Australian customs for DDP
What must be in place before the shipment moves.
DDP to Australia combines duty/GST with biosecurity — the DAFF check is where shipments actually get held, so it is screened at origin, not at the wharf.
| Requirement | Who handles it | When |
|---|---|---|
| Importer ABN | Importer — mandatory | Before first import |
| ISPM 15 timber packaging | Shipper — checked at origin | At packing |
| Container cleanliness | Shipper — checked at loading | At loading |
| Import declaration | Broker — Prodoer coordinates | At import |
| Duty per Australian tariff | Importer | At entry |
| GST 10% | Importer | At entry |

FAQ
DDP shipping to Australia FAQ
What DDP covers, biosecurity, DDP vs DAP, ISPM 15, and delivery scope.
What does DDP shipping to Australia include?
Freight, import declaration, duty, 10% GST, DAFF biosecurity screening, and delivery — one number, itemised. Biosecurity is screened at origin, not left to the wharf.
Why does DDP to Australia need biosecurity screening?
DAFF inspects timber packaging, container cleanliness, and seasonal pest risk. A fumigation or treatment direction at the wharf is expensive and slow. We screen at origin so it does not become a DDP surprise.
DDP or DAP for Australia?
DDP if you want a fixed landed cost with biosecurity handled. DAP if you have a broker and prefer to file your own entry. Under DAP, duty and GST remain yours.
What is ISPM 15 and does DDP cover it?
ISPM 15 is the international standard for treating timber packaging. Australia enforces it strictly. Under DDP we verify compliant timber (or switch the packing method) at origin — it is part of the landed cost, not a separate charge.
Can you deliver DDP to an Australian DC or 3PL?
Yes. The delivery address is priced into the landed cost.
