MILK Books is a NZ-based company. We are required to charge any NZ-based customers GST (whether you are purchasing a Pre-Purchase Voucher or a product).
Due to Australian GST import laws we are also required to charge Australian-based customers GST (whether you are purchasing a Pre-Purchase Voucher or a product).
For both, the added cost will be displayed at checkout as VAT. (However for Australian customers with an order value of over $1000 (incl. shipping), GST will be charged at the border upon the order reaching Australia along with other fees charged by the Australian Border Force.
These other fees are an Import Processing charge (electronic lodgment) and a Biosecurity charge (air shipment). The Import Processing charge is $50 AUD and the Biosecurity charge is $43 AUD. You can see more about these charges via the links above. The prices are accurate as of 21 October 2023. For more information, please contact your local customs authority.
Gift Vouchers do not constitute a good (or service) and are not subject to GST. Gift Vouchers can be applied to GST charges.
