2 General Import Requirements
2.1 Scope
This import health standard describes the phytosanitary requirements that must be met for Bark to be given biosecurity clearance into New Zealand.

3 Specific Import Requirements for Bark
3.1 General Requirements
3.1.1 Imported bark includes items such as bark chips, cork, or items containing unprocessed bark.
3.1.2 Ground or fine chopped bark imported as a food additive is exempt from the requirements of this import health standard.
3.1.3 A consignment of bark must be:
- free of regulated pests (see Appendix 1 (a));
- no greater in volume than 40 cubic metres;
- shipped in lots of no more than 2 cubic metres in volume and packaged in clear plastic wrapping (if shipped in bulk);
- packed and shipped in a manner that prevents infestation and/or contamination by regulated pests. MAF considers the following as examples of appropriate packaging: plastic wrapping, 6 sided boxing, closed shipping containers;
- relatively free of extraneous material (e.g. leaves, soil). MAF considers a contamination rate of 0.01% w/w extraneous material is considered acceptable.
3.2 Treatment Requirements
3.2.1 Any treatment completed prior to import must comply with the requirements of this import health standard, or an equivalent treatment(s) approved by MAF.
3.2.2 If the bark is fumigated or heat-treated prior to export the bark must be treated no more than twenty-one (21) days before export to New Zealand.
3.3 Treatment Options
MAF accepts one or more of the following treatment options for bark.
3.3.1 Fumigation, in separate units no larger than 2 m3, with methyl bromide at the rates and temperatures indicated in the table below, for more than 24 continuous hours.
| Concentration (g/m3) | Temperature (°C) |
|---|---|
| 72 | 6 - 10 |
| 64 | 11 - 15 |
| 56 | 16 - 20 |
| 48 | 20+ |
3.3.2 Heat treatment for more than 4 hours at a minimum continuous core temperature of 70°C.
3.4 Certification Requirements
3.4.1 An import permit is not required to import bark into New Zealand.
3.4.2 For the purpose of providing certification of the treatment status of consignments to be imported into New Zealand, the importer may use a:
- phytosanitary certificate issued by the NPPO and based on the model certificate included in ISPM 12;
- phytosanitary certificate issued by the NPPO other than the certificate specified in (a) to which the following is to be included;
"The bark in this consignment has been inspected according to appropriate official procedures and are considered to be free from the regulated pests specified by MAF, and to conform with New Zealand's current phytosanitary requirements". - treatment certificate issued by the manufacturer or operator/manager of the treatment company.
3.4.3 All certification must be original, free of alterations and erasures, and printed in English.
3.5 Certificate Information
3.5.1 If used, a certificate must contain the following information:
- A full description of the consignment and wood component
- All relevant identification marks and brands
- The number and/or volume of items treated
- The container number (where applicable)
- The following additional declarations (where applicable)
3.5.2 Certificates for consignments that have been fumigated may contain the following declaration:
"The bark has been fumigated, in units no larger than 2 m3, with methyl bromide at _ (Fumigant concentration (g/m3)) _ for _ (Duration of treatment) _ at a minimum temperature of __ (Minimum temperature during treatment) __ on the _ (Date of treatment (dd/mm/yy) _."
3.5.3 Certificates for consignments that have been heat-treated may contain the following declaration:
"The bark has been heated for __ (Duration of treatment) __ at a minimum core temperature of __ (Minimum core temperature during treatment) __ on the __ (Date of treatment (dd/mm/yy) __."
3.6 Transit Rrequirements
3.6.1 Where a consignment is split or has its packaging changed while in another country (or countries) en route to New Zealand, a "Re-export Certificate" issued by a NPPO is required where the treatment of the bark has been certified.
3.6.2 Where a consignment is held under bond as a result of the need to change conveyances and is kept in the original shipping container, a "Re-export Certificate" is not required.
4 Requirements on Arrival in New Zealand
The importer shall meet all costs specified in the Biosecurity (Costs) Regulations (2003) associated with the inspection, treatment (if required) and clearance of goods imported under this standard.
4.1 Inspection on Arrival in New Zealand
4.1.1 New Zealand MAF will check the accompanying documentation on arrival to confirm that it reconciles with the actual consignment.
4.1.2 If original and appropriate certification is NOT provided the bark will be considered untreated.
4.1.3 If the bark was NOT packaged in a manner considered by MAF to adequately protect the bark from re-infestation after treatment, or was NOT shipped within the required time period after treatment, the bark will be considered untreated.
4.1.4 Each consignment of:
- untreated commercially imported bark will be treated (fumigated or heat treated as per the treatment specifications stated in section 3.3), reshipped, or destroyed.
- treated commercially imported bark have will have an 8 kg random sample (or whole consignment, whichever is the lesser) inspected for evidence of pests or extraneous organic material to verify that the treatment was effective.
- privately imported bark will either be inspected for evidence of pests or extraneous organic material (e.g. leaves, twigs, soil), or treated (as per the treatment specifications stated in section 3.3), reshipped, or destroyed if considered likely to harbour pests.
4.1.5 All inspections completed on arrival in New Zealand of commercial consignments shall be carried out in a transitional facility approved by MAF for that purpose.
4.2 Actions Undertaken on the Interception/Detection of Organisms/Contaminants
4.2.1 All organisms detected on the bark shall be identified to determine the regulatory status of the organism regardless of the treatment(s) or action(s) undertaken.
4.2.2 If regulated pests are intercepted/detected on the commodity, or associated packaging, the following actions will be undertaken as appropriate (depending on the pest identified, see Appendix 1(a)):
- Reshipment of the consignment or lot;
- Destruction of the consignment or lot;
- Treatment (where possible) of the consignment or lot at the discretion of the Director, Forest Biosecurity;
- The suspension of trade, until the cause of the non-compliance is investigated, identified and rectified to the satisfaction of New Zealand MAF.
4.2.3 Lots contaminated with greater than 0.01% w/w soil or other extraneous organic material (e.g. leaves, twigs) shall have the contaminating material removed (if possible), or be treated, re-shipped or destroyed.
4.2.4 All treatments completed on arrival in New Zealand shall be carried out in a transitional facility approved by MAF for that purpose. Goods treated under MAF supervision do not require further inspection under this standard.
4.3 Biosecurity Clearance
4.3.1 If the requirements of this import health standard have been met, and regulated pests are not detected or are successfully treated following interception/detection, biosecurity clearance will be given.
