What this order does: Declares that rectangular non‑alloy steel bars meeting specific resistivity (≤20 µΩ/cm) and carbon (≤0.06%) limits (tariff classification 7214.91.00) are goods to which Item 50 of Part III of Schedule 4 to the Customs Tariff Act 1995 applies, effective 12 May 2008 (made under s.269P Customs Act 1901; revocable under ss.269SC/269SD).
Who it affects and why it matters: Importers of those precise steel bars and customs officials are affected because the tariff treatment changes; importers must demonstrate the goods meet the technical specs to receive the Schedule 4 treatment.
