7 Application of cargo reporting provisions

(1) To the extent that the ITM import amendments would, apart from this section, apply in relation to: (a) the impending arrival, or arrival, of a ship or aircraft at its first port or airport in Australia from a place outside Australia; or (b) the unloading of cargo from a ship or aircraft; those amendments only apply in relation to a ship or aircraft, or the unloading of cargo from a ship or aircraft: (c) that is due to arrive at its first port or airport in Australia at or after the import cut‑over time; or (d) that has arrived at its first port or airport in Australia and that was due to arrive at that port or airport at or after the import cut‑over time; or (e) that arrives at its first port or airport in Australia at or after the turn‑off time. (2) To avoid doubt, paragraphs (1)(c) and (d) apply even if the ship or aircraft arrives at its first port or airport in Australia before the import cut‑over time. (3) To avoid doubt, the unamended Customs Act continues to apply in relation to a ship or aircraft that is due to arrive at its first port or airport in Australia before the import cut‑over time, unless the ship or aircraft arrives after the turn‑off time.
