Application Reason Description | NFD |
AQIS Commodity Code | 1. This field is used to break down goods within a tariff classification to enable commodities to be further highlighted for AQIS purposes. 2. The AQIS commodity code is linked to a Tariff Classification Number, Statistical Code combination. 3. Where no current AQIS Commodities exist for a Tariff Classification Number, Statistical Code combination, an AQIS Commodity Code is not allowed. 4. This field is optional, and if supplied must meet the following requirements: - The commodity code supplied must exist.
- The commodity must be supplied as either ‘Not Known’, ‘None Applicable’ or be equal to one of the AQIS Commodity Codes listed for the Tariff Classification Number, Statistical Code combination.
5. This element is not allowed when the Line Nature Type is 30. 6. The element is new functionality and will not be available for at least 12 months after ICS Imports functionality is in Production. 7. If the field is not required it may still be supplied. 8. Up to 10 Commodity Codes may be provided on each tariff line. Some Further Background The AQIS Commodity Code (ACC) is an AQIS initiative that allows for a more detailed description of the goods. Brokers have the option of selecting an ACC during the process of lodging an import declaration to identify the particular commodity of interest to AQIS within a broad Customs tariff classification. Along with the tariff classification, the ACC allows AQIS to have a more detailed description of the goods therefore assisting in timely and accurate processing. Using an AQIS Commodity Code will allow improved efficiency of import declaration lodgement by reducing the need for ICS Users to answer a series of lodgement questions to identify commodities of interest to AQIS (within tariff classifications containing goods of potential quarantine risk). There will not be any ACCs available when the ICS is implemented, but will be phased in for certain tariffs post ICS implementation. Full details regarding the AQIS Commodity Code initiative are outlined in AQIS Import Clearance Notices to Industry 2003/04 - No 5. A copy of the notice is available via the following link to the AQIS website. AQIS Import Clearance Notices to Industry 2003/04-No 5 http://www.affa.gov.au/content/output.cfm?ObjectID=5004A72A-0B7D-4441-988D67815F27F4C0 It is anticipated that some 3rd party software systems will internally map client product codes to Customs tariff/statistic codes (and ACCs) to assist in automating the goods classification processes associated with lodging an import declaration to the ICS. In recognition of the anticipated need for AQIS to periodically amend ACC descriptions or 4-character codes, it is recommended that those software providers intending to develop their systems in this manner include a facility that will enable automated updates to internal mapping between ACCs and client product codes. This should minimise the potential disruption to declaration processing in instances when revisions are made to ACC data. |
AQIS Concern Type | 1. This field replaces the JEMS Reason screen. 2. This field is only relevant for AQIS accredited clients 3. This field is linked to the packing issues questions on the Import Declaration. 4.

- Where an AQIS Concern Type has been supplied then either and AQIS Inspection Location Name or an AQIS Premises Identifier for each line must be supplied.
5. This element is not allowed when the Header Nature Type is N30. 6. Up to 10 AQIS Concern Types may be provided per declaration. |
AQIS Document Number | 1. This field, along with AQIS Document Type, allows the broker to nominate overseas government issued certification for food consignments. It is used to identify the particular document number. 2. This field must be supplied when the AQIS Document Type is supplied. 3. Up to 10 pairs of Document Type and Document Number may be provided on each tariff line. |

- a Concern Type has been supplied
- the client is not accredited under an AQIS Compliance Agreement
3. The mandatory rule for this field is relaxed if an AQIS Premises Identifier has been supplied for every tariff line. 4. This element is not allowed when the Header Nature Type is N30. |
AQIS Line Container Number | 1. This field is used to identify the container in which the goods for the AQIS consignment are carried. 2. This is existing JEMS functionality. 3. Where an AQIS Line Container Number is supplied for the Line, it must equal one of the Container Numbers supplied on the Declaration in the transport details. 4. This field is particularly significant for FCL and FCX entries as it can allow release of individual containers while other containers on the same declaration are still held for inspection and/or treatment. |
AQIS Number of Packages | 1. This field is used to identify the number of packages in the tariff line. 2. This information cannot be derived from the Transport line. 3. Where AQIS Number of Packages is supplied, AQIS Package Type must be provided. 4. This element is not allowed when the Line Nature Type is N30. 5. Up to 10 pairs of Package Type and Number of Packages may be provided on each tariff line. |
AQIS Package Type | 1. Where AQIS Package Type is supplied, AQIS Number of Packages must be provided. 2. This element is not allowed when the Line Nature Type is N30. 3. Up to 10 pairs of Package Type and Number of Packages may be provided on each tariff line. |
AQIS Packing Information Indicator | 1. This element is only used on Request for Cargo Release documents. 2. This field indicates to AQIS that there are packing concerns with this consignment. If there are packing concerns then the AQIS Concern Type, AQIS Processing Type and AQIS Premises Identifier fields must also be supplied. |
AQIS Permit Number | 1. This field is used to add authorising permit numbers relevant to the commodities imported. 2. This field is optional and allows the importer/broker to enter the number of an existing AQIS permit. 3. This element is not allowed when the Line Nature Type is N30. 4. Up to 10 Permit Numbers may be provided on each tariff line. |
AQIS Premises Identifier | 1. The AQIS Premises Identifier is the field that indicates the preferred Premises, under section 46A of the Quarantine Act 1908, to carry out an AQIS activity. The identifier is issued by AQIS. 2. In cases where the declaration is of interest to AQIS due to: - an AQIS CP Risk has been triggered
- a Concern Type has been supplied, or
- the client is not accredited under an AQIS Compliance Agreement
it becomes mandatory to supply either an AQIS Inspection Location at the header level, or an AQIS Premises Identifier for every tariff line. 3. This field is most commonly used in conjunction with the AQIS Processing Type to provide automated entry processing. 4. Up to 10 AQIS Premises Identifiers may be provided on each tariff line. These may be paired with corresponding AQIS Processing Types. |
AQIS Processing Type | 1. This field is a broker nominated type indicating the actions that AQIS should take with a consignment. 2.

The value supplied must exist in the reference data and the cargo type specified in the reference data must exist on this declaration. 4. This element is not allowed when the Line Nature Type is N30. 5. Up to 10 AQIS Processing Types may be provided on each tariff line. These may be paired with corresponding AQIS Premises Identifiers. |
AQIS Producer Code | 1. This field relates to food shipments under the AQIS Imported Food Inspection Program. 2. It may be required based on the CP Risk record associated with CP Profile match criteria. Producer codes are currently required for High Risk foods and foods covered by a Holding order. 3. If the CP Risk record indicates that the AQIS Inspection Category = "HR" or the Type = "AQIFHIGH", it should be noted that the Producer Code Required Indicator will be ‘Y’ and the producer Code must be provided. 4. However, if the CP Risk record indicates that the AQIS Inspection Category = "HO" or the Type = "AQIFHORDER", it should be noted that the Producer Code Required Indicator will be ‘Y’ but in most cases, the ICS will not mandate this field. This occurs because one of the profile criteria for Holding Order matches cannot be included in the EDI Reference Data. So, where the AQIS Inspection Category = "HO" or the Type = "AQIFHORDER", the AQIS Producer Code Required Indicator should be taken to mean AQIS Producer Code MAY be required (it is expected to actually be required at less than 1 case in 100). In cases where the AQIS Producer Code is indeed mandatory but has not been supplied, the declaration will be rejected from the ICS with a message to this effect. 5. When supplied, it must exist in the EDI reference data. 6. If an AQIS Producer Code is not required, it may still be supplied without causing a rejection of the message. 7. Up to 10 AQIS Producer Codes may be provided on each tariff line. |

UPE Importer Passport Country | Generally when someone returns to Australia after living overseas for a long period or migrates to Australia they bring with them Personal Effects like furniture, clothing etc. Unless these goods are hand carried they are classified as Unaccompanied Personal Effects. Based on the type of goods and how long the goods were owned and used overseas they are duty free and not taxable. UPE goods may be declared on an IMD by specifying the 'UPE'
Header Document Property , in which case: - The IMD must be a Nature 10 or N10/N20.
- One and only one tariff line on the IMD must be for the unaccompanied goods. Other lines may exist for other goods; the UPE line will be distinguished by its Tariff Classification.
- UPE Importer fields are mandatory.
- UPE Spouse fields are optional.
- Line Customs Value for the UPE line is set to zero regardless of the line price.
- The Line price for the UPE line will be ignored for all calculations and validations. Therefore the Invoice total must be equal to the sum of any other lines.
- A UPE cannot also be a SAC, therefore regardless of the value of any other goods duty and taxes will be payable.
- Due to the Customs Value being zero the Line Transport and insurance for the UPE line will be calculated as zero, however it can be overwritten for that line which will then lower the value calculated for the remaining lines.
- Even though the Line Transport and Insurance for the UPE line may have a value the Line Value of the Taxable Import (VOTI) will be set to zero.
- All Duties and Taxes for the UPE line will not be calculated and be zero. While the tariff created for the UPE line will have a free duty rate and be non-taxable rather than rely on that the ICS will not perform calculations for that line.
