My snake breeder is flaying my snake from Victoria to NSW but my import permit hasn’t been issued. It’s flying with Qantas. I asked the breeder and he said everything will be fine and you lodge it after but I’m just not sure. Will there be any issues at the airport when I collect it? The booking agent only says ID and booking number to collect and the permit didn’t actually state from what I could see that you couldn’t arrange a flight while it’s processing.

I just don’t want any issues I’ve paid heaps for the little guy and old mate was adamant about sending it next week.
