Regulations and quarantine in international trade.

ABSTRACT

The international trade community (import and export) often considers the restrictions and non-tariff barriers imposed on them by plant quarantine regulations as impediments to trade. The prevention of huge economic losses to a country because of the introduction of noxious or dangerous pests is the responsibility of the plant quarantine service, and if it is to achieve its objectives of preventing the entry and spread of these economically injurious pests then restrictions are inevitable. The three major areas emphasized in this paper are harmonization of phytosanitary principles; plant quarantine procedures; and pest risk assessment. The first two areas deal with plant quarantine principles and procedures, while the third deals directly with quarantine pests and their interception. A proper understanding and management of the pests can assist in the facilitation of trade.
