Australian Position Statement on the Export of Livestock

The Australian Position Statement on the Export of Livestock is a guideline that complements the Australian Standards for the Export of Livestock.

The position statement was developed to explain the:

  • roles and responsibilities in the export chain

  • Australian animal health and welfare requirements

  • operating environment

  • guiding principles and expected outcomes throughout the live export chain, and

  • responsibility of the three spheres of government (Australian, state and territory, and local governments).
