To All Interested
First of all any body that holds a licence in any state can import from W.A as long as it done through a licensed reptile dealer here. We are one of 14 dealers in this state but are only one of three that hold the highest category of licence (category 5). This allows us to export venomous reptiles as well. The correct export fee payable to C.A.L.M. is $150 plus $30 for record return plus $ 20 transfer fee total $190. These fee are per consignment with a maximum of five( $190 divided by five is $38 per animal )plus freight.

People need to realize that there are royalties paid on all animals taken from the wild and this starts from $25 cat 2 , $50 cat 3, $100 cat 4, $200 cat 5. These fees have to be passed on to the price on any animal purchased. This as anybody can easily work out makes some species? simply unfinancially viable to import. I hope this helps clear up the situation Any enquiries you can e-mail us at
