How to check the old furniture moved to Perth, Australia? Is it duty-free to clear old private furniture?

Friends who have emigrated should know that mailing old furniture abroad is basically tax-free for personal use. Britain has ToR- (Transfer Residence Exemption), and eligible luggage and articles can be cleared duty-free; Mail to the United States, Canada, Australia, Malaysia and other countries, as long as you have a passport, green card or long-term visa of the destination country, you can basically achieve duty-free customs clearance. Note when moving:

Do not check log entries. The furniture made by regular furniture factories is treated, and Australian customs does not need fumigation. If you need to check the furniture and rattan products, you can put them directly into a mobile wooden house made of fumigation-free board (a kind of wooden box used in the sea).

2. If you consign alcoholic goods, you must declare them in detail, and the customs will impose more taxes on the types, degrees and milliliters of alcohol (red wine, white wine, spirits, etc.). ).

3. The voltage in Australia is 230V, and most household appliances can be used in Australia (refrigerators, air conditioners, washing machines, lamps and lanterns are checked by many customers). It should be noted that high-power electrical appliances, such as air conditioners, will be required by the customs to declare the model, power, refrigerant type, electrical standard, etc. of the items separately for review, and they can only enter the country after completion. The review fee is about 100-300 Australian dollars.

4. The tariffs and consumption taxes of Australian Customs are relatively uniform for most items, and the calculation method is: tariff = item value *5%, consumption tax (GST)= (item value+tariff) * 10%, so the total of tariff and consumption tax is 15.5% of the declared value of the item.

Australian delivery, the delivery driver can only deliver the goods to the door, can not get started, can only be delivered to the place where the car can drive.

6. Mattresses bought in Australia are too soft and expensive. Customers who are used to hard mattresses can consider buying them in China.

7. Tableware, plastic products and bedding can be brought more, and the purchase cost abroad is higher.
