   2. IMPORTER'S RESPONSIBILITIES 
2.1 The costs to MAF in performing functions relating to the importation of the 
commodity shall be recovered in accordance with the Biosecurity Act 1993 and any regulations made under that Act. 
2.2  All costs involved with the importation, which include documentation, pre-export 
isolation, selection, testing, treatment, transport, quarantine, supervision and obtaining a biosecurity authorisation and/or biosecurity clearance shall be borne by the importer or agent. MAFBNZ shall not accept any liability for any losses sustained through quarantine procedures if fish are destroyed because of disease or parasites, or because they are prohibited species. 
2.3  The importer shall make all arrangements for transport and obtain necessary transit 
authorities from any third countries on the transport route. 
2.4  Where required, the consignment must be accompanied by a permit to export by the 
legislation of the country of origin and the Convention on the International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES): www.cites.org 
. The importer is advised to clarify the status 
of the species in relation to international agreements on their trade, prior to export. Ornamental fish or marine invertebrates arri ving in New Zealand without a permit to export 
may be subject to seizure by the New Zealand Department of Conservation. 
2.5  It is the importer’s responsibility to ensure that they are compliant with the current 
version of the relevant import health standard at the time of importation into New Zealand. Current versions of import health standards are available online at www.biosecurity.govt.nz/commercial-imports/import-health-standards/search
 
2.6  The importer must notify the supervisor of the transitional facility a minimum of 72 hours before the expected time of arrival of each consignment. 
 
3. DEFINITIONS 
Batch 
All ornamental fish or marine invertebrates of the same species in the same shipment and any 
other ornamental fish or marine invertebrates sharing the direct water system that are susceptible to any pathogens from Appendix 1 in common with these fish.  
Note: Where water flow connects tanks, water treatments between tanks must be pre-
approved by MAFBNZ for these tanks to be considered as not in the same direct water system
. Water systems will not be considered separate if there is contamination of water 
between tanks via equipment or practices.

   Batch test  
A representative number of fish (as determined by the supervisor and MAFBNZ) tested to 
show that the batch of fish is free from a specified disease of concern.  
Note: The number of fish required for a batch test will vary with such factors as the species 
of fish, number of fish in the batch and the disease agent being investigated, and will be determined by MAFBNZ on a case basis.  
Biosecurity clearance  
A clearance under section 26 of the Biosecurity Act (1993) for the entry of goods into New 
Zealand. 
Biosecurity authorisation 
Written authority from an inspector, given under section 25 of the Biosecurity Act (1993), to 
move uncleared goods from a transitional facility or biosecurity control area to another transitional facility, containment facility or biosecurity control area, or to re-export those goods from New Zealand. 
Chief Technical Officer  
A person appointed by the Director-General as  a Chief Technical Officer under section 101 
of the Biosecurity Act (1993). High risk fish species  
Species of ornamental fish or marine invertebrates with approval to be imported to New 
Zealand that are susceptible to one or more diseases listed in Appendix 1 of this import health standard. These ornamental fish or marine invertebrates are listed in Appendix 1. 
Inspector 
A person who is appointed an inspector under section 103 of the Biosecurity Act (1993). 
Low risk fish species 
Species of ornamental fish or marine invertebrates with approval to be imported to New 
Zealand (ornamental fish and marine invertebrates listed in Appendix 2 and not specifically listed in Appendix 1).  
 
MAFBNZ  
MAF Biosecurity New Zealand. 
Source population test 
A representative number of fish from the source fish population tested to show that the 
source population is free from a specified dis ease of concern. Any fish from the source  
 
 
Import Health Standard for Ornamental Fish and Marine Invertebrates from All Countries 
FISORNIC.ALL 1 November 2010 Page 4 of 73
   population destined for export to New Zealand must not come into contact with other fish of 
a lower health status prior to or during exportation.  
 
Source population freedom 
Source population freedom from disease may be established under conditions specified 
between Competent Authorities of the exporting country and New Zealand, or based on standards set by the World Organization for Animal Health (OIE). Source population freedom may be based on disease testing history for a country, zone, compartment or farm, or ongoing surveillance and the presence of biosecurity mechanisms to protect that country, zone, compartment or farm.  
 
Supervisor 
The supervising veterinarian of the transitional facility. 
 
Transitional facility  
Means (a) any place approved as a transitional facility in accordance with section 39 of the 
Biosecurity Act (1993) for the purpose of insp ection, testing, storage, treatment, holding or 
destruction of uncleared goods; or (b) a part of a port declared to be a transitional facility in accordance with section 39 of the Biosecurity Act (1993).  
4. EQUIVALENCE 
4.1 The import health standard has been agreed as suitable for trade between the exporting and the importing countries. It is expected that the consignment will meet the conditions in every respect. 
4.2 Occasionally it is found that, due to circumstances beyond the control of the importer 
or exporter, a consignment does not comply with this import health standard. In such cases, an application for equivalence may be considered, equivalence granted and a permit to import issued at the discretion of MAF Biosecur ity New Zealand, but only if the following 
information is forwarded by the certifying government's veterinary authority: 
 which clause/s of the import health standard cannot be met and how this has occurred; 
 the reason the consignment is considered to be of an "equivalent health" status;  
 the reasons why the veterinary authority of the country of origin believe this proposal should be acceptable to the New Zealand Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry and their recommendation for its acceptance.

PART C: CLEARANCE PROCEDURE 
9. BIOSECURITY AUTHORISATION  
 
 
Import Health Standard for Ornamental Fish and Marine Invertebrates from All Countries 
FISORNIC.ALL 1 November 2010 Page 7 of 73
   9.1 Upon arrival in New Zealand the documentation accompanying the consignment shall 
be made available to the inspector at the port of arrival. The inspector shall, having verified that all the required documentation is present, issue a written biosecurity authorisation to the importer or agent for the consignment to move from the airport to the approved transitional facility named on the permit to import by the quickest practicable route. If there are any certification problems the supervisor shall be notified. 
9.2 The inspector shall notify the supervisor  of the transitional facility that the 
consignment has been issued a biosecurity authorisation to move to the facility.  9.3 The outer containers holding the contai ners of ornamental fish and marine 
invertebrates must be sealed with tamper-evident seals, such as MAF-approved tape or seal, 
to ensure that biosecurity is maintained between place of first arrival and the quarantine facility. 
10. QUARANTINE IN NEW ZEALAND 
10.1 At the transitional facility the supervisor shall inspect the seals before the containers are opened and verify during unloading that the species and approximate numbers of ornamental fish and marine invertebrates within the consignment are as recorded on the accompanying documentation.  In cases where identification of fish or marine invertebrates is in doubt the supervisor may seek advice from MAFBNZ, and the operator of the transitional facility must provide proof of identity. 
10.2 All high-risk ornamental fish and marine invertebrates on the documentation shall be 
highlighted. 
10.3 If there is a discrepancy between the species of ornamental fish and/or marine 
invertebrates in the consignment and those recorded in Appendix 2 of this import health standard, non-approved ornamental fish and inve rtebrates must be re-shipped or destroyed 
under MAF supervision. 
10.4 Ornamental fish and marine invertebrate s from Appendix 2 must be held in the 
facility named in the permit to import for a quarantine period of not less than four weeks in 
the case of freshwater fish, and not less than three weeks in the case of marine fish and marine invertebrates.  
10.5 Ornamental fish and marine invertebrates from Appendix 2 not specifically listed in 
Appendix 1, identified as ‘low-risk’ species, that  are clinically healthy at the end of the 
quarantine period are eligible for clearance (unless otherwise directed by the supervisor as a result of clauses 10.7–10.10).   
10.6 Ornamental fish and marine invertebrates from Appendix 1, identified as ‘high risk’ 
species, must meet additional pre-quarantine or quarantine measures before clearance. The requirements for each high-risk species are recorded in Appendix 1. The operator must  
 
 
Import Health Standard for Ornamental Fish and Marine Invertebrates from All Countries 
FISORNIC.ALL 1 November 2010 Page 8 of 73
   demonstrate and record how each high risk species has met the additional requirements of 
Appendix 1.  
10.7 Coral must be live on arrival in New Zealand. Viability will be assessed by activity of 
the polyps being apparent. All corals must be cultured on clean bases. All visible contamination by animals and plants and other material must be removed from the live coral on arrival at the transitional facility. The live coral must be held in suitable growing conditions to allow any pest species to grow to a visible size during the quarantine period. Live corals must be free of any visible hitchhi ker organisms before they are given biosecurity 
clearance. 
10.8 All plastic bags and other packaging in direct contact with the fish or transport water 
and any solid waste (such as dead fish and fi sh waste) must be collected, double-bagged, and 
held for inspection by the supervisor. Disposal will follow biosecurity clearance at the end of the quarantine period. Where an exotic disease has been identified, or the operator has chosen euthanasia of fish instead of a disease investigation, disposal must be by a process approved by MAFBNZ, such as autoclaving, incineration or steam sterilisation. The operator of the transitional facility must maintain records of disposal of material associated with disease investigations, which may be audited by MAFBNZ. 
10.9 All plant material associated with imported ornamental fish and marine invertebrates 
must be disposed of by a process approved by MAFBNZ such as autoclaving, incineration or steam sterilisation. 
10.10 Packaging not in direct contact with the fish or transport water (eg cardboard boxes 
and polystyrene bins) may be released at any time if treated as per the Approved Biosecurity Treatments for Risk Goods Directed for Treatment: http://www.biosecurity.govt.nz/border/transitional-facilities/bnz-std-abtrt
. 
10.11 Packaging not in direct contact with the fish or transport water may be cleared at the end of the quarantine period without requiring treatment if an exotic disease has not been diagnosed or the operator has not chosen euthanasia of fish instead of a disease investigation.  
10.12 Ornamental fish and marine invertebrates must be available for inspection when 
requested by the supervisor.  
10.13 The supervisor may authorise any diagnostic tests deemed appropriate based on 
clinical signs of illness or death of ornamental fish or marine invertebrates if no evidence has been presented by the operator as to an environmental cause for the health problems and the condition appears to be due to systemic disease. In such circumstances, the importer shall be given the option to test the fish (at the importer’s expense) or destroy/reship affected fish (see 
10.9) under supervision of the supervisor. Testing or the decision not to test, and the consequences of this testing (as per MAF Standard 154.02.06 Transitional Facilities for 
Ornamental Fish and Marine Invertebrates from All Countries ) must be completed before 
other fish in the shipment are cleared.   
 
 
Import Health Standard for Ornamental Fish and Marine Invertebrates from All Countries 
FISORNIC.ALL 1 November 2010 Page 9 of 73
   10.14 All disease testing shall be conducted at the Investigation and Diagnostic Centre of 
Biosecurity New Zealand, Upper Hutt, Wellington. 
10.15   Where offshore quarantine is pre-approved by MAFBNZ, or compartment, zone or 
country freedom from the 19 hazards is demonstrated by acceptable zoosanitary certification and pre-approved by MAFBNZ, post arrival quarantine may not be required.  
 
11.  BIOSECURITY CLEARANCE 
11.1 At the end of the quarantine period the consignment may, subject to sections 27 and 
28 of the Biosecurity Act 1993, be given biosecurity clearance pursuant to section 26 of the Biosecurity Act 1993, providing documentation meets all requirements (under ‘Documentation accompanying the consignment’ and in the MAF Biosecurity New Zealand Standard 154.02.06 Transitional facilities for ornamental fish and marine invertebrates ) to 
the satisfaction of the supervisor. 
11.2  Consignments that do not meet New Zealand’s import requirements will remain in 
quarantine control, or be re-exported or destroyed as deemed appropriate by the supervisor, and at the importer’s expense .
