Within Australia
AQIS is responsible for protecting Australia's environment and agricultural industries from the introduction of pests and diseases from other countries.
However, there is also a risk of spreading pests and diseases that already exist in some parts of Australia to other regions in the country.
Interstate quarantine is a serious issue and restrictions also apply to the movement within Australia of various fruits, vegetables, plants and animals.
The information in this section will assist you in your travels and identify what you can and can't take across State borders when travelling within Australia.
