We apply and publish holding orders for imported food that:
- has failed inspection or there are reasonable grounds for believing the food would fail
- there are reasonable grounds for believing the food poses a serious risk to human health.
Holding orders are administrative instruments issued under the Imported Food Control Act 1992.
Holding orders ensure future consignments (same product, producer and country of origin) of a food are referred for inspection to verify compliance and safety.
Holding orders for failing food
We apply a holding order for imported food:
- that has failed inspection. See failing food reports.
- if there are reasonable grounds for believing the food would fail an inspection.
We ensure future consignments of this food are inspected under the Imported Food Inspection Scheme (IFIS).
Holding orders apply until the basis for the holding order no longer applies or when there have been 5 consecutive passes demonstrating a history of compliance.
This table shows the current holding orders we’ve applied each month.
