CUSTOMS IMPORT DUTY REFUNDS

When goods enter Australia, the lowest duty rate is 0% and the highest is 5%. On many occasions the goods enter Australia without the correct paperwork and need to pay the 5% import duty rate and in other instances goods enter Australia and have paid import duty when they should have been 0% in their own right.

The Customs Act 1901

The Australian Border Force [ABF] legislation, the Customs Act 1901 and its accompanying Regulations allow for import duty refunds to be made up to five [5] years after the goods have been imported. Platinum® can prepare your refund file and submit it to the ABF for an import duty refund.
