Customs Declaration
According to the Australian Customs web site about what needs to be
declared and what not, "Declare all animal and plant materials or items made from their parts" I will be visiting Australia from abroad for the first time in the near future. Parts of my shoes contain porcine leather, and some of my clothes are made of natural fibers (cotton, linen). Does anybody know I need to declare that when entering Australia? If yes, do I need to declare each article of clothes separately? Thanks! |

"Peter Webb" wrote in message u... Declare nothing except your stupidity For your information linen and cotton are made of plants, and natural leather and wool are made from animals. If you have information that clothing items are exempt from the requirement, post it up |

If you have information that clothing items are exempt from the requirement, post it up Exactly! I get asked several times a week questions you wouldn't dream of purely because people do not want to break any laws i.e. CITES, country they are visiting. In most cases, it's all ok however there's the odd one that is a curly one and one has to email the authority concerned for an answer. Even processed items can still require fumigation. i.e. one feather on a hat band for example. There is NO wrong question no matter how stupid or silly it may seem to some. Better to be safe than sorry. Cath |

I wish Customs catch you with a wooden dildo you didn't declare,
because you thought it would be stupid to declare something like that. Oh, wait; in order to go through Customs, one needs to actually travel. And it's obvious that travel is not something you ever do. "A Mate" wrote in message ... A silly troll!! Has the mid-summer school vacation in the US started already? "TObject" wrote in message ...
