hi everyone, am from Singapore, a country in South East Asia.
I visit quiet a few online tarantula shop. But all the websit i visit do not ship tarantula to any other country.
Am not sure if anyone here knows how can i get a tarantula online by shipping.

you will have to ask breeders for that, no online shop will sent to Asia!

i think??

I've been searching the regulations to ship to other countries from u.s.a. i believe if you look for selling t's on your search engine then you can ask the breeder a question and they would be able to let you know if they can ship you some. exporting and importing from usa gets a little tricky, i'm still researching it. my hubby and i want to sell t's to other countries but we are still in the new stage, so it won't be for awhile till we start, but i think if you look at the british trantula society i think they can help. sorry no links to them can't find them at the moment. hope this helps a bit:rolleyes:

You can't ship in or out of the USA, without a lot of trouble. They are basically behind an IRON CURTAIN. Australia and other countries have closed themselves off too. You might try to ship Ts from Europe or Russia etc... they are more in tune with free enterprise.;) This all depends on whether your country allows you to import Ts.

i heard about a way around the red tape is to go through a free trade zone but i'm not sure how that works either. i know this is possible so find out about them in your country or others and see if that's avalible, it might help alot. if you find any info let us know it could help out others. thanks

Get a import license and you shouldnt have much problem
As simple as that
However,I think Singapore is closed for export/import but check with your wildlife authorities from more info.
