Negative List of Government of India

The Ministry of Environment & Forest, Government of India, in 1992 prepared a 'Negative List' of 56 species and banned their export. In 1998 the list was reduced to 29 species. In 2000, the Negative List was appended with a list of 114 species for regulating their wild harvest, by requiring legal procurement certificate from the concerned forest officer to accompany the export consignment.

List of species banned from export unless accompanied by Certificate of Origin from Cultivation.
