The Commercial Section
The Australian Trade and Investment Commission (Austrade) is the Australian Government’s leading trade and investment agency. In Japan, Austrade operates as the Commercial Section of the Australian Embassy in Tokyo and the Australian Consulate - General in Osaka.
The commercial section is expert in connecting Australian businesses to Japan and Japan to Australian businesses. It has a proud history of helping Australian businesses pursue their global ambitions and the power to open doors, unlock opportunities and help Australian businesses go further, faster.
The commercial section also helps attract game-changing investment from Japan to Australia, to support new industries, enhance existing ones and bolster their world-class research and development – strengthening global supply chains, creating local jobs, and boosting the local economy, in the process.
From trade and investment processes to protocols and regulation, the commercial section assists Australian businesses, big or small, navigate complex overseas markets and make it easier for them to go global. Advice, contacts and support at every step reduces the commercial risk of exporting to overseas markets.
