Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This order removes a special tax break (called a tariff concession) that previously allowed certain battery-powered garden tools to be imported into Australia without paying standard customs duty.

What goods are affected?

DC electric trimmers and/or edgers (lawn and garden equipment)
Classified under customs tariff code 8467.29.00

What changed? Importers previously brought these goods in duty-free under Tariff Concession Order 0713171. This revocation cancels that concession, meaning standard import tariffs now apply to these items. The change took effect from 15 November 2007.

Who is affected? Businesses importing electric lawn trimmers and edging tools, and potentially consumers if import costs increase.
