Duty & quarantine

What Australia checks and charges

Australia is strict on wood and rattan. Treat everything in Bali and the border is routine.

01 / 04
  • GST 01 / 04

    Duty and GST, billed at cost

    Levied by the Australian government on you as importer — never marked up, never hidden.

  • BIO 02 / 04

    Biosecurity screens the cargo

    Wood, rattan, bamboo and used household goods are screened at the border.

  • RISK 03 / 04

    Untreated cargo costs you

    Officers can order treatment, re-export or destruction — at the importer’s expense.

  • FUM 04 / 04

    Treated in Bali before loading

    Fumigation is certificated pre-departure; certificates travel with your shipping documents.

LCL or FCL

Shared space or your own container

Most Bali LCL trucks to Tanjung Perak, Surabaya, then transships via Singapore — fine for solid teak, riskier for glass and ceramics.

  1. LCL — under 13 CBM

    Priced per CBM. A two-bedroom villa’s furniture usually rides LCL.

  2. FCL — above 13 CBM

    A 20ft holds about 30 CBM, sealed in Bali, and skips the transshipment entirely.

  3. Book outside Q4

    Q4 space costs most. If cargo can ship in September rather than November, it should.

Asked constantly

Bali to Australia questions

Will my teak furniture be fumigated before shipping to Australia?

Yes — fumigation and treatment certification happen in Bali before loading. Untreated cargo can be ordered into treatment or destruction at your cost. Certificates travel with the Bill of Lading, so officers see the record straight away.

Who pays Australian import duty and GST?

You do, as the importer. Every non-government cost — freight, packing, treatment, delivery — is fixed upfront in the quote, and duty and GST are billed at cost without markup.

Is LCL or a full container cheaper for villa contents?

The break-even sits near 13 CBM. Below it, LCL priced per CBM wins. Above it, a 20ft container of about 30 CBM is usually cheaper, sealed in Bali and spared the Surabaya–Singapore handling.

How long does delivery take after the ship reaches Australia?

Allow 3–10 business days for customs clearance, quarantine screening and booking the final leg. Rural addresses — say past Byron Bay — can add a few days over metro Sydney or Melbourne.
