title: CITES plants of Europe
abstract: This Regulation contains lists of species subjected to restrictions, listed in four annexes, marked with the letters A, B, C and D. As with CITES attachments, each of these annexes has slightly different restrictions. The Regulation introduces all CITES provisions, but also sets out a number of others. For example, it prohibits commercial exploitation (including sales) in the EU of all species of Annex A, and for species of Annex B with no proof of legal origin.
