Australia currently permits the importation of mangosteen fruit from Thailand and Indonesia for human consumption, provided Australian biosecurity import conditions are met. 

This draft report determines that the importation of commercially produced mangosteen fruit to Australia from all commercial production areas of Malaysia can be permitted, subject to a range of biosecurity requirements. 

This draft report contains details of plant pests that are of biosecurity concern to Australia and are potentially associated with the importation of mangosteen fruit from Malaysia. The term ‘pests’ includes both arthropod pests and pathogens. This report also contains risk assessments for the identified quarantine pests and, where required, proposed risk management measures to reduce the biosecurity risk to an acceptable level, that is, to achieve the appropriate level of protection (ALOP) for Australia.
