Carrying that instrument across international borders that enforce
those regulations will be difficult, if not impossible.

Hello,
I own a vihuela made by Luciano Faria in 2006. Unfortunately, its

regulations at the time I bought it.
Wow. I understand the reason for the regulations, but this
is certainly unfortunate. If you believe that the wood was
obtained legally, what sort of risk are you exposing yourself
to if you never get the CITES certificate but use the lute
anyway?
