Post Inspection Product Security (PIPS)

PIPS requirement

For break-bulk product, such as loose logs or timber that is loaded onto ships individually, an export inspection must be completed. In addition, a Post Inspection Product Security (PIPS) check may also be required. A PIPS check provides confidence that the consignment status is not compromised during the time between the initial inspection and the point of loading.

A PIPS check is a ‘mini’ inspection and is most commonly completed on the port, or at point of containerisation.

 

There are two ways to complete a PIPS check

1. Export services managed by IVS
   As an independent verification agency, IVS can carry out your PIPS check for you
   Or
2. Self managing through export approval
   Under the export certification standards, you can apply to MAF Biosecurity NZ to become an accredited to complete your own PIPS checks
