The textile sector in the Australia–USA FTA is subject to specific rules of origin and transport. This direct transport evidence must prove that textiles, apparel, or finished goods were transported directly from Australia to the USA without intermediate storage or transshipment in third countries. The procedure protects domestic industries in both countries from circumvention schemes and ensures that only genuine bilateral trade flows benefit from tariff concessions. Freight forwarders and customs brokers in the textile sector must carefully maintain this documentation for every shipment.
