Müssen DSLR Kameras in Australien deklariert werden?
Hi,
ich fliege demnächst nach Australien und wollte mich erkundigen, ob meine DSLR Kamera mit Objektiv (ca. 1500€) deklariert werden muss?
Auf der Seite der Border Control steht, dass elektronische Waren ab 900 AUD deklariert werden müssen. Da wäre ich mit meiner Kamera weit drüber, weshalb ich nicht weiß was ich jetzt machen soll.
Wäre super, wenn mir einer der vlt. selbst erst vor kurzem nach Australien mit seiner Kamera gereist ist, weiterhelfen könnte.

Hello
as a tourist, a used camera is not a problem or 2-3 cameras and 6 optics. When the cameras and optics look brand new we look the Custom Stutzig. There are super-penible hobby photographers treating camera technology like raw eggs that the inch likes to “take one another” that can already happen at the Swiss border or, above all, because the price falls to Europe is violent
In the case of local customs, make an appliance pass (embarity listing or identity proof) (or the form is filled by yourself) or a carnet ATA at the iHK. Spedition make this partly also and “Free”. Carnets cost fees and you will also have to deposit as a non iHK member deposit

This will stamp the customs upon arrival. Adding the list to the Australian customs takes 10-30 minutes depending on the amount of equipment but you must enter serial number, weight, manufacturer country and new price also for accessories, filters, camera bag
In principle, you scan all the calculation of camera technology in 75DPI/JPEG and store the memory card in the root directory so that you can view and/or print it on the camera display. If you have a smartphone and/or a cloud, it goes more elegantly.
Camera or production insurance also partially exposes carnets.

Profit photographers used to register the equipment in the rice pass or the inch has attached a leaflet with a fee mark, which was cost-effective. This is supposedly no longer possible
In my opinion, a Carnet A.T.A. is already something too much of the good, but fulfills the purpose exactly as a proof of comfort.
As a professional spediteuse, I advise end consumers to the simple way:
That’s how they can win you out at any time and you have all the documents.
Time? On each side for the paperwork maximum 30 minutes.
Go through the red channel at the airport and log on to your equipment.
Before your trip to Australia, you will also find a so-called “deficit” for your valuables in German customs, so that you do not have any difficulties in returning to Germany, to prove that this stuff has already heard you on your way out. Otherwise, it could have import duties and import turnover tax. You can receive proof at the departure airport at the customs office of export.
The proof may also save you some paperwork during Australian customs.
No, you don’t have to, a camera is not a merchandise you’re introducing but your personal possession. You don’t bring the camera to sell it.
You can easily get through the scanner without having to declare anything. Take them in a shoulder bag with a board.
The questioner, I think, has done a real research.
The Australian Border Force List of items you can and can’t bring to (abf.gov.au) clearly stipulates that photo equipment and other more valuable Geraffel must also be registered over 900 AUD (or 450 AUD for minors).
Even if it remains duty-free (see Duty free (abf.gov.au)), I wouldn’t risk getting rid of the green canal. After all, they don’t know if you don’t want to trade your equipment for hard dollars.
It is equally important, however, to have the identity of the German customs before departure. Just when the equipment looks (new)-worthy, there is a game race without this certificate. If you no longer have the invoices with serial numbers, it can become really expensive and from a certain limit (I mean €700) is also a criminal offence with corresponding consequences.
I don’t want to be afraid – but the 2x 30 minutes paperwork at the respective outlets or Import duties should be worth the security.
In the end, you will proceed before departure to the customs office of export and enter your tiger with serial number and documentable value (by invoice) or estimated by customs officers) into the identity certificate.
After that, on arrival in the target country (here Australia) wave once through the red channel and best with the detection and camera bag. They also capture all this again (and since they believe the German colleagues, the procedure is shortened).
If the equipment is still complete on departure (so that not parts of it are stolen/lost/destroyed) you can simply go through on return without further registrations. If parts are lost, it becomes more complicated and comes to personal risk readiness. In case of loss or theft, there are certain indications… in case of destruction, I hope you know when, where and how that happened.
When entering Germany, the green channel is the right one with all the documents that you have already received from the German side on export and from the Australian side on import at least for your own camera sound. But only if no other registered goods are in baggage.
Well, I’m just out of my mind, and I’ve never declared anything. And if cameras don’t look like they just bought, no one’s interested in it, more likely it’ll be if you have any liquids in your luggage. Don’t think everyone’s picking up with a camera and interrogating what he paid for the camera and whether the import documents are available. But I don’t know how it’s in Australia – there’s no interest here in the USA. It would be too much for me to shoot, but if you want to get on number, it probably makes sense. If you’re flying too two, I’ve just read, you’re entitled to the combined allowance, $1800.
