You can look on the AVA website and see if there are any restrictions, www.ava.gov.sg

In Fact i have done it for you, here's the information Pet food imported to Singapore must be obtained from approved sources to ensure that they are safe for consumption by animals. All import of pet food to Singapore requires approval from AVA.

22$ per consignment! You need the import permit and the list of approved sources of suppliers.

Visit or ring AVA for more information.

Never mind the sarcasm, its all in good fun and expected on the forum as entertaining, the wider audience :) don't take it personal! Peace to the Chinchillas :wink: Yes we have one :)

hi KSL,

thanks for the replied.

I check on it too.
It seems that way but i called them and they say about tradenet which needs a fee of $22 for the permit. Nvr heard about the consignment fee though, this is why im puzzled and needs help.

Are you doing in bale or otherwise ? Tradenet fee is standard for every permit you are wanting to bring in..What kind of feed are you talking about ?. You said for sale and personal use . How so ? Are you going to do transhipment to other countries, if yes , you do not need tradenet

i'm still confused, what exactly do you want to do with the hay? maybe...

1 - i like worzel gummidge so much i want to make one?
2 - props for the singaporean cowboy movie i'm staring in?
3 - i want to make hay hats?
4 - feeding my pet horse (note: permit required to keep a horse in your HDB)?
5 - feeding my wife and children, and pets?
6 - to test a new hay bailing machine i've just developed (you'll need a permit to drive that in singapore)?
9 - just because I like hay?
10 - i think there is a market selling pillows made from hay, especially to the line dancers (tiring you know!)

is it a secret?
