Taking Delivery of Your Order from Australia

Taking your instructions and shipping your order is easy. Communication between Australia and you is simple, cheap and reliable. Australia has a communication system that makes it as easy for us to contact you than for us to contact the other side of our own very large country.

Australians are highly skilled and experienced at moving all types of goods around the world. Our isolated position as an island continent in the southwest Pacific has given us the necessary background to satisfy the most stringent requirements of all importing countries.

Prices and Placing an Order for Semen, Embryos and Live Cattle

Generally, Devon Genetics Australia will quote you a price for semen or embryos that includes the cost of the goods and shipping the goods to your nearest airport.

Generally Devon Genetics Australia will quote you a price for live cattle as if they were delivered to the point of embarkation in Australia ie FAS. (See below for further discussion about freight)

Prices for semen, embryos and live cattle will be quoted in Australian dollars. Depending on the specific needs of Devon Genetics Australia and you, the price in Australian dollars may be converted to another currency. The Australian economy has maintained a strong growth for the past 5 to 10 years. The currency of Australia has appreciated in value against all major currencies since July 2002. Devon Genetics Australia recommends to all clients to take advice from your appropriate consultants and bankers in this matter.

Price conversion to another currency will only occur under the following conditions:

·
 Specific agreement between Devon Genetics Australia and you that the Australian price will be converted to another currency
·
 The converted price will reflect the conversion rate on the day the goods are shipped, or on some other day specifically agreed between Devon Genetics Australia and you
·
 The price quoted to you at the time you place your order, in any currency except Australian dollars, is subject to change. For fluctuations of exchange rates, Devon Genetics Australia will use currency conversion rates of its bankers.

Following these negotiations, Devon Genetics Australia will immediately issue you with a preliminary invoice. Devon Genetics Australia may require you to place a deposit with your order and to confirm payment of your order in the form of a letter of credit or other financial instrument.

You as the importer will need our preliminary invoice to obtain an Import Permit or equivalent authorisation in your country.

·
 Supply semen and/or embryos as per your order

 Comply with the health, customs and import protocols of your country

Shipping Your Order - Live Cattle

The import protocols for live cattle are often less onerous than for the import of animal products. As with semen and embryo collection there is always the need for quarantine periods. The pre-shipment quarantine period in Australia can often be done on the source property of the cattle. If you are contemplating purchasing live cattle from Devon Genetics Australia, enquire of your national authority about the quarantine protocols in Australia and in your country after arrival.

You as the importer will need our preliminary invoice to obtain an Import Permit or equivalent authorisation in your country. This gives you the authority to import the live cattle from Devon Genetics Australia. We will need the Import Permit from you to commence and then complete export of the animals from Australia.

Australians have vast experience at moving live animals around the world. For valuable livestock such as seedstock cattle and thoroughbred horses we use airfreight. (For shipment of large numbers of feeder cattle and sheep around the world we have specially built livestock ships capable of carrying tens of thousands of animals.)

Shipment of live cattle is common in the cargo decks of regular QANTAS passenger flights. Cargo aircraft companies have regular routes around the world for transporting live cattle. Devon Genetics Australia can assist with shipping arrangements. Negotiation and confirmation with DGA about freighting live cattle to you should be completed prior to placing your order.

Specifically, Devon Genetics Australia will carry out the following as part of the contract with you:

· Supply live cattle as per your order
· Comply with the health, customs and import protocols of your country
· Complete the requirements of the Import Permit for your country
· Complete all administrative requirements of the Australian Government and its agencies for shipment of the animals
· Transport the animals to the airport of embarkation in Australia

Devon Genetics Australia will also carry out the following if you have contracted with DGA to ship the animals on your behalf:

· Supply shipping containers and packaging (but not the in-flight aircraft pallets) to satisfy the import and shipping requirements of your country
· Transport the live cattle by airfreight to the specified quarantine airport in your country
· Insure the live cattle for the full invoice value of the animals

You as the importer are responsible for the following:

· Payment of the full invoice value of the animals at a time and in a place agreed between Devon Genetics Australia and you. This agreement about price, time of payment, place of payment and other matters pertaining to fulfilment of your order must be completed at the time you order the goods. This is a specific requirement if you have also contracted with DGA to ship the animals on your behalf
· Payment of all your permits, local taxes and charges incurred by you as the importer in your country
· Payment of all your local freight, feed, attendants, veterinary costs and charges after the animals have arrived at the specified quarantine airport in your country
· Payment of any other imposts, quarantine costs, commissions or charges between you and all parties acting on your behalf as the importer
