Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

What this does: This order removes a special import duty discount (called a tariff concession) for specific electric lawn mowers. From 27 August 2007, importers must pay the standard customs duty rate instead of the lower concessional rate.

Who it affects: Businesses importing walk-behind 240V electric lawn mowers into Australia.

Which goods are affected? The revocation applies only to mowers meeting all these criteria:

Power: Motor between 1,500W and 1,900W
Size: Cutting width no more than 360mm
Weight: No more than 16kg
Type: 240V electric, walk-behind style

Key dates:

The previous concession (Order 0707215) operated from 15 May 2007
The concession ends on 26 August 2007
This revocation takes effect on 27 August 2007

Why it matters: This increases the cost of importing these specific lawn mowers, as they will now attract the full tariff rate under customs classification 8433.11.00.
