Details

We have produced some communication materials to help ivory owners, businesses, and the public understand the UK wide ivory ban, which came into force on 6 June 2022.

The bundle includes PDF files for retailers to download, print and display in stores, and image files that may be more suitable for use online.

There are also guidance cards to support ivory owners and business employees to understand the important points of the act and help explain it to others, including the process for registering for exemptions.

These materials are all © Crown copyright 2022 but you may reuse them free of charge in any format or medium, under the terms of the Open Government Licence v.3.
