BMSB Season is fast approaching and here is what you need to know!
The BMSB seasonal measures will apply to targeted goods manufactured in or shipped from target risk countries, that have been shipped between the 1st September to the 30th April (inclusive), and to vessels that berth, load, or tranship from target risk countries within the same period.
What’s New
9 August 2024
- Addition of China and Republic of Korea to the heightened vessel surveillance list.
- Introduction of AusTreat for offshore treatment providers.
In short, if you were importing during previous BMSB seasons, many of the measures remain unchanged.
For shipments through Aurora’s freight-forwarding department, our team will qualify whether BMSB fumigation is required and will carry out the required treatment.
If you wish to conduct your own research into target risk goods, target risk countries and treatment requirements, please visit the Department of Agriculture’s website for the relevant information.
Alternatively contact our friendly team, our trained Customs professionals are here to assist you.
