ISPM15 Requirements

ISPM15 is the Australian Wood Packaging Certification Scheme.

The scheme was introduced nationally and internationally in 2006 and was designed to protect importing countries from the threat of pests and disease through timber packaging, pallets and Dunnage being treated by certified companies under the scheme.

All countries that have signed up to the scheme have set criteria in which they will accept timber packaging from around the world and how it must be treated. Each country also has set up implementation dates in which their county will only accept certified treated packaging after those dates.

While each country signed up to the scheme will accept treated and certified packaging, the packaging must also meet that countries own import conditions on top of the ISPM15’s requirements.

Once packaging has been treated and certified under the scheme it remains certified for the lift of the packaging as long as it does not have to be repaired or parts replaced.
