Useful Tips to Get Meat Export Permit Quickly

Meat commodities are among the top export items from Australia. At the same time, exporting these items may be full of hassles. Because of their perishable nature, any delay in the shipment of these goods may lead to losses. In addition, meeting the importing country requirements precisely may increase the efforts involved. As a result, a lot of exporters hire services for meat export managed by experts.

An important part of the process is getting the meat export permit approved really fast. In case you manage to get it done smoothly, you may save a lot of efforts. So, here are some tips to help you.

Prepare Clear Product Description

The application for meat export permit must be submitted to the Department of Agriculture, Water and the Environment. The Department requires the meat exporters to know the categories their goods fall into and write clear and accurate description accordingly. It should be noted that the meat commodities may belong to one of the many prescribed goods categories. For example, these may include edible meat, offal and meat products or game meat and meat products or poultry meat, offal and meat products and so on.

Refer to the Legislation

The main law that governs the export of meat products from Australia is the Export Control Meat and Meat Products Orders of 2005. It recommends and verifies the meat product categories that are eligible for export and mandates the requirement of a meat export permit. Also, you may also need to refer to the Export Control Orders specific to the game, poultry and rabbit meat commodities. Furthermore, your application must also state that the intended export commodities are in accordance with the Australian Standard for the Hygiene Production and Transportation of Meat and Meat Products for Human Consumption.

Meet Importing Country Requirements

Last but not least, your application and intended export goods must meet the requirements as prescribed by the destination country. For this, you must refer to the Manual of Importing Country Requirements or obtain the updated information from the industry experts.

Along with these preparations, you must have a good software tool to communicate with the Department’s EXDOC system to obtain export permit electronically. This can actually reduce a lot of manual efforts and add pace to the entire process.
