This Act has been repealed and is no longer in force. It is retained for historical reference.
These Orders set out the fees charged for export services under the Export Control Act — inspections, audits, travel, overtime/shift loadings and export documentation — for specified commodities. Businesses, exporters and occupiers of registered establishments pay the stated rates (per head, per quarter hour, per document, per km, monthly or annually); the Secretary issues invoices, may grant extensions or remission and may suspend services for non‑payment (orders 4J, 24, 41, 45, 49).
The Orders also repeal certain earlier fee provisions, including the EXDOC annual user fee for horticulture (order 2(2)).

(1) For these Orders, inspection services in respect of an establishment are additional inspection services if the inspection services are in addition to the inspection services that are ordinarily required for the purpose of determining whether the following requirements have been met: (a) Australian export requirements; (b) if relevant—the export requirements of the foreign country to which goods that are prepared for export at the establishment are to be exported.
Note: If an inspection service could be performed by an authorised officer who is not an employee of an agency of the Commonwealth, it is an additional inspection service.
(2) Without limiting suborder (1), the following are taken to be additional inspection services: (a) services related to granting an exemption under Part 3 of the Export Control (Prescribed Goods—General) Order 2005; (b) services related to thermal processing or an approved laboratory program for an approved arrangement (whether or not the services are inspection services); (c) services related to variations or amendments to an approved arrangement for a registered establishment (whether or not the services are inspection services).
Unless the contrary intention appears, each fee imposed by these Orders in respect of a service or other thing is in addition to each other fee imposed by these Orders in respect of that service or thing.
Fees are imposed in accordance with this Part for the performance of a service in respect of the following goods: (a) eggs; (b) egg products; (c) fish; (d) fish products; (e) goods in respect of which an application under section 8.05 of the Export Control (Prescribed Goods – General) Order 2005 has been made; (h) milk; (i) milk products; (j) organic produce.
(1) Subject to this Part, fees calculated in accordance with Schedule 1A are imposed for inspection services and additional inspection services performed in respect of goods specified in Schedule 1A. (3) A fee imposed by suborder (1) is payable by the person to whom the service is provided.
(2) Subject to this Part, if: (a) an authorised officer performs inspection services during a particular period; and (b) the officer is entitled to be paid overtime for that period; fees calculated in accordance with Part 2 of Schedule 1B are imposed for the inspection services performed during that period.
Note: The period might not be the whole of the period during which the authorised officer performs the inspection services. For example, if an authorised officer performs services from 8 am to 8 pm, but is entitled to overtime for the 6 pm to 8 pm component, the overtime fee is only payable for the 6 pm to 8 pm component.
(3) A fee imposed by suborder (2) is payable by the person to whom the service is provided.
(1) If the occupier of a registered establishment gives 2 weeks or more written notice to the Secretary that inspection services that are allocated on a monthly basis are not required for a shutdown period specified in the notice, no fee is imposed for the shutdown period and the monthly fees imposed are reduced proportionately for the remainder of any month in which the shutdown occurs. (2) If the occupier of a registered establishment gives less than 2 weeks written notice to the Secretary that inspection services that are allocated on a monthly, weekly or daily basis are not required for a shutdown period specified in the notice, the fee imposed in respect of the shutdown period is unaffected. (3) This order does not apply to registered establishments that have inspection services allocated on an annual basis or on a basis that includes an allocation of services on an annual basis.
(1) If inspection services are not performed in respect of an establishment because of industrial action by authorised officers, the fee imposed for those services is reduced proportionately for each day or part day that inspection services are not performed. (2) In this order, part day means a half day or more.
To avoid doubt, if inspection services that are allocated to a registered establishment are not performed because of industrial action by workers other than authorised officers at the establishment, the fees imposed by these Orders in respect of the services are not affected.
(1) If: (a) an arrangement for a registered establishment allocates inspection services to the establishment on an annual basis; and (b) the occupier gives less than 4 weeks notice of a reduction in inspection services; then: (c) fees for the services continue to be imposed until the earlier of the following: (i) the Secretary determines that the services are allocated to another registered establishment; (ii) the end of 4 weeks after the notice is given; and (d) the arrangement is taken to have allocated inspection services for that year on a monthly basis and fee is imposed equal to the amount of any underpayment. (2) If: (a) an arrangement for a registered establishment allocates inspection services to the establishment on a monthly basis; and (b) the occupier gives less than 4 weeks notice of a reduction in inspection services; fees for the services continue to be imposed until the earlier of the following: (c) the Secretary determines that the services are allocated to another registered establishment; (d) the end of 4 weeks after the notice is given. (3) A fee imposed by paragraph (1) (d) is payable by the occupier of the relevant establishment.
If: (a) an arrangement for a registered establishment allocates inspection services to an establishment otherwise than on an annual basis; and (b) the occupier gives less than 2 weeks notice of a reduction in inspection services; fees for the services continue to be imposed until the earlier of the following: (c) the Secretary determines that the services are allocated to another registered establishment; (d) the end of 4 weeks after the notice is given.

(3) A fee of $7 500 is imposed for each year in which a QM certificate for an organisation is in force under order 3.04 of the Export Control (Organic Produce Certification) Orders. (4) The fee imposed by suborder (3) is payable by the organisation in respect of which the QM certificate is in force, and must be paid in equal quarterly instalments.
(1) Fees are imposed in accordance with this Part for the performance of services in respect of the following goods: (a) grains (whether prescribed grains or not); (b) plants; (c) plant products. (2) A fee imposed in accordance with this Part is payable by the person for whom the services are performed.

(b) meat products.
Note: Meat includes wild game meat, poultry meat, rabbit meat and ratite meat. Meat products includes wild game meat products, poultry meat products, rabbit meat products and ratite meat products.
55 Fees for particular services
(1) If, at the request of a person, an authorised officer performs a service mentioned in Schedule 7, the fee specified in or calculated in accordance with Schedule 7 for the service is imposed.
(2) The Secretary may enter into a written arrangement with the occupier of an establishment under which inspection services for goods specified in the arrangement are allocated to the establishment on a monthly or annual basis, as specified in the arrangement. (3) The arrangement must include provision under which the Secretary may alter the basis of the allocation in the arrangement if the Secretary is satisfied that the altered allocation better represents the usage of inspection services at the establishment. (4) While an arrangement under suborder (2) is in force, suborder (1) does not apply in respect of the establishment and fees calculated in accordance with Part 2 of Schedule 7 are imposed for inspection services to which the arrangement relates, however often the inspection services are actually performed. (5) If: (a) an arrangement under suborder (2) allocates inspection services to an establishment on an annual basis; and (b) the occupier of the establishment gives the Secretary written notice during a year that inspection services are no longer required on that basis; the arrangement is taken to have allocated inspection services for that year on a monthly basis and fee is imposed equal to the amount of any underpayment. (6) A fee imposed by suborder (1), (4) or (5) in respect of an establishment is payable by the occupier of the establishment.
(1) Subject to this Part, if: (a) an authorised officer performs inspection services in respect of an establishment during a particular period; and (b) the officer is entitled to be paid a shift loading for that period; fees calculated in accordance with Part 3 of Schedule 7 are imposed for the inspection services performed during that period.
Note: The period might not be the whole of the period during which the authorised officer performs the inspection services. For example, if an authorised officer performs services from 8 am to 8 pm, but is entitled to a shift loading for the 6 pm to 8 pm component, the shift loading fee is only payable for the 6 pm to 8 pm component.
(2) Subject to this Part, if: (a) an authorised officer performs inspection services in respect of an establishment during a particular period; and (b) the officer is entitled to be paid overtime for that period; fees calculated in accordance with Part 4 of Schedule 7 are imposed for the inspection services performed during that period.
Note: The period might not be the whole of the period during which the authorised officer performs the inspection services. For example, if an authorised officer performs services from 8 am to 8 pm, but is entitled to overtime for the 6 pm to 8 pm component, the overtime fee is only payable for the 6 pm to 8 pm component.
(3) A fee imposed by suborder (1) or (2) is payable by the occupier of the relevant establishment.
(1) If the occupier of a registered establishment gives 2 weeks or more written notice to the Secretary that inspection services that are allocated on a monthly basis are not required for a shutdown period specified in the notice, no fee is imposed for the shutdown period and the monthly fees imposed are reduced proportionately for the remainder of any month in which the shutdown occurs. (2) If the occupier of a registered establishment gives less than 2 weeks written notice to the Secretary that inspection services that are allocated on a monthly basis are not required for a shutdown period specified in the notice, the fee imposed in respect of the shutdown period is unaffected. (3) This order does not apply to registered establishments that have inspection services allocated on an annual basis or on a basis that includes an allocation of services on an annual basis.
(1) If inspection services are not performed in respect of an establishment because of industrial action by authorised officers, the fee imposed for those services is reduced proportionately for each day or part day that inspection services are not performed. (2) In this order, part day means a half day or more.
To avoid doubt, if inspection services that are allocated to a registered establishment are not performed because of industrial action by workers other than authorised officers at the establishment, the fees imposed by these Orders in respect of the services are not affected.
(1) If: (a) an arrangement for a registered establishment allocates inspection services to the establishment on an annual basis; and (b) the occupier gives less than 4 weeks notice of a reduction in inspection services; then: (c) fees for the services continue to be imposed until the earlier of the following: (i) the Secretary determines that the services are allocated to another registered establishment; (ii) the end of 4 weeks after the notice is given; and (d) the arrangement is taken to have allocated inspection services for that year on a monthly basis and fee is imposed equal to the amount of any underpayment. (2) If: (a) an arrangement for a registered establishment allocates inspection services to the establishment on a monthly basis; and (b) the occupier gives less than 4 weeks notice of a reduction in inspection services; fees for the services continue to be imposed until the earlier of the following: (c) the Secretary determines that the services are allocated to another registered establishment; (d) the end of 4 weeks after the notice is given. (3) A fee imposed by paragraph (1) (d) is payable by the occupier of the relevant establishment.
If: (a) an arrangement for a registered establishment allocates inspection services to an establishment on a monthly basis; and (b) the occupier gives less than 2 weeks notice of a termination of inspection services; fees for the services continue to be imposed until the earlier of the following: (c) the Secretary determines that the services are allocated to another registered establishment; (d) the end of 4 weeks after the notice is given.

Note: If an inspection service could be performed by an authorised officer who is not an employee of an agency of the Commonwealth, it is an additional inspection service.

Unless the contrary intention appears, each fee imposed by these Orders in respect of a service or other thing is in addition to each other fee imposed by these Orders in respect of that service or thing.
Fees are imposed in accordance with this Part for the performance of a service in respect of the following goods: (a) eggs; (b) egg products; (c) fish; (d) fish products; (e) goods in respect of which an application under section 8.05 of the Export Control (Prescribed Goods – General) Order 2005 has been made; (h) milk; (i) milk products; (j) organic produce.

Note: The period might not be the whole of the period during which the authorised officer performs the inspection services.
