Permits
Some goods require specific permits before they can legally enter or leave Australia. At DSN Logistics, we help you identify whether your shipment needs import permits (such as those issued by DAFF, TGA, or the Department of Environment) or export approvals. Our team can assist in the application process, ensuring your goods meet all regulatory conditions before departure or arrival.


Accurate documentation is critical for smooth customs clearance and compliance. We guide our clients through the preparation of key documents such as commercial invoices, packing lists, bills of lading, certificates of origin, and import declarations. Our team reviews each file for completeness and accuracy, helping to prevent costly delays or penalties at the border.

Permits & Documents
Paperwork Made Simple, Approvals Made Easy
Understanding the importance of permits and documents in freight forwarding is critical to ensuring smooth and compliant cargo movement. International trade is governed by strict regulations, and missing or incorrect paperwork can lead to costly delays, penalties, or even the refusal of entry for your goods.
From import and export permits to quarantine certificates, customs declarations, and biosecurity documentation, each document plays a vital role in keeping shipments compliant with Australian and international requirements. By managing permits and documents accurately and efficiently, freight forwarders safeguard supply chains, minimise risks, and keep cargo moving without disruption

We always encourage clients to check the Australian import conditions of their products via the BICON website or tariff classifications via the ABF website:
Submitting the incorrect set of documents or an invalid permit for your shipment may result in additional storage charges, re-exporting, or even destruction.
