Quote:ARE FREIGHT AND INSURANCE COSTS INCLUDED?
The Customs value does not include freight and insurance costs in transporting the goods from the ‘place of export’ to Australia.

To quote the rest of the section that you quoted from:
Quote:However, any inland freight and inland insurance costs incurred
by the purchaser before the goods leave the ‘place of export’ are
included in the Customs value.
I think that implies if you pay Pine64/shipper to send goods via DHL to Australia that cost could be part of the total value for customs. Actually, I think whomever wrote that entire publication made an error in that section because it contradicts what was written in the first section.
