China has ended anti-dumping and anti-subsidy tariffs on Australian wine imports, which may help mend the $1.1 billion trade relationship.

The tariffs, in place since March 2021 due to diplomatic tensions, have been a significant barrier to wine trade.

While some Australian exports still face restrictions, the wine tariff removal is a notable move toward improving bilateral trade ties.

Australian Assistant Trade Minister Tim Ayres attributes this positive outcome to the government's diplomatic efforts.

The New South Wales (NSW) government is set to aid Australian companies in re-entering the Chinese market with events and educational support.

The Australian wine industry views this development as an opportunity for economic recovery and reconnection with Chinese consumers.
