Livestock Documents

To Buy or sell liovestock you need to have a Property Identification Code (PIC Number) from PIRSA.  You will also need to go through your agent.

To sell livestock it is important that you have

(1) A current NVD book (C0413) / eDec

(2) A PIC (Property Identification Code), and

(3) a LPA (Livestock Production Assurance) number.

If you are a Hobby farmer, an ATO declaration is required so that we don’t deduct withholding tax from your payment.

To register for a PIC (Property Identification Code) visit https://pir.sa.gov.au/biosecurity/animal_health/property_identification_code_pic

To order an NVD book or use the online NVD / eDec service visit https://lpa.nlis.com.au/Account/Login

To sell at the weekly market a current and financial LPA number is required. In any case to obtain the best possible sale price for your livestock, an LPA number is recommended.
