Whether you are chasing sunshine in Brisbane, pursuing a career in Melbourne, or beginning a new life in Perth, AMC makes moving from Ireland to Australia smooth and compliant. We export-pack your household goods, ship them via Singapore or Dubai, clear Australian Border Force and DAFF (quarantine) inspections, and deliver anywhere across the continent.
Sea freight: consolidated lift-vans sail weekly, reaching Australian ports in 38–45 days on water; allow 8–10 weeks door-to-door including quarantine. Air freight: ideal for unaccompanied luggage; 7–10 day transit door-to-door.
Australia has some of the world’s strictest bio-security rules. We complete Form B534 (Unaccompanied Personal Effects Statement), arrange the mandatory DAFF inspection, and manage fumigation or cleaning if needed. Used household goods are duty-free; new items can attract 5 % duty + GST. We advise case-by-case.

A. We’ll store goods in Naas or in our Australian partner warehouse until you receive keys.
