Have you thought about exporting produce from Australia to Malaysia? There are plenty of great reasons why becoming an exporter of Australian goods into Malaysia can be a lucrative business venture. Malaysia is a rapid-growing economy thanks to huge developments in construction and infrastructure in recent years. It can also act as a springboard into Asia, enabling Australian businesses to access other areas of the continent using a Malaysian base.

Malaysia Imports Of Goods: Free Trade Agreement

Great news: Exporting to Malaysia has been made a lot easier in recent years thanks to the MAFTA, (the Malaysia-Australia Free Trade Agreement). This came into force in early 2013, and has boosted trade between these two countries. If you’re importing goods into Malaysia from Australia, you’re in luck: the MAFTA means nearly all Australian goods benefit from tariff-free access. You can view the full document here.

If you are not sure whether produce you wish to import to Malaysia by sea or air comes under the Free Trade Agreement, you can use the Australian Government’s Free Trade Agreement Portal to find your item and see if tariffs apply.

Import To Malaysia By Sea

Ocean transportation is the best bet for conducting Malaysia imports of goods if you are not limited for time, if your consignment is heavy or bulky and if you are wanting to keep freight forwarding costs low. Shipping from Australia to Asia takes around 12-25 days, depending on a number of factors such as the type of shipping container you hire, and weather conditions.
