Ivory

If you plan to travel abroad and your Instrument or bow contain ivory, you must obtain a Cites Certification form the US Fish and Wildlife Department before you leave. Otherwise your bow/instrument may get confiscated as illegal contraband.

If you own a bow or instrument containing ivory that is less than 100 years old you are in violation of the directors order and you can not obtain any legal certificate in order to travel with your Instrument or bow. It is also illegal to sell or trade your bow and instrument when they contain ivory. 
Please read the original order No 210 of the Director of US Fish & Wildlife Department here.

And an appendix to it here.
