BIO

Biosecurity

Cargo, containers and packaging may be subject to biosecurity assessment, inspection, treatment or other controls depending on the goods.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Shipping from China to Australia FAQ

What is the best way to ship from China to Australia?

FCL is generally suitable for larger commercial shipments, LCL for smaller volumes, and air freight for urgent cargo. The best option depends on cargo size, weight, urgency, destination and customs/biosecurity requirements.

Which Australian ports are commonly used for China freight?

Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Fremantle are major container gateways. Adelaide and other destinations can also be served using suitable ocean and inland-routing arrangements.

Why is biosecurity important for Australia-bound cargo?
