Will this change in the wood packaging standard change the role of accredited persons?
Yes it does change their role. Accredited persons should still be inspecting all wood packaging for pest such as insects and fungi but they must also record the ISPM 15 compliance status of the wood packaging on their container log sheets.
We recommend that non-compliant wood packaging be treated or destroyed.
