Once TS receives this information, we will send you a letter called an ‘Invitation to Hunt’. This letter is necessary for importing your rifle(s) when you arrive at the airport in South Africa.
Please note that if you cancel your safari (3) three months or less before the start date of your hunting trip, the deposit will not be refunded.
We partner with Trophy Solutions, situated in Polokwane, to cater to your trophy and hide preservation requirements. The package you select will grant you access to cooling facilities. Trophy Solutions will invoice you directly for the necessary dipping, packing, and licenses.
Once the hides and trophies are ready, they will be packed and sent to a cargo business in Johannesburg. From there, arrangements will be made to ship them overseas, and you will receive another invoice from the cargo business handling your shipment.
A representative from your country will get in touch with you to help with the pickup, payment of customs and government/conservation charges, and delivery straight to your address. You will also receive a separate bill for the services rendered.
