An Overview
Export-It has been developed by ourselves along
similar lines to our very popular Meatcom software which since it's
introduction in 1991, is still being used by the majority of the Australian
meat industry. Export-It and Meatcom are Australia's most popular EXDOC
interface software and enables you to communicate your intention to export
goods out of Australia with the Australian Quarantine and Inspection Service's
(AQIS) EXDOC system and/or Australian Customs Service's (ACS) CMR ICS systems via
standard phone lines. It conforms to all of ACS's and AQIS's rules and
therefore handles non-meat products (i.e. dairy, fish, grain, horticulture,
wool, Skins & hides)
perfectly, as allowed by each agency.
Export-It is now released as a Windows version and
will function on Windows 95/98/ME/NT/2K/XP/2003/Vista/WTS.
If your number of shipments is small, it may be worth
while using an agent. Syscob
Pty Ltd offers such a service.

and navigate)
