At the front line of the Biosecurity chain, keeping New Zealand free from unwanted pests and diseases, are trained Accredited Persons (APs). APs are responsible for checking and managing contamination risks associated with imported sea containers. All Ministry for Primary Industries (MPI - formerly MAF) approved transitional facilities for sea containers must have access to one or more APs. Having their own staff as APs helps businesses avoid delays or extra charges when clearing goods.
