Pythons can be imported from interstate. Unfortunately its one way traffic out of here.

No pythons are allowed to be imported into WA.

I think you mean it CAN'T be imported into WA, but pythons can be exported

pilbara pythons in WA Freight out of state, good prices as well

My understanding is...you can take snakes out of WA, not bring them in.....

As the people above have already said,
Pythons are NOT allowed to be imported from other states as of IBD and OPMV in some Eastern States pythons.
We are allowed to Export Pythons to other states, though after they are in another state we are not allowed to export them back in.
You can try Pilbara Pythons as they have the lowest prices on Womas ($950each) and BHPs($1200each) in WA.

You do realise that IBD was possibly first recorded in a wild animal in WA as far back as 1999? Also just because the keeping of reptiles in WA has not long been legal in that state doesn't mean that reptiles both native and non native weren't kept prior to that? To imply that WA animals are free of disease or virus is misleading at best.
