A Guide to Use EXDOC System for Important Export Documents


The Export Documentation (EXDOC) System is an electronic platform used by the Department of Agriculture and Water Resources (DAWR), Australia to receive a number of export documentation related requests from the exporters.  The system makes the procedure much easier and faster than traditional paper-based documentation requests. If you are about to use it for the very first time, here is a useful guide to help you.

Why Use EXDOC System?

You would need to use the EXDOC system for two important purposes:
  1. To lodge the request for permits for export
  2. To apply for a number of export-related documents like Heath/Phytosanitary Certificates and others as demanded by the importing countries
Now, you must know about which categories of goods you need to apply for export permit and export documents with this system. These include goods that are controlled by the DAWR and are broadly classified into two categories:
  1. Plants and plant products, including grains, seeds, cut flowers, fruits, vegetables, foliage, timber, log and so on.
  2. Animals and animal products, including milk and milk products, meat and meat products, egg and egg products, fish and fish products, livestock and more

How to Register with EXDOC?

In order to use the EXDOC system, you must be registered with it as an exporter or an EDI user or as both. An EDI user is authorized to make requests for permits and export documents on behalf of a registered exporter.

In order to get registered as an EDI user, you must have a software accredited by and compliant with the EXDOC system. You can find a list of accredited vendors on the official website of the DAWR. It is recommended that you choose a software which is cloud-based as it makes the process of applying for the documents much more convenient. You may also choose a software package that helps in preparing other important trade documents.

As per the recent updates, the DAWR is ready to upgrade its EXDOC system to NEXDOC that would offer documentation support for many additional goods. Make sure that you keep a watch on the transition.
