Can I bring Ducks or Doves back home? |

Yes, however going through U.S. Customs with them can be a
problem. Sometimes resulting in having to dispose of them prior
to re-entering the country. If you still desire to attempt to
bring some home, be sure to bring a cooler with you. |

As many as you like will be prepared for you to eat. The rest
are given away to the birdboys and local families. They are not
wasted. |

Is Argentina a safe place? |
|
The government has recently gone through changes in an effort to
stabilize the economy. The efforts appear to be working.

Democracy. At no times on my trips have I felt unsafe. However

V.I.P. – The U.S. Customs agents will require that you have a
FORM CF-4457 completed prior to your departure. It lists a
description of your guns along with the serial numbers. ( Don’t
worry, your not registering them …this is a single copy form and
you will have the only copy of it ). This form proves that you
owned these guns when you left the country. It will prevent you
from paying duties on their value upon re-entering the U.S.A.
You can do this at any U.S. Customs office prior to your
departure. |
