COMPLIANCE METHODOLOGY
Compliance Center
Understand how GEKUMI separates scientific-name and regulatory baseline research from buyer, document and shipment-specific review. A baseline record is not shipment approval.
A Baseline Record Is Not Shipment Approval
Species Regulatory Baseline
Scientific name, current baseline record and market context.
Baseline Record AvailableDOES NOT EQUAL
Shipment Approval
Buyer, animal, route, entry point, documents and current authority requirements.
Shipment Review RequiredApproval or acceptance cannot be inferred from a species record alone.
Scientific-Name Review Method
- 01◇
Scientific-Name Review
Check the accepted scientific name and relevant synonym or taxonomy context.
Review Required - 02◇
Market Baseline Review
Review the Japan or Korea destination context for the identified taxon.
Review Required - 03◇
Trade-Control Review
Review CITES and other current control layers where applicable.
Review Required - 04◇
Shipment-Specific Review
Review buyer, route, documents and current requirements together.
Shipment Review Required
Market Preparation
JP
Japan Trade Preparation
Scientific-name matching connects each representative record to Japan-oriented trade preparation. CITES and METI review, current alien-species and conservation records, and professional buyer information are separate review surfaces. The guide explains what is reviewed and what must be confirmed for the proposed buyer, documents, route and shipment. It does not determine permission or promise clearance.
- Scientific-name review
- CITES / METI review
- Alien-species and conservation review
- Professional buyer information
KR
Korea Trade Preparation
Korea-oriented preparation separates a species-level baseline from professional buyer qualification. Scientific-name and current-list review, quarantine, government-certificate questions and entry-point planning are examined for the proposed transaction. The guide explains these review surfaces and the need for current buyer and authority confirmation. A baseline record does not establish buyer eligibility, import permission or shipment approval.
- Scientific-name and current-list review
- Buyer qualification
- Quarantine and certificate review
- Entry-point confirmation
CITES Status Is One Review Layer
What GEKUMI reviews
- Scientific-name match
- Current recorded status
- Document or permit pathway where applicable
- Shipment-specific supporting records
What this does not mean
- It is not complete destination approval
- It does not replace buyer qualification
- It does not guarantee customs or quarantine acceptance
- It does not remove shipment review
CITES status reviewed. Current status is reconfirmed before shipment.
Buyer, Shipment and Document Review
- 01◇
Buyer Qualification
Professional buyer identity and importer information are reviewed separately.
Buyer Qualification Required - 02◇
Shipment-Specific Review
Review the exact animal, proposed quantity, destination and route.
Shipment Review Required - 03◇
Document Review
Review current commercial, animal and regulatory documents for the proposed shipment.

Questions About the Review Process
Does a baseline record mean an animal can be imported?+
No. A species-level baseline is one input. Buyer qualification, destination requirements, the proposed route and shipment-specific records are reviewed separately.
When is buyer qualification reviewed?+
Buyer information belongs to a separate trade-account review. This public development page does not verify buyers or collect credentials and documents.
Why is scientific-name matching required?+
The accepted scientific name connects the animal record to the regulatory baseline. Relevant synonyms are checked; a common name or morph does not replace regulatory identity.
When are shipment documents reviewed?+
Documents are reviewed for the proposed transaction, route and current requirements. A sample or public baseline is not a shipment document decision.
Can destination requirements change?+
The baseline requires current destination rules, CITES context, buyer qualification and shipment conditions to be rechecked before shipment.
Where can I view representative availability?+
Use Current Availability to compare the development records. They are representative interface data, not live inventory or commercial offers.
