Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This Tariff Concession Order (TCO) allows businesses to import specific toilet brushes at a reduced customs duty rate—typically duty-free.

What it covers: Stainless steel toilet brushes that include a stand and holder, falling under customs classification 9603.90.00.

Why it exists: Under Australia's customs system, the government can lower import taxes on specific goods when no Australian manufacturer produces a substitutable (interchangeable) local version. This order declares that these particular bathroom accessories qualify for that tax break.

Who it affects:

Importers: Companies importing these specific stainless steel toilet brushes pay less customs duty.
Local manufacturers: Any Australian company making similar toilet brushes could apply to have this concession revoked.

Key details:

Order number: 0834522
Effective from: 8 October 2008
Made by: Wendy Knowles (delegate of the Chief Executive Officer)
Duration: Continues indefinitely until revoked under sections 269SC or 269SD of the Customs Act 1901
