Why it matters

Grains, spices and many plant goods need it. Wooden pallets and crates must meet the international ISPM-15 standard (heat-treated or fumigated, with the mark) in most countries.

What goes on it

  • Agency's accreditation number
  • Goods, container number, quantity
  • Fumigant, dose, exposure time, temperature, date

Avoid these mistakes

  • Use only an accredited agency — the list is on the PPQS site.
  • Some countries do not accept certain fumigants. Check the buyer country's rule before booking.
