Permit-to-label project

The permit-to-label project was initiated to improve access to agricultural and veterinary (agvet) chemical products by migrating uses from current Australian Pesticides and Veterinary Medicines Authority (APVMA) permits to a registered product label. This initiative aims to provide greater certainty to industry through the registration of eligible use patterns, removing the need for industry to periodically apply to the APVMA for the renewal of permits.

Permit-to-label outcomes to date are listed below and the project has now been formally closed; however, applicants can still apply for ‘permit-to-label uses’ if the invitation remains relevant for your product.

Building on the success of this project, the APVMA is now exploring ways to incorporate the permit-to-label process into our core business in the future.

More information about the permit-to-label project and the invitation letters for use patterns registered through the project can be found on our website.
