Sea freight from Vietnam to Australia
Overview – Ocean cargo from Vietnam to Australia
The island-continent is one of the most important regions in the world. Not because of its demographic importance (23 M) or its industrial power, but because of its abundant natural resources. Thanks to its mining, agricultural and offshore resources, Australia has become the world’s 12th largest economy. The insular nature of the country makes maritime transport the almost unique vector of trade with the cumulative need of the industrialized countries of North-East and South-East Asia (Vietnam) and now the emerging countries in the neighbourhood. This anchoring in the dynamics of the Pacific zone makes this distant West quite specific. The port fabric must therefore respond to the challenge of the country’s role as a mega supplier, while the maritime sector is historically underdeveloped.
Australia has only five major cities and containerisation reflects these polarities in the island’s economy and demographics. In the south-west, the Perth region (2 M inhabitants) is very isolated, but rich in agricultural, mining and industrial activities. Fremantle’s fore harbour at the mouth of the Swan River owns the region’s container terminal with a traffic in 2012 of 0.7 M TEU.
Container handling relies on only five ports, but in most cases there is competition from stevedores. In 2006, by acquiring P&O Ports (UK), Dubai Ports World (UAE) acquired terminals in the country’s five container ports. In 2012, DPW sold its shares in one of them, in Adelaide, to its local partner Flinders Ports (UK).
Shipping company offering services from Vietnam to Australia ports
Here are few examples :
Port of Sydney
Port Jackson, also known as Sydney Harbour, is the natural harbour of Sydney, Australia. Crossed by the Harbour Bridge, it is known for its beauty and is also, in particular, the emblem of the city and of Australia as a whole, with the Sydney Opera House located on its shores. In 2020, the port could handle around 2,500 containers. Thanks to a new railway installation (Cooks River) it will soon be able to handle 15 thousand containers. After optimal storage and cleaning, they will be shipped.
Port of Brisbane
Located on Fisherman Island, it is the third busiest port in Australia. Indeed, it could handle up to 1,000 containers in 2014 and is only getting bigger (almost 1,500 in 2020). It is the port that is experiencing the strongest increase in capacity in the whole of Australia.
Port of Melbourne
From July 2003 to September 2020, the Port of Melbourne is managed by the Port of Melbourne Corporation, a public enterprise created by the State of Victoria. In September 2016, the Port of Melbourne Coroporation is privatised with the creation of a 50-year concession for about AUD 9.7 billion, or 6.7 billion euros. 6.7 billion. The concession is held by a consortium consisting of the Chinese sovereign wealth fund, the China Investment Corporation, the Australian sovereign wealth fund, the Australian Government Future Fund and a Canadian fund, OMERS, as well as four other smaller funds: the Queensland State Fund and the private funds Global Infrastructure Partners, Calpers and NTS. You should know that the port was able to handle 2600 containers in 2020.
Should I ship by consolidation or full container from Vietnam to Australia ?
LCL: Less than Container Load
(or consolidation) is the fact to group several shippers into the same container. If you don’t have enough volume to fill an FCL (Full Container Load), you should consider this option.
FCL: Full Container Load
FCL is an ISO international standard referring to a (full) container load (20″ or 40″) containing a shipment for a consignee (an importer). FCL sea transport is the cheapest mode of transport when importing from China.
However, in order to be a viable freight option, the importer must purchase a relatively large quantity of goods.
Advantages of shipping by LCL
LCL will provide a very affordable means of transportation for cargo that is too heavy for air freight, but of insufficient volume or weight to make an FCL shipment an unviable option.
More convenient for cargo inspections and to reduce the cost of packaging materials in case repackaging is required.
Disadvantages of shipping by LCL
Higher price per cubic metre compared to FCL shipments
Often not a viable shipping option for cargo volumes above 15 cbm (cubic metres) due to higher loading, unloading, handling and freight costs per cubic metre compared to FCL shipping from China.
Advantages of FCL sea freight
Price less than one cubic metre in relation to an equivalent volume or weight of goods shipped by LCL air or sea freight.
More convenient for optimizing quantity and packaging for export to maximize the use of space within a container from 20″ or 40″.
Higher level of security and less risk of damage due to less handling (Loading, Temporary Storage, Unloading) of your cargo.
Disadvantages of FCL shipping
Not profitable unless your cargo volume is 13,14,15 to 20 cubic meters (equal to 40 to 70% of a 20″ container).
How long does it take to ship from Vietnam to Australia by sea freight ?
| Sydney | Adelaide | Jakarta | Surabaya | Fremantle | Melbourne | |
| Da Nang | 15 days | 14 days | 15 days | 15 days | 16 days | 16 days |
| Saigon | 15 days | 14 days | 15 days | 15 days | 16 days | 16 days |

| Cam Pha Port | 14 days | 14 days | 14 days | 14 days | 15 days | 15 days |
Please be aware that the transit time takes into consideration only the freight (it will be longer with the pick up and the delivery of course).
How much does it cost to ship a container from Vietnam to Australia ?
Note that anyway, sea freight is the most used transfer method by Australian importers. Indeed, for large and regular shipment, this is the most cost-effective option.
Therefore, the most part of cargo are transferred through ocean freight from Vietnam to Australia. Your shipment exceeds 1CBM / 100kgs? The air freight will be too expensive. As you can guess, because of the sea, there is no rail freight possible.
So, the sea freight is by far the most cost-effective solution between the two countries (and in general).
Special sea freight services
Reefer container from Vietnam to Australia
The reefer container is a “thermally insulated” container with a temperature maintaining device. It allows the transport of goods under controlled temperature. So as one can guess, it is often used for food or chemical products.
Docshipper will advise you, if necessary, and then reserve it for you.
Roro/Bulk/OOG/Refrigerated container from Vietnam to Australia
RORO:
A Ro-Ro is a ship used to transport, among other things, vehicles, loaded through one or more ramps. They are also known as Ro-Ro, from the English roll-on/roll-off meaning literally “roll-in, roll-out”, to distinguish them from the usual cargo ships where products are loaded vertically by cranes.
BULK:
Bulk goods are products transported directly into the ship’s hold or into the facilities provided for that purpose. A distinction is made in this case between bulk and general cargo. A distinction is made between bulk goods and general cargo: solid bulk goods: ( such as coal, ferrous and non-ferrous ores) bulk liquids: (oil and oil products). Bulk goods are transported by bulk carriers, ships specialised for each type of cargo: ore carriers, coal carriers, etc.)
OOG
OOG (Out of Gauge) cargoes are a special category of goods. Because of, for example, dimensions or weight, some goods cannot be loaded in traditional containers. These types of cargoes are usually loaded onto a platform or trailer for transportation.
Refrigerated container
We promise to transport goods at a specific temperature; when items are transported in a refrigerator, the temperature is monitored to keep perishable and/or chemically derived goods fresh during the trip.
This kind of container, which comes in different sizes, allows us to control the temperature and atmosphere.
Air freight from Vietnam to Australia
Overview – Classic vs Express air freight
You should know that the necessary time to transfer goods is the main point of these two types of air freight. Indeed, for an express transfer it will be at about 4 days against 1 week for regular air freight. Customs clearance being an automated process in express companies, it reduces the time. Anyway, the classic air freight will take less time than sea freight.
What is the difference between volumetric and gross weight?
*To consider the density of your shipment, two methods are used to sort out the chargeable weight of your goods.
Consider the two calculations above. A distinction is made between gross weight and volumetric weight. The most important of the two results will be used to evaluate your freight. The two images below give you a better understanding of the two methods:
Should I choose a Classic Air freight from Vietnam to Australia ?
Which airlines company should you ship with ?
- Australian Airlines is an Australian airline serving Cairns and East Asia. It is wholly owned by the Qantas Group.
- Vietnam Airlines (in Vietnamese Hãng hàng không Quốc gia Việt Nam) is the national airline of Vietnam. It operates domestic and international flights from its two main hubs at Tan International Airport Sơn Nhất in Ho Chi Minh City and Nội Bài International Airport in Hanoi.

Express service – Perfect solution for small package
If your shipment is about 100kgs or less this is an interesting solution. For important volume, this service would be too expensive. Therefore, we will advise and book for you what is necessary.
How long does it take for a package to be shipped from Australia to Vietnam?
Again, thanks to the fast customs clearance process (automated), you should count no more than 4 days for the all process. Thanks to our good relationship with these companies, we ensure you a good service and price.
How much does an Express service cost from Vietnam to Asutralia
*To quote your express shipment, a different method than gross and volumetric weight is applied. For express freight, you must consider that 1 CBM = 200 kgs.
Please, advise more information about the operation and then we will revert to you with a quotation. We are working with these companies for so long. Therefore, the price we can get from them are very low. If you ask them directly, you will have some bad surprises.

Customs clearance in Australia for goods imported from Vietnam
How much will I pay ?
Knowing the precise cost of freight and customs clearance is a serious deal. Hence, as each member of the World Trade Organisation the HS code is used (composed of 6 numbers). the Harmonized Commodity Description and Coding System. This numbers defines the nature of your good (by ID).
Here is the composition of an HS Code
How to find the right HS Code for my goods ?
There is several option you have to find the HS Code. The easiest one (and the most reliable one) is to ask directly to your supplier. He should be able to provide you such details unless he is just a broker or a very small supplier and not familiar with international logistics process.
Otherwise, you can use this website : HTS – HS code finder
It’s very simple to use ! You just need to enter your keyword in the search bar and see what results you get. Let’s continue this example with ” pineapple ” :
Calculate applicable tariff with the HS code
You found your HS Code ? It’s now time to check how many taxes you will have to pay on your shipment. You just need to do the following steps :
Go on the Free Trade Agreement Portal
Go on this link (Free Trade Agreement Portal Australia), you should reach a page who looks like this :
As our example on the screenshot, fill 3 requested informations :
- Your HS Code
- If you import or export products
- Origin of goods
Select the correct product
Check the duties and taxes applied on your product
In our example, Australian customs do not charges duties and taxes on pineapple coming from Vietnam :
Different taxes existing for your goods
Although there is no general import licence required, Australian Customs will have to clear your goods for import. You will need to know:
- what import permits, quarantine permits, and treatments apply to your class and type of goods being imported
- and whether they are subject to mandatory security or information standards.
Any goods valued in excess of AUD 1,000 must enter the country via an “Import Declaration”. These declarations can be made via the internet, via the Integrated Cargo System (ICS), or via a customs document, form B650. Import declarations may incur a fee depending on whether they are completed online or on paper (Schedule of Recovery). The importer must pay GST (10%, it equals to VAT) when the goods are released.
It is recommended that novice importers use the services of a customs commission agent who, in addition to completing the Import Declaration, can handle several tasks related to the import process on behalf of the importer. He will have better rates for customs procedures but will charge you for his services. Note that DocShipper will be able to clear your goods at customs.
The excise tax in Australia
Some supplies are not taxable. These include “input tax” supplies (financial supplies, residential rental accommodation and sales of residential accommodation that are not “new”) and supplies that are exempt from goods and services tax (e.g., sales of active businesses and certain exports of property and services). Imports are subject to customs duties (maximum rate of 5%). Excise duties apply to products such as beer, spirits, liqueurs, tobacco, cigarettes and petroleum products. Excise duties are generally high and are indexed twice a year according to the consumer price index. In addition, a “wine equalization tax” applies wholesale to wine made from grapes, fruit and certain vegetables, mead and sake, at a rate of 29% (in addition to the GST, which is calculated on the price including WET).
The Australian Government also levies a luxury car tax at the rate of 33% of the value of the car that exceeds the luxury car tax threshold (for the 2018/19 financial year: AUD 75,526 for fuel-efficient vehicles and AUD 66,331 for other vehicles). vehicles) and is payable on the GST-exclusive value above the threshold.
How to get a taxes exemption?
It’s possible for you to benefit from partial or total exemption in GSP countries (including Vietnam). For the rest, it will depend on the nature of what you import and the country of importation.
GSP
The Generalized System of Preferences (GSP) is a program of trade preferences for goods from developing countries, established by several developed countries, in derogation of the Most Favoured Nation system, within the framework of the World Trade Organization. Without negotiation or reciprocity, it does not apply to the customs duties of poor countries, but only to their exports; It is a system of aid for developing countries to support them in their trade. Then, you can guess that a lot of Vietnamese products are included.
Products judged too competitive (textile for example) can’t beneficiate from GSP.
Providing a Certificate of Origin of your goods to the USCBP will make you able to benefit of GSP.
Does Docshipper charge duty ?
For the rest, our customs commissioner will definitely not be charged to you. We will revert to you with documents produced by Australian Customs in order to prove it to you.
Customs clearance process in Australia
Customs process
Australia is one of the countries with a complicated customs clearance system. Thus, it can be easy to get into complicated situations with airlines or even authorities. By contacting Docshipper, you will have at your disposal a forwarder with experience. Do not hesitate to contact us, especially when the value of your transaction exceeds 1000 AUD.
Furthermore, before the goods are cleared through customs, you will need to provide (after payment) the various necessary permits.
The value of the goods as well as the type of agreement (B2B / B2C) may create a variation.
For most transactions (B2C – under AUD 1000), Australia Post will deliver the parcel directly to the consumer. Excluding tobacco and alcohol, you can import duty free. As mentioned previously, a permit may be required restriction there is.
The process varies for goods shipped by air/sea freight. They must be declared for customs clearance: Self-Assessment Clearance (SAC) electronically via the Integrated Cargo System ICS (often the freight forwarder takes care of this but sometimes it is the supplier). If the amount of goods exceeds AUD 1,000, that’s another story. An import declaration to be filed on the ICS is also required. Expect duties and taxes vary in amount, depending on numerous things.
Any importer must be able to understand Australian Customs legislation, permits, prohibited goods, product labelling and duty information and therefore available duties and taxes, as well as access to the ICS system.

What are the Licenses required (import & export)?
Import license
In order to import in Australia, you do not need import licence. But you may need some permits (depending on the nature of goods and his value) to avoid trouble with customs. Besides, an importer needs to ensure that the goods are well labelled and that it can not be a problem.
Licensing authorities also publish updates on current concerns. However, this does not always reflect current customs legislation.
Necessary documents
The Bill of Lading is equivalent to a passport and a boarding card for your shipment. Depending on the method used to transfer your goods, it can be an Airway Bill (for Air Freight) or a Bill of Lading (for Ocean Freight). It is also a document testifying of the legality of the transfer, because it is emitted once the carrier received payment for its services. This document is important for all international transfer of commercial goods.
The following pictures are detailing what information are provided on a Bill of Lading:
- 1 = Shipper
- 2 = Consignee
- 3 = Notify party
- 4 = Vessel No.
- 5 = Port of loading / discharge
- 6 = Place of receipt / delivery
- 7 = Container No.
- 8 = Goods description
- 9 = Net weight
- 10 = Dimensions / volume
The original invoice
The Australian customs will see this like a confirmation that the goods received are the same in the declaration.
The packing list
The packing list is summing up all the items included in your shipment. You should attach the MSDS data sheet and the international code, if you’re importing hazardous or chemical products in Australia.
Certificate of Origin
This document is very important if you’re wishing that your import can be treated under the GSP regime. Indeed, it is the only legal proof that your goods were made in Vietnam. Like the Bill of Lading, the Certificate of Origin is a very important document for all international import. The document must be signed by the manufacturer and delivered by a government agency of Vietnam.
Here is what it looks like (for China here):
There might be some difficulties for you to handle it entirely. If this is a case, just send us an email or call us !
Prohibited & restricted items
One can see two different kind of prohibition: The one for which you need permission (you need to meet some requirements).
The absolute prohibition: Circumstance do not matter; this is not possible.
Here is a list of the main prohibited items:
- Anabolic substances (steroids) / Drug and narcotics
- ANZAC
- Biological agents
- Australian native animals and plant species / Cat and Dog fur products (endangered)
- Weapons
- Tobacco*: You will pay a lot of import duties and tax when importing Tobacco, you must comply with Australian Law. In the most cases you need an ABF permit.
*As of 1 July 2019, the importation of most tobacco products into Australia is prohibited. Continued importation of tobacco products requires a permit from the Australian Department of Home Affairs.
The following products require an import permit as of 1 July: Cigarettes, Water pipe tobacco (chicha, hookah), Pipe tobacco, Rolling tobacco
The new requirement does not apply to the following products: Cigars, Chewing tobacco and snuff, Tobacco imported by passengers or crew members as part of the authorized personal allowance.
Trade agreement
The entry into force of the Comprehensive and Progressive Trans-Pacific Partnership Agreement (CPTPP) and the ASEAN-Australia-New Zealand Free Trade Agreement (AANZFTA), which provides for the reduction of 90% of Australia’s tariff lines imposed on imported goods and the elimination of 100% of its tariff lines, will contribute to the promotion of Vietnam-Australia trade, said Vo Tân Thành, Vice President of the Vietnam Chamber of Commerce and Industry (VCCI) and Director of its Ho Chi Minh City branch.
Trade relationship
Vo Tân Thành welcomed the vigorous development of Vietnam-Australia cooperation over the last 45 years, particularly in trade, investment and tourism. According to him, in 2017, bilateral trade reached 6.5 billion dollars, including 3.3 billion dollars of Vietnamese exports, an increase of nearly 7% year-on-year. Currently, Australia is Vietnam’s 8th largest trading partner and the last one is Australia’s 15th largest trading partner. By the end of last year, Australia had invested $1.8 billion in nearly 400 projects in Vietnam, ranking 19th out of 126 countries and territories with investments in Vietnam. “In the future, Australia could be among the top ten foreign investors in Vietnam,” the VCCI deputy director said.
According to Lê Thanh Tùng, director of Tiên Thinh International, although Vietnam is the 15th largest exporter to Australia, the value of its export’s accounts for only 1.7% of Australian import turnover. “In order to increase their market share, Vietnamese companies need to learn about Australia’s investment attraction policies,” he advised.

Wooden boxes
Once again, this method aims to facilitate transport by protecting your belongings. The wooden crate is intended for rather bulky objects. There are wooden crates and wooden boxes.
