Schedule 3Classification of goods and general and special rates of duty

Section VIIPlastics and articles thereof; rubber and articles thereof

Notes. 

 1. Goods put up in sets consisting of two or more separate constituents, some or all of which fall in this Section and are intended to be mixed together to obtain a product of Section VI or VII, are to be classified in the heading appropriate to that product, provided that the constituents are:

 (a) having regard to the manner in which they are put up, clearly identifiable as being intended to be used together without first being repacked;

 (b) presented together; and

 (c) identifiable, whether by their nature or by the relative proportions in which they are present, as being complementary one to another.

 2. Except for the goods of 3918 or 3919, plastics, rubber, and articles thereof, printed with motifs, characters or pictorial representations, which are not merely incidental to the primary use of the goods, fall in Chapter 49.

Additional Note. 

 1. For the purposes of 3926.20.21 and 4015.90.21, “antiradiation suits, anticontamination suits, and similar protective garments” means full body, vapour barrier suits for protection against toxic gases, chemicals or thermal hazards.

Chapter 39Plastics and articles thereof

Notes. 

 1. Throughout this Schedule “plastics” means those materials of 3901 to 3914.00.00 which are or have been capable, either at the moment of polymerisation or at some subsequent stage, of being formed under external influence (usually heat and pressure, if necessary with a solvent or plasticiser) by moulding, casting, extruding, rolling or other process into shapes which are retained on the removal of the external influence.

Throughout this Schedule any reference to “plastics” also includes vulcanised fibre. “Plastics”, however, does not apply to materials regarded as textile materials of Section XI.

 2. This Chapter does not cover:

 (a) Lubricating preparations of 2710 or 3403;

 (b) Waxes of 2712 or 3404;

 (c) Separate chemically defined organic compounds (Chapter 29);

 (d) Heparin or its salts (3001);

 (e) Solutions (other than collodions) consisting of any of the products specified in 3901 to 3913 in volatile organic solvents when the weight of the solvent exceeds 50% of the weight of the solution (3208); stamping foils of 3212;

 (f) Organic surfaceactive agents or preparations of 3402;

 (g) Run gums or ester gums (3806);

 (h) Prepared additives for mineral oils (including gasoline) or for other liquids used for the same purposes as mineral oils (3811);

 (ij) Prepared hydraulic fluids based on polyglycols, silicones or other polymers of Chapter 39 (3819.00.00);

 (k) Diagnostic or laboratory reagents on a backing of plastics (3822);

 (l) Synthetic rubber, as defined for the purposes of Chapter 40, or articles thereof;

 (n) Plaits, wickerwork or other articles of Chapter 46;

 (o) Wall coverings of 4814;

 (p) Goods of Section XI (textiles and textile articles);

 (q) Articles of Section XII (for example, footwear, headgear, umbrellas, sun umbrellas, walkingsticks, whips, ridingcrops or parts thereof);

 (r) Imitation jewellery of 7117;

 (s) Articles of Section XVI (machines and mechanical or electrical appliances);

 (t) Parts of aircraft or vehicles of Section XVII;

 (u) Articles of Chapter 90 (for example, optical elements, spectacle frames, drawing instruments);

 (v) Articles of Chapter 91 (for example, clock or watch cases);

 (z) Articles of Chapter 96 (for example, brushes, buttons, slide fasteners, combs, mouthpieces or stems for smoking pipes, cigaretteholders or the like, parts of vacuum flasks or the like, pens, propelling pencils).

 3. 3901 to 3911 apply only to goods of a kind produced by chemical synthesis, falling in the following categories:

 (a) Liquid synthetic polyolefins of which less than 60% by volume distils at 300 °C, after conversion to 101.3 kPa when a reducedpressure distillation method is used (3901 and 3902);

 (b) Resins, not highly polymerised, of the coumaroneindene type (3911);

 (c) Other synthetic polymers with an average of at least 5 monomer units;

 (d) Silicones (3910.00.00);

 (e) Resols (3909) and other prepolymers.

 4. “Copolymers” covers all polymers in which no single monomer unit contributes 95% or more by weight to the total polymer content.

For the purposes of this Chapter, except where the context otherwise requires, copolymers (including copolycondensates, copolyaddition products, block copolymers and graft copolymers) and polymer blends are to be classified in the heading covering polymers of that comonomer unit which predominates by weight over every other single comonomer unit. For the purposes of this Note, constituent comonomer units of polymers falling in the same heading shall be taken together.

If no single comonomer unit predominates, copolymers or polymer blends, as the case may be, are to be classified in the heading which occurs last in numerical order among those which equally merit consideration.

 5. Chemically modified polymers, that is those in which only appendages to the main polymer chain have been changed by chemical reaction, are to be classified in the heading appropriate to the unmodified polymer. This provision does not apply to graft copolymers.

 6. In 3901 to 3914.00.00, “primary forms” applies only to the following forms:

 (a) Liquids and pastes, including dispersions (emulsions and suspensions) and solutions;

 (b) Blocks of irregular shape, lumps, powders (including moulding powders), granules, flakes and similar bulk forms.

 7. 3915 does not apply to waste, parings and scrap of a single thermoplastic material, transformed into primary forms (3901 to 3914.00.00).

 8. For the purposes of 3917, “tubes, pipes and hoses” means hollow products, whether semimanufactures or finished products, of a kind generally used for conveying, conducting or distributing gases or liquids (for example, ribbed garden hose, perforated tubes). “Tubes, pipes and hoses” also includes sausage casings and other layflat tubing. However, except for the lastmentioned, those having an internal crosssection other than round, oval, rectangular (in which the length does not exceed 1.5 times the width) or in the shape of a regular polygon are not to be regarded as tubes, pipes and hoses but as profile shapes.

 9. For the purposes of 3918, “wall or ceiling coverings of plastics” applies to products in rolls, of a width not less than 45 cm, suitable for wall or ceiling decoration, consisting of plastics fixed permanently on a backing of any material other than paper, the layer of plastics (on the face side) being grained, embossed, coloured, designprinted or otherwise decorated.

 10. In 3920 and 3921, “plates, sheets, film, foil and strip” applies only to plates, sheets, film, foil and strip (other than those of Chapter 54) and to blocks of regular geometric shape, whether or not printed or otherwise surfaceworked, uncut or cut into rectangles (including squares) but not further worked (even if when so cut they become articles ready for use).

 11. 3925 applies only to the following articles, not being products covered by any of the earlier headings of subChapter II:

 (a) Reservoirs, tanks (including septic tanks), vats and similar containers, of a capacity exceeding 300 L;

 (b) Structural elements used, for example, in floors, walls or partitions, ceilings or roofs;

 (c) Gutters and fittings thereof;

 (d) Doors, windows and their frames and thresholds for doors;

 (e) Balconies, balustrades, fencing, gates and similar barriers;

 (f) Shutters, blinds (including Venetian blinds) and similar articles and parts and fittings thereof;

 (g) Largescale shelving for assembly and permanent installation, for example, in shops, workshops, warehouses;

 (h) Ornamental architectural features, for example, flutings, cupolas, dovecotes; and

 (ij) Fittings and mountings intended for permanent installation in or on doors, windows, staircases, walls or other parts of buildings, for example, knobs, handles, hooks, brackets, towel rails, switchplates and other protective plates.

Subheading Notes. 

 1. Within any one heading of this Chapter, polymers (including copolymers) and chemically modified polymers are to be classified according to the following provisions:

 (a) Where there is a subheading named “Other” in the same series:

 (1) The designation in a subheading of a polymer by the prefix “poly” (for example, polyethylene and polyamide6,6) means that the constituent monomer unit or monomer units of the named polymer taken together must contribute 95% or more by weight of the total polymer content.

 (2) The copolymers named in 3901.30.00, 3903.20.00, 3903.30.00 and 3904.30.00 are to be classified in those subheadings, provided that the comonomer units of the named copolymers contribute 95% or more by weight of the total polymer content.

 (3) Chemically modified polymers are to be classified in the subheading named “Other”, provided that the chemically modified polymers are not more specifically covered by another subheading.

 (4) Polymers not meeting (1), (2) or (3) above, are to be classified in the subheading, among the remaining subheadings in the series, covering polymers of that monomer unit which predominates by weight over every other single comonomer unit. For this purpose, constituent monomer units of polymers falling in the same subheading shall be taken together. Only the constituent comonomer units of the polymers in the series of subheadings under consideration are to be compared.

 (b) Where there is no subheading named “Other” in the same series:

 (1) Polymers are to be classified in the subheading covering polymers of that monomer unit which predominates by weight over every other single comonomer unit. For this purpose, constituent monomer units of polymers falling in the same subheading shall be taken together. Only the constituent comonomer units of the polymers in the series under consideration are to be compared.

 (2) Chemically modified polymers are to be classified in the subheading appropriate to the unmodified polymer.

Polymer blends are to be classified in the same subheading as polymers of the same monomer units in the same proportions.

 2. For the purposes of 3920.43.00, “plasticisers” includes secondary plasticisers.

Additional Notes. 

 1. In this Chapter, addition products of polyols with isocyanates, whether or not containing unreacted hydroxyl or isocyanate groups, are to be classified within 3909.50.

 2. In 3909.50.10, “polyols” means polyhydroxy compounds containing 2 or more hydroxyl groups per molecule.

Chapter 40Rubber and articles thereof

Notes. 

 1. Except where the context otherwise requires, throughout this Schedule “rubber” means the following products, whether or not vulcanised or hard: natural rubber, balata, guttapercha, guayule, chicle and similar natural gums, synthetic rubber, factice derived from oils, and such substances reclaimed.

 2. This Chapter does not cover:

 (a) Goods of Section XI (textiles and textile articles);

 (b) Footwear or parts thereof of Chapter 64;

 (c) Headgear or parts thereof (including bathing caps) of Chapter 65;

 (d) Mechanical or electrical appliances or parts thereof of Section XVI (including electrical goods of all kinds), of hard rubber;

 (e) Articles of Chapter 90, 92, 94 or 96; or

 (f) Articles of Chapter 95 (other than sports gloves, mittens and mitts and articles of 4011 to 4013).

 3. In 4001 to 4003.00.00 and 4005, “primary forms” applies only to the following forms:

 (a) Liquids and pastes (including latex, whether or not prevulcanised, and other dispersions and solutions);

 (b) Blocks of irregular shape, lumps, bales, powders, granules, crumbs and similar bulk forms.

 4. In Note 1 to this Chapter and in 4002, “synthetic rubber” applies to:

 (a) Unsaturated synthetic substances which can be irreversibly transformed by vulcanisation with sulphur into nonthermoplastic substances which, at a temperature between 18 °C and 29 °C, will not break on being extended to three times their original length and will return, after being extended to twice their original length, within a period of five minutes, to a length not greater than one and a half times their original length. For the purposes of this test, substances necessary for the crosslinking, such as vulcanising activators or accelerators, may be added; the presence of substances as provided for by Note 5(B)(ii) and (iii) is also permitted. However, the presence of any substances not necessary for the crosslinking, such as extenders, plasticisers and fillers, is not permitted;

 (b) Thioplasts (TM); and

 (c) Natural rubber modified by grafting or mixing with plastics, depolymerised natural rubber, mixtures of unsaturated synthetic substances with saturated synthetic high polymers provided that all the abovementioned products comply with the requirements concerning vulcanisation, elongation and recovery in (a) above.

5. (A) 4001 and 4002 do not apply to any rubber or mixture of rubbers which has been compounded, before or after coagulation, with:

 (i) vulcanising agents, accelerators, retarders or activators (other than those added for the preparation of prevulcanised rubber latex);

 (ii) pigments or other colouring matter, other than those added solely for the purpose of identification;

 (iii) plasticisers or extenders (except mineral oil in the case of oilextended rubber), fillers, reinforcing agents, organic solvents or any other substances, except those permitted under (B);

 (B) The presence of the following substances in any rubber or mixture of rubbers shall not affect its classification in 4001 or 4002, as the case may be, provided that such rubber or mixture of rubbers retains its essential character as a raw material:

 (i) emulsifiers or antitack agents;

 (ii) small amounts of breakdown products of emulsifiers;

 (iii) very small amounts of the following: heatsensitive agents (generally for obtaining thermosensitive rubber latexes), cationic surfaceactive agents (generally for obtaining electropositive rubber latexes), antioxidants, coagulants, crumbling agents, freezeresisting agents, peptisers, preservatives, stabilisers, viscositycontrol agents, or similar specialpurpose additives.

 6. For the purposes of 4004.00.00, “waste, parings and scrap” means rubber waste, parings and scrap from the manufacture or working of rubber and rubber goods definitely not usable as such because of cuttingup, wear or other reasons.

 7. Thread wholly of vulcanised rubber, of which any crosssectional dimension exceeds 5 mm, is to be classified as strip, rods or profile shapes, of 4008.

 8. 4010 includes conveyor or transmission belts or belting of textile fabric impregnated, coated, covered or laminated with rubber or made from textile yarn or cord impregnated, coated, covered or sheathed with rubber.

 9. In 4001, 4002, 4003.00.00, 4005 and 4008, “plates”, “sheets” and “strip” apply only to plates, sheets and strip and to blocks of regular geometric shape, uncut or simply cut to rectangular (including square) shape, whether or not having the character of articles and whether or not printed or otherwise surfaceworked, but not otherwise cut to shape or further worked.

In 4008 “rods” and “profile shapes” apply only to such products, whether or not cut to length or surfaceworked but not otherwise worked.

 (a) Unbleached yarn

  Yarn which:

 (i) has the natural colour of its constituent fibres and has not been bleached, dyed (whether or not in the mass) or printed; or

 (ii) is of indeterminate colour (“grey yarn”), manufactured from garnetted stock.

  Such yarn may have been treated with a colourless dressing or fugitive dye (which disappears after simple washing with soap) and, in the case of manmade fibres, treated in the mass with delustring agents (for example, titanium dioxide).

 (b) Bleached yarn

  Yarn which:

 (i) has undergone a bleaching process, is made of bleached fibres or, unless the context otherwise requires, has been dyed white (whether or not in the mass) or treated with a white dressing;

 (ii) consists of a mixture of unbleached and bleached fibres; or

 (iii) is multiple (folded) or cabled and consists of unbleached and bleached yarns.

 (c) Coloured (dyed or printed) yarn

  Yarn which:

 (i) is dyed (whether or not in the mass) other than white or in a fugitive colour, or printed, or made from dyed or printed fibres;

 (ii) consists of a mixture of dyed fibres of different colours or of a mixture of unbleached or bleached fibres with coloured fibres (marl or mixture yarns), or is printed in one or more colours at intervals to give the impression of dots;

 (iii) is obtained from slivers or rovings which have been printed; or

 (iv) is multiple (folded) or cabled and consists of unbleached or bleached yarn and coloured yarn.

  The above definitions also apply, mutatis mutandis, to monofilament and to strip or the like of Chapter 54.

 (d) Unbleached woven fabric

  Woven fabric made from unbleached yarn and which has not been bleached, dyed or printed. Such fabric may have been treated with a colourless dressing or a fugitive dye.

 (e) Bleached woven fabric

  Woven fabric which:

 (i) has been bleached or, unless the context otherwise requires, dyed white or treated with a white dressing, in the piece;

 (ii) consists of bleached yarn; or

  Woven fabric which:

 (i) is dyed a single uniform colour other than white (unless the context otherwise requires) or has been treated with a coloured finish other than white (unless the context otherwise requires), in the piece; or

 (ii) consists of coloured yarn of a single uniform colour.

 (g) Woven fabric of yarns of different colours

  Woven fabric (other than printed woven fabric) which:

 (i) consists of yarns of different colours or yarns of different shades of the same colour (other than the natural colour of the constituent fibres);

 (ii) consists of unbleached or bleached yarn and coloured yarn; or

 (iii) consists of marl or mixture yarns.

  (In all cases, the yarn used in selvedges and piece ends is not taken into consideration.)

 (h) Printed woven fabric

  Woven fabric which has been printed in the piece, whether or not made from yarns of different colours.

  (The following are also regarded as printed woven fabrics: woven fabrics bearing designs made, for example, with a brush or spray gun, by means of transfer paper, by flocking or by the batik process.)

  The definitions at (d) to (h) above apply, mutatis mutandis, to knitted or crocheted fabrics.

 (ij) Plain weave

  A fabric construction in which each yarn of the weft passes alternately over and under successive yarns of the warp and each yarn of the warp passes alternately over and under successive yarns of the weft.

2. (A) Products of Chapters 56 to 63 containing two or more textile materials are to be regarded as consisting wholly of that textile material which would be selected under Note 2 to this Section for the classification of a product of Chapters 50 to 55 consisting of the same textile materials.

 (B) For the application of this rule:

 (a) where appropriate, only the part which determines the classification under Interpretation Rule 3 shall be taken into account;

 (b) in the case of textile products consisting of a ground fabric and a pile or looped surface no account shall be taken of the ground fabric;

 (c) in the case of embroidery of 5810 and goods thereof, only the ground fabric shall be taken into account. However, embroidery without visible ground, and goods thereof, shall be classified with reference to the embroidering threads alone.

Additional Notes. 

 1. For the purposes of this Section, fabric shall be taken to be printed if, and only if, the fabric:

 (a) has been printed in a manner that produces over the whole of the fabric a designed or patterned effect employing contrasts in colours;

 (b) complies with the following fastness standards determined by the test methods published by Standards Australia:

 (i) Australian Standard AS2001.4.15 Test A with a minimum standard for change of shade of 34; and

 (ii) Australian Standard AS2001.4.21 using MBTF lamp with a minimum standard of 34;

and

 (c) has a colour contrast of not less than that shown by Grade 2 on the Standard Textile Grey Scale for assessing change in colour when viewed at a distance of 2 m in accordance with the viewing conditions as set out in Australian Standard AS2001.4.1.

 2. Notwithstanding Note 1, fabrics shall not be taken to be printed by reason only of:

 (a) the printing of labels or the printing with words, letters, figures or designs suitable for cutting up into labels;

 (c) the printing with markings of any kind solely or principally at or near one or both selvedges;

 (d) the printing with markings of any kind, which, excluding unprinted areas within such markings, do not exceed 10% of the total area of the fabric;

 (e) the printing in an uninterrupted single colour in a manner so that such printing exceeds 70% of the total area of the fabric; or

 (f) the printing solely in white or a shade of white so that it closely resembles the natural colour of the fabric in its grey state.

 3. For the purposes of 6113.00.20, 6210.40.10 and 6210.50.10, “antiradiation suits, anticontamination suits, and similar protective garments” means full body, vapour barrier suits for protection against toxic gases, chemicals or thermal hazards.

Chapter 54Manmade filaments; strip and the like of manmade textile materials

Notes. 

 1. Throughout this Schedule, “manmade fibres” means staple fibres and filaments of organic polymers produced by manufacturing processes, either:

 (a) By polymerisation of organic monomers to produce polymers such as polyamides, polyesters, polyolefins or polyurethanes, or by chemical modification of polymers produced by this process (for example, poly(vinyl alcohol) prepared by the hydrolysis of poly(vinyl acetate)); or

 (b) By dissolution or chemical treatment of natural organic polymers (for example, cellulose) to produce polymers such as cuprammonium rayon (cupro) or viscose rayon, or by chemical modification of natural organic polymers (for example, cellulose, casein and other proteins, or alginic acid), to produce polymers such as cellulose acetate or alginates.

“Synthetic” and “artificial”, used in relation to fibres, mean: synthetic: fibres as defined at (a); artificial: fibres as defined at (b). Strip and the like of 5404 or 5405.00.00 are not considered to be manmade fibres.

“Manmade”, “synthetic” and “artificial” shall have the same meanings when used in relation to “textile materials”.

 2. 5402 and 5403 do not apply to synthetic or artificial filament tow of Chapter 55.

Chapter 56Wadding, felt and nonwovens; special yarns; twine, cordage, ropes and cables and articles thereof

Notes. 

 1. This Chapter does not cover:

 (a) Wadding, felt or nonwovens, impregnated, coated or covered with substances or preparations (for example, perfumes or cosmetics of Chapter 33, soaps or detergents of 3401, polishes, creams or similar preparations of 3405, fabric softeners of 3809) where the textile material is present merely as a carrying medium;

 (b) Textile products of 5811.00.00;

 (c) Natural or artificial abrasive powder or grain, on a backing of felt or nonwovens (6805);

 (d) Agglomerated or reconstituted mica, on a backing of felt or nonwovens (6814);

 (e) Metal foil on a backing of felt or nonwovens (generally Section XIV or XV); or

 (f) Sanitary towels (pads) and tampons, napkins and napkin liners for babies and similar articles of 9619.

 2. “Felt” includes needleloom felt and fabrics consisting of a web of textile fibres the cohesion of which has been enhanced by a stitchbonding process using fibres from the web itself.

 3. 5602 and 5603 cover respectively felt and nonwovens, impregnated, coated, covered or laminated with plastics or rubber whatever the nature of these materials (compact or cellular).

5603 also includes nonwovens in which plastics or rubber forms the bonding substance.

5602 and 5603 do not, however, cover:

 (a) Felt impregnated, coated, covered or laminated with plastics or rubber, containing 50% or less by weight of textile material or felt completely embedded in plastics or rubber (Chapter 39 or 40);

 (b) Nonwovens, either completely embedded in plastics or rubber, or entirely coated or covered on both sides with such materials, provided that such coating or covering can be seen with the naked eye with no account being taken of any resulting change of colour (Chapter 39 or 40); or

 (c) Plates, sheets or strip of cellular plastics or cellular rubber combined with felt or nonwovens, where the textile material is present merely for reinforcing purposes (Chapter 39 or 40).

 4. 5604 does not cover textile yarn, or strip or the like of 5404 or 5405.00.00, in which the impregnation, coating or covering cannot be seen with the naked eye (usually Chapters 50 to 55); for the purpose of this provision, no account should be taken of any resulting change of colour.

Chapter 59Impregnated, coated, covered or laminated textile fabrics; textile articles of a kind suitable for industrial use

Notes. 

 1. Except where the context otherwise requires, for the purposes of this Chapter “textile fabrics” applies only to the woven fabrics of Chapters 50 to 55 and 5803 and 5806, the braids and ornamental trimmings in the piece of 5808 and the knitted or crocheted fabrics of 6002 to 6006.

 2. 5903 applies to:

 (a) Textile fabrics, impregnated, coated, covered or laminated with plastics, whatever the weight per square metre and whatever the nature of the plastic material (compact or cellular), other than:

 (1) Fabrics in which the impregnation, coating or covering cannot be seen with the naked eye (usually Chapters 50 to 55, 58 or 60); for the purpose of this provision, no account should be taken of any resulting change of colour;

 (2) Products which cannot, without fracturing, be bent manually around a cylinder of a diameter of 7 mm, at a temperature between 15 C and 30 C (usually Chapter 39);

 (3) Products in which the textile fabric is either completely embedded in plastics or entirely coated or covered on both sides with such material, provided that such coating or covering can be seen with the naked eye with no account being taken of any resulting change of colour (Chapter 39);

 (4) Fabrics partially coated or partially covered with plastics and bearing designs resulting from these treatments (usually Chapters 50 to 55, 58 or 60);

This heading does not, however, apply to wall coverings consisting of textile flock or dust fixed directly on a backing of paper (4814) or on a textile backing (generally 5907.00.00).

 4. For the purposes of 5906, “rubberised textile fabrics” means:

 (b) Fabrics made from yarn, strip or the like, impregnated, coated, covered or sheathed with rubber, of 5604;

 (c) Fabrics composed of parallel textile yarns agglomerated with rubber, irrespective of their weight per square metre.

This heading does not, however, apply to plates, sheets or strip of cellular rubber, combined with textile fabric, where the textile fabric is present merely for reinforcing purposes (Chapter 40), or textile products of 5811.00.00.

 5. 5907.00.00 does not apply to:

 (a) Fabrics in which the impregnation, coating or covering cannot be seen with the naked eye (usually Chapters 50 to 55, 58 or 60); for the purpose of this provision, no account should be taken of any resulting change of colour;

 (b) Fabrics painted with designs (other than painted canvas being theatrical scenery, studio backcloths or the like);

 (c) Fabrics partially covered with flock, dust, powdered cork or the like and bearing designs resulting from these treatments; however, imitation pile fabrics remain classified in this heading;

 (d) Fabrics finished with normal dressings having a basis of amylaceous or similar substances;

 (e) Wood veneered on a backing of textile fabrics (4408);
