AgVetLink: Number 55, April 2006

Annual Fees

The first part of the annual fee process has been completed. The majority of product lists, which were sent to all registrants in March, were checked, signed and returned promptly. We are currently updating our system to reflect any necessary amendments, changes or cancellations indicated on the returned product lists.

In mid-May the annual fee invoices for the period 1 July 2006 to 30 June 2007 will be sent. Payment is due by 1 July 2006.

Late payment procedure

1. If payment is not received prior to 1 July 2006, you will receive a 10% penalty invoice under section 18 of the Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries (Restructuring) Act 1995.

2. In addition to the 10% penalty invoice, your product(s) will be prohibited from importation and/or manufacture under section 82 of the Agricultural Compounds and Veterinary Medicines Act 1997. The prohibition notice will be removed only after payment on all outstanding debts and any penalty fees has been received.
