Subject: Bringing Rawhide into Australia

Hi everyone,

I’m heading to New Zealand this week for a trophy hunting trip, and I’m planning to bring back some salted and dried rawhide as well as antlers. Do I need a permit for this, or can I bring it as oversized luggage? I would really appreciate any guidance, as I’m not very familiar with the regulations. Thank you in advance for your help!

One thought on “Bringing Rawhide Into Aus”

  1. When bringing rawhide and antlers into Australia, there are specific regulations you need to be aware of to ensure compliance with biosecurity laws. Here are a few points to consider:

    1. Permits: You may need to apply for a permit to bring rawhide and antlers into Australia, especially if they are from a regulated species or if they haven’t been appropriately processed. It’s best to check with the Australian Department of Agriculture, Water and the Environment for the most accurate and updated information regarding permits.

    2. Biosecurity Regulations: Australia has strict biosecurity laws to prevent the introduction of pests and diseases. It’s crucial to declare any animal products at customs. Undeclared items can lead to confiscation and potential penalties.

    3. Oversized Luggage: While you might be able to bring these items as oversized luggage, it’s important to confirm with your airline regarding their policies on transporting raw materials and potential restrictions.

    4. Declaration: Be prepared to declare your items upon arrival. This is essential for any products of animal origin.

    I recommend reaching out to the relevant authorities or checking their website for comprehensive guidelines before you travel to ensure a smooth entry process. Safe travels on your hunting trip!
