Our livestock export service aims to meet all regulatory and quarantine requirements for both the Australian and Japanese governments. Australia is the largest livestock exporter in the world, with exports to Japan providing a valuable market for Australia’s livestock producers. Animal welfare is our main priority.
We follow all AQIS (Australian Quarantine Inspection Services) regulations, in order to ensure all livestock have a safe journey. All livestock are weighed, we also check their height, vaccinate, and insure that livestock have the density with plenty of room while on their journey.
At Australia’s Livestock Exporters, it’s important that all animals commence their export journey to Japan with the appropriate standards in place. The following information relates to animal welfare laws and guidelines, and practices relating to quarantine.
