OUTLINE OF REQUIREMENTS  
 
This import health standard outl ines the requ irements that must be met prior to shipment, in -
transit and on arrival in New Zealand for fres h table gr apes imported from the Un ited States 
of America – State of California . 
 
This standard is replicated at the following Internet address:

NEW ZEALAND LEGISLAT IVE REQU IREMENTS AND 
INTERNATIONAL OBLIGATIONS  
 
All New Zealand  import health standards are based upon risk analyses, which may assess 
either a commodity or a pest/pathway combination. New Zealand’s legislative requ irements 
and international obligations ar e taken into account when conducting risk analyses and 
applying  the findings in the deve lopme nt of import health standards. The principal document 
for all New Zealand import health standards relating to plants and p lant products is the 
Biosecurity Act 1993, whilst  the international obligations derive principally from the 
guidelines on risk an alysis d eveloped under the auspices of the Interim Commission on 
Phytosanitary Measures operating within the framework of the I nternational Plant Protection 
Conventio n, and the  World Trade Organi zation Agreement on the Application  of Sanitary 
and Phytosani tary Mea sures.

2 General condit ions for the importatio n of all plants and plant 
products 
 
Plants and plant prod ucts are not permitted entry into New Zea land unless an import health 
standard has been issued in accordance with Section 2 4 (formerly s 2 2) of the Biosecurity 
Act 1993. Should  plants or plant products, for which no  import healt h standard exists, be 
interc epted by MPI Biosecurity New Zealand , the importer will b e offered the option of 
reshipment or destruction of the consignment ( at their expense).  
 
The NPPO of the exporting cou ntry is requested to inform MPI Biosecu rity New Zeal and of 
any change of address . 
 
The NPPO of the exporting country is required to infor m MPI Biosecurity  New Zealand  of

In order to meet the Environmental Protection  Authority ’s requir ements , the scientific name 
(i.e. genus and specie s) of the commodity must be included in  the phyto sanitary certificate.  
 
 
3 Explanation of pest categories  
 
MPI Biosecurity New Zealan d categorises pests associated with plants and plant products 
into regu lated and non -regulated pests. Measures to prevent the establishment of regulated 
pests in  New Zeala nd are developed in accordance  with the appropriate FAO ISPMs and 
other relevant inte rnational standards.  
 
Regulated pests are those pests for which actions w ould be undertaken if t hey were 
intercepted/detec ted. As well as quarantine pests, these  include n ew organisms as defined by 
the Hazardous Substances and New Organisms Act 1996, pests  that may pose a risk to 
human or animal health or to the environment, ve ctors of associated quarantine pests, and 
virulen t strains (not present in New Zealand) of non -regulated pests and contaminants . Non-
regulated pests are those pests for which actions would not be undertaken if they were 
intercepted/detected.  
 
Pests (includ ing weeds) associated with each commodity will ap pear on a separate pest list , 
which will  be attac hed to each import health stan dard as an Appendix.  
 
 
4 Application of measures  
 
A num ber of different measures may be applied to pests based on the outcome of pest risk 
analyses.  Required measures may includ e: 
 
- Surveillance for pest freedom  
- Testi ng prior to export for regulated pests which cannot be readily detected by 
inspection (e.g. vi ruses on propagating material)  
- Specific pre -shipment pest control activiti es to be undertaken by the supply

California   
XX xxxx  2022 
 
(Bios ecurity Act 1993)     11 
 country’s contr acting party  
- The application of a pre -shipment t reatment  
- Inspection of the exp ort consignment  
- Issuance of a phytosanitary certificate  which attests to the phytosanitary status of a 
consignment  
- Treatment on a rrival in New Zealand  
 
 
5 General conditions for  fresh fruit/vegetables for consumption  
 
Only cl ean, inert /synthetic material m ay be used for the protection, packaging and shipping 
of fresh fruit/vegetables . 
 
A completed phytosanitary certificate issued b y the exporting country’s NPPO must 
accompany all  consignments of fresh fruit and vegeta bles expo rted to New Zealand.  
 
MPI Biose curity New Zealand  will inspect all consignments of fre sh fruit and vegetables to 
verify that New Zealand’s phytosanitary requir ements have been met.  
 
Where it has been determin ed through pest risk assessment that hi gh impact  pests are 
associated with a pa rticular commodity more specific phytosanitary measures  must be met. 
In most circumstances these phytosanitary measures will nee d to be met prior to arrival of 
the commodity in New Zealand.  
 
 
6 Specific conditions f or table grapes (commodity sub -class: fre sh 
fruit/vegetables ) from the United States of America – State of 
California  
 
6.1 PRE -SHIPMENT REQUIREMENTS  
 
6.1.1  Inspection of the consignment  
 
MPI Biosecurity New Zealand  requires that the United States of Ameri ca NPPO s ample and 
visually inspect the co nsignment according to official procedures for all the regulated pests 
specified by MPI Biosecurity New Zealand  and ensure tha t it conforms with New Zealand’s 
current import r equirements. A phytosanitary certifica te should not be issued if live regulated 
pest(s) are detected, unless the consignment is treate d in order to eliminate these. If pests are 
found which are not listed in  the import health standard, the United States of  America  NPPO 
must establish their reg ulatory st atus. This information is availab le in MPI’s “Official New 
Zealand Pest Register ” https://pierpestregister .mpi.govt.nz/ . 
 
If a pest is not listed in this register, the United States of America  NPPO must  contact MPI  
IHS Fresh Fruit/Vegetable s. Vitis vin ifera from the Un ited States of America – State of 
California   
XX xxxx  2022 
 
(Bios ecurity Act 1993)     12 
 Biosecurity New Zeal and (see Section 1) to establish the regulatory status of the pest.  
 
6.1.2  Testing of the consignment  
 
Testing of the consignm ent prior to export to New Zealand for regulated pests which are not 
visually detectable (viz. fu ngi and bacteria) is not generall y required for fresh table grapes  
from the United State s of America  - State of California . 
 
6.1.3  Phytosanitary measures for high i mpact pests  
 
The strength of phytosanitary measur es will generally be greater for high im pact pests than 
for other regulated pests, reflecting the greater risks associated with the se pest s. In most 
circumstances phytosanitary measures for high impact pests  will need to be met prior to 
arrival of the comm odity in New Zealand, and phytosanitary certification will need to attest 
to this accordingly.  
 
MPI Biosecurity New Zealand  and the  United  States of America  NPPO have agreed to the 
use of  a pest free area  as a phytosanitary measure for the high impact frui t fly species 
associated with table grap es. 
 
MPI Biosecurity New Zealand  requires the United States of America  NPPO to undertake 
appropria te pest control activities for the other (non -fruit fly) high impact pests prior to the 
commodity arriving in New Zeal and. 
 
NOTE: “appropriate pest control ac tivities” is a broad term that inclu des a range of 
phytosanitary measures. Examples of thes e measures are pest free areas, physical exclusion 
(such as bagging o f fruit), chemical treatments etc.  
 
6.1.4  Documen tation  
 
Bilateral quarantine arrangeme nt/workplan:  Required  
 
Table grapes may only be imported into New Zealand from the United States of America 
(State of California) under the terms of the workplan.  
 
Phyto sanitary certificate: Required.  
 
Import  permit/Au thorisation to import:  Exempt under Ga zette Notice: No. AG12, 13 July 
1995.  
 
6.1.5  Phytosanitary certification  
 
A completed phytosanitary certificate issued by the United States of America  NPPO must 
accompan y all table grape  consignments exported to New Ze aland.
