Key information about what you can ship, biosecurity rules, customs, and packaging for Australia.
Australia enforces some of the world’s strictest biosecurity laws. All food, plant, and animal products must be declared. Undeclared items may result in fines up to AUD 6,660 or criminal prosecution.
Australia is one of the most popular destinations for packages sent from Vietnam. With a large Vietnamese diaspora of over 300,000 people, there is a constant flow of care packages, gifts, food products, and commercial goods between the two countries. Whether you are sending Vietnamese coffee and dried seafood to family in Sydney, shipping ao dai for a cultural event in Melbourne, or fulfilling e-commerce orders for Australian customers — VIO Shipping provides fast, reliable, and affordable international shipping solutions tailored for the Vietnam-to-Australia corridor.
Australia is famous for having some of the most rigorous biosecurity regulations in the world, managed by the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry through the BICON (Biosecurity Import Conditions) system. These rules exist to protect Australia’s unique ecosystem from foreign pests and diseases. For shippers from Vietnam, this means every food, plant, and animal product must be declared on the customs form — no exceptions. Failure to declare can result in fines of up to AUD 6,660 or even criminal prosecution.
The good news is that commercially packaged food products are generally allowed into Australia. This includes popular Vietnamese items like packaged coffee beans, dried seafood (properly sealed), spices in retail packaging, and packaged snacks. However, unprocessed items such as fresh herbs, raw seeds, homemade dried meats, and loose-leaf plant material are almost always prohibited or require import permits. VIO Shipping’s customs team reviews every food shipment to ensure full compliance with BICON requirements before dispatch.
Australia offers a generous duty-free threshold of AUD 1,000. Goods valued under this amount generally enter the country without attracting customs duties. However, a 10% Goods and Services Tax (GST) may apply to goods purchased from overseas vendors who are registered for Australian GST. For shipments above AUD 1,000, customs duties are assessed based on the product category and tariff classification. VIO Shipping provides accurate customs declarations and documentation to help your packages clear Australian customs smoothly and avoid unnecessary delays.
Our customers most commonly ship Vietnamese coffee (ca phe sua da blends), dried seafood and fish sauce, spices like star anise and cinnamon, ao dai and traditional clothing, lacquerware and handicrafts, cosmetics and skincare products, electronics and phone accessories, and personal documents. Each category requires specific packaging and declaration approaches, and our experienced team ensures everything is handled correctly for Australian customs and biosecurity inspection.
