  • 2024 07 03 Consultation on fur import ban and declaration requirements for animal products - TIR and three further organisations submit joint statement

    ... Such an import ban is the only way to prevent domestic demand from fuelling cruel production methods abroad, which are clearly rejected by a large proportion of the Swiss population. According to the draft ordinance, furs may only be imported into Switzerland in future if they originate from countries that legally prohibit cruel forms of production or if they were obtained on certified farms that adhere to corresponding production guidelines.  In their statement, however, the four organisations also point out various shortcomings in the planned ban. From an animal welfare perspective, for exa...
