Importing into Australia: what to plan for

General points our Australian buyers plan for. Your customs broker will confirm what applies to your machine.

Biosecurity cleanliness

Used machinery must arrive clean: free of soil, seeds and plant material. The Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry (DAFF) inspects on arrival, and machines that fail are directed for cleaning at the importer's cost. Tell us early and we'll prepare the machine with this in mind.

Duty and GST

Customs duty and GST are assessed when the machine is imported. Your broker can confirm the rate for your machine and whether a Japan-Australia trade agreement preference applies.

Customs broker

Most buyers use a licensed customs broker to lodge the import declaration and book the biosecurity inspection.

Common destination ports

We regularly quote CIF to these ports. Ask about any other port; we can usually book it.

Brisbane
Sydney (Port Kembla / Port Botany)
Melbourne
Fremantle

Frequently asked questions

Are the prices on the listings FOB or delivered?

Listing prices are FOB Japan: the machine loaded at the Japanese port. Tell us your port and we'll quote CIF, including sea freight and marine insurance. Import duty, taxes and local delivery are not included.

Yes. Ask in your enquiry and we'll send extra photos or a walk-around video of the machine before you commit.

No. It's general guidance based on what our buyers usually deal with. Import rules change, so always confirm the requirements for your machine with your customs broker or the relevant authority before you buy.
