Plain English Summary

2/10 complexity

What this does: This order cancels a previous tax break for importing a very specific type of plastic pellet.

The details: It revokes Tariff Concession Order 0804160 (made in June 2008), which had allowed certain importers to bring in polypropylene homopolymer without paying customs duty.

Which goods are affected: Only plastic pellets meeting all three of these precise technical specifications:

Density between 810–990 kg/m³
Melt flow rate between 34–42 g/10 minutes
Containing gas fade resistant antioxidants

Who it affects: Australian manufacturers and importers who import this specific grade of polypropylene (commonly used in packaging, automotive parts, and textiles).

Why it matters: From 18 October 2010, importers must pay standard customs duties on these goods again. This increases costs for businesses that had been relying on the duty-free concession.
