The Aircraft Disinsection Information (ADI) system is used to record aircraft disinsection treatments. Treatments must be recorded for all flights arriving in Australia and New Zealand.
The Import Relationship and Access Manager (iRAM) is the secure gateway to ADI. All users must register through iRAM to manage their role and access permissions.
Who needs to use ADI
Aircraft operators and third-party treatment providers must use the ADI system if both apply:
- hold an approved arrangement (AA) with us or a Compliance Agreement (CA) with MPI (New Zealand)
- are using either residual or pre-embarkation disinsection for flights arriving in Australia.
ADI users require a secure sign-up process via iRAM. We provide the final approval as the ADI administrator.
Airline Administrator
An Airline Administrator is established for each airline.
They will:
- endorse and manage their users
- add and update aircraft records
Airline User
Airline Users:
- create and update disinsection records
- cannot manage user access
Airline Users must be endorsed by an Airline Administrator.
Quick tips for using iRAM and ADI
- Use Google Chrome for best performance.
- For mobile access, use landscape mode for full functionality.
- If a treatment port is missing from the dropdown list, contact us at conveyance.aircraft@aff.gov.au
Why it’s important
The ADI helps aircraft operators meet biosecurity requirements and prevent the entry of pests and disease vectors.
iRAM and ADI support compliance with:
- Australia’s Biosecurity Act 2015 (approved arrangements with DAFF)
- New Zealand’s Compliance Agreements (with MPI)
