Attention
Registered eggs exporters, manufacturers, agents, freight forwarders and automated export permit issuers.
Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry (the department) - Central and Regional offices.
Purpose
This Industry Advice Notice (IAN) is to advise Next Export Documentation (NEXDOC) users who have the automated export permit issuers permission for egg products, will soon receive the same permission for dairy, fish and fish product commodities via NEXDOC.
Summary of changes and key points
From Monday 30 September 2024, export documentation for consignments of fish will be managed through NEXDOC.
If you are currently approved in NEXDOC to authorise requests for export (REXs) for the eggs commodity as an automated export permit issuer (AEPI), the department will extend your permission to include the ability to authorise REXs for dairy, fish and fish products. This is an automatic update and there is nothing you need to do at this time.
A reminder that in order to authorise a REX in NEXDOC, you must be listed in the Client Group or Exporter Account that is raising the REX. If you need to be added, you will need to request the Group or Account administrator to add you.
More information
For information on accessing the NEXDOC system, see How to register and access NEXDOC or attend one of the virtual drop in sessions.
For information on AEPI’s for dairy, eggs and fish, see Approving export permits on NEXDOC.
If you have any questions regarding this IAN please email the NEXDOC Helpdesk at NEXDOC@aff.gov.au.
