Start of the fumigation season for export containers to Australia and New Zealand
The Australian Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry prescribes that export containers, flat racks and break bulk to Australia are to be treated to prevent the introduction of the brown marmorated stink bug (BMSB), which would cause major damage to the country’s biodiversity. This also applies to New Zealand.
For export, containers must present a fumigation certificate in the period from 01.09.2024 – 30.04.2025 (date of shipment in each case) in order to be allowed to be discharged in Australia and New Zealand.
