INTERNATIONAL FREIGHT ASSISTANCE MECHANISM
OUTBOUND FLIGHT SCHEDULE AS AT 29 SEPTEMBER
The Australian Government’s International Freight Assistance Mechanism (IFAM) is a temporary measure to help restore critical global supply chains which have been heavily impacted by COVID-19 containment measures around the world. IFAM keeps high-value, time sensitive and perishable exports and vital imports, such as medical supplies and other essential items, flowing so we can resume servicing existing supply contracts with their international customers. The following information outlines the outbound flights supported by IFAM at the time of publishing and are subject to change. To gain access to these flights, Australian exporters should submit an EOI and contact their freight forwarder. If IFAM-supported flights do not meet exporter needs, freight forwarders can consider applying for grants assistance through IFAM. See more information on grant assistance and IFAM at www.austrade.gov.au/ifam
