  • The new form will be accessible for registered users through the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry's (DAFF)  Export Service.
  • Licence holders will continue to receive automated licence renewal reminder notices.  
  • Renewal notices will be sent out 180 days before a licence renewal is due, with subsequent reminders to be sent out at regular intervals until the renewal period is closed.
  • More information can be found on the Export Service help page or by contacting exportservice@aff.gov.au or 1800 571 125.
  • Using the Export Service for livestock export licence applications is not mandatory. PDF application forms will still be available on request by emailing livestockexp@aff.gov.au.

Background

The Export Service was launched to provide exporters and supply chain participants with a way to manage their agricultural export requirements in one place and to interact with DAFF. 
The service intends to provide a single sign in experience to all DAFF export services, providing a front door for users to sign in once and then access other services as needed.
