kailangang i-declare ang mga wooden articles.. (photo frame, bangles, guitar etc)..

1. Goods that may be prohibited or subject to restrictions, such as
medicines, steroids, illegal pornography, firearms, weapons or illicit drugs?

3. Goods obtained overseas or purchased duty and/or tax free in Australia
with a combined total price of more than AUD$900, including gifts?
--> for item # 3 po, mga newly purchased items po ba ito? So yung mga new clothes/shoes/other stuffs/electronics na dadalhin namin ay dapat hindi lalagpas ng AUD$900?
7. Grains, seeds, bulbs, straw, nuts, plants, parts of plants, traditional
medicines or herbs, wooden articles?
--> dito pala sa # 7 pumapasok ang wooden materials
9. Soil, items with soil attached or used in freshwater areas

1. Hindi namn prohibited ang mga over-the-counter meds like paracetamol at vitamins. So nung ako tinanong ko sa mga staff dun kung kailangan ko ba i declare, sabi nila pag for personal use lang ok lng na hndi.
3. Pag brand new lang po. So ako meron din mga bagong clothes/shoes.. Sympre inalis ko ang mga orignal packaging, price tag at kunyari luma na.
7. Yes wooden articles dito..
9. Yup dapat linisin mabuti..
Nakalagay po din sa form if you are unsure.. Tick yes and let them decide to avoid penalty..

Kasama sya sa things to do after arrival and with equal importance sa pag register sa TFN, Medicare, etc.
Kailangan natin ifulfill yun as part ng Health Undertaking.
Pero to be sure pwede mo din cguro ask si CO mo kung pwede ba sya gawin sa next visit mo na lang.
