Ensure you have a PIC

Contact your state or territory department to organise a property identification code (PIC) or check that your property’s PIC is in your name. You can find a list of these contacts on the ISC website.


Order NLIS‑accredited eID devices


Set up your accounts


Move stock off your PIC

LPA-accredited producers can access the free electronic National Vendor Declarations (eNVD), while non-accredited producers can use a waybill.

Always check that the receiver has recorded the movement in the NLIS by conducting a search of the PIC Register.


Receive stock onto your PIC

Receivers are responsible for recording stock transfers on the NLIS within 48 hours of stock moving onto your PIC, even if the stock is coming from another PIC you own.


PIC reconciliations

Check the NLIS database to ensure it is an accurate record of NLIS devices and livestock on your property. Refer to the NLIS how-to guides for conducting a PIC reconciliation by either uploading a file or typing in the details.
