So, I'm planning on moving to another country someday (specifically Turkey), and was wondering if anyone knew of laws pertaining to Turkey on insect collection and stick insect owning, and possibly owning insects in general there?
I've heard from a resource that it is very strict in insect laws there, so I just wanted to know a bit more clearly on the laws there. I know some EU countries are loose on the rules, while others are very strict.
Thank you for the help :)

Do their government sites have anything? Do you speak/read the language?

While turkey aint part of the EU, i definitely wouldn't bring any insect collections there. They have VERY strict laws, and even a insect museum was shut down because it didnt have a permit. As a citizen of turkey, i would advise to maybe stray away from things that might seem extra-ordinary in turkey as their laws are sometimes REALLY strict.
