For specimens of animal species bred in captivity—
The definition provided below shall apply to the specimens bred in captivity of species included in the Appendices, whether or not they were bred for commercial purposes.
The term “bred in captivity” shall be interpreted to refer only to specimens born or otherwise produced in a controlled environment, and shall apply only if—
the parents mated or gametes were otherwise transferred in a controlled environment, if reproduction is sexual, or the parents were in a controlled environment when development of the offspring began, if reproduction is asexual; and
the breeding stock, to the satisfaction of the competent government authorities of the exporting place—
was established in accordance with the provisions of the Convention and relevant domestic laws and in a manner not detrimental to the survival of the species in the wild;
is maintained without the introduction of specimens from the wild, except for the occasional addition of animals, eggs or gametes, in accordance with the provisions of the Convention and relevant domestic laws and in a manner not detrimental to the survival of the species in the wild—
to prevent or alleviate deleterious inbreeding, with the magnitude of such addition determined by the need for new genetic material; or
to dispose of confiscated animals; or
exceptionally, for use as breeding stock; and
has produced offspring of second generation (F2) or subsequent generation (F3, F4, etc.) in a controlled environment; or is managed in a manner that has been demonstrated to be capable of reliably producing second-generation offspring in a controlled environment.
A specimen bred in captivity shall be marked in accordance with the provisions on marking in the Resolutions adopted by the Conference of the Parties and the type and number of the mark shall be indicated on any Convention certifying document issued in respect of the specimen.
The term “readily recognizable part or derivative” shall be interpreted to include any specimen which appears from an accompanying document, the packaging or a mark or label, or from any other circumstances, to be a part or derivative of an animal or plant of a species included in the Appendices, unless such part or derivative is specifically exempted from the provisions of this Ordinance.
Coral sand and coral fragments shall not be considered as specimens of a scheduled species for the purposes of this Ordinance.
The following are not specimens of a scheduled species for the purposes of this Ordinance—
naturally excreted urine;
naturally excreted faeces;
naturally excreted ambergris. (Added L.N. 98 of 2014)
In this Schedule—
(Added L.N. 22 of 2021)
The term “assisted production” is to be interpreted to refer to a way of producing a plant specimen that—
is not artificially propagated; and
is considered not to be wild because it is propagated or planted in an environment with some level of human intervention for the purpose of plant production. (Added L.N. 22 of 2021)
Propagation material used to produce plant specimens from assisted production can be derived from—
plant material that is exempt from the Convention;
artificially propagated plants;
plants grown in an environment with some level of human intervention; or
plant material collected sustainably from wild populations in accordance with the Convention and relevant domestic laws and in a manner not detrimental to the survival of the species in the wild. (Added L.N. 22 of 2021)

justification for the omission of any of the aforementioned information.
Subject to paragraph 12 of this Part, the provisions of Article III, paragraph 3, Article IV, paragraph 4, Article V, paragraph 3, and Article VI, paragraph 2, of the Convention shall be understood to mean that an export permit or re-export certificate shall be valid for a period of no more than 6 months from the date on which it was granted and that it shall not be accepted to authorize export, re-export or import except during the period of validity.
A pre-Convention certificate shall also specify—
that the specimen covered by the certificate is pre-Convention; and
the date of acquisition of the specimen.
For the purposes of determining whether a specimen was acquired before the provisions of the Convention applied to the specimen (“pre-Convention”)—
the date from which the provisions of the Convention apply to a specimen shall be the date on which the species concerned was first included in the Appendices to the Convention; and
the date on which a specimen was acquired is—
the date on which the specimen was known to be removed from the wild;
the date on which the specimen was known to be born in captivity or artificially propagated in a controlled environment; or
if the date referred to in sub-subparagraph (i) or (ii) is unknown or cannot be proved, the earliest provable date on which it was first possessed by any person. (Replaced L.N. 98 of 2014)
All pre-Convention certificates shall include either the precise date of acquisition of the specimens concerned or a certification that the specimens were acquired before a specific date, in accordance with paragraph 6(b) above.
The provisions of Article V, paragraph 3, of the Convention shall be understood to mean that a certificate of origin shall be valid for a period of not more than 12 months from the date on which it was granted, and that it shall not be accepted to authorize export or import except during the period of validity.
A phytosanitary certificate used as a certificate of artificial propagation in accordance with Article VII, paragraph 5, of the Convention for the purpose of the export of an artificially propagated specimen of an Appendix II species shall include the scientific name of the species and the type and quantity of the specimens covered by the certificate, and bear a stamp, seal or other specific indication stating that the specimens are artificially propagated.
Phytosanitary certificates shall be used exclusively for the purpose of export from the place of artificial propagation of the specimens concerned.
On permits and certificates issued to authorize trade in specimens of hard corals of the genera included in the most recent list of “Coral taxa where identification of genus level is acceptable” maintained by the Secretariat, if the species cannot be readily determined, the specimens may be recorded at the genus level. (Added L.N. 36 of 2011)
On permits and certificates for trade in specimens of coral rock, where the genus cannot be readily determined, the scientific name for the specimens shall be “Scleractinia”.
On permits and certificates for trade in worked specimens of black coral, if the species cannot be readily determined, the specimens may be recorded at the genus level, and if the genus cannot be readily determined, the scientific name for the given specimens is “Antipatharia”. (Added L.N. 36 of 2011)
Raw black coral and live black coral must continue to be identified in trade to species level. (Added L.N. 36 of 2011)

a copy of the permit or certificate as amended in accordance with subparagraph (c) above is sent to the relevant authority of the place of export or re-export, allowing it to amend its annual report, and to the Secretariat.
A permit or certificate issued retrospectively shall not be accepted unless it was issued in accordance with the requirements concerning the retrospective issue of documents under the Convention or any Convention instrument.
Where a permit or certificate has been altered (by rubbing out, scratching out, etc.), modified or crossed out, the alteration, modification or crossing-out shall be authenticated by the stamp and signature of the relevant authority issuing the document.
Where a security stamp is affixed to a permit or certificate, the security stamp shall be cancelled by the stamp or seal and signature of the relevant authority issuing the document.
Permits and certificates shall indicate the scientific name of the species concerned (including subspecies when appropriate), except in the case where—
the Conference of the Parties has agreed that the use of higher taxon names is acceptable;
the relevant authority issuing the permit or certificate can show it is well justified and has communicated the justification to the Secretariat;
