Official Dispatch No. 651/BVTV-KD dated April 13, 2015, regarding plant quarantine for wooden packaging materials

To: Exporters and importers
Plant Protection Department has received inquiries about plant quarantine of wooden packages and buffers. Plant Protection Department hereby offers some opinions on this issue:

According to Point d Clause 1 Article 1 of Circular No. 30/2014/TT-BNNPTNT dated September 05, 2014, wooden pallets are plant quarantine targets. Accordingly, they must undergo plant quarantine process upon exportation or importation.
Pallets made of natural woods that have been treated and marked according to International Standards for Phytosanitary Measures No. 15 (ISPM 15) on management of wooden packaging materials must undergo physical inspection when they are imported. However, presentation of Phytosanitary Certificate or Fumigation Certificate may be omitted.
Wooden packages and packaging materials of a thickness less than 6 mm, plywood, or those that have been treated with glue, heat, pressure, or a combination of the said methods, thus the risk of pest on wood has been eliminated, and there are documentary evidence therefor, plant quarantine upon export or import shall be exempt.
