When the declared amount is greater than AUD 1000 ( about USD 638), tariffs begin to be levied.
The total tariff in Australia consists of the following four parts:
a). Import DECN10 Air charge: AUD 40.20 (about USD 25.65) / per entry (fixed charge)
b). AQIS — Entry charge Air: AUD 15 (about USD 9.57) / per entry (fixed charge)
c). Import tariff = FOB price * tax rate
d). GST = (FOB price + freight + import tariff) * 10%
Total tariff = DECN10 + AQIS + import tariff + GST
FEDEX handling fee = total tariff * 2% (minimum charge AUD 6 (about USD3.83), maximum charge AUD 299 (about USD 190.8)).
For example: 1000 large car flags sent to Australia, the declared amount is USD 1200, the freight is USD 900,
Import tariff = USD 1200 * 5% = USD 60
GST = (USD 1200 + USD 900 + USD 60) *10% = USD 216
Total tariff = AUD 40.2 (about USD 25.65) + AUD 15 (about USD 9.57) + USD 60 + USD 216 = USD 319.3
If arranged by FedEx, there will be a handling fee = USD 316.78 *2% = USD 6.33, total cost: USD 316.78 + USD 6.33 = USD 323.11
If shipped by DHL, the handling fee for paying the tariff is RMB200 (about USD 31) / package.
Apart from that, if the declared value is less than AUD 1,000 (FOB price), the consignee will be free of duty and tax.
