| Dear {Firstname},
We have now received the latest Australian Customs Cargo Advice Notice: 2011 / 01
The Australian Customs and Border Protection Service is undertaking a three month campaign to ensure that existing exemptions to pay GST and customs duty on certain imported goods under $1,000 are not being abused or exploited. This campaign commenced from the beginning of 2011.
To view the ACCA go to : http://www.cargosupport.gov.au/webdata/resources/files/ACCA2011_01.pdf
For further information reply to the contact details contained in the Advice. For enquiries regarding the Integrated Cargo System please contact cargosupport@customs.gov.au or alternatively call 1300 558 099.

Outage Notifications
Customs are looking to have a revised notification service in place in the New Year. Until then, if someone wants to be added to the outage notification list, they should email: User Support icsbus@customs.gov.au and ask to have their email address added.
Please advise all concerned.
