Biosecurity Training

At IVS, we are committed to seeing New Zealand businesses succeed through the right biosecurity educational training, endorsed by our position as New Zealand’s leading transitional facility training provider.

 

New Zealand importers must operate a MAF-approved transitional facility to receive, inspect and unpack imported sea containers under the Transitional Facility General (TF-GEN) Standard. All MAF-approved transitional facilities must have trained and certified personnel who manage or undertake the different aspects of biosecurity.

Training requirements for an approved transitional facility

1. Approved Transitional Facility Operator
   Maintains overall responsibility for the biosecurity aspects of a facility, and requires retraining every four years.
    
2. MAF Accredited Person
   Inspects and approves imported sea containers for biosecurity clearance, and requires retraining every two years.

Personnel must be trained by a MAF Biosecurity NZ approved training provider.
