DAFF Biosecurity recommends contacting the Byford Animal Quarantine Station to confirm accommodation availability before booking your travel arrangements. However, this does not guarantee you a booking, this will only be an indication of when accommodation is available at the time you make your inquiry.</p> Wed, 27 Jun 2012 15:37:34 +1000http://www.daff.gov.au/aqis/cat-dogs/cats_and_dogs_alerts/dogs_require_bordetella_bronchiseptica_vaccination2Tue, 03 Apr 2012 09:12:38 +1000http://www.daff.gov.au/aqis/cat-dogs/cats_and_dogs_alerts/rabies_vaccination_requirements_for_cyprusTue, 03 Apr 2012 09:12:22 +1000http://www.daff.gov.au/aqis/cat-dogs/cats_and_dogs_alerts/rabies_vaccination_requirements_for_uk,_malta,_republic_of_ireland,_and_swedenTue, 03 Apr 2012 09:12:29 +1000http://www.daff.gov.au/aqis/cat-dogs/cats_and_dogs_alerts/changes_to_booking_and_invoicing2Tue, 03 Apr 2012 09:12:31 +1000http://www.daff.gov.au/aqis/cat-dogs/cats_and_dogs_alerts/quarantine_station_operating_hours_over_chistmas_and_new_year_2011-2012Tue, 03 Apr 2012 09:12:24 +1000http://www.daff.gov.au/aqis/cat-dogs/cats_and_dogs_alerts/canine_influenza_virus_civ_vaccination_for_dogs_from_the_usaTue, 03 Apr 2012 09:12:33 +1000http://www.daff.gov.au/aqis/cat-dogs/cats_and_dogs_alerts/new_fee_schedule_from_7_aug_2009Tue, 03 Apr 2012 09:12:38 +1000http://www.daff.gov.au/aqis/cat-dogs/cats_and_dogs_alerts/proposed_increase_to_daily_accommodation_feesTue, 03 Apr 2012 09:12:20 +1000
