These changes will impact export statistical codes from the Australian Harmonized Export Commodity Classification (AHECC) (cat. no. 1233.0) and import statistical codes from the Combined Australian Customs Tariff Nomenclature and Statistical Classification. The ABS has been reviewing these impacts and is developing new AHECC and Tariff structures.
