Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This document approves an Incoming Passenger Card in Korean for people arriving in Australia.

When you fly or sail into Australia, you must fill out a card declaring any personal belongings or household items you're bringing with you. This instrument officially approves a Korean-language version of that form (Form No. 15 KOR, dated November 2009).

Why it matters:

It allows Korean-speaking passengers to complete their customs declarations in their native language instead of English
It ensures these declarations legally satisfy requirements under the Customs Act 1901
It covers "personal effects" (clothes, personal items) and household goods that passengers carry with them rather than shipping separately

The approval was made by the Acting CEO of Customs using powers granted by the Customs Act and Regulations.
