National Reporting under CMS and its instruments, if carried out properly, has numerous benefits for the reporting countries:
• The National Reporting process can serve as an incentive for the systematic collection of data and information related to migratory species. It also provides for the regular updating of this data and information and for some countries can provide a unique framework for collating and archiving data and information.

The data and information gathered in the National Reports, when objective and comprehensive, are of great value for many processes and user groups. For this reason it is important that the data be as complete and accurate as possible.
National Reports functions as a “one-stop-shop” for a country’s official information on migratory species and the measures undertaken to conserve them. Through this, the Government fulfills its obligations under CMS and its instruments.Regions:CMS Instruments:ACAP, ACCOBAMS, AEWA, Aquatic Warbler, ASCOBANS, Atlantic Turtles, Bukhara Deer, CMS, Dugong, EUROBATS, Gorilla Agreement, High Andean Flamingos, IOSEA Marine Turtles, Middle-European Great Bustard, Monk Seal in the Atlantic, Pacific Islands Cetaceans, Raptors (Birds of Prey), Ruddy-headed Goose, Saiga Antelope, Sharks, Siberian Crane, Slender-billed Curlew, South Andean Huemul, Southern South American Grassland Birds, Wadden Sea Seals, West African Elephants, Western African Aquatic Mammals
