The equipment covered includes:\n- Conveyor screws and/or injector blowers\n- Pre-crystallisers\n- Extruders\n- Melt filters\n- Under-water and/or strand pelletisers\n\n**Who it affects:**\n- **Importers** of this specific machinery can bring it into Australia without paying the usual customs duty (or at a reduced rate)\n- **Australian manufacturers** who use this equipment (typically in plastics recycling or manufacturing)\n\n**Why it matters:**\nTariff concessions make it cheaper to import specialised equipment that isn't made in Australia. This helps local businesses stay competitive by reducing their capital costs. The order took effect on **30 November 2004** and remains in force until it's formally cancelled or replaced.\n\n**The legal basis:**\nThe order is made under the *Customs Act 1901* by a delegate of the Australian Border Force (or its predecessor agency). It references specific tariff classification **8477.80.00** (machinery for working rubber or plastics) and applies **Item 50** from Part III of Schedule 4 to the *Customs Tariff Act 1995*."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/tariff-concession-order-0412877","history":"/api/acts/tariff-concession-order-0412877/history","analysis":"/api/acts/tariff-concession-order-0412877/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/tariff-concession-order-0412877/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/tariff-concession-order-0412877/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/tariff-concession-order-0412877/documents"}}
