How do I vet a foreign business or dealer for honesty and integrity?
That's a tough one. And a question I have no answer for.
Maybe. Possibly we would have a member here who lives in that part of the world and can verify them?

Indeed, or It would not be on here.
Importing live animals is regulated and I would first start with understanding what you need in order to do it. Relying on a foreign entity to do this for you is trouble and they have nothing to lose as they have no accountability. If things are not correctly done or you do not have what you need, you will suffer all the consequences.

Also, why not just work through a US importer instead of trying to import yourself?
