Illicit methamphetamine is manufactured in clandestine chemical laboratories. In Australia these clandestine laboratories are usually found in residential areas. In the past most methamphetamine in Australia was produced domestically, but in recent years it has largely been imported from overseas, particularly from China and South-East Asia. Serious and organised crime groups are often involved in the importation, manufacture, and distribution of methamphetamine in Australia.
