Australian customs declaration form B534
A B534 form, also known as an "Unaccompanied Personal Effects Statement", is a mandatory customs declaration document that allows eligible visitors to ship belongings to Australia without paying customs duty or Goods and Services Tax (GST).
Unaccompanied Personal Effects (UPEs) include household items, such as clothing, sports equipment and furniture, that you import into Australia, typically via an international removals company, and arrive separately from you.
The B534 form also helps streamline the Australian customs clearance process by minimising delays. It's part of the broader customs process managed by the Australian Border Force (ABF), which protects Australia's borders while ensuring the efficient import of personal effects.
Accurately completed B534 forms ensure your personal belongings meet Australian customs requirements. They must include accurate details about the shipment's contents, value and ownership. You can submit them either online or on paper.
