question on exporting

[MCMY]

Where can I find information about Australian Brandy and Wine Association and what their exporting policies are?
What should i look for in particular when exporting austrlian wines into asia markets(eg Japan)for distribution purposes?

Hi MCMY and welcome to the Wine Board. Maybe I'm missing something here. The local office of your Board of Trade, or state or national office, should be able to answer your questions about exporting from OZ and importing into Japan, et al. You can "google" the specific products and associations you are interested in. The only hook to look out for in your efforts is the "A" word; you know, alcohol. I think this is less of a problem outside of North America than it is here.
