This document analyses the use of traceability systems as a tool to strengthen existing CITES processes, in particular legal acquisition findings (LAFs) and non-detriment findings (NDFs), for non-timber plant species, particularly medicinal plants, listed under CITES Appendices II and III. In particular, the study focuses on the trade in CITES Appendix II-listed medicinal plants (Aquilaria crassna –agarwood, Gastrodia elata and Dendrobium nobile) from the Greater Mekong subregion countries: Cambodia, China, Lao People's Democratic Republic, Myanmar, Thailand and Viet Nam.
