Cargo Compliance Verification

Cargo Compliance Verification (CCV) inspections are conducted by the Australian Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry (DAFF) on containerised sea cargo imported into Australia. These inspections are part of the biosecurity system to ensure the integrity of Australia's agricultural industries and protect against exotic pests and diseases.
