This Order declares that specific high‑alloy steel plates—defined by exact hardness, yield and tensile strengths and minimum elongation—are to be treated as goods covered by item 50 in Part III of Schedule 4 to the Customs Tariff Act 1995, effective 18 November 2009 until revoked. Made under section 269P by a delegate of the Chief Executive Officer, it changes how those imported plates are classified for customs tariff purposes.
Mechanically, importers must have these precise technical criteria met and customs officers must apply Schedule 4 item 50 to qualifying consignments; the narrow specification limits eligibility but increases verification requirements at import.
