Restrictions

Food items such as eggs, dairy and meat products must not be included for shipping as this is prohibited. Only food items, which are vacuum packed and fully sealed, should be included. Alcohol may be imported providing a full listing has been made. If the importer fulfils the above duty free exemptions for household goods, then he will also be exempt from duties on alcohol.

Untreated wooden items including bark and certain Christmas decorations
made of natural products will be ordered for treatment or destruction at the importer’s expense. The shipping of bamboo products, basketware,
caneware and rattanware is possible, although these may be required to
undergo cleaning, disinfection, or fumigation at destination incurring extra
costs. Feathers, furs, skins, tusks, etc, from endangered species are all
prohibited; otherwise certain items may require further inspection and
treatment. Generally speaking, items which have been treated during the
manufacturing process, such as feather duvets or leather sofas, will not
cause any problems.

Used rifles and shotguns may be imported but a permit must be obtained
from the firearms officer at the local police station. Pistols and revolvers are strictly prohibited.
