Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This order cancels a previous tax break for specific imported steel products.

What it does

Revokes Tariff Concession Order 0805576, which had allowed certain steel products to enter Australia at reduced customs duty rates (meaning importers paid less tax on them).
The affected goods are tubular structural steel piles—hollow steel tubes used in construction for building foundations, piers, and supports—classified under tariff code 7308.90.00.

Who it affects

Importers bringing these specific steel piles into Australia.
From the revocation date (7 November 2008), these goods no longer qualify for the concessional duty rate and must pay standard customs tariffs.

Why it matters

This increases the import cost of these construction materials, potentially affecting building and infrastructure projects that rely on imported steel piles rather than locally manufactured alternatives.
