Wharf operator options
If you handle animal products that will be exported with an official assurance (export certificate), you must work under a:
- risk management programme (RMP), or
- regulated control scheme (RCS).
Operating under an RMP
If you decide to operate under an RMP, you need to register it with the Ministry for Primary Industries (MPI).

Operating under an RCS
The regulated control scheme (RCS) for wharves is an alternative to an RMP. You can only operate under this if you handle animal products for export that require an official assurance.
