Australia has very strict laws relating to the importation and possession of certain goods. Food, plant material and animal products from overseas--including many common souvenirs -could introduce some of the world’s most serious pests and diseases into Australia. Failing to declare quarantine items （需要檢疫的物品） on arrival could destroy our agriculture, tourism industries and special environment.

       * you will get caught;

       * you could be fined over a $ 200 on-the-spot; or

       * you could be prosecuted and fined more than a $ 60,000 fine and risk up to 10 years
