Details

This chapter and its product specific rules annex contain provisions related to the rules of origin for goods. These stipulate how much of a product must originate in the UK to qualify for the lower tariff when exported to Australia and vice versa.

It reflects modern production processes and global value chains and minimises red tape for businesses ensuring administrative processes are clear, straightforward and low cost. 

This ensures that most UK car exports should be eligible for preferential tariffs without manufacturers needing to significantly change their supply chains.

An accessible version of this document is being created and will be available soon.
