Importing from Hungary into Australia (2026)

Compliance requirements for Hungary-origin goods

  • No FTA exists between Australia and Hungary, so MFN (general) tariff rates apply to all imports. A commercial invoice and packing list are required; a formal certificate of origin is not needed to claim FTA preferences but may be requested by the ABF for origin verification purposes.
  • ACMA type-approval and RCM (Regulatory Compliance Mark) labelling is mandatory for all electrical and electronic goods including machinery, consumer electronics, and telecommunications equipment before they can be sold in Australia.
  • Pharmaceutical and medicinal products (Chapter 30) exported from Hungary, a significant EU pharmaceutical manufacturing hub, must meet TGA (Therapeutic Goods Administration) registration and importation requirements, including valid import permits for scheduled substances.
  • Biosecurity declarations and potential DAFF inspection apply to any goods containing organic material, timber packaging, or animal-derived components. All wooden packaging must comply with ISPM 15 (heat treatment) standards, and a valid Biosecurity Import Conditions (BICON) assessment should be confirmed prior to shipment.
