Plain English Summary

2/10 complexity

This order cancels a previous tax exemption for importing specific portable buildings into Australia.

What it does:

Revokes (cancels) Tariff Concession Order 0828162, which previously allowed certain prefabricated transportable buildings to enter Australia duty-free (without paying import taxes)
Applies specifically to portable buildings that are "CSC plated" (certified as safe for international shipping container transport), made of steel structures, with electrical installations
The cancellation took effect on 1 April 2010

Who it affects: Businesses importing transportable, prefabricated modular buildings that meet international container safety standards. These importers must now pay customs duties under tariff classification 9406.00.00.

Why it matters: This makes importing these specific types of modular or portable site offices/accommodation more expensive. The government likely revoked the concession because Australian manufacturers demonstrated they could competitively supply these goods locally, or to protect domestic industry from cheaper imports.
