Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This order removes a duty-free import arrangement for specific steel pipes used mainly in oil and gas pipelines.

What it does:

Revokes (cancels) Tariff Concession Order 0819860, which previously allowed certain welded steel pipes to enter Australia without paying customs duty (called a "tariff concession")
The affected pipes must meet exact specifications: electric resistance welded, API 5L Grade X70 standard, 508mm outer diameter, 9.5mm wall thickness (with 10% tolerance allowed either way)

Who it affects:

Importers of these specific steel pipes (classified under customs tariff code 7305.12.00)
Businesses in the oil, gas, or construction sectors importing high-grade pipeline steel

Why it matters:

Importers will now need to pay standard customs duties on these pipes, increasing import costs
The revocation took effect on 22 October 2008
