Australia presents another significant trade opportunity for various Thai products. Despite its vast land area, much of the country is desert, limiting agricultural activity and resulting in shortages of certain goods for consumption. This creates a golden opportunity for Thai businesses and online retailers to export to Australia. Entering a market on a completely different continent means companies interested in expanding into Australia will require a large volume of shipments from Thailand.

Furthermore, Australia has policies to support foreign investment, especially small businesses or investments under A$10 million, which can invest without requiring permits. However, some types of businesses have special conditions and must apply for government permission beforehand, including businesses impacting national security, finance, communications, aviation, transportation, newspapers, and businesses that the government requires to submit a proposal beforehand.
Please inquire about shipping costs.
For Thai investors, Australia allows Thais to invest in all types of businesses except newspapers, broadcasting, air transport, and airports. However, investments exceeding A$10 million require prior permission. The favorable investment and trade conditions in Australia, particularly for Thai businesses, have led to increased demand for companies providing export services from Thailand to Australia.

SME SHIPPING offers door-to-door document and parcel pickup and delivery services worldwide.
To inquire about delivery charges, the following information are needed;
  1. Destination country 2.City name 3.Postal code (if any)
  2. Weight (kg) and dimensions of the parcel (cm) 5.List of products to be delivered
SME SHIPPING uses parcel weight compared to box volume. If the parcel weight is greater than the box volume, the parcel weight is used to calculate the price. However, if the box volume is greater than the parcel weight, the price is calculated based on the box volume instead.

Terms of Service:

  1. The service fee is calculated by comparing the weight and volume of the package using the formula: Volume = Width x Length x Height (centimeters), then dividing by 5,000 to find the volumetric weight (kilograms).
  2. Items that cannot be delivered include: perishable food, hazardous or flammable materials, perfumes and sprays, counterfeit or fake goods of all kinds, obscene materials, living organisms, carcasses, animal parts, human cremation ashes, gold bars, cash, precious stones (unpolished), firearms, ammunition, explosives, and illegal goods.
  3. Additional charges apply for delivery to remote areas or outside the service zone (please inquire with staff before delivery).
  4. Items weighing over 70 kg per box will incur additional charges (please inquire with staff before shipping).
  5. We provide transportation services for liquids except those containing alcohol and carbonated beverages, as well as all types of flammable materials. In the case of certain potentially hazardous liquids, additional MSDS documents may be required.
  6. Product insurance is calculated at 2.5 percent of the actual product price or a minimum of 500 baht, with coverage capped at 20,000 baht.
  7. If import duties are levied at the destination, the recipient must pay them. The duty rate varies depending on the country.

Product warranty terms and conditions:

  1. In the event that goods are damaged during the delivery process, the recipient must notify the company within 7 days of receiving the goods. The recipient must collect all relevant information and details regarding the damage, such as photos of the received box, photos of the goods inside the box, shipping details, date and time of delivery, and complete recipient information.
  2. Cargo insurance coverage begins from the moment the goods are under the care of the shipping company until they are delivered to the final recipient. It covers both loss and damage that may occur during transportation, calculated based on the weight and value of the goods. In cases of partial damage, the coverage will be calculated based on the actual weight of the damaged goods.
  3. In cases where goods are denied or seized by customs, this can occur due to illegal goods, the presence of dangerous goods, prohibited items, or goods regulated by the International Air Transport Association (IATA) that may not have been declared in the cargo manifest. In such cases, coordination between the originating and destination countries may result in delays.
  4. In the event of complete loss of an entire package, the recipient must file a claim within 7 days of the date the company accepts the shipment. If the recipient fails to do so within this timeframe, we will not be liable for any claims. Claims are limited to one claim per shipment. The recipient must provide complete details of the damage, including photographs, for review and verification before any refund is issued for the loss.
  5. The insurance claim process takes approximately 10 business days for verification and another 14 business days for the refund process. Delays may occur due to time constraints between the originating and destination countries.

Taxes and import duties for...To Australia

Overview of shipping to Australia.

When shipping goods to Australia, the recipient is required to pay duties and taxes, regardless of whether the goods are for personal or commercial use.
The FOB (Free On Board) assessment method means that duties and taxes are calculated based solely on the full value of the imported goods. In addition to duties for shipments to Australia, other taxes and fees such as Goods and Services Tax (GST) and Customs Service Fees are also levied.

Customs duties and taxes for shipping goods to Australia.

Australia charges variable customs duties ranging from 0% to 10%, with an average rate of 4.6%. Some items can be shipped to Australia duty-free, such as laptop computers and other electronic products.
 

Sales tax for shipments to Australia.

In Australia, GST (consumption tax) is virtually exempt for almost all shipments. The main exempted items are specific food products and qualifying medical devices.

GST collects 10% of the Taxable Importation (VoTI) value, which includes the total amount of the Customs Value (CV), duties, freight and insurance, as well as the Wine Equalisation Tax (if applicable).
