Standard NOM-144-SEMARNAT-2012 establishing internationally recognised phytosanitary measures for wood packaging used in international trade of goods, issued by the Mexican Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources (SEMARNAT), entered into force on October, 15.

The Standard is applicable in the country and aims to establish phytosanitary measures for wood packaging used in international trade of goods and products, their specifications and the use of internationally recognised mark to demonstrate the application of such phytosanitary measures. It also establishes guidelines for the visual verification by official staff at the points of entry of the wood packaging used for the introduction of goods and products into the country so as to reduce the risk of the introduction of pests.
