Normally, if you use imported parts to make something, those parts might disqualify the final product from getting tariff benefits. However, if a material is classified as a \"manufactured raw material,\" it counts as originating from that country even if it contains some non-originating content.\n\n**Who it affects:**\n- **Manufacturers** in Australia who import these engines from New Zealand to use in making other products\n- **Importers** of goods containing these engines, who can now claim preferential tariff treatment more easily\n- **Businesses** trading under the Australia-New Zealand free trade agreement\n\nIn short: This notice makes it easier for Australian manufacturers to use New Zealand-made engines in their products while still getting duty-free or reduced-duty access to the Australian market."},"flash_summary":{"complexity_score":2,"scope_assessment":{"changed":true,"description":"This Notice alters the set of materials formally recorded as \"manufactured raw materials of New Zealand\" by adding a single item: vertical shaft reciprocating four-stroke engines (tariff 8407.90.30) with an operative date of 20 April 2004.
