Can I make a Tourist Refund Scheme (TRS) claim if travelling on the A319?
Yes. TRS claims can be processed by Customs at Hobart International Airport. You will need to present the goods on which you are claiming TRS to Customs at this time. Please note that goods you are claiming on TRS will be included in your 45 kg check-in baggage limit.
In general terms, TRS claims are only suitable for people who will be wintering in Antarctica. If you are travelling to Antarctica for a summer or shorter period, you may be required to pay duty on the goods when you return.
To find out more information on the TRS Scheme, please go the Customs website.
Please read the information contained in the above website, or contact Customs on 1300 363 263, for clarification.
