Importing Machinery into Australia
Australia exercises strict quarantine measures designed to protect plant and animal health.
- AQIS has the power to re-export contaminated machinery from Australia at the expense of the importer
- Most used imported machinery requires a permit to import issued by AQIS
- It is a condition of the permit that used machinery arrives in a clean state, i.e free of quarantine risk material.
