O/S businesses that sell direct into Australia, over a certain annual threshold, are now required to register for GST in Australia and collect GST from the customer at the point of sale (for items under $1000 AUD). If they're selling through a platform e.g. eBay then eBay would handle that process.
For other imports the $1000 AUD threshold still applies, under $1000 and GST / duty isn't applicable, over $1000 and GST / duty is charged to the importer.
