Importing from Israel into Australia (2026)

Israel is notable for exporting high-value technology, medical devices, agricultural chemicals, and pharmaceuticals to Australia, reflecting its strong research and development sector. As no Free Trade Agreement exists, all goods are subject to standard MFN tariff rates which for many industrial and technology goods are already zero or low under Australias general tariff schedule.

No FTA — MFN rates apply

Compliance requirements for Israel-origin goods

  • No FTA exists between Australia and Israel so MFN (general) tariff rates apply to all goods; a commercial invoice and packing list confirming Israeli origin are required for entry documentation
  • Pharmaceutical and chemical products (Chapters 29, 30, 38) may require TGA registration or AICIS (formerly NICNAS) assessment prior to importation, and detailed safety data sheets must accompany shipments
  • Electrical and electronic goods (Chapter 85) must comply with ACMA regulatory arrangements including RCM marking under the Electrical Equipment Safety System (EESS) before being supplied in the Australian market
  • Biosecurity Act 2015 requirements apply to any organic material, food products, cosmetics or goods with plant or animal inputs; an Import Permit may be required and ABF biosecurity inspections are likely at the border
