The Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry has advised that an FID (Full Import Declaration) increase will commence on 16 January 2023.
This increase has been implemented to ensure it can fund existing and future regulatory activities, meet industry expectations, and continue to manage biosecurity risk effectively in the future.
For each declared consignment arriving by sea, the Import Declaration charge for sea cargo (Sea FID) will increase from $49.00 to $58.00, commencing 16th January 2023.
