Thus the remaining 33% either had no mark or Phytosanitary Certificate and with no live pests or signs of living pests. • Since the beginning of the year, the average compliance is about 64.5% (January-February: 70% / March-July: 63%/ August-November: 60.5%).

  3. Shipping WPM-Plywood to Australia • Shipping Crates or Boxes Constructed of Plywood/Veneer • Australia is now regulating plywood/veneer from many countries along with Canada. We cannot simply utilize plywood/veneer to produce crates and boxes we must prepare a document to certify that the plywood/veneer was manufactured by a reputable company and is not being re-used. • Please see the document attached. Simply use this on your letterhead and supply this to your customer. • Here are the rules documented in AQIS 76 page document titled “CARGO CONTAINERS – Quarantine Aspects & Procedures – November 15, 2006”

  4. Plywood to Australia • 1.3.4. Packing material made of newly manufactured plywood/ veneer • Packaging material made of plywood/ veneer is acceptable for facilitated quarantine clearance (that is release without inspection or further treatment) provided the plywood/ veneer is newly manufactured (i.e. not pre-used) and is manufactured in: • • All countries excluding Fiji, Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Vanuatu and Western Samoa within three months of shipment; or • • Fiji, Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Vanuatu and Western Samoa, within 21 days of shipment, • and in every case, accompanied by an acceptable certificate that includes the country of manufacture, the date of manufacture and a statement that the plywood/ veneer has not been pre-used (see Appendix VII for an example of an acceptable newly manufactured plywood/ veneer certificate). • Alternatively, packaging material made of either new or pre-used plywood/ veneer may qualify for facilitated clearance if treated offshore by an AQIS approved method (refer to Appendices I, II and III). Acceptable treatment certificates must accompany such consignments. • Upon arrival, packaging material made of plywood/ veneer that does not meet the newly manufactured requirements above or has not been appropriately treated offshore will be subject to treatment (refer to Appendices II and III), re-export or destruction with all options at the importer’s expense. • Import conditions for bulk imports of plywood/ veneer are provided in the AQIS Import Conditions database ICON, available at www.aqis.gov.au/icon.
