 Service History
 
 Service is our business.
 
 Formed in 1982, Seabird has been successfully trading for 
                over 22 years. Our continued growth is attributable to strong 
                company management and financial stability. Our commitment to 
                service excellence has established us as one of Australia's 
                leading freight service providers.
 
 Our innovative leadership in the introduction of advanced 
                information management and freight tracking capabilities will 
                continue to strengthen our growth and enhance our service 
                excellence as the world moves toward the rapid uptake of 
                electronic commerce.
 
 Seabird has the latest technology in cargo tracking and duty 
                calculations. We provide you with real time, on-line information 
                about your consignments when and where you need it. This is why 
                Seabird is regarded as one of Australia's leading forwarding 
                and customs agents.
 
 Our working philosophy is to ensure that our customers always 
                come first. We aim to become your business partner, offering 
                expert advice and solutions to all your importing, exporting and 
                warehousing needs.
 
 Seabird has had no customs penalties issued against it or its 
                clients and is well regarded by the Australian Customs Service.
 
 The number of penalties issued against an importer, exporter or 
                broker impacts on the way the Australian Customs Service treats 
                particular shippers and brokers. Importers and brokers with no 
                penalty history generally enjoy lower customs scrutiny and 
                minimal delays in delivery.

 If your overall cargo volume does not

                                          Quarantine Clearance
 
 Don't let a customs clearance problem 
                                          cost your business time and money.
 
 Australian Customs and Quarantine 
                                          formalities for the clearance of 
                                          imports or exports consignments are 
                                          highly regulated in Australia. The 
                                          correct preparation and completion of 
                                          the clearance procedures are critical, 
                                          as heavy penalties may be applied if 
                                          the correct procedures are not 
                                          fulfilled.
 
 Seabird can ensure the appropriate 
                                          documentation is filled out and the 
                                          correct importing and exporting 
                                          procedures followed to minimise 
                                          clearance delays.
 
 Our systems are electronically linked 
                                          to the Australian Customs Service, the 
                                          Australian Quarantine Service and 
                                          other government departments. This 
                                          means we access duty rates, duty 
                                          concessions and other information 
                                          traditionally stored in numerous 
                                          volumes of paper binders within an 
                                          instant. This combined with our expert 
                                          clearance personnel ensures our 
                                          clearance service is second to none.
 
 Should you decide to utilise our 
                                          overseas forwarding network we will 
                                          provide electronic import documents 
                                          well before your shipment is due. This 
                                          procedure allows the processing of the 
                                          customs quarantine formalities in 
                                          advance of the actual cargo arrival.
