sending herps interstate

If I had a snake (basic licence req'd species) shipped from Qld to Vic, do I need a special licence or anything like that?

Import permit. You can't move snakes or lizards to another state without one.

Bloody revenue happy control freak polie types! I can get you an info sheet off the DNRE website all about how to catch Macquarie Perch, it even recommends how to cook the bloody things, but if you have one in your aquarium, look out! Thanks for the info Craig.

It actually doesn't cost anything for the import/export permits, it's just the DSE's way of finding out what's legally comming into and going out of the state.

If you live in Queensland the person buying the animal has to work out their paperwork in whatever State they are in, of course every State varies. You just need to fill in a Movement Advice which is $2.50.
