Transitioning meat and meat products to NEXDOC

Meat will transition to NEXDOC Monday 20 April 2026

Registrations have now opened in the NEXDOC system for meat commodities.

All relevant parties, including exporters, agents, manufacturers, freight forwarders and approved export permit declarants, must register in NEXDOC as soon as possible to ensure continued access to export documentation for meat.

If you are already registered for other commodities, you must add the meat commodity to your existing account to continue accessing export documentation for meat.

Further information on transitioning is provided in the meat notices, fact sheets and support materials listed below.

We have also organised webinars and drop-in sessions to assist you in transitioning.

How to register

To use NEXDOC, you will need to register as a user via the online service portal, even if you are using a third party software to access the system. Further information is available via the links below

Note: In the coming months, you will also need to create an Export Service account so it can link with your NEXDOC account. Further advice will be issued on this iteratively, but please take the time to understand the registration requirements for the Export Service.
