SGT Service (Thailand) Co., Ltd. is a provider of inspection services for new cars and trucks certified by the Australian Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry (DAFF). This is to ensure that every motor vehicle is free from Biosecurity risks prior to export, in compliance with The Motor Vehicle Inspection Program (MVIP) required for the importation of vehicles into Australia.

 

Why are New Motor Vehicles Susceptible to Biosecurity Contamination?

MVIP inspection is a crucial step to prevent problems that may arise in the destination country, such as import refusal, detention, or unexpected costs.

Even though motor vehicles are produced and inspected according to the highest quality standards when leaving the production line, the new motor vehicles have a high risk of being contaminated with Biosecurity Risk Material (BRM) during the period they are held before being loaded onto large vessels. This risk is especially high in unsanitary areas like wharves or holding yards, where contaminants such as seeds, soil, or insects are commonly present.

For this reason, Pre-Shipment Inspection (PSI) following MVIP guidelines is the last line of defense for your exported motor vehicles.
