We need some help. DAFF are considering increasing their fees for a 10 day stay to around $1800 AUD which is a fortune.

 

We would love you to sign the petition we have started and share it with people who are going to or have gone to Australia with their pets.

Thanks for your help and I hope we can ask DAFF to reconsider this policy.

 

PS Tatty - I am really sorry you never received your quote, we all of a sudden started getting siphoned off to junk folder :(

Ok - well I'm reposting my OP here....

 

[h=2]Post Entry Quarantine Animal Imports Fee Review[/h]

Deep sigh.... sizeable fee hike proposed for quarantine, affects especially cats. Gutted.
:sad:

I did send them feedback... given that the Perth quarantine is closed, importing animals to WA is becoming very very expensive.

Consultation

 

To provide feedback on the proposed cost recovery arrangements
by 28 April 2014.

 

There's also a petition site:

It seems wrong to me that they've reduced the time from 30 days to ten and then increased the fee three fold to make up the difference. Surely they cannot justify it other than loss of income from the reduced time. I'll happily sign.

 

Cheers

Gareth
