Royal jelly is generally allowed into Australia but must be declared upon arrival and typically needs to be commercially prepared and packaged. For personal use, royal jelly is often allowed in capsules (max 800mg) or small individual units (up to 35g or 150mL). It must be declared to Biosecurity Australia to avoid fines. Products should ideally be in original, unopened, and commercially labeled packaging indicating the ingredients. Strict rules apply to avoid introducing bee pests or diseases. For example, royal jelly in large, non-commercial, or raw forms may be denied entry. Be aware that Western Australia has stricter, more stringent biosecurity, and importing some bee products is severely restricted. You must declare all food, plant material, and animal products, including bee products, on your Incoming Passenger Card
I did. Arrivals Perth WA. Plus a beeswax lip balm. I always declare items and always carry what I am declaring in hand luggage. Faster to get to. Never had anything taken off me from anywhere.
