DescriptionUnveiled a new regulation where Animal Quarantine and Certification Services officials are required to occasionally inspect the sealed samples of goods arriving at customs for physical identification purposes. This aims to facilitate and promote an early clearance of imported livestock products, especially those under the ‘no testing category’, as the policy will eliminate the need to collect samples.
