GST and DDP Price Policy

Ⅰ. Introduction

To provide clarity to Australian consumers regarding the pricing structure, applicable taxes, and shipping arrangements, this policy outlines the details of GST calculation, DDP (Delivered Duty Paid) model, and related matters. The aim is to enhance pricing transparency without affecting any statutory rights you may have under Australian law.

Ⅱ. Price Overview

The price displayed for products on the platform is generally confirmed on the checkout page. In applicable cases, the platform may use the DDP (Delivered Duty Paid) shipping method, which includes relevant taxes and fees at the time of the order.

The final payable amount will be based on the order total confirmed on your checkout page.

Ⅲ. Pricing Transparency

During checkout, the system will show the main cost breakdown for your order, which may include:

  • Product price

  • Applicable Australian Goods and Services Tax (GST), where relevant

  • Shipping fees (if applicable)

  • Import and customs-related charges (if included)

The exact charges and amounts will depend on the order details and delivery address.

Ⅳ. Australian GST Details

Orders shipped to Australia may be subject to the Australian Goods and Services Tax (GST), as per Australian law.

In applicable cases, the GST and other taxes may already be included in the product price or total checkout amount. If tax rates or rules change, the system will adjust accordingly.

Customers generally do not need to separately declare the taxes collected or included by the platform.

Ⅴ. DDP (Delivered Duty Paid) Service

When the DDP shipping method is used:

  • Import duties and related taxes are usually managed by the platform or its partners at the time of shipment or customs clearance.

  • Customers generally do not need to handle customs clearance themselves.

  • The goods will be delivered directly to the address you provided by the logistics carrier.

Third-party logistics companies like DHL, UPS, or FedEx may be used, depending on the specifics of the order.

Ⅵ. Shipping, Fees, and Delivery Times

  • Order Processing Time: Orders will generally be processed within reasonable business hours after payment confirmation.

  • Expected Delivery Time: Delivery within Australia typically takes several business days, with potential delays to remote areas.

  • Shipping Fees: Shipping fees, if applicable, will be displayed during checkout.

In cases where incorrect address details provided by the customer result in additional charges or returned items, the customer may be responsible for those costs.

Ⅶ. Customs Clearance and Accompanying Documents

For international shipments, the order may be accompanied by necessary customs and shipping documents, such as:

  • Commercial invoices (electronic or paper format)

  • Declaration documents related to import or shipping

  • Labels or instructions required for the destination market

These documents are intended to assist the logistics and customs clearance process, with the exact contents varying depending on the order.

Ⅷ. Invoices and Billing Information

After checkout or once the order is completed, customers can view:

  • The total amount paid

  • Breakdown of taxes and shipping costs (if applicable)

The platform may generate electronic invoices or transaction records, which can be used for after-sales inquiries, returns, or personal records.

Ⅸ. Applicability

This GST and DDP pricing policy applies to:

  • Orders shipped to mainland Australia

  • Orders shipped to some Australian islands or remote regions (depending on logistical feasibility)
