That is what I was told when I was in the process of getting my permit.
But you have to have the permit, you can't just send them the application form if it gets stopped (not sure if that is what you meant or not)
The customs officer said I can just fax the permit down, if it is required. Not sure if you have a permit yet or not, but it is extremely easy to get here in QLD if you don't have one yet.
