23Local entry of imported goods (AD10)

#### 23 Local entry of imported goods (AD10) (1) Table 2 sets out the situations that amount to a local entry of imported goods for the purposes of the sales tax law. The rest of this section deals with situations involving the withdrawal of a customs entry, or multiple local entries of the same goods. (2) The withdrawal of the customs entry underlying a formal local entry (the earlier local entry) usually has the effect that the earlier local entry is taken never to have happened. However, if: (a) there is a later formal local entry after the withdrawal; and (b) the tax on that later entry would be less than the tax on the earlier local entry; then the earlier local entry is taken never to have been extinguished and the later entry is taken never to have happened. (3) If a formal local entry happens after a deemed local entry, the formal local entry is taken never to have happened. (4) If a deemed local entry happens after a formal local entry, the formal local entry is taken never to have happened. (5) In this section: > customs entry means an entry for home consumption under the Customs Act. > Deemed local entry means a local entry that is not a formal local entry. > Formal local entry means a local entry covered by LE1 or LE2 in Table 2.
