australian customs

just wondering does anyone know what items are not allowed from other countries as i cant find any listings for this, eg glue, nail primer, acrylic powder.

I once emailed them and they replied very quick. From memory I think they said we only have to pay duties on tobacco and alcohol from other countries (if we buy something for personal use I think)... I will look for that email tomorrow. Most items where the seller says you have to check with the customs in your country seem to be fine.

Guilty!! Sorry, I just noticed someone asked what the poll was for and I was having the issue at the same time. Sorry for the confusion people. There is no cross-connection with another thread!!!!!

TGFT - really thought I had made it round the final twist!!!! hanging on by a thread here..........:^O

NO.

Any importation over combined item/postal value of $1,000 is subject to taxing at Customs, and duty is payable on certain items, not just tobacco and alcohol.... check the Austrlian Customs website.

but.... the OP is asking about items being ALLOWED into the country not whether or not they are taxable/ dutiable.
