Registrations have now opened in the NEXDOC system for meat commodities.
Meat will transition to NEXDOC Monday 20 April 2026.
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 is provided in the meat notices, fact sheets and support materials listed below.
We have also organised webinars and drop-in sessions, which are listed below.
Note: The transition date is still to be confirmed, and updates will be provided as they become available.
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.
