What decides your marble & tiles landed cost
Australia’s general tariff is 5%, but the China–Australia Free Trade Agreement (ChAFTA) reduces most Chinese-origin goods — furniture included — to 0% (Free). The saving is real but conditional: you need a valid Certificate of Origin or Declaration of Origin proving the goods qualify, or you pay the full 5%. With ChAFTA duty at 0%, your only import tax is 10% GST on the VoTI (customs value + freight + insurance). Miss the Certificate of Origin and 5% duty is added back before GST is calculated.
Freight is the other half of the number
Marble & Tiles from China ships to Port Botany (Sydney) in 14–25 days by sea (3–8 days by air). For heavy categories like this, freight per CBM is often a bigger line than the duty itself — which is exactly why consolidation matters.
