FAQ
How much would this toys order cost landed in Australia?
With an item price of $120.00, $20.00 shipping, and the selected carrier-fee preset, this simplified example estimates a landed cost of $154.00.
Does Australia charge duty on this example?
No customs duty is estimated for this example, but GST or carrier fees can still apply depending on the destination rules.
Does origin from China change the calculation?
Most consumer goods ship from China without preferential tariff treatment, so the standard category duty rate is used. Exact duty still depends on the commodity code. This worked example uses the standard category rate and does not model preferential-origin paperwork.
Can I use this page for a different order value?
Yes. Edit the calculator fields on this page to adapt the example to your own item price, shipping, insurance, and carrier-fee estimate. Use BorderTally Pro when you need to run many SKUs or destinations at once.
