Yes, the buyer will typically need an import license to import discus fish. Import regulations for live animals, including fish, vary by country, and most countries require an import license or permit for the importation of live aquatic animals to ensure they meet health and safety standards. Additionally, the buyer may need to comply with other regulations, such as quarantine requirements and health certifications. It is advisable for the buyer to check the specific import requirements and regulations of their country before importing discus fish.

Prior to shipping, the Malaysian fishery department mandates a mandatory 7-days quarantine period for the fish. (14-days for Australia shipment) Our discus are transferred to our quarantine facility at least 7 days in advance, where they undergo inspection and are granted a health certificate before export.

Upon arrival, it is customary for newly arrived fish to undergo quarantine separate from any existing fish at the importer's premises. We strongly recommend that importers also conduct this quarantine process before selling the fish on the market.
