Goods affected by Brown Marmorated Stink Bugs
On 16 February, we sent an Important Notice relating to vehicles carried on the four vessels infested with the Brown Marmorated Stink Bug - Tokyo Car voyage 1802, Courageous Ace voyage 121A, Sepang Express voyage 44 and Glovis Caravel.
Some of these ships have been deemed to have 'arrived' in New Zealand and import declarations have been entered and passed with either Deferred Accounts or Cash Accounts being debited or raised.
Following consultation with some industry members, we have provided advice on how these vehicles can be re-entered into New Zealand.
