- Private importers need an import approval first (RVSA s 22); type-approval holders and their written authorisees do not

Rules and sources
- Importing requires a basis under s 22 of the Road Vehicle Standards Act 2018: holding a type approval in force for that vehicle type, written authorisation from the type-approval holder, an import approval naming the vehicle, or a circumstance set out in the rules — otherwise the import is an offence; private importers need an import approval first, type-approval holders and their written authorisees do not ↗ official 2026-10-26
- Under the China–Australia FTA (ChAFTA) Chinese-origin passenger cars (8703) are duty-free with a certificate of origin; otherwise the general rate is 5%. GST 10% on customs value + duty + international freight and insurance ↗ official 2026-09-20
- Luxury Car Tax 33%: (GST-inclusive value above the threshold) × 10/11 × 33%. FY2026-27 thresholds: fuel-efficient cars (≤3.5 L/100 km combined — BEVs and most PHEVs) A$91,661, all others A$80,809 ↗ official 2026-09-20
- Zero tolerance for asbestos: any vehicle containing asbestos is prohibited, and overseas ‘asbestos-free’ certificates are not accepted at face value; on arrival the Department of Agriculture inspects the car, which must be clean inside and out (no soil or seeds) ↗ official 2026-09-20
Right-hand-drive market: Chinese domestic left-hand-drive cars cannot be registered. The importer needs a basis under RVSA s 22 (type-approval holder or its written authorisation, or an import approval naming the car); a new car must either already hold an Australian type approval or go through the single-vehicle register pathway, so not every model can enter. Chinese-origin cars are duty-free with a certificate of origin (otherwise 5%), GST 10%, plus 33% Luxury Car Tax on the GST-inclusive value above the threshold (higher threshold for EVs and low-consumption cars).
