Vee_Que;c-140373 wroteAfter the 1st July, any good over the value of $100? Imported will have gst included by customs supposedly. Meaning they look at the package value written in and will send you a bill like they do for items over $1000, so as long as your email is on there, you just get the bill.
Nope - GST is not levied at the border on any items under the value of $1000 and will not be in future. GST on items below $1000 will only be collected by sellers overseas who export more than $75,000 worth of goods into AUS per year, and they will have to register and collect the GST as part of the purchase transaction. So if you're buying from IPD something that's less than $1000, and assuming they don't need to be registered because they presumably sell less than $75,000 worth of stuff into AUS each year, it will still be free of GST and import duty. If they exceed the $75k then they'll have to register and collect GST.

Buying over the internet
Things you buy over the internet will have the same rules, duties and screening processes applied as any other import.
You need to know that:
For goods with a value of AUD1000 or less, there are no duties, taxes or charges to pay at the border.
From 1 July 2018, the Goods and Services Tax (GST) may apply to low value goods when imported from overseas by consumers in Australia. However, the GST will be charged at the point of sale and not at the border.
For goods with a value over AUD1000, you will need to fill out an Import Declaration, and pay duties, taxes and charges at the border.
You will need to pay duties and taxes on some goods (like tobacco or alcohol) regardless of their value
Certain types of goods are not allowed to be brought into Australia, or else need special permits.
