Introduction
1 Purpose
The purpose of this document is to define the information requirements which must be met to support assessment of non-commodity concerns associated with imported cargo only.
The policies supporting AQIS intervention on shipping containers under the Giant African Snail National Co-ordination Centre activities, the External Container Inspection Regime and the Empty Container Scheme are not within the scope of this policy.
2 Background
AQIS assesses the quarantine risk posed by imported cargo from two main perspectives – commodity and non-commodity concerns. Where commodity concerns represent the inherent likelihood of those goods introducing an exotic pest or disease to Australia, non-commodity concerns consider the transportation pathways and packaging amongst other factors in determining the level of quarantine risk posed. In line with longstanding AQIS policy, it is preferred that quarantine risk be managed prior to importation wherever possible. The subject of this policy is the required information and supporting documentation or certification to give AQIS confidence that these measures have been applied. Although information is not routinely required for assessment for some cargo types, compliance with import requirements for non-commodity concerns remains the importer’s responsibility. For example, all timber packaging and dunnage remains subject to mandatory treatment requirements irrespective of whether timber packaging statements are routinely required for the applicable cargo type.
As non-commodity concerns relate primarily to packaging and transportation issues, AQIS has standard information requirements that must be met for each non-commodity concern. AQIS is mindful that differing cargo types (such as air versus sea cargo and containerised versus break bulk) are dealt with in different ways on arrival in Australia. As this allows non-commodity concerns to be dealt with in different ways, AQIS delineates its information requirements by cargo type to ensure that only the information essential for assessment is provided.
This document outlines:
a) Standard non-commodity concerns
b) Information required in relation to each of the standard non-commodity concerns
c) Standard non-commodity concerns to be addressed by each cargo type.
This document forms the basis of an AQIS officer’s assessment of non-commodity concerns for imported cargo and replaces much of the longstanding publication “Cargo Containers: Quarantine Aspects and Procedures” (commonly referred to as the Cargo Containers Booklet). It is also the technical reference that informs Customs Brokers in their assessments of non-commodity concerns under the Broker Accreditation Schemes.
3 Critical outcome(s)
The critical outcomes from the formulation of the non-commodity policy and requirements are as follows:
- Provide parameters to support AQIS officers in determining the level of non-commodity based quarantine risk posed by an imported consignment and the appropriate level of intervention to be applied
- Define information requirements to support AQIS officers in determining the level of non-commodity based quarantine risk posed by an imported consignment
- Define the parameters for acceptability of the information presented for non-commodity assessment.

Note: Transhipments, personal effects, airfreight, bulk (in hold) and break bulk are outside the scope of the Broker Accreditation Schemes
10 Cargo types exempt from standard non-commodity information requirements
Transhipment of Cargo
Cargo that is being transhipped, other than ships’ stores to be used on cruise vessels, is exempt from all non-commodity information requirements. Consignments of ships’ stores to be used on cruise vessels are subject to mandatory reporting to AQIS and are required to meet all non-commodity information requirements relating to the applicable cargo type.
AQIS Action in Relation to Transhipments
As transhipments (other than ships’ stores) are not routinely reported to AQIS, no action is taken in relation to these cargoes.
Personal Effects Consignments
Personal effects are exempt from standard non-commodity information requirements due to commodity specific clearance processes.
AQIS Action in Relation to Personal Effects Consignments
Consignments must be identified as personal effects in the ICS and are subject to mandatory referral to AQIS for clearance purposes.
Air Freight Consignments
Air freight consignments are exempt from standard non-commodity information requirements as surveys have indicated that non-commodity concerns are minimal within this class of cargo.
AQIS Action in Relation to Air Freight Consignments
Non-commodity concerns relating to air freight consignments are addressed through ongoing surveillance of air freight facilities and are addressed on a case-by-case basis.
Break Bulk Consignments
Break bulk consignments are exempt from standard non-commodity information requirements.
AQIS Action in Relation to Break Bulk Consignments
Non-commodity concerns relating to break bulk consignments are addressed through ongoing surveillance of port facilities and are addressed on a case-by-case basis.
Bulk (in hold) Cargo
Bulk (in hold) consignments subject to quarantine intervention require a Ship Cleanliness Certificate and/or Ship Surveyor’s Inspection Report attesting to the cleanliness of the hold/s prior to loading.
AQIS Action in Relation to Bulk (in hold) Consignments
Where bulk (in hold) cargo requires a Ship Cleanliness Certificate and/or Ship Surveyor’s Inspection Report and one cannot be presented, the cargo may be refused discharge or may be subject to increased intervention including sampling, inspection, treatment or export.
11 Cargo Types - Rural Destination Concerns Only
Bulk Liquid Containers (ISO Tankers/Tank Containers)
While all ISO Tankers are considered by AQIS to be FCL consignments, they are exempt from packaging statements and cleanliness statements due to their restricted usage, design and construction. Only rural destination concerns are considered in relation to ISO Tankers.
ISO Tank containers must be identified as such on the Bill of Lading with a statement to that effect (this may also be represented by the international standard codes as per ISO 6346).
AQIS Action in Relation to Bulk Liquid Containers
Consignments not covered by an acceptable indication of the container being an ISO Tank (Tank Container) on the Bill of Lading, may be directed for inspection to confirm that the container is an ISO Tank.
Hard frozen containers
Refrigerated containers (reefers) containing cargo that is hard frozen may be granted exemption from packaging statements and cleanliness statements. For this exemption to be granted, the temperature must have been continuously maintained at -18°C (0°F) or below for a period of at least seven days.
The hard frozen statement should read as follows:
“The goods packed in the container(s) listed on this document, have been continuously maintained at -18°C (0°F) or below for a period of at least seven days”.
AQIS will accept this statement on:
- Bill of Lading/Waybill
- Packing List or Invoice
- Government to Government Certification
- Delivery order issued by the relevant shipping company
- Declaration from a Customs Broker accredited under AQIS Broker Accreditation Schemes.
In the absence of a hard frozen statement, an AQIS officer will use the “shipped on board date” on the bill of lading as commencement of the seven-day minimum period. Where the shipping period is less than seven days, additional documentation may be presented which indicates that the consignment was hard frozen prior to the voyage covered by the current bill of lading or post discharge, such as a temperature statement printout from the reefer.
AQIS Action in Relation to Hard Frozen Statements
Consignments not meeting hard frozen container requirements must meet all non-commodity requirements applicable to the relevant cargo type.
12 Non-Commodity Concern Statements (Containers)
The following outlines the requirements for each non-commodity statement which can be presented to AQIS as part of the import process.
Container Cleanliness Statement
Various cargo types require a statement to be made indicating whether the container has been cleaned prior to loading.
Container cleanliness statement should read as follows:
“The container(s) covered by this document has/have been cleaned and is/are free from material of animal and/or plant origin and soil”
AQIS will accept cleanliness statements on the following documents:
- Cleanliness declaration
- Packing declaration
- Packing List or Invoice
AQIS Action in Relation to Container Cleanliness Statements
FCL/X consignments not covered by an acceptable container cleanliness statement will be directed for inspection of both the container and the cargo transported within it.
13 Non-Commodity Concern Statements (Packaging Materials)
Prohibited Packaging Material Statement (such as straw, bamboo, peat, hay, chaff, used fruit and vegetable cartons etc)
Various cargo types require a statement indicating whether prohibited packaging material has been used in the packaging of the consignment as indicated at Section 9.
The prohibited packaging material statement should read as follows:
“Have prohibited packaging materials or bamboo products been used as packaging or dunnage in the consignment covered by this document ?” Yes/No
AQIS will accept prohibited packaging material statements on the following documents:
- Packing declaration
- Packing List or Invoice
AQIS Action in Relation to Prohibited Packaging Material Statement
No further action is required for packaging concerns where an acceptable prohibited packaging material statement is provided. In all other instances, consignments will be directed for inspection and/or treatment.
Timber Packaging/Dunnage Statement
Various cargo types require a statement indicating whether timber packaging or dunnage has been used in the packaging of the consignment as indicated at Section 9.
The timber packaging/dunnage statement should read as follows:
“Has timber packaging/dunnage been used in consignments covered by this document?” Yes/No
Note: Reconstituted wood products are not required to be declared as timber packaging or dunnage as they are not considered to pose a quarantine risk.
Where timber packaging/dunnage has been declared within a consignment, the following statements/documents are also required:
- ISPM 15 statement
- A treatment certificate/phytosanitary or government treatment certificate that covers AQIS acceptable treatments (treatment certificates are not accepted for ISPM 15 treatment)
and
- Bark statement.
AQIS will accept timber packaging/dunnage statements on the following documents:
- Packing declaration
- Packing List or Invoice
ISPM 15 Statement
Where timber packaging/dunnage has been declared, AQIS requires a statement indicating whether all the timber packaging/dunnage which has been used is ISPM 15 compliant. The ISPM 15 statement should read as follows:
“All timber packaging/dunnage used in the consignment has been treated and marked in compliance with ISPM 15 .”
Yes/No/Not Applicable
Note: Where an ISPM 15 statement is made indicating that all timber packaging/dunnage used in the consignment has been treated and marked in compliance with ISPM 15, the Timber Packaging/Dunnage Statement will not be required.
AQIS will accept ISPM 15 statements on the following documents:
- Phytosanitary Certificates
- Packing Declarations
- Packing List or Invoice
Bark Statement
Where timber packaging/dunnage has been declared, including ISPM 15, AQIS requires a statement indicating whether the timber packaging/dunnage is free from bark.

AQIS will accept bark statements on the following documents:
- Packing declaration
- Packing List or Invoice
AQIS Action in Relation to Timber Packaging/Dunnage, ISPM 15 and Bark Statements
No further action is required for timber packaging/dunnage concerns where:
- an acceptable timber packaging/dunnage statement is provided which indicates timber packaging has not been used in the consignment
- an acceptable timber packaging/dunnage statement is provided which indicates timber packaging used in the consignment is free from bark and ISPM 15 compliant
- an acceptable timber packaging/dunnage statement is provided which indicates timber packaging used in the consignment is free from bark and the statement is accompanied by additional documentation which indicates that the timber packaging/dunnage has been treated offshore by an AQIS approved method.
In all other instances, consignments will be directed for inspection and/or treatment.
AQIS-Approved Treatments and Certification for Timber Packaging and dunnage
Where timber packaging and/or dunnage has been declared and is not ISPM 15 compliant, AQIS-approved treatments and certification options can be determined through the Import Conditions Database (ICON) case for ‘Timber Packaging and Dunnage’.
14 Non-Commodity Concerns (Destination)
Unpack Destination - Non-Metropolitan Area
All containerised cargo destined for unpack in a non-metropolitan (i.e. rural or fringe rural) area is subject to a rural tailgate inspection prior to delivery unless it is to be unpacked at a premise holding a rural tailgate exemption. A list of postcodes designated as metropolitan, fringe rural and rural is at Attachment A.
AQIS will accept rural tailgate exemptions on the following documents:
- AQIS Rural Tailgate Exemption Letter
- AQIS endorsed copy of the rural tailgate exemption application.
AQIS Action in Relation to Fringe Rural Statements
Where a consignment is to be unpacked at a non-metropolitan premise which has not been granted a rural tailgate exemption, the container(s) is to be directed for rural tailgate inspection prior to delivery.
15 Reporting
Previously Accepted Statements
Where the application of this policy would prevent a previously acceptable statement from being accepted, AQIS Officers are to consult their supervisor prior to contacting the Entry Management Program for clarification.
16 Monitoring
New statements
When a new statement is created, it is to be reviewed against and incorporated into this policy by the Quarantine Operations Division – Canberra to ensure the requirements of the policy can continue to be met.
Periodic review
This Policy will be reviewed by the Quarantine Operations Division – Canberra on a two yearly basis to ensure it remains fit for purpose.
17 Other considerations
