Approved arrangement search tool

Our search tool is a guide to biosecurity industry participants and the activities they can carry out for imported goods under their approved arrangement.

Biosecurity industry participants that have agreed to have their details published on the department’s webpages appear in the search tool. If you want your details added, updated or removed from the tool, the nominated approved arrangement manager or site contact must contact aa.canberra@aff.gov.au

How to use the approved arrangement search tool

Search tool sorting defaults to alphanumeric order by arrangement ID. Use one or more search filters to refine the list information.

Some filters can become inactive based on other filters used or may not produce search results. For example:

  • When selecting approved arrangement class 1.1, the ‘ACT’ state tile disappears due to ACT having no publicly listed class 1.1 sites.
  • When selecting an approved arrangement class or biosecurity activity, there may be no publicly listed biosecurity industry participants for that class/activity.
  • When selecting an approved arrangement class and biosecurity industry participant name, search results do not show all classes held by that biosecurity industry participant.

Filter biosecurity industry participants by state

Use the top blue filter tiles and select all states or select certain states. Selected tiles will change colour from blue to black.

Filter biosecurity industry participants by arrangement details

Use the ‘arrangement details search’ to filter by:

  • approved arrangement class
  • the biosecurity industry participant’s arrangement ID number
  • the biosecurity industry participant’s name
  • suburb.

Within each filter list, select the relevant checkboxes. These search filters include free-text search functionality also.

Filter biosecurity industry participants by biosecurity activity

Use the ‘search by biosecurity activity’ to filter by:

  • Fumigation
  • Tailgate inspection
  • Rural tailgate inspection
  • Hot water treatment.

Select the checkbox to the right of the relevant activity title.

Reset filters

Click the ‘reset filters’ button in the top right of the tool to reset all filters. This reset function does not remove any free text entered. To remove the free text, use the backspace or delete key on your keyboard or device. You can also remove the free text by refreshing the web page.
