Australia’s commercial, investment and migration landscape is deeply connected to Asia. Individuals and businesses operating across these borders face not only different legal systems, but different regulatory expectations, commercial norms and approaches to risk. Navigating those differences successfully requires more than technical legal advice. It requires judgment, context and experience.
Hunt & Hunt has advised on Asia–Australia trade, investment and cross-border activity for decades and was one of the first Australian law firms to establish a presence in China. That long-standing engagement has shaped our understanding of Asian markets, regulatory environments and business culture, and continues to inform how we advise clients today.
Our Asia Advisory practice supports Asian individuals and businesses operating in Australia, Asian-owned enterprises investing or trading here, and Australian organisations doing business across Asia. We act for private investors, family groups, SMEs, multinational businesses and government-connected entities on matters that cut across corporate, property, trade, disputes, employment, regulatory compliance and migration.
We have particular depth in China-related matters, including inbound Chinese investment into Australia, outbound Australian operations in China, and cross-border disputes and arbitration. That capability sits within a broader Asia-focused practice encompassing South and South-East Asia, allowing us to deliver advice that is regionally informed rather than country-specific or siloed.
A key point of difference in our Asia Advisory offering is our experience advising on international trade, customs and anti-dumping matters. We regularly assist importers, exporters and distributors navigating Australian regulatory regimes, supply-chain risk and enforcement action — issues that can have immediate and significant commercial consequences for Asian businesses trading into Australia.
What distinguishes our approach is perspective. Many members of our team have lived, worked or practised extensively in Asia, and several are fluent in Asian languages. We understand how business is conducted, how trust is built and how decisions are made. That insight allows us to bridge legal, cultural and commercial gaps and deliver advice that is practical, efficient and aligned with our clients’ objectives.
We advise:
Our clients range from first-time entrants to Australia through to sophisticated, long-established international operators.
Our Asia Advisory practice spans the full range of legal issues encountered in cross-border activity, including:
We regularly coordinate advice across multiple practice areas to ensure clients receive integrated, consistent guidance rather than fragmented solutions.
Trade regulation is a critical and often underestimated risk for Asian businesses trading into Australia. Anti-dumping investigations, customs audits and regulatory enforcement can have immediate financial and operational impact.
We advise importers and exporters on trade compliance, investigation strategy, submissions and reviews, with a clear understanding of how Australian regulators approach these matters. Our focus is on protecting supply chains, managing exposure and resolving issues efficiently, while preserving long-term commercial relationships.
Migration is a core pillar of Hunt & Hunt’s Asia Advisory offering and is treated as a dedicated sub-practice.
We advise individuals, families and businesses on Australian migration pathways, with a strong focus on Asian clients and cross-border commercial matters. Our migration practice is led by Chong, widely regarded as one of Australia’s leading migration lawyers, particularly in complex business, investor and employer-sponsored migration.
Migration advice is delivered in close coordination with our corporate, property and employment teams, ensuring visa strategy aligns with broader commercial, investment and workforce objectives. A dedicated Migration page provides further detail on this specialised capability.
Commercial first. We start with the client’s objective — market entry, expansion, investment, protection or exit — and build legal strategy around that goal.
Cross-cultural insight. We tailor advice to different business cultures, expectations and decision-making styles.
Integrated delivery. Asia-related matters rarely sit in one practice area. We work collaboratively across the firm to deliver cohesive outcomes.
Clear communication. We explain options, risks and timelines plainly, particularly for clients operating outside their home legal system.
Trusted networks. Through long-standing regional relationships and international legal networks, we support clients wherever their business takes them.
We cut through legal, cultural and regulatory complexity to help you move forward with confidence.
Migration is central to many Asia–Australia matters. We advise individuals, families and businesses on strategic migration pathways, led by one of Australia’s leading migration lawyers, ensuring visa outcomes align with long-term commercial, employment and investment objectives.

以下为准确、专业、适合律所官网与客户资料使用的简体中文译文，语气正式、自然，符合商业与法律语境（非机翻风格）：
澳大利亚的商业、投资及移民环境与亚洲高度融合。跨境经营的个人和企业不仅要面对不同的法律体系，还需应对不同的监管要求、商业惯例及风险管理方式。要在这些差异中成功运作，所需的不仅是技术层面的法律建议，更需要判断力、背景理解与实务经验。
Hunt & Hunt 数十年来持续为澳大利亚与亚洲之间的贸易、投资及跨境活动提供法律服务，并且是最早在中国设立业务布局的澳大利亚律师事务所之一。这种长期、深入的参与，使我们对亚洲市场、监管环境及商业文化形成了深刻理解，并持续影响着我们今天为客户提供的法律建议方式。
我们的亚洲咨询业务（Asia Advisory）为在澳大利亚运营的亚洲个人和企业、在澳投资或开展贸易的亚洲背景企业，以及在亚洲开展业务的澳大利亚机构提供法律支持。我们服务的客户包括私人投资者、家族企业、中小企业、跨国公司以及具有政府背景的机构，所涉事项涵盖公司、房地产、贸易、争议解决、雇佣关系、监管合规及移民等多个领域。
我们在与中国相关的事务方面具备尤为突出的经验，包括中国资本进入澳大利亚投资、澳大利亚企业在中国的对外经营，以及跨境争议与仲裁。该能力建立在更广泛的亚洲业务体系之中，覆盖南亚及东南亚地区，使我们能够提供具有区域视角的综合建议，而非局限于单一国家或割裂的法律服务。
我们亚洲咨询业务的一大显著优势，在于我们在国际贸易、海关及反倾销事务方面的丰富经验。我们长期协助进口商、出口商及分销商应对澳大利亚的监管制度、供应链风险及执法调查——这些问题往往会对亚洲企业在澳贸易活动产生直接且重大的商业影响。
我们的方法区别在于“视角”。团队中多位成员曾在亚洲长期生活、工作或执业，且多名律师精通亚洲语言。我们理解当地商业运作方式、信任的建立过程以及决策机制。这种洞察力使我们能够有效衔接法律、文化与商业差异，提供切实可行、高效且契合客户目标的法律建议。
我们为以下客户提供法律服务：
我们的客户既包括首次进入澳大利亚市场的企业，也包括长期深耕国际市场的成熟经营者。
亚洲咨询业务覆盖跨境经营中常见的各类法律问题，包括但不限于：
我们经常跨多个业务团队协同工作，确保客户获得的是整合一致的法律方案，而非零散的个别建议。
贸易监管是亚洲企业进入澳大利亚市场时一个关键却常被低估的风险领域。反倾销调查、海关审计及监管执法行动，往往会对企业的财务及运营产生立竿见影的影响。
我们为进出口企业提供贸易合规、调查应对、申诉及复审方面的法律建议，并深刻理解澳大利亚监管机构的执法思路。我们的重点在于保护供应链、控制风险敞口，并以高效方式解决问题，同时维护长期的商业合作关系。
移民业务是 Hunt & Hunt 亚洲咨询体系中的核心组成部分，并作为独立的专业板块运作。
我们为个人、家庭及企业提供澳大利亚移民路径规划，尤其专注于亚洲客户及跨境商业相关事务。我们的移民业务由 Chong 领导，他被广泛认为是澳大利亚顶尖的移民律师之一，尤其在复杂的商业移民、投资移民及雇主担保移民领域享有盛誉。
移民法律意见与我们的公司、房地产及雇佣团队紧密协作，确保签证策略与整体商业、投资及人力资源目标保持一致。相关专业能力在专门的移民页面中有进一步说明。
以商业目标为先
我们从客户的核心目标出发——市场进入、业务扩展、投资布局、风险防控或退出安排——并围绕该目标制定法律策略。
跨文化洞察
我们根据不同的商业文化、预期及决策方式，量身定制法律建议。
整合式服务
亚洲相关事务往往涉及多个法律领域，我们通过跨团队协作提供连贯一致的解决方案。
