Full details

Australia limits personal imports of infant formula to 10kg per person and requires declaration. This limit exists partly to prevent bulk buying for grey-market resale to China (the daigou trade). Formula must be commercially packaged and within expiry date.

PRACTICAL ADVICE

Declare baby formula at customs on arrival in Australia and carry any documentation specified in the rule. Verify current requirements with Australian Border Force (ABF) before travel.
