requi rement s for each s pecies in the hybrid.  
 
2.2 PRE-EXPOR T PHYTOSANITARY ACT IONS  
 
Before a ph ytosanitary certificate i s to be is sued, the exporting  country’s national p lant 
protectio n organisa tion must be satisf ied th at the follo wing general activities,  for each

2.3 MAXIMUM A LLOWABLE PREVALENC E (MAP ) 
 
The MAP for vi sually d etectable regula ted organisms on fresh  fruit/veget ables i s as follows:  
 
“At a 95% confidence  level, not more tha n 0.5% of the units in the c onsign ment are 
infested (this equat es to an acceptanc e level of zero units inf ested by reg ulated 
organisms i n a samp le size of 600 u nits)”. 
 
2.4 PRE -EXPOR T LOT INSPEC TION  
 
MPI requires th at the exporting cou ntry’s n ationa l plant pro tection organisati on (NP PO) 
sample a nd visually inspect the c onsignment a ccording to offici al proce dures for all th e 
regulated pests spec ified by MPI and en sure that it conforms wit h New Zeal and’s current 
import  requirements.  A ph ytosanit ary ce rtificate s hould not be issue d if l ive regulate d pest(s) 
are detected, u nless the co nsignment is treat ed in or der to eliminate  these. If pests are f ound 
which a re not listed in the specific co untry:comm odity import health standard issued for that 
commodity , the NPPO must establish the ir reg ulatory stat us. This information is a vailable in 
MPI’s “Biosecurity  Organis ms Register for Imported Commodities” 
http://archiv e.mpi.govt.nz/applic ations/b oric.  
 
If a pe st 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  
 
Testi ng of cons ignme nts prior to exp ort to New Zealand,  for regu lated  pests whic h are not 
visually  detec table, is no t (generally) required fo r fresh frui t/vegetables.  
 
2.6 TRANSIT  REQUIREMENTS  
 
2.6.1  Consignments transiting a nother cou ntry en route to New Zealand 
 
The NPPO m ust ensur e tha t the consi gnment (prior to e xport)  is held in a manner to ensure 
that i nfestation/r einfestation does not occu r following phyt osanitary certificatio n. Appropria te 
procedures must also be in pl ace to ens ure that unauthorised  product cannot be substitut ed, o r 
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 stored, split up or has  its packa ging changed while 
in that country (or c ountries)  en route to New  Zealand, a “Re -export C ertificate” is required.  
 
Where a con signment is held under bond, a s a resu lt of the need t o change conveyances, and 
it is kept in the original container, a “Re-export  Certificate” is not required.

4.4 SAMPLING  
 
A sample shall* be tak en from each lot a s specified in the app ropriate sam pling p lan detailed 
below. Sampl es may be taken from any part of the lot and shall  include a  selection of 
cartons/packages fr om dif ferent areas  of the lot. To ensure a representa tive sample is selec ted 
for inspection, cons ideration should be gi ven to selec ting ca rtons from different grow er lines, 
differ ent pallets, diff erent brands and different locations withi n the consignment.  
 
Wher e the produc e within a lot or consi gnment has the same scientific n ame (e .g. Brassica 
olera cea), but the produce differs in physical  characteristics (e.g. va rietal dif ferenc es such as 
brusse l sprouts and bro ccoli), th e composition o f the sample selec ted fo r inspection  shall 
include an equal  proportion of each variety of p roduce . 
 
The importer ma y nomi nate the size of  sample, indicated by the options in the tab les below,  
befor e the inspection is carried out. O nce the sa mple  size has b een selected, the total sample 
shall  be inspected (e.g. it is not permi ssible to stop at 60 0 unit s when a 950 sampl e was 
originally selec ted). 
 
If the impor ter has not nominated a s ample size , “opt ion 1” shall be u sed.

for U ncleared Goods   
 
Each individual u nit within the sample sha ll be examined by an ins pector, along with the

disease, soil or  any other non -conformity with this  stand ard. 
 
4.6 PACKAGING  
 
Packaging ass ociated with fresh fruit /vegetables must be clean, free from soil and other

4.8 CONSIGNMEN T RECONCILIATION  
 
Three tiers of compliance check will be used to valid ate phytosanitary c ertification details 
(e.g. number o f pack ages, consignment composition) aga inst the actual consignme nt. These 
are, for each importer:  
 
(i) A compliance check on every consignment for ten consecutive consignments;  
(ii) A rando m compliance check on  one in ten consign ments; and  
(iii) A random compliance chec k on o ne in twenty consignments.  
 
Initia lly, one complete complia nce check, selected rand omly, per ten consignments shall be 
carried out to validate phytosanitary certification deta ils (e.g. number of p ackages, 
consignmen t composition) against the actual c onsign ment. Where significant compliance  is 
demonstrated over tim e (ie. ten consecutive c ompliance checks validate conformance), the 
regime can be raised to one complete compliance check per twenty cons ignm ents. 
 
If a com pliance check identifies a non -conformanc e (e.g. undeclared product), the l evel of 
compliance check will drop a tier. For ex ample, if a one in twenty compliance check 
identifies a non -conformance, the level of compli ance check for the of fending pathway wil l 
reduce to the one in ten complian ce che ck tier. Or, if a one in ten compl iance check identifies 
a non-conformance, the nex t ten consignments from the offending pathway shall be fully 
reconciled.
