Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This order removes a tax break (tariff concession) on imported classical and folk guitars.

What it does:

Revokes (cancels) Tariff Concession Order 0710297, which previously allowed certain guitars to enter Australia without paying the usual import duties (taxes)
Specifically targets guitars classified under tariff code 9202.90.00, including classical and folk music guitars
The revocation took effect on 18 September 2007

Who it affects:

Importers of classical and folk guitars
Music retailers importing these instruments
Manufacturers shipping guitars to Australia

Why it matters: Without this concession, importers must now pay standard customs duties on these guitars, potentially increasing the retail price of imported classical and folk guitars in Australia.
