Practically, importers of those machines pay reduced customs duty; the CEO’s delegate made the declaration; importers must demonstrate the goods meet the written description to claim the concession, creating a documentation/compliance task and a foregone revenue effect for government."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/tariff-concession-order-1135768","history":"/api/acts/tariff-concession-order-1135768/history","analysis":"/api/acts/tariff-concession-order-1135768/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/tariff-concession-order-1135768/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/tariff-concession-order-1135768/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/tariff-concession-order-1135768/documents"}}
