Herp export laws South East Asia

Hey, I'm new here so I hope this question is ok,

I've been looking for a while to try and get a particular frog (Euphlyctis cyanophlyctis) for my MS/PhD project. Its apparently very common in South East Asia, and Amphibian Species of the World currently lists its distribution as:
Quote:
Southeastern Iran, southern Afghanistan, Pakistan (except for the far north), low elevation Nepal, and eastern India at low to moderate elevations east through Bangladesh and northeastern India to extreme western Myanmar; Sri Lanka; Malaya; Minh Hai Province, Vietnam.
My problem is, if worst comes to worst (though, I would prefer it not be the case) there is probably money for me to go field collect, but I actually can't find any realy information about the actual export laws from these countries. From the amount I'd been able to infer from talking to various reptile dealters, I know India is closed definitely, and Vietnam is open (maybe?). I know Cal Academy has been doing inventory in Myanmar/Burma, but I'm not actually sure they brought any live specimens back. Sri Lanka's government website does not have any information on export except anythying but cows, as far as I can tell....basically I have no information about what countires would actually allow frogs to leave their borders.

If anyone could give me any information about herp export policies in any of the countries quoted, or a resource somewhere that actually lists these laws, I would be really greatful.

Thanks!
