Hosted by the Department of Transport and Regional Services, this network is a portal for freight councils, government and non-government, around Australia.
Your state government may also have a ‘trade’ or ‘import’ section as part of their online business services guide.
What is Tradex?
Tradex is a government-run import scheme that gives importers an upfront exemption from customs duties and GST if the product they import is intended for later export. The aim of the scheme is to encourage Australian business exports while recognising that businesses may need to import some elements of their product from overseas.
There are a few prerequisites to attain Tradex eligibility, namely that the imported goods must be exported or used in manufacturing other goods to be exported and that exportation must take place within a year of importation or within a period pre-approved by AusIndustry. A company that breaches these conditions by discarding or selling the imported goods without exporting them will be liable to pay the relevant duties and GST.
