Background
Plant Export Operations Branch has recently reviewed and updated plant establishment registered operation codes. The review is part of an initiative to increase validation between departmental IT systems.
Registered establishment responsibilities
Plant export registered establishments will receive an updated certificate of registration from the department shortly after the update. No action is required from registered establishments at this stage, however the department strongly encourages establishments to review their updated certificate of registration to ensure the registered operation codes are correct.
