Department of Plant Protection (DPP)
Overview
The PSW aims to facilitate the traders/customs agents with online applications for Import permits/Export Certificates (Phytosanitary certificates) by the DPP. Now the trader/customs can electronically perform document calling, inspection calling, and approval/rejection of Import Permit and Export Certificate requests. The Export Certificate request will be generated by the system at the time of submission of the Single Declaration (SD).
