FTA - Customs Broker Toolbox

Freight & Trade Alliance (FTA) is delighted to launch its newest service to our members being the FTA - Customs Broker Toolbox. AN INFORMATION SOLUTION -  FTA has received overwhelming member feedback on the lack of information publicly available to complete particular statutory and commercial functions with a high level of confidence. In response, FTA has developed the FTA - Customs Broker Toolbox as an important resource to fill the gap of information that is not adequately addressed by Australian Customs Notices (ACNs) provided by the Australian Border Force (ABF) and Import Industry Advisory Notices (IIANs) provided by the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry (DAFF).  SUPPORT FOR TRADE PROFESSIONALS - the FTA - Customs Broker Toolbox is a series of notices, written by customs brokers for customs brokers, aimed at providing practical information using source intelligence, including advice from government departments and publicly available data.  AEI – Generic Status BICON – Better Utilisation BMSB – Date on Board BMSB – NUFT Declarations BMSB Treatment Providers List and the 120-Hour Transshipment Rule Declaring Delivery Address & Rural Tailgate Requirements Illegal Logging – Due Diligence Requirements DAFF - Overtime Document Processing Requests Quarantine Direction Completion Timeframes DAFF - Where to Claim Compensation Abandoned Cargo Clearance Procedures – FCX & FCL Compliant Export Procedures Where to Check ICS Functionality ABF - Where to Claim Compensation ABF & DAFF - Cargo Holds and FCL Storage Concessions ABF – Circumstances for Duty Refunds on FTA Originating Goods ATO – GST Exemptions and GST-Free Foods PLEASE NOTE: All content is password protected - FTA / APSA MEMBER LOGIN REQUIRED Members intending to apply this information should seek professional advice to independently verify application in their particular circumstances.
