Things
you need to know about advertising and purchasing Animals and Plant species
in Australia:
The Commonwealth Department of the Environment, Water, Heritage and the
Arts (DEWHA) regulates the import and export of plants and animals under
Part 13A of the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act
1999 (the EPBC Act).
This legislation also reflects Australia’s obligations under the
Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna
and Flora (CITES).
CITES is an international agreement involving over
170 countries. It aims to ensure that international trade in specimens
of wild animals and plants does not threaten their survival. Documentation
will need to be obtained from the department before CITES listed specimens
(or products derived from them) can be imported, or exported from Australia.
The EPBC Act’s ‘Live Import List’
indicates whether or not a permit is required to be obtained from DEWHA
before a specimen can be legally imported to Australia.
Part 1 of the Live Import List identifies
those species which may be imported into Australia without a permit being
issued by this Department.
Part 2 of the Live Import List identifies
those species which may be imported into Australia, but must be accompanied
by a valid import permit issued by this department.
If a plant or animal is not listed on
the Live Import List, it cannot be imported into Australia.
