New Biosecurity Legislation in Effect from 16 June 2016

Important changes to Australia’s biosecurity system come into effect on 16 June 2016 with commencement of the Biosecurity Act 2015.

The Biosecurity Act 2015 replaces the Quarantine Act 1908. The Biosecurity Act introduces new requirements that will affect how the Department of Agriculture and Water Resources manages the biosecurity risks associated with goods, people and conveyances entering Australia. We aim to make compliance with the new laws easy for you and your business.
