German authorities reportedly asked teen sensation Justin Bieber to pay nearly $8,000 for the costs of caring for the capuchin monkey he had to leave behind in Munich after not bringing the right-paperwork for it on tour, CNN reported in a Aug. 1 article. 

The money would go towards bills for vaccinations, accommodation and transport for the monkey, named Mally, which is now reportedly being taken care of at a zoo in northern Germany. 

After failing to get a response from the pop star at the address he gave to custom officials, they've posted a public notice of the bill, Martin Brandlhuber, a customs spokesman at Munich's airport said to CNN. 

Bieber must pay the next time he comes to Germany or risk being denied entry, Brandlhuber said. 

If the teen is unable to pay, then Brandlhuber said customs officials could confiscate other property to meet the claim. Instead, Bieber could be denied entry and have to give a valid address. 

After it was confiscated at the end of March when Biebs arrived in Germany on his European tour, Mally was taken to a Munich animal shelter.

The monkey was reportedly transferred to the Serengeti Park in Hodenhagen in June after spending many weeks in quarantine.

Zoo spokeswoman Juliane Gunklel told CNN last month that the singer had until May 7 to present the paperwork to get his monkey back, but failed to do so.

Because the performer never presented the paperwork, Mally is now the property of the German government. Serengeti Park was picked to house Mally because it's the only German zoo that has a family of capuchins.
