1.4 EXPLANATION OF PEST CATEGORIES  
 
New Zealand MPI categori ses pests associated with plants and plant p roducts into regulated 
and non-regulated pests. Measure s to prevent the establishment of regulated pests in New 
Zealand are developed in accordance with the appropria te FAO ISPMs and other relevant 
international standards.  
 
Regulated pest s are those pests for which actions would be  undertaken if they were 
intercepted/detected. As well as quarantine pests, these include pests that may pose a risk to 
human or animal heal th or to the environment, vectors of associate d quarantine pests, and 
virulent strains (no t present in New Zealand) of non-regulated pests and co ntaminants. Non -
regulated pests are those pests for which actions would not be undertaken if they were 
intercep ted/detected.  
 
 
OFFSHORE PHYTOSANITARY REQUIRE MENTS  
 
2.1 GENERAL  
 
All fresh f ruit and vegetables are prohibited entry into New Zealand unless they are covered 
by a valid import health stan dard. 
 
Unless specified, a completed phytosani tary certificate issued by  the exporting cou ntry’s 
national plant prot ection organisation must acco mpany all consignments of fresh fruit/ 
vegetables exported to New Zealand.  
  
Ministry for Primary Industries  Standard:  
152.02:  Importation and Clearance of Fresh Fruit and Vegetables into New Zeala nd  16 February 2021  The phytosanitary certificate shall  contain all information as detailed in Intern ational 
Standard for Phyto sanitary Measures,  Publication No. 12 (2011)  – Guidelines for 
Phytosanita ry Certificates . 
 
Hybrids between species can be imported but only when each species has an approved 
country: c ommodity schedule in Appendix 1. The hybrid mu st meet the schedule 
requi rements for each s pecies in the hybrid.  
 
2.2 PRE-EXPORT PHYTOSANITARY ACT IONS  
 
Before a phytosanitary certificate is to be issued, the e xporting country’s national plant 
protection o rganisation must be satisf ied that the follo wing general activities, f or each 
consignment, have bee n undertaken.  
 
For risk group 1 (RG1) pests, either of the following activities may apply:  
 
• inspected in accord ance with appropriate official procedures and found to be free 
of any vi sually detectable regulated pests specified by  MPI. 
 
OR 
 
• been sourced fr om a pest free area, as verified by an official detection survey, for 
those regulated organisms specified by MPI for which there is no practical means 
of ins pection or testing.  
 
AND  
 
For risk group 2 p ests (RG2), either of the following activities may appl y: 
 
• undergone appropriate pest control activities that are effective for those risk group 
2 quarantine pests sp ecified by MPI. 
 
OR 
 
• been sourced from a pest free area, as verified by official detection  survey, for 
those risk gr oup 2 quarantine pests as spe cified by MPI. 
 
AND  
 
For risk group 3 pests (RG3), the following activity applies:  
 
• undergone an agreed treatme nt that is effective against RG3 pests.  
 
2.3 MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE PREVALENC E (MAP)  
 
The MAP for vi sually detectable regulated organisms on fresh fruit/vegetables is as follows:  
 
“At a 95% confidence level, not  more than 0.5% of the units in the consignmen t are 
infested (this equat es to an acceptanc e level of zero units infe sted by regulated 
organisms i n a sample size of 600 units)”.  
  
Ministry for Primary Industries  Standard:  
152.02:  Importation and Clearance of Fresh Fruit and Vegetables into New Zeala nd  16 February 2021  2.4 PRE -EXPORT LOT INSPECTION  
 
MPI requires that the exporting country’s national p lant protection organisati on (NPPO) 
sample a nd visually inspect the co nsignment according to offici al procedures for all the 
regulated pests specified by MPI and ensure that it conforms with New Zealand’s curre nt 
import requirements.  A phytosanitary certi ficate should not be issue d if live regulate d pest(s) 
are detected, un less the consignment is treat ed in order to eliminate these. If pests are found 
which are not listed in the specific country:commodity impor t health standard issued for that 
commodity, t he NPPO must establish the ir regulatory stat us. This information is av ailable in 
MPI’s “Biosecurity  Organisms Register for Imported Commodities” 
http://archive.mpi.govt.nz/applications/boric .  
 
 
If a pest is not listed i n this register, t he NPPO must contact MPI to establish the regulatory 
status of the pest.  
 
2.5 PRE -EXPORT LOT TESTING  
 
Testing of consignments pr ior to export to New Zealand, for regulated pe sts which are not 
visually  detectable, is no t (generally) required for  fresh fruit/vegetables.  
 
2.6 TRANSIT REQUIREMENTS  
 
2.6.1  Consignments transiting another country en rou te to New Zealand  
 
The NPPO must ensure that t he consignment (prior to e xport) is held in a manner to ensure 
that in festation/reinfestation does not occur following phytosanitary certification. Appropriate 
procedures must also be in place to ensure that un authorised product cannot be substituted, or 
added to, cleared consignme nts. 
 
Packages mus t not be opened in transit .  Where a consignment is und er the direct control of 
the transiting country NPPO and is either stored, split up or has its packaging change d while 
in that country (or countries) en rout e to New  Zealand, a “Re -export Certificate” is required.  
 
Where a cons ignment is held under bond, a s a result of the need to change conveyances, and 
it is kept in the original container, a “Re -export Certificat e” is not required.  
 
2.6.2  Consignments transi ting New Zealand en route to another country  
All consignments of fresh  fruit/vegetables landed in N ew Zealand en route to another country 
(transiting) must be held and secured at the port of arrival.  In additi on, appropriate 
procedures must be implemented  to ensure that the integr ity of the consign ment is maintained 
(e.g. u npackaged commodities or comm odities that are shipped in “open door” containers, 
must be immediately pest proofed and/or treated, to prevent  the accidental escape of pests).

Note : Where an inspector is confident that the produce was maintained under quarantine security durin g 
overseas inspection, and quarantine security  was maintained following inspection, inspec tion on arrival in New 
Zealand is not necessary.  
Note : Where consignments consist of multiple containers any unopened containers with orginal seals intact are 
conside red to be “unopened” and the sampling will be based on the remaining “op ened” containers.  
 
4.4 SAMPLING  
 
A sample shall* be taken from each lot as specified in the appropriate sampling plan detailed 
below. Samples may be taken from any part of the lot and shall include a select ion of 
cartons/packages fr om different areas  of the lot. To ensure a r epresentative sample is selec ted 
for inspection, consideration should be given to selecting cartons from different grower lines, 
different p allets, different brands and different locatio ns within the consignment.  
 
Where the produc e within a lot or consignm ent has the same scientific n ame (e.g. Brassica 
oleracea), but the produce differs in physical characteristics (e.g. varietal differences su ch as 
brussel sprouts and broccoli), the compo sition of the sample selec ted for inspection  shall 
include an equal pr oportion of each variety of p roduce.  
 
The importer may nominate the size of sample, indicated by the options in the tables below, 
before the  inspection is carried out. Once the sample si ze has been selected, the total sample  
Ministry for Primary Industries  Standard:  
152.02:  Importation and Clearance of Fresh Fruit and Vegetables into New Zeala nd  16 February 2021  shall  be inspected (e.g. it is not permissible to stop at 60 0 units when a 950 sample was 
originally selected).  
 
If the importer has not nominated a sample size, “option 1 ” shall be used.

4.5 INSPECTION  
 
All inspections of imported fresh fruit and vegetables shall be carried out at an approved 
transitional facili ty (refer MPI Standard MPI-STD-TFGEN: General Transitional Facilities 
for Uncleared Goods   
 
Each individual unit within the sample shall be examined by an inspector, along with the 
package in which they were contained, for the presence of pests, seeds, sig ns or symptoms of 
disease, soil or any other non -conformity with this standard.  
 
4.6 PACKAGING  
  
Ministry for Primary Industries  Standard:  
152.02:  Importation and Clearance of Fresh Fruit and Vegetables into New Zeala nd  16 February 2021  Packaging associated with fresh fruit/vegetables must be clean, free from soil and other 
contaminants.  
 
4.7 TESTING  
 
Testing of the consignment for regulated pests which are not visually detectable, is not 
(generally) required for fresh fruit/vegetables.  
 
4.8 CONSIGNMENT RECONCILIATION  
 
Three tiers of compliance check will b e used to validate phytosanitary certification details 
(e.g. number of packages, consignment composition) against the actual consignment. These 
are, for each importer:  
 
(i) A compliance check on every consignment for ten consecutive consignments;  
(ii) A random comp liance check on one in ten consignments; and  
(iii) A random compliance check on one in twenty consignments.  
 
Initially, one complete compliance check, selected randomly, per ten consignments shall be 
carried out to validate phytosanitary certification details (e .g. number of packages, 
consignment composition) against the actual consignment. Where significant compliance is 
demonstrated over time (ie. ten consecutive compliance checks validate conformance), the 
regime can be raised to one complete compliance check per twenty consignments.  
 
If a compliance check identifies a non -conformance (e.g. undeclared product), the level of 
compliance check will drop a tier. For example, if a one in twenty compliance check 
identifies a non -conformance, the level of compliance c heck for the offending pathway will 
reduce to the one in ten compliance check tier. Or, if a one in ten compliance check identifies 
a non -conformance, the next ten consignments from the offending pathway shall be fully 
reconciled.  
 
Where the composition of  the consignment appears to include deliberately concealed product 
MPI(plantimports@ mpi.govt.nz) should be notified immediately.  
 
4.9 PRE AND POST -INSPECTION SECURITY  
 
All* consignments of fresh fruit and veg etables which are not inspected immediately (i.e. 
within 4 -6 hours of arrival in New Zealand), shall be stored in a transitional facility until such 
time as they are inspected.  
 
All consignments of fresh fruit and vegetables not complying or suspected of n ot complying 
with the specifications detailed in this standard shall be stored in a transitional facility, until 
such time as they can be inspected and or cleared, reshipped or destroyed.  
 
*Note: Exception of Green/French Beans from Australia, which are su bject to a variable verification process.

The schedule of special entry conditions for fresh Citrus  spp. from Egypt has been 
suspended dated 26 February 2018. This means that fresh Citrus  spp. fro m Egypt is not 
eligible for import into New Zealand.  
 
 
The MPI Chief Technical Officer (CTO)  believes that based on new technical information, 
the current treatment rates used for fruit flies, Bactrocera zonata  and Ceratitis capitata , no 
longer manage the  risk to an app ropriate level and, therefore, does not enable the purposes of 
the Biosecurity  Act 1993 (Part 3) to be achieved.
