ASEL

The Australian Standards for the Export of Livestock (ASEL) outline the animal health and welfare requirements for the livestock export industry from farm to the discharge of animals in the country of export.

There is a lot of detail in ASEL about how exporters must care for livestock along the livestock export chain to discharge including planning the consignment, transporting livestock from farm to registered premises to port, and vessel preparation.
