The Australian Government’s Post Entry Quarantine (PEQ) facility located in Mickleham, Victoria manages high-risk plant and animal imports, including cats, dogs, horses, live birds, hatching eggs, bees and ruminants. When these imports arrive in Australia, they are kept in quarantine while their health is checked to make sure they don’t carry any pests or diseases.
Post entry quarantine is the final step in the process of reducing the biosecurity risks associated with importing animals and plants into Australia. All imported animals and plants complete their post entry quarantine at this facility.
