G'day All,

Does anyone have any insight on the process for exporting my rifle from RSA to Australia. I know I have to obtain an export permit here in RSA and the "new owner" in Australia has to obtain an import permit. The Australian side of things is pretty well sorted out (I think!!).

I'm more interested in the procedure involved.

How long does it take?
How do I pack it?
Where do I take it?
Costs of permit and shipping?

Anything else I need to be aware of etc etc etc.....

Thanks
Gary

You have the wrong person. I have no idea what you are talking about..

I have been using a "Personal Property" rider on my State Farm homeowner's policy to cover guns when I travel with them.
I have several firearms, but only one is worth over $20K (A Heym double rifle).
Very interested.
Would firearms be covered for damage, as well as, complete loss?
I'll can let the State Farm rider cover my watches...
