Can you buy duty free at Kuala Lumpur for travel to Australia?

It’s worth noting that if your flight transits through an Australian airport en route to your final destination, you will be rescreened at the transit airport and you may not take liquid, aerosol and gel products (including duty free) in excess of the restrictions through the screening point. Please check with your airline whether your flight transits another airport in Australia (e.g. Kuala Lumpur–Brisbane–Sydney).

From Brunei Air’s website: “Liquids, gels or aerosols bought at airport Duty Free outlets or shops will be packed and placed in transparent, security tamper-evident bag (STEBs). However, rules also vary depending on where the passengers are flying to e.g. Australian authorities require shop personnel to hand-deliver Duty Free items / goods in STEBs to passengers at the boarding gate, and only for direct flights (point-to-point) e.g. KUL/SYD.

So the result of all this is, that IF you are doing a direct flight from KUL to Aus, then yes, you can get them delivered to the gate, and take duty free safely to Australia with you.

Yes, I was last in KL about 12 months ago, and they do deliver the duty free goods to the gate for you.
