Who Can Raise a Request for Permit to Export Agricultural Goods?

It should be noted that The Department of Agriculture and Water Resources in Australia is now the Department of Agriculture, Water and the Environment (DAWE). The Department continues to control the export of plants and animals and plant and animal-based products. Therefore, you need to submit a request for permits to the DAWE to obtain export permits for exporting goods in these categories. Find out who all can follow the procedure and how.

Can You Request for Permit?

The DAWE authorizes the following individuals to raise export permits:

  • Exporters: If you are an exporter, you can register with the Department to apply for the export permits. For instance, the exporters exporting goods in the categories like eggs and egg products, dairy, meat and meat products, horticulture, fish and fish products can directly approach the DAWE for this.
  • Manufacturers: The manufacturers or producers of products in the above-mentioned categories may also perform the task. Similarly, the freight forwarders can also follow the procedure.
  • Service Providers: The export documentation software and service providers can do it on behalf of the exporters. 
  • EDI Users: Anyone approaching the DAWE for export permits need to register with the department as an EDI user. To sum up, irrespective of whether you are an exporter or a service provider, you must be a registered EDI user.

How to Do It?

The DAWE runs EXDOC system as an electronic platform using which an EDI user can raise a request for permits online. In addition to registering with the EXDOC system, you must buy or subscribe to a compatible software to establish a communication interface. The Department authorizes a number of software vendors for this purpose. You can easily access the list of these vendors on the Department’s official website.

Every EDI user gets a unique ID to raise permit requests. Not only this, you may also use the ID to apply for other important trade documents such as health/phytosanitary certificates. You can refer to the Manual of Importing Country Requirements with the DAWE to know the exact requirements for these documents. 

Clearly, EXDOC offers a fast and effort-free way to accelerate your export documentation process.
