Australia Customs (Prohibited Exports) Regulations—List of Controlled Precursor Substances

The Australia Customs (Prohibited Exports) Regulations—List of Controlled Precursor Substances is compiled based on the precursor substances in Schedule 9 of the Australian Customs (Prohibited Exports) Regulations 1958. The list comprehensively includes drug precursor substances (precursor chemicals for drug manufacture) subject to export controls, covering the names and CAS numbers of various precursor chemicals that can be used in the illicit manufacture of drugs. Under the regulations, the export of such substances requires an export permit issued in advance by the competent authority, and strict compliance with the quantity, use, end-user and destination restrictions specified in the permit. Relevant enterprises should check product ingredients against the list before export. If precursor substances are contained, they must apply for a permit in advance and fulfill declaration obligations.
