How does Australian biosecurity work for green coffee?

Green coffee imported to Australia is subject to Department of Agriculture (DAFF) biosecurity inspection. We supply clean, GrainPro-lined green coffee with the documentation your customs broker needs, minimising the risk of holds or treatment. For first-time importers we guide you through the requirements.

What import duty applies to green coffee in Australia?

Green (unroasted) coffee enters Australia duty-free — there is no import tariff. GST applies on import and is claimable by registered businesses. We provide the certificate of origin and phytosanitary documentation required for clearance.

Which Australian ports do you ship to?

We ship to Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane on CIF terms, or FOB Djibouti if you manage your own freight. Tell us your preferred port for a quote.

What SCA scores do your lots achieve?

Our exportable specialty lots typically score 85–92 SCA, with Guji and Yirgacheffe frequently 87–91. Every lot is cupped by independent licensed Q-graders and shipped with its cupping score sheet.

Do you ship free samples to Australia?

Yes — free cupping samples couriered to any Australian address, usually within 8–12 business days. Each includes 250g green coffee per origin, an SCA cupping report and a traceability document. Request yours and we'll confirm within 24 hours.
