2.1 Koalas to be exported from Australia must be isolated from non-export koalas for a minimum of 45 days prior to export. If more than one animal is being exported, they should preferably be housed separately in a manner that would prevent transmission of pathogens between animals. The animals may be housed in a group, however should an animal fail pre-export health screening due to the detection of an infectious disease, it may preclude the others from being exported.
