International Trade

Share your business with the world.

At Business Chamber Queensland, we minimise the stress associated with export documentation compliance. We provide timely and accurate documentation - it’s our top priority. We pride ourselves on our exceptional customer service and international trade expertise, and we offer our export documentation services across Australia.

Beyond issuing your documentation, we also have established processes in place with the Australian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (ACCI) and the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT) to resolve any issues at customs. This means your shipment is safer with us.

Beyond our export and international trade document services, Business Chamber Queensland is also a Regional Certifying Body for seven Queensland regions, granted by the Department of Home Affairs, providing advice on Skilled Employer Sponsored Regional (Provisional) visas
