National Vendor Declaration and Waybill (www.mla.com.au)
Producers use the NVD/Waybill to declare valuable information about the food safety status of the livestock being sold. Processors rely on the information to ensure only the safest food enters our food chain. The NVD is a travel document. The inclusion of animal movement information means the document can be legally used for declaring stock movements in those states that require travel documents (Waybill or Travelling Stock Statement) to accompany livestock movements.
