Plain English Summary

What this does: This order allows specific hand-knitting yarn to be imported into Australia without paying customs duty (or at a reduced rate).

Who it affects: Importers of polyester filament yarn sold in small balls for hand knitting—specifically, balls weighing between 40 and 60 grams.

Key details:

Goods covered: Fancy polyester filament yarn for hand knitting, packaged in balls of 40–60 grams (falling under tariff classification 5406.10.00)
The concession: The goods are covered by Item 50 in Schedule 4 of the Customs Tariff, which permits duty-free entry
Effective date: 10 February 2006
Duration: Remains in force until explicitly revoked or replaced

Why it matters: This reduces import costs for businesses bringing in these craft supplies, making the yarn cheaper for Australian retailers and consumers compared to paying standard tariffs.
