International Courier to Australia from Ahmedabad
Australia has a large and growing Gujarati community in Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane and Perth. The catch: Australia's biosecurity rules are the toughest on the planet. At SAMP International we ship to Australia weekly and have a specific checklist of what will and won't clear AQIS — we brief you thoroughly before you hand over the parcel.
Major cities we deliver to: Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, Canberra, Gold Coast, Hobart

Food parcel rules for Australia
Australia's biosecurity is the STRICTEST in the world. Even dry vegetarian items are scrutinised. NO seeds, NO nuts in shell, NO fresh plant material, NO dairy products. Factory-packed shelf-stable vegetarian snacks (theplas, khakhra, farsan) are allowed only with ingredient labels and best-before dates. We give you a written biosecurity checklist before shipping.
Medicine rules for Australia
TGA allows 3-month personal supply of prescription medicines with prescription. Many Ayurvedic herbs are regulated — some are restricted. We check your specific items against the TGA list before shipping.
