Amendment to Australian Customs Notice No. 2024/02 Indexation of customs duty rates on excise-equivalent goods on 5 February 2024

Friday, February 2, 2024

The Australian Border Force (ABF) have issued an amendment to ACN 2024/02 which was issued on 31 January 2024 via our previous member update

The ABF have acknowledged an error was made in Australian Customs Notice (ACN) No. 2024/02 that was circulated on Wednesday, 31 January 2024, with the new excise equivalent customs duty rate for subheadings 2203.00.64 and 2206.00.73 listed in Table 1 on page 3 being incorrect.

The correct rate for these subheadings is $51.63/litre of alcohol, calculated on that alcohol content by which the percentage by volume of alcohol of the goods exceeds 1.15.

The Australian Border Force (ABF) have since published an updated ACN 2024/02 providing the new customs duty rates for certain excise-equivalent goods, including spirits, beers and fuel products, operative from 5 February 2024.
