This order cancels a special import tax break (called a tariff concession) for a specific type of industrial plastic.
What it does:
- Revokes (cancels) Tariff Concession Order 0509831, which previously allowed certain imports to enter Australia without paying full customs duties (or at reduced rates).
- Applies to polypropylene homopolymer resin — a plastic material used in manufacturing — but only if it meets exact technical specifications (including specific density, heat resistance, and flexibility measurements).
Who it affects:
- Businesses importing this specific type of plastic resin under the customs code 3902.10.00.
When it takes effect:
What it means:
- From that date, importers must pay the standard customs duties on these goods instead of benefiting from the revoked concession.
