And thus those that label the outside of the box as "Live Harmless Reptiles" should cover the first part of that requirement.


Quote:
(ii) Including an invoice, packing list, bill of lading, or similar document to accompany the shipment which accurately states the name and address of the shipper and consignee, states the total number of packages or containers in the shipment, and for each species in the shipment specifies:
(A) The common name that identifies the species (examples include: Chinook (or king) salmon; bluefin tuna; and whitetail deer) and whether or not the listed species is venomous; and

(B) The number of that species (or other appropriate measure of quantity such as gross or net weight).
The invoice, packing list, bill of lading, or equivalent document must be securely attached to the outside of one container or package in the shipment or otherwise physically accompany the shipment in a manner which makes it readily accessible for inspection; or
And those of us that include a invoice in the box with common, tax, and quanity should cover the second part if I am reading this correctly

although... from here on out... I will start putting the invoice in the label pouch.. that way it is on the OUTSIDE of the container.
