Importing

Customs requirements
All goods imported into Australia must be cleared by the Australian Customs Service (Customs).

Prohibited & restricted goods
Some goods are prohibited or have restrictions so you need to check with the Australian Customs Service before you import them.

Quarantine requirements
Before you import goods, you need to find out if your goods fall under quarantine regulations.

Assistance for importers
Before you consider importing a product from overseas, check the Industry Capability Network (ICN) to find a competitive local supplier in Australia or New Zealand.

Labelling requirements
Labels are used by businesses to convey information about products, to promote features of products that may be attractive to the consumer, or to describe contents that the consumer can't see.
