For the 2019-20 BMSB risk season, heightened biosecurity measures will apply to certain goods manufactured in, or shipped from target risk countries, and/or vessels that berth at, load or tranship from target risk countries.

 

The measures apply to goods shipped from 1 September 2019 that arrive in Australian territory by 31 May 2020 (inclusive).

​

Goods shipped between 1 September 2019 and 30 April 2020 need to be treated, and will be referred for intervention if they arrive by 31 May 2020 (inclusive).

​

For goods that are shipped prior to 30 April 2020 and arrive after 31 May 2020, they may be subject to intervention as required.
