Australia is a major destination for Chinese goods including electronics, machinery, furniture, apparel, consumer products, and industrial equipment. Australian importers, wholesalers, brands, and Amazon sellers commonly use major ports such as Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, and Fremantle, along with efficient inland distribution across the country.
GreenPlusExport's China-based team coordinates the full process: supplier communication, quality control, sea or air freight forwarding, documentation preparation, and support for delivery to Australian warehouses or distribution centers. We help reduce common uncertainties when shipping to Australia.
Shipping costs vary by method, volume, and routing. Sea freight (FCL) typically ranges $2,200–$5,500 for a 20ft container or $2,800–$6,800 for 40ft to Sydney or Melbourne. Air freight averages $5–$11 per kg for urgent or high-value goods. Additional costs include origin handling, quality inspections ($100–$300), inland transport in China, import duties, and GST. End-to-end timelines often span 6–14 weeks including sourcing and production.
