You don't need an import licence to buy and import goods from overseas, but you may need to get permits to clear some goods from customs control. It's important that you understand and follow any customs laws and procedures required.
The Australian Border Force will provide you with the information you need when buying and importing overseas goods, including:
- import entry costs
- valuation advice
- rules of origin
- using an Australian Business Number (ABN)
- concessions
- labelling
- intellectual property rights
- tariff classification.
