Key regulations

What an Indian brand has to comply with to list in Australia.

Import duties

How customs treat India-origin goods entering Australia.

Frequently asked questions

The questions Indian founders ask us most often about Australia.

  • How to sell on Amazon Australia from India?

    Register for an ABN if you cross AUD 75,000 turnover (Amazon AU collects GST on imports under the low-value goods scheme), get a Certificate of Origin to claim AI-ECTA preferential duty rates, set up Amazon AU Seller Central, and prepare for strict biosecurity on food, wood, and plant products. AUD 3.50–10+ FBA fee per unit.

  • What is the GST rate in Australia for Amazon sellers?

    Australia GST is 10% on all imports, regardless of value, under the low-value imported goods scheme. Amazon AU acts as a marketplace facilitator and collects + remits GST for you. DTC sellers above AUD 75,000 turnover need their own GST registration via the ATO.
