2014-13 - Russian Federation - Suspension of Trade in Australian agricultural commodities

​​Purpose

To advise exporters of the immediate suspension of trade in Australian agricultural commodities including certain live animals to the Russian Federation.

Background

The department has become aware that the President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin has signed a Presidential Decree on the ‘Application of Certain Special Economic Measures in order to protect the national security of the Russian Federation’.

The Decree imposes immediate bans, for one year, on imports of specified agricultural commodities originating from countries including Australia. An unofficial translation of the Decree is provided at Attachment 1.

The list of agricultural commodities affected by the decree, identified by HS (Harmonized Systems) Code, is provided at Attachment 2.

Instructions

In considering whether to grant an export permit the Secretary may refuse to grant the export permit if there is reason to believe that the intended country of destination will not permit consignment of live animals or reproductive material to enter.

Effective from 8 August 2014, the department will carefully consider all applications for export permits for live animals or reproductive material destined to the Russian Federation.

The department advises all exporters to proceed with extreme caution when considering whether to apply to export live animals or reproductive material to the Russian Federation.

The department is not aware if the list of commodities listed in the Decree will be expanded further.

The department will provide all exporters with updates as further information becomes available.
