The charge therefore responds to parcel size and weight more than to distance. Prices for Brisbane follow the Qatar to Australia corridor rates. The exact figures are in the price table at the top of this page.
Do I pay customs duty sending from Qatar to Australia?
That depends on the customs relationship between Qatar and Australia. A parcel for Brisbane follows the rules of these two countries. Parcels moving inside one customs territory, such as between two EU member states, need no declaration. They attract no import duty and no import VAT.
Where the route crosses a customs border, a declaration accompanies every parcel. Booking from Qatar generates the required form from the contents and value you enter. The recipient in Brisbane pays any import duty and local VAT on arrival. Customs calculates both on the declared value. Declare honestly. Understated values are the most common cause of parcels held at the border.
Gifts below the local de-minimis threshold are often exempt from duty. Australia sets that threshold, not the carrier. Restrictions on excise goods such as alcohol and tobacco apply on every route. They apply even inside the EU.
Keep the commercial invoice or receipt available until the parcel arrives in Brisbane. Customs in Australia may ask for proof of value.
What cannot be sent from Qatar to Brisbane?
Some items are refused on every route including Qatar to Brisbane. Others are refused only on shipments into Australia. The universal list covers cash and negotiable instruments, live animals, perishable food, loose batteries, aerosols, flammable liquids, weapons and their parts, narcotics, and human remains. We refuse these at collection. They are not insurable.
Some destinations restrict more than the universal list. Typical additions into Australia include alcohol and tobacco above personal allowances, prescription medicines without documentation, plant material and seeds, and cosmetics in commercial quantities. Branded goods can need proof of origin. Check the rules for Australia before booking when your item could fall in one of these categories.
Lithium batteries inside a device are accepted. Loose or spare batteries are not. Check before booking if you are unsure whether an item is accepted for delivery in Brisbane. Parcels stopped in transit return at the sender's cost. The insurance does not apply to them.
