Currently, ICRs requesting write off for goods with a value for duty between NZD $400 to $1000 requires a full 11 digit tariff code, as per the Working Tariff Document of New Zealand.
The amendment will relax this requirement to a 6 digit tariff code, to align with the Harmonised System maintained by the World Customs Organization.
These changes will come into effect on Trade Single Window (TSW) on 16 October 2023.
