Synopsis (short abstract) This standard provides technical guidance for national plant protection organizations (NPPOs) on the application of fumigation as a phytosanitary measure, encompassing treatments with chemicals that reach the commodity in a gaseous state. This standard also provides guidance for NPPOs on the authorization of treatment providers to conduct fumigation. This standard does not provide details on specific treatments with specific fumigants. Application of modified atmosphere when not in combination with fumigation is not part of this standard.

    This standard presents as annexes phytosanitary treatments evaluated and adopted by the Commission on Phytosanitary Measures (CPM). It also describes the requirements for submission and evaluation of the efficacy data and other relevant information on a phytosanitary treatment that can be used as a phytosanitary measure and that will be annexed to this standard after its adoption. The treatments are for the control of regulated pests on regulated articles, primarily those moving in international trade. The adopted treatments provide the minimum requirements necessary to control a regulated pest at a stated efficacy. The scope of this standard does not include issues related to pesticide registration or other domestic requirements for approval of treatments (e.g. irradiation).
