Charges, con't

Oh, and I'd just like to bring this to everyone's attention:

Import Document Fee 10%=4.80 48.00

That's $52.80 (including GST) for a document. A document. Someone has to look at a piece of paper and sign it, so I get to pay $52.80

That's more than half the cost of the Terminal fee. You know, the $88 I pay for the privilege of having my cargo turn up at their precious terminal. Which, of course, doesn't include the $49.50 I'm paying to have it taken off the plane, or the $27.50 for the Cargo Automation. I don't know what Cargo Automation is, but it sounds suspiciously like someone pressing a button and letting the machine do all the work.

Oh, how I miss the postal service.
