Frequently asked questions

Why is biosecurity important when importing into Australia?
Australia enforces some of the world’s strictest biosecurity controls: many imports (timber, food, packaging, used machinery) are screened by the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry and may require treatment or inspection. Experienced Australian forwarders on CargoLinked manage biosecurity and quarantine compliance to avoid delays.
Which Australian ports and airports do forwarders use?
Melbourne is the largest container port, followed by Sydney (Port Botany), Brisbane, Fremantle (Perth), and Adelaide. Air cargo moves primarily through Sydney (SYD) and Melbourne (MEL).
Do I need a licensed customs broker in Australia?
Commercial imports are declared to the Australian Border Force, and most importers use a licensed customs broker to lodge the declaration, calculate duty and GST, and manage biosecurity requirements. Many forwarders on CargoLinked provide customs brokerage in-house.
