Plain English Summary

2/10 complexity

This order removes a special import duty exemption (tariff concession) for specific high-grade steel bars used in manufacturing and engineering.

What it does

Revokes Tariff Concession Order 9404552, which previously allowed certain steel bars to enter Australia duty-free
Affects only steel bars classified under tariff code 7228.60.10 meeting exact technical criteria: grade 8620H (modified), sulphur content 0.015%–0.05%, diameter 45–75mm, and specific hardness ratings (HRC values)

Who it affects

Importers of these specific steel bars (typically used in automotive, machinery, and engineering applications)
Businesses must now pay standard customs duties on these goods rather than importing them duty-free

Why it matters

Increases import costs for manufacturers relying on these specific steel products
The revocation typically indicates that Australian industry can now competitively supply these goods locally, or that the original concession no longer serves its intended purpose
