Biosecurity Act 1993

Preliminary

7E: Border information supplied using JBMS must be supplied in approved form and manner

You could also call this:

"Give border information using JBMS in the right way, as approved by the Ministry."

When you use a JBMS to give border information to the Ministry, you must do it in an approved way. The Ministry will say what form and manner are approved, and this will be written down. You can find the approved form and manner on a website that is free to access.

If you are giving border information, you must supply it in the approved form and manner. This is so you can comply with the rules when using the JBMS. The approved form and manner may be set out in rules under section 325 of the Customs and Excise Act 2018.

The approved form and manner will be notified on a publicly available website. You can also find more information about JBMS in section 302(4) of the Customs and Excise Act 2018. The Director-General or the chief executive of the department responsible for the Act will approve the form and manner.
