OblongShrimp Posted August 1, 2014 Report Share Posted August 1, 2014 awesome! How did that change? I can't imagine the shrimp lobby is big there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metageologist Posted August 1, 2014 Report Share Posted August 1, 2014 Probably a typo. But that will be good you can now enjoy more shrimp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaun Posted August 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2014 Don't know exactly how but it did and that is all that matters.Probably finished theenvironmental studies.They are all over the importers lists.And there is a HUGE demand for them.

metageologist Posted August 1, 2014 Report Share Posted August 1, 2014 So now that you can import shrimp, what will be your first purchase. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun Posted August 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2014 Well I was thinking a proper trio of green hulks I love green.But I am open to suggestions.I already have some sort of bastardized shrimp but not very good quality I fear. Truth be told I think I will hang back on the importing thing for a while as I am sure that there was a lot of illegal shrimp already being brought into the country and that the breeeders of those will start popping out of the woodwork. Naturally this also depends on the prices if I can import for cheaper than local prices then obviously I will do just that.

OblongShrimp Posted August 1, 2014 Report Share Posted August 1, 2014 I know I have shipped shrimp products to South Africa a couple times over the years so at least some people were smuggling them in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soothing Shrimp Posted August 1, 2014 Report Share Posted August 1, 2014 Do you have to have exporting papers for that Oblong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun Posted August 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2014 I know I have shipped shrimp products to South Africa a couple times over the years so at least some people were smuggling them in So you would be my go to guy then if I need some stuff Oblong?

Subtletanks91 Posted August 3, 2014 Report Share Posted August 3, 2014 Do you have to have exporting papers for that Oblong? For hard goods I don't think you need exporting papers. When I went to send a package to my niece in japan I had to fill out a paper stating what was in the box, but never had to pay extra for exporting it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun Posted August 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2014 If it is wood or anything organic you will need papers especially if you mail to Australia and new Zealand.They have even tighter rules than us.

Soothing Shrimp Posted August 4, 2014 Report Share Posted August 4, 2014 yeah. That's what I was thinking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OblongShrimp Posted August 4, 2014 Report Share Posted August 4, 2014 I think I have had issues shipping to Australia (several years ago) but otherwise I haven't had any problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun Posted August 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2014 Strange they have much more stringent laws than us. Sent from my BlackBerry 9860 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chibikaie Posted August 8, 2014 Report Share Posted August 8, 2014 Australia has legitimate concerns about non-natives taking over their continent. It doesn't even need to be live vertebrates - diseases can be transmitted much more easily than people realize. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
