“At a 95% confidence  level, not more tha n 0.5% of the units in the c onsign ment are 
infested (this eq uates to an acceptanc e level of zero units inf ested by regulated 
organ isms i n a samp le size of 600 u nits)”. 
 
2.4 PRE -EXPOR T LOT INSPE CTION  
 
MPI requires th at the exporting cou ntry’s n ationa l plant pro tection organis ation (NP PO) 
sample a nd visually inspect the c onsignme nt according to offici al proce dures for a ll the 
regulated pests specified by MPI and e nsure that it conforms wit h New Zeal and’s current 
import  requirements.  A ph ytosanit ary ce rtificate s hould not be is sued if live regulate d pest(s) 
are detected, u nless the consignment is  treated in or der to elim inate  these. If pests a re found 
which are not  listed in the specific co untry:comm odity import health standard issued for that 
commodity , the NPPO must establish their reg ulatory stat us. This information is a vailable in 
MPI’s “Offic ial New Zealand Pest R egister” (ONZPR)  https://pierpestregiste r.mpi.go vt.nz/.

that i nfestation/r einfestation does not occu r following phyt osanitary certificatio n. Appropria te 
procedures must also be in  place to ens ure that unauthorised  product cannot be  substit uted, or 
added to,  cleared consignme nts. 
 
Packages mus t not be opened in  transi t.  Where a consignment is und er the d irect control of  
the transiting countr y NPPO and i s eithe r store d, split up or has its packa ging changed while 
in that country (or countrie s) en route to New  Zealand, a “Re -export C ertificate” is requir ed. 
 
Wher e a con signment is held under bond, a s a resu lt of the need t o change conveyances, and 
it is ke pt in the orig inal container,  a “Re-export  Certificate” is not required.

(i) A compliance  check on  every consignment for ten consecutive consignments;  
(ii) A rando m compliance check on  one in ten consign ments; an d 
(iii) A random comp liance chec k on one in twenty consignments.  
 
Initia lly, one complete complia nce check, selected rand omly, per ten consignme nts shall  be 
carried out to validate phytosanitary certification deta ils (e.g. number of p ackages, 
consignmen t composi tion) against t he actu al consignment. Where significant compliance  is 
demonstrated over tim e (ie. ten consecutive c ompliance checks valida te confor mance), the 
regime can be raised to one complete compliance check per twenty cons ignm ents. 
 
If a com pliance c heck identifies  a non -conformance (e.g. undeclared product), the l evel of 
compliance check will drop a tier. For ex ample, if a one in twen ty compli ance check 
identifies a non -conformance, the level of compli ance check for the of fending pathway wil l 
reduce to the one in t en comp liance check tier. Or, if a one in ten compl iance check identifies 
a non-conformance, the nex t ten consignments from  the offe nding pathway shall be fully 
reconciled.
