Temporary import into Australia – Carnet

21 Sep 2015 By John Leave a Comment

If you are visiting Australia for a holiday or a raid, you may temporarily import your vehicle to Australia by presenting a valid carnet to the Department of Immigration and Border Protection at the port where the vehicle arrives in Australia.

A Carnet de Passage en Douane is an international agreement which allows the temporary importation of a vehicle for up to 12 months by visitors to Australia. The Carnet de Passage en Douane is obtained in your country of residence.

You can find out more here:

  • Quick overview on the website of the Australian Border Force website
  • Info about carnets on the Department of Infrastructure and Regional Development website
  • Importing a motor vehicle on the Australian Border Force website

Please comment below when any of these links becomes broken, thanks.
