What "grey import" means and why it matters for MikroTik
A grey import is genuine hardware bought through a channel not authorised for the destination market — often a MikroTik unit intended for the EU or US market, resold into Australia through an online marketplace. The unit itself may be authentic, but two things are usually wrong with it here: the regional wireless variant may not be certified for Australian frequencies and power limits under ACMA rules, and the warranty path typically routes back through the original region's distributor, not an Australian one, which means a return or repair can mean posting the unit overseas.
How to check a MikroTik listing before you buy
A few checks separate a genuine Australian-channel listing from a grey import or a used unit sold as new: does the listing mention Australian stock explicitly, rather than just "ships worldwide"? Does the seller issue a GST tax invoice, which requires an Australian business presence? Is a phone number and physical business address published, not just a marketplace storefront? Does the price sit close to other Australian suppliers, rather than being unusually cheap in a way that suggests parallel import or old stock?

Common questions
Straight answers from the ARC IP Networks team. Last reviewed September 2026.
Grey import refers to genuine MikroTik hardware sourced through a distribution channel not intended for the Australian market, often region-locked to different Wi-Fi frequency rules and warranted only through an overseas distributor rather than locally.
ARC IP Networks sources genuine MikroTik hardware through MikroTik's Australian distribution channel, supplying it with the correct AU power leads and regional wireless variant, backed by manufacturer warranty. It is not a grey import or parallel import source.
MikroTik wireless products sold for the Australian market are built to operate within ACMA's frequency and power rules for their band. A device imported for another region's regulatory framework may not meet these limits, which is one of the practical risks of buying grey import stock.
It frequently comes from regions with lower retail pricing or is old stock cleared out overseas, and the seller carries none of the cost of local warranty support, Australian compliance certification, or holding local stock, all of which a genuine AU-channel supplier factors into price.
Ask whether the stock is sourced through MikroTik's Australian distribution channel, whether warranty is handled locally or requires shipping the unit overseas, and whether a GST tax invoice is issued, which confirms an Australian business is standing behind the sale.
