In most cases, goods are low risk and will be returned to you after the inspection. However, if a biosecurity officer deems the goods to have some risk you can pay for the goods to be treated, pay to export the goods, or voluntarily dispose of the goods.
Hotels and restaurants do not add service charges to your bill, and tipping is always your choice. In up market restaurants, it is common to tip waiters 10 per cent of the bill for good service.
