PHYTOSANITARY REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPORTATION OF HORTICULTURE PRODUCE FROM MALAYSIA 2021

PREFACE
The Phytosanitary Requirements for Exportation of Horticulture Produce from Malaysia 2021 booklet is
published by Plant Biosecurity Division (PBD), Department of Agriculture (DOA) Malaysia to provide information
on importing countries’ phytosanitary requirements which impose phytosanitary conditions that are required to
be followed by exporters in Malaysia. It is our hope that this booklet will serve as a reference to all exporters,
agricultural entrepreneurs and to extension officers of related Government Departments and Agencies which are
involved in certification activities as well as inspections of horticulture produce for export.

The information provided in this booklet is arranged according to 3 commodity categories which are fruits,
vegetables and cut flowers/foliage. All phytosanitary requirements for each commodity are listed according to
countries. A section on “Market Access Status on Horticulture Produce According to Countries” is also provided to
assist readers in searching for information according to countries.

Exporters are welcomed to communicate with PBD if there are interests to export other commodities which
are not listed in the booklet. If the commodities have been exported before to the particular country, PBD will
provide the phytosanitary requirements for exporters to adhere to, Phytosanitary Certificate (PC) will be issued
and exportation can commence. Otherwise, PBD will proceed to communicate with the National Plant Protection
Organization (NPPO) of the particular country to request for the phytosanitary requirements. Some countries may
require a Pest Risk Analysis (PRA) to be conducted, if the commodity has not yet been exported to the country.

INTRODUCTION
DOA Malaysia is recognized by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) and
International Plant Protection Convention (IPPC) as the NPPO of Malaysia.
As the sole authority in the country that is responsible to manage regulations on plant health (Phytosanitary Regulations),
DOA Malaysia has been tasked to conduct market access requests and negotiations for Malaysian horticulture produce
which have yet to gain market access in countries enforcing strict phytosanitary regulations, for example Australia,
China, Japan, New Zealand and USA.

Certain commodities obtain market access through technical bilateral negotiations whereby export protocols were
discussed and agreed by both parties. The export protocols underline importing countries’ phytosanitary requirements,
for instance, the use of approved quarantine treatment, farm and packing house registration requirements as well as
other requirements on food safety and traceability for the export of Malaysian horticulture produce.

In facilitating exporters to comply with the exportation protocol of importing countries, DOA Malaysia provides
    professional advisory services on the following activities:

• Advisory services on preparation of farms, collecting, packaging and processing facilities for registration under DOA
  Malaysia prior to inspection by the importing countries’ Plant Quarantine Authorities. Farms to be registered shall
  implement Good Agricultural Practice (GAP) and have obtained DOA Malaysia’s myGAP Certification. Collecting,
  packaging and processing facilities are required to obtain Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) or Hazard Analysis
  Critical Control Point (HACCP) certifications. For more information on GMP and HACCP, exporters are encouraged
  to contact State Health Department for their advisory services and certification procedures;

• Advisory services and trainings to exporters on quarantine treatment. The treatment can be carried out by the
  exporters or by using services provided by treatment providers. On quarantine treatments such as fumigation and
  heat treatment, only DOA’s Malaysian Fumigation Accreditation Scheme (MAFAS) and Malaysian Heat Treatment
  Accreditation Scheme (MAHTAS) accredited companies are allowed to provide services on the two treatments. In
  addition to that, exporters are allowed to carry out quarantine treatments at their own premises with conditions
  that they are registered and accredited under the DOA’s Malaysian Phytosanitary Certification Assurance Scheme
  (MPCA);

• Provides Vapor Heat Treatment (VHT) service for export of certain commodities at the Agricultural Treatment and
  Export Centers located at Serdang;

• Provides Phytosanitary Certification service by implementing inspection at exporters’ premises or at all certificate
   issuance office managed by DOA Malaysia. A PC is issued after a successful phytosanitary inspection for each
   consignment to be exported. Application for a PC can be made online at www.myphyto.gov.my or by visiting PC
   issuance office as listed in Appendix 1;

• Provides Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES) certification
  service by issuing CITES Export Permit for each consignment sourced from artificially-propagated plants to be
  exported (if applicable). Application for a CITES permit can be made at all PC issuance office.

APPLICATION PROCEDURE FOR
PHYTOSANITARY CERTIFICATE
PC is a patented plant health certificate based on the International Standards for Phytosanitary Measures
(ISPM) No. 12 (Guidelines for phytosanitary certificates) of the IPPC. It is gazetted in Malaysia through the
provision in Plant Quarantine Regulations 1981. A PC is used by all countries in the world to certify all plant,
plant products and regulated articles for export have complied with the phytosanitary requirements of importing
countries. A PC can be applied in Malaysia from the Plant Biosecurity Division, Department of Agriculture
Kuala Lumpur and also at all PC issuance offices in each state in Malaysia as shown in Appendix 1.

A PC can be applied at all PC issuance offices or through online at www.myphyto.gov.my. Upon application,
the consignment intended for export will need to be visually inspected by Plant Quarantine Inspectors of DOA
Malaysia. The inspection is carried out to ascertain that the consignment has been properly treated with the
correct quarantine treatment and they are free from the presence of any plant pest and disease as required by
the importing countries. The procedure of obtaining a PC is shown in Appendix 2.

As a reference, website links on import requirements for fruits, vegetables and flowers of selected countries
are listed as in Appendix 3.

Apart from that, an addition to Indonesia’s import requirement was revised in 2016. Further explanation on
Indonesia’s food safety system of fresh agriculture produce can be found in Appendix 4.

32   DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE MALAYSIA
PHYTOSANITARY REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPORTATION OF HORTICULTURE PRODUCE FROM MALAYSIA 2021

REGISTRATION PROCEDURE FOR
FARMS AND PREMISES
Certain countries such as China, Japan, South Korea and USA impose additional import conditions for the
exportation of horticulture produce from Malaysia. These countries require exporters to register their farms and
processing facilities with DOA Malaysia. As part of the requirement, the farms must implement GAP and are
accredited with DOA Malaysia’s myGAP. Application for myGAP can be made at all DOA Malaysia’s District
Agriculture Offices and State Agriculture Offices. Further information can be obtained from www.doa.gov.my.

All processing facilities associated with the preparation and processing of minimally processed, frozen or
chilled fruits for export must implement GMP and accredited by MOH Malaysia under the certification scheme
for GMP. Further information can be found at http://fsq.moh.gov.my. In addition, DOA Malaysia will also inspect
and provide advice on the setting up of a pest-free processing facility. Such facility must provide equipment
that would fulfill the pest-free criteria such as netted structure, air shower, UV light trap, negative air flow
system etc. It is highly advisable that exporters clarify the import requirements from their importers, who would
be able to liaise with the local authorities, most importantly the NPPO of importing countries, before any goods
are shipped, to avoid any detainment or refusal of consignments at entry points.

The application form for Farm Registration for Export is as shown in Appendix 5 and the application form for
Processing Facility/Packing House Registration for Export is as shown in Appendix 6.

The following steps are made compulsory by DOA Malaysia to consider the registration and approval of farms
and processing facilities for export:

i)   Applicant shall submit application form to register farm or/and processing facility to the Registration
     Secretariat. Registration form can be downloaded from www.doa.gov.my or by sending their request
     directly to the Plant Biosecurity Division, Department of Agriculture Kuala Lumpur;

ii) Inspection of farms/processing facilities by inspecting officers from DOA Malaysia after receiving sufficient
    information from the applicant;

iii) Applicant conducts corrective actions and upgrading works as recommended by the inspecting officers;

iv) Re-audit by the inspecting officers after receiving confirmation on the completion of corrective works by the
    applicant;

v) DOA Malaysia releases the approval for farms and processing facilities and issues NPPO registration
   number;

vi) DOA Malaysia will inform applicant on audit visit by the importing countries inspecting officers from time to
    time;

vii) Approval given by the importing countries to the farms and processing facilities;

viii) Unannounced audits to all farms and processing facilities by DOA Malaysia from time to time.

                                                                                    DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE MALAYSIA              33
