Business Continuity
In emergency situations where Tariff Concession clients are unable to communicate with Customs and Border Protection by email, please be aware that applications and correspondence can be lodged by facsimile or post. The fax number is 02-6275 6376. The postal address is Tariff Concessions, Customs and Border Protection, 5 Constitution Avenue, Canberra. 2601.
The inability to access email can occur for many reasons, including transmission disruptions, government security requirements, and mailbox size. Clients are requested to keep size of attachments below 3 MB to ensure they are able to be received by CBP.
Note that s269F(4) specifies that an application for a TCO is taken to have been lodged when it is first received by an officer of Customs, not when it is sent. If an application is received outside of normal working hours, its lodgement date will be recorded as the next day that it is received by an on-duty officer of Customs.
Tariff Concessions Gazette
The Commonwealth of Australia Tariff Concessions Gazette (the Gazette) gives legal effect to the creation of a number of legislative instruments such as By-Laws, Tariff Concession Orders (TCO's), TCO Revocations and Determinations. It also provides an avenue to identify, advise and provide information on a number of tariff concession issues.
Note that objectors to the making of a TCO are not indentified unless the objection is successful.
The Gazette is published by the Cargo and Trade Division of Australian Customs and Border Protection Service each Wednesday.
For gazettes prior to 2008 see the Tariff Concessions Gazette Archive.
