BMSM UPDATE 2020/2021 SEASON

Dear Valued Customer,

As we are now in the home stretch to the end of the 2020/21 BMSB season we wanted to confirm the

current end dates as set by the DAWE.

As per the DAWE website, treatment is mandatory for shipments sailing up until the 30th  April 2021

if they arrive before the end of May 2021.

•The measures apply to goods shipped from 1 September 2020 that arrive in Australian territory by

31 May 2021 (inclusive).

•Goods shipped between 1 September 2020 and 30 April 2021 need to be treated and will be

referred for intervention if they arrive by 31 May 2021 (inclusive)

•Goods with a shipped on board date of 1 May 2021 onwards arriving by 31 May 2021 may be

subject to inspection

•Any goods arriving from 1 June 2021 onwards will be deemed as out of scope and not subject to

the measures.
