REQUIREMENTS OF LAW

Under State Wildlife Law, no specimen of native wildlife can be held or processed in the state of Victoria unless that specimen has been lawfully obtained.

It is not permitted in the state of Victoria to collect "road kills" unless that person has a special authorization or permit from the Wildlife Department to do so.

Interstate clients should also note that specimens of native wildlife to be shipped to South Pacific Taxidermy must be accompanied by the appropriate export approval or permit of authority issued by the relevant state or territorial wildlife department. Import approval from the Victoria  State Wildlife Department authorities may also have to be obtained prior to import movement.

The export of specimens of native Australian wildlife for commercial purposes is prohibited under the Biodiversity Act 1999.

This also includes all game waterfowl species obtained under a Game Waterfowl Licence.
