Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This order gives businesses a discount on import taxes (customs duties) for specific large industrial cooling equipment.

Specifically, it applies to absorption chillers — heavy-duty cooling systems used in large buildings, industrial plants, or district cooling networks — that have a cooling capacity of at least 1,000 kilowatts (roughly the size needed for a large hospital or major shopping centre).

Under this order, these chillers (classified under customs code 8418.69.00) qualify for a tariff concession under Item 50 of Schedule 4 to the Customs Tariff Act 1995. This means they can be imported into Australia at a reduced customs duty rate or duty-free, making it cheaper for companies to buy this specific high-capacity equipment from overseas.

Who benefits: Importers of large absorption chillers (cooling capacity ≥1,000 kW). When it applies: From 3 August 2009 until revoked or replaced.
