Plain English Summary

2/10 complexity

This order cancels a previous tax break for importing a specific type of plastic resin used to make water bottles and food packaging.

What it does The order revokes Tariff Concession Order 0509438, which previously allowed certain polyethylene terephthalate (PET) copolymer to be imported without paying standard customs duty. The cancellation takes effect from 20 March 2007.

Who is affected Businesses importing PET copolymer that meets these specific technical criteria:

Intrinsic viscosity between 0.75 and 0.87 decilitres per gram
Complies with ASTM 4603 standards
Acetaldehyde levels below 1 part per million

Why it matters Importers of this specific plastic resin will now need to pay full customs duties instead of benefiting from the concessional rate. This increases the cost of importing these goods into Australia.
