Importing from Romania into Australia (2026)

Romania is a notable source of industrial machinery, automotive components, electrical equipment, and footwear exported to Australia, reflecting its strong Central European manufacturing base. As an EU member state, Romanian goods meet EU production standards but importers must ensure compliance with Australian-specific regulatory requirements as MFN general rates apply to all imports.

No FTA — MFN rates apply

Compliance requirements for Romania-origin goods

  • No FTA exists between Australia and Romania, so MFN (general) tariff rates apply to all goods; a commercial invoice and packing list are required but no preferential certificate of origin is needed for MFN assessment
  • Anti-dumping and countervailing measures administered by the Anti-Dumping Commission may apply to certain steel and aluminium products originating from Romania or transshipped via EU member states; importers should check the public register before lodging entries
  • Electrical and electronic goods, including machinery and appliances under Chapters 84 and 85, must comply with Australian electrical safety standards and may require ACMA registration or RCM marking before being supplied to the Australian market
  • Timber products, wooden furniture, and any goods containing plant-based materials are subject to biosecurity inspection by the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry and may require a Timber Import Declaration; footwear and apparel with natural material components may also be subject to biosecurity screening on arrival
