Plant Exports: Pre-Clearance Programmes
Production and Handling Site Identification Numbers (PHSIN)
USDA Pipfruit
A work plan has been developed which specifies the United States Department of Agriculture's (USDA) pre-export inspection requirements for pipfruit (apples, pears and nashi) exported from New Zealand for the USA.
The work plan gives generic requirements and working procedures for all parties involved in the pre-clearance programme. When the requirements of the work plan are met, USDA inspected, passed and clearly identified pipfruit will receive early release on arrival in the USA.
