Australian GST and Duty on Parcels from the USA

Goods of AUD 1,000 or less are generally free of duty and GST at the border, but GST-registered overseas sellers collect 10% GST at checkout. Global Shopaholics is not registered for Australian GST, so we don't add GST to your shipment; our carrier partners help you with customs clearance, documents and any duties or taxes due. Above AUD 1,000, duty (if any), 10% GST and an import processing charge apply. Duties and taxes are not included in our shipping rates.

Extra charges apply to perfume. Lithium batteries, aerosols and liquids need special handling. Items banned by the carrier or by customs in Australia can't be shipped; see our FAQs for prohibited items or read how it works.

Shipping to Australia: Cost and Delivery Times

Delivery takes 3 to 15 days, depending on the carrier service you choose: DHL, FedEx, UPS or USPS, all with tracking. Standard processing takes 4–5 working days once you request shipment.

For cheap shipping to Australia from the USA, combine your orders into one box, the cheapest way to ship to Australia.

We deliver to Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, Gold Coast, Canberra and Hobart.

Free storage is 30 days on Basic, 180 on Premium (US$9.99/month) and 210 on Business (US$14.99/month), and paid plans earn 2% or 3% cashback. Get an instant quote in the shipping calculator for Australia or compare our subscription plans.

I like Global Shopaholics services. It’s my preferred alternative to MyUS. Package log-in, shipment packaging, customer services, etc., are all efficient and smooth. I’d recommend GS services to anyone seeking an affordable, hassle free package forwarding to Africa.

They were super helpful and patient with me… My box arrived in very good condition and the products were well packed, I didn’t even have to ask to add bubble wrap hahaha, top! I really loved the services, they just had to inform the days when the carriers go to collect the products from the warehouse before the customer makes the payment.

FAQs: Shipping to Australia

Do I pay GST on goods under AUD 1,000 from the USA?

Goods of AUD 1,000 or less are generally free of duty and GST at the border, but GST-registered overseas sellers must collect 10% GST at checkout. Global Shopaholics is not registered for Australian GST, so we don’t add it; our carrier partners help with customs clearance and any duties or taxes due. Above AUD 1,000, you pay GST, any duty and an import processing charge at the border.

How do I buy from the US and ship to Australia?

Sign up for a free Global Shopaholics account to get your US address in Delaware. Shop any US store and enter that address at checkout. We receive and photograph your parcels. You choose a carrier in your dashboard and pay, then we ship to your address in Australia.

How much does it cost to ship to Australia from the USA?

Shipping rates to Australia from the USA depend on the actual or dimensional weight of your consolidated box and the carrier you choose. To see how much to ship to Australia, enter your box’s weight and size in our shipping calculator to compare DHL, FedEx, UPS and USPS shipping to Australia side by side. Rates do not include customs duties or taxes in Australia.

What is the cheapest way to ship a package to Australia?

For the cheapest shipping to Australia, consolidate all your orders into one box, choose the slowest service that still meets your deadline and avoid bulky retail packaging that raises dimensional weight. The free Basic plan gives you 30 days of storage to collect orders before you ship. Compare every carrier for Australia in our shipping calculator.

Are US goods duty-free in Australia?

Most goods originating in the USA enter Australia duty-free under the Australia–US Free Trade Agreement (AUSFTA), although GST still applies. Alcohol and tobacco have separate excise rules.

How long does shipping from the USA to Australia take?

Delivery takes 3 to 15 days, depending on the carrier service you choose. Express services (DHL, FedEx, UPS) are the fastest. Customs clearance in Australia can add time.

How long can you store my packages?

Basic includes up to 30 days of free storage, Premium up to 180 days and Business up to 210 days. Large and heavy packages are limited to 30 days on all plans. After that, storage costs US$1 per lb per day for up to 15 extra days.

Can you combine several orders into one shipment?

Yes. Package consolidation is included on every plan. We merge your parcels into one box, which usually lowers your total cost because you send one package to Australia instead of several.

Do you offer shipping from the USA to Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Perth?

Yes. We deliver to every city in Australia, including these, with tracked DHL, FedEx, UPS or USPS shipping in 3 to 15 days.
