​Date of Issue: 13 June 2013

Date of Effect: Immediate

The Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry (DAFF) advises that due to recent changes to the European Union (EU) model certificate for fish and fishery products, a large volume of EXDOC certificates which are based off the EU model require amendment.

Prior to exporting fish and fishery products to the EU, DAFF recommends that exporters contact their regional DAFF office to establish which certificates are available at this time.
