MPI diligently seeks out anything that could pose a threat to New Zealand’s Biosecurity. This includes insects like the fruit fly, which, if allowed unchecked entry into New Zealand, could cause significant devastation to crops and farmers’ livelihoods. Additionally, microscopic natural threats such as the PSA kiwifruit disease likely entered through the border. Items like seeds, soil, vegetation, or anything that is or was alive at any point could potentially pose a threat and are treated with utmost seriousness by MPI. We strongly advise ensuring that your trailer boat is thoroughly emptied and cleaned before shipping so it meets the highest cleanliness standards to avoid additional fees.
