FAQS

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does air freight from USA to Australia take?
Direct air freight 2–4 days to Sydney (SYD), Melbourne (MEL), Brisbane (BNE). Express courier 48 hours door-to-door. Consolidated air 4–6 days. Charter flights: 2 days possible from LAX. ABF clearance adds 1–2 days for standard shipments requiring biosecurity inspection.
Air: USD $5.00–$9.00/kg on direct transpacific flights. Express: $10–$18/kg for urgent cargo. Charter pricing on request. GST 10% on customs value plus import duties (0–5% for most goods under AUSFTA). Biosecurity inspection fees separate.
ABF processes all imports. Need ABN (Australian Business Number), tariff classification, and import declaration. Permits from DAWE (biosecurity), TGA (medicines), ACMA (electronics), FSANZ (food). GST 10% collected at border. ExFreight handles full clearance.
Sydney Kingsford Smith (SYD) — 60%+ of US-Australia air trade. Melbourne (MEL), Brisbane (BNE), Perth (PER), Adelaide (ADL). ExFreight provides onward trucking to every Australian state including remote locations in WA, NT, and Tasmania.
Yes — Amazon.com.au FBA from USA. Warehouse pickup, air transit, ABF clearance, FBA delivery. FNSKU labeling required. Pallets: CHEP 1165×1165mm Australian standard. Need Australian ABN and GST registration (mandatory above AUD $75k turnover).
Yes — AUSFTA (Australia-US FTA since 2005) eliminates most tariffs on US-origin goods. Requires proof of origin (self-certification or supplier declaration). Most goods enter duty-free. GST 10% still applies. ExFreight prepares AUSFTA origin documentation at no extra cost.
Two options: (1) Direct LAX-SYD: 14-hour flight, total transit 24–36 hours. (2) Via Honolulu: 2–3 days with Pacific hub consolidation. Direct saves 24 hours on most US West Coast lanes and $200–400 per 100kg on time-sensitive cargo.
Minimal — Australia has few anti-dumping measures on US-origin goods. Occasional measures on steel, aluminum, and some chemicals. Rates: 10–30%. Check Anti-Dumping Commission registry. ExFreight flags known anti-dumping categories during quoting and origin documentation.
