The export of specific Inuit sculpture from Canada to other components of the globe including the United States does have some restrictions. In order to lessen harvesting of marine animals such as whales and walruses, the United States Congress passed the Marine Mammal Protection Act in 1972. It was later modified in 1981 and a unique section (101) of the act was created to exclude Eskimo Inuit and other aboriginals living in the state of Alaska. Section 101 permitted Alaskan Natives to continue their traditions of hunting marine mammals for food and utilizing components of such animals as raw components in the making of clothes, crafts and artwork.

The act tends to make it illegal for American citizens to import any ivory or whalebone from outside the United States. Consequently, American citizens would not be allowed to obtain any artwork containing ivory or whalebone from Canada and have it brought or shipped back to the United States. Nonetheless, the act as it stands makes it possible for American citizens to acquire comparable artwork from Alaska because it is portion of the United States. The export of such artwork developed from marine mammals from the United States to Canada is not permitted.

Inuit sculpture containing whalebone, walrus or narwal tusks (each considered ivory) are restricted from import and export. Nonetheless, Inuit sculpture containing caribou antler is permitted considering that caribou is not a marine mammal and as a result does not fall below this act.

Exporting Inuit sculpture containing whalebone or ivory from Canada to other international destinations will depend on each and every specific country as every has its own particular regulations. Fines or penalties for importing or exporting illegal products can be extremely serious.

Fortunately, other types of Inuit art such as stone or antler carvings and prints are not only capable to be exported across the border, but are in fact duty cost-free. --------------------------- Bloco de notas
