Summary

Introduced with the Customs Tariff Amendment (Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership Implementation) Bill 2018 to implement Australia’s obligations under the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership, the bill amends the

Customs Act 1901
to: provide preferential rates of duty for certain Trans-Pacific Partnership originating goods; and impose certain obligations on exporters and producers of eligible goods to a party to the agreement for which a preferential rate of customs duty is claimed.

We acknowledge the traditional owners and custodians of country throughout Australia and acknowledge their continuing connection to land, waters and community. We pay our respects to the people, the cultures and the elders past, present and emerging.
