We apply and publish holding orders for imported food that:
Holding orders are legal 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
- if there are reasonable grounds to believe that it would fail an inspection.
We ensure future consignments of this food are inspected under the Imported Food Inspection Scheme (IFIS).
Holding orders apply until a history of compliance to the IFIS is demonstrated. This is usually after five consecutive passes or two years from the holding order implementation date.
This table shows the current holding orders we’ve applied each month.

Holding orders for food that poses a serious risk to human health
We can apply holding orders to an imported food on the basis there are reasonable grounds for believing the food may pose a serious risk to human health. This holding order is active for 28 days and can be extended until we receive assurances from the exporting country that future imports are safe.
There are currently no active holding orders for food that poses a serious risk to human health.
