Full Details

Initial classification only — pending editorial verification. Sporting ammunition is generally prohibited from postal / courier import into Australia under the customs authority's published parcel-prohibition list. Postal items found in transit are typically seized at the destination international mail centre and the addressee may be issued a notice of seizure; depending on quantity and product class, additional administrative or criminal liability may apply. Mailers should consult Australian Border Force (ABF) before dispatch.

PRACTICAL ADVICE

Do not mail Sporting ammunition to Australia. Australian Border Force (ABF) screens international parcels and seizes prohibited items. If you have already dispatched, contact the carrier to recall before customs clearance.
