Importing from Pakistan into Australia (2026)

Pakistan is a notable supplier to Australia of cotton textiles, apparel, woven fabrics, rugs and carpets, leather footwear, rice, and surgical instruments, with the trade relationship governed entirely by MFN general rates given the absence of a bilateral Free Trade Agreement. Pakistani-made sporting goods, particularly cricket equipment and apparel, also represent a recognised niche import category into the Australian market.

No FTA — MFN rates apply

Compliance requirements for Pakistan-origin goods

⚠No FTA exists between Australia and Pakistan, so MFN (general) tariff rates apply to all goods. A non-preferential certificate of origin or commercial documentation confirming Pakistani origin is recommended for tariff classification and trade statistical purposes.
⚠Textiles, apparel and made-up textile articles from Pakistan must comply with Australian Consumer Law mandatory fibre content and care labelling requirements under the Trade Measurement Act. Mislabelled or uncertified goods risk detention or rejection by Border Force.
⚠Biosecurity risk is elevated for goods such as raw cotton, seeds, spices, dried plant material and natural stone. An import permit may be required and goods are subject to DAFF biosecurity inspection on arrival, with potential treatment or re-export costs if non-compliant.
⚠Leather footwear, surgical instruments and sporting goods (notably cricket equipment) must meet applicable Australian product safety standards. Importers should retain supplier compliance documentation and be aware that the ACCC conducts market surveillance that can trigger mandatory recalls or penalty notices.
