AMENDMENTS AND ADJUSTMENTS
Explanatory notes to the tariff.
1. In paragraph 3 of the Explanatory Notes to the Rates of 91, in paragraph 9 of the Explanatory Notes to the Rates of 96, in paragraph 1 (4) to the Rates of 97, in paragraph 1 (3) to the Rates of 99, in paragraph 2 of the Explanatory Notes to the Rates of 100 and in paragraph 3 to the Rates of 100. 101 the words "177 or 'are deleted.
2. In paragraph 3 of the Explanatory Notes to the rate number 96, the words "177 a 'are deleted twice.
3. In paragraph 1 of General Explanatory Note 2 to the heading XXI, after the words "oil)," the word "bitumen" is inserted and after the word "fraction" of the word "distillates."
4. In paragraph 2 of General Explanatory Notes 2 to class XXI, the words "crude petrol 'are replaced by the words" petrol distillate'.
(5) Paragraphs 3 and 4 of General Explanatory Notes 2 to class XXI are amended and read as follows:
(3) The petrol distillate provides further treatment of both engine and technical petrol with a density of up to 810 degrees according to composition, if origin. The easiest of these is kerosene ether (gasolin). The largest part of petrol is consumed as motor gasoline. Technical gases include, for example, extraction, solvent, varnish, analytical, pharmaceuticals and mine lamp petrol (ligroin).
(4) The petroleum distillate provides kerosene (motor kerosene, light kerosene), densities ranging from approximately 810 degrees to 840 degrees and flash points always above 20 degrees C, then light gas oils. Gas oil and kerosene are different from gasoline with odour and greater density. Kerosene is waterbright or bright yellow, blue fluorescent.
6. Paragraph 6 of General Explanatory Notes 2 to class XXI is added as follows:
Hydrogenation is subjected to mineral oils heavier than gasoline, e.g. petroleum distillate.
7. In paragraph 1 of the General Explanatory Notes 3 to class XXI, in the first sentence, the word "tar 'is replaced by" low-temperature tar'.
8. In paragraph 3 of General Explanatory Note 3 to class XXI, the words "then other unheated or steatic tars, i.e. those produced by low-thermal carbonisation of coal of black or brown and finally generation tar 'are replaced by the words" then other low-heat (unheated) tars, i.e. those produced by low-temperature carbonisation of coal of black or brown; These include the tar of the generator. "
9. In paragraph 1 of General Explanatory Notes 4 to class XXI, the word "tar 'is replaced by" low thermal tar'.
10. In paragraph 3 of General Explanatory Notes 4 to class XXI, "not more than 790 degrees' is replaced by" not more than 810 degrees'.
(11) Paragraph 2 of General Explanatory Notes 7 to class XXI is replaced by the following:
(2) For the treatment of crude oil and brown coal tar preparations with a customs advantage, see Explanatory Notes 4 to the Rates Nos 177 and 178.
12. Paragraphs 4 to 7 of the Explanatory Notes to the rate number 175 are amended and read:
(4) Imported oil is intended only for further industrial processing into mineral oils.
(5) Oil containing the addition of other mineral oils, such as certain distillates, is to be dealt with at the rate of No 177, in case 178, depending on the nature of the mixture.
(6) Hydrogen-treated crude oil, base number 177.
(7) Oil is principally discussed at border customs offices. The customs authorities dealing with oil imported in ships shall determine by their expert forces whether it is oil. Other border customs offices shall occasionally request an opinion from the appropriate testing institute; However, such an assessment is always required for new types of this raw material with apparently different characteristics. If a customs office has doubts as to whether the mineral oil declared to be stuffed as oil is an oil rate of 175, it shall request an opinion from the appropriate testing institute. If it is found not to be oil, the customs authorities shall report immediately to the Central Customs Administration.
13. Explanatory notes 1 and 2 to the rates Nos 177 and 178 are amended and read:
1.
(1) Petrol, kerosene and gas oil are mainly used as motor fuels. Mineral oils with a sufficiently large viscosity (generally above 3 degrees E at 20 degrees C) are mainly used as lubricating oils. For these finished products, see General Explanatory Note 2 to the level XXI.
(2) Mixtures of mineral oils with animal or vegetable oils or fats are also used for lubricating purposes. Such additives have, for example, oil for machining (drilling and cutting), oil lubricating lubricated (for example, bearing lubricants), oils for sewing machines, bicycles and tower clocks, oils for preservation, cleaning etc. Mineral oils containing soap and such as, see Explanatory Note 3 (2).
(3) Oil distillates which have not been refined or re-distilled or rectified are partly described in General Explanatory Note 2 to the XXI-grade. It belongs to mineral oils of a semi-purified rate of 177, after the mineral oils of the lubricating rate of 178, and can be used without further processing either directly or after mixing with other suitable oil distillates. Some of them serve as oil preparations for the production of purified mineral oils. No. 177 includes hydrogenated oil.
2.
(1) As brown coal tar and shale oil, oils from all low-heat tar are discussed (see General Explanatory Note 3 to the XXI-grade). However, if these tar oils have virtually the same characteristics as petroleum mineral oils, they are - like synthetic mineral oils - considered to be mineral oils, for example brown coal tar gasoline as gasoline at the pol. 177 a).
(2) The distinction of low-temperature tar oils from high-temperature tar oils (in particular coal) containing benzene hydrocarbons, e.g. benzene, toluene, xylene, coumene, etc., see Explanatory Note 3 to the heading No 173.
14. In paragraph 2 of Explanatory Notes 3 to headings 177 and 178, the words "if the density of the mixture is less than or greater than 880 degrees, according to the rate of 177 or 178 'are replaced by the words" according to the rate of number 178'.
15. Paragraphs 8 and 9 of Explanatory Notes 3 to the Rates Nos 177 and 178 are amended and read:
(8) Mineral oils with lubricants which have a butter-based or more rigid consistency at 15 ° C, see the Explanatory Notes to the rate of 96. Lubricating fats and lubricants, containing added mineral oils, having a butter or rigid strength at 15 ° C, at a rate of 100 a).
(9) Vaseline oil medicinal, see explanatory note 1 (5) to the rate 630.
16. After paragraph 9 of Explanatory Notes 3 to the Rates Nos 177 and 178, the following paragraph 10 is inserted:
(10) Gas hydrocarbons, which are obtained mainly as by-products in the hydrogenation production of mineral oils (see General Explanatory Note 2 to the XXI tariff), liquefied, whether or not liquefied, at the 621 tariff.
17. The following Explanatory Notes 4 is inserted after Explanatory Notes 3 to headings 177 and 178:
4.
(1) According to the note on headings 177 to 179, the following preparations may be imported at rates 177 and 178: petrol and kerosene distillate, lubricating oil distillates and paraffin oil and gas oil distillate and brown coal tar oil for hydrotreatment. Imports of other semi-finished products of oil or of brown coal tar according to the rate note. 177 to 179 for industrial processing into mineral oils may be authorised by the central customs administration, which also determines the characteristics of individual semi-finished products. Customs authorities may subsequently check the type of semi-finished products by consulting the results of chemical testing carried out in factories.
(2) The central customs administration shall determine the directives which the industrial processing methods of crude oil semi-finished and brown coal tar accept as complying with the conditions for granting the preferential duty referred to in the tariff note 177 to 179 and lay down the necessary control conditions.
18. The following paragraphs 2 to 6 shall be inserted after the single paragraph of the explanatory notes to the rate No 179, first to be marked:
(2) The residues resulting from the refining of mineral oils with sulphuric acid and alkaline lye are sludge acids and naphthenic soaps. Kalic acids (acid resins, acid tar) are black viscosity masses, containing in addition to free sulphuric acid and asphaltic substances, sulphuric acids and torn mineral oil. They are in particular a source of sulphonic acids for the preparation of non-fatty detergents for the textile industry and such. Naphthene soaps are brown to black-brown viscosity fluids, composed essentially of sodium salts of naphthenic acids and sulphonaphthenic and mineral oil. These residues cannot be regarded as a mixture of mineral oils with soap (Explanatory Notes 3 to the Rates Nos 177 and 178). These soaps are a valuable raw material for the production of desiccates, machining oils, detergents and j.
(3) Fixed residues resulting from the distillation of mineral oils, of a number of 166 after the rate of 99.
(4) Naphthenic soaps, i.e. inorganic salts of naphthenic acids (diesel), of a number of 637; naphthenic acids, of a number of 622.
(5) Residual sulphuric acid from refining of mineral oils, see explanatory note 3 to the tariff number 598.
(6) On the import of residues of the distillation of mineral oils for further processing into mineral oils according to the rate note. The provisions on imports of other semi-finished products referred to in this note referred to in Explanatory Notes 4 to the rates Nos 177 and 178 apply mutatis mutandis.
19. Explanatory note 2 (2) to the rate number 438 shall be amended and read as follows:
(2) Ribbed ovens of non-malleable cast iron and cast iron radiators for central heating, at the rate of 481.
20. In explanatory note 2 (2) to the tariff heading 439, the words "Hollow bodies for heating railway wagons, etc., made of parts of pipes, welded at both ends, with openings, then 'are replaced by the words" Ribbed heating pipes of steel (of steel tubes with welded transverse ribs of steel sheet), as well as radiators for central heating, of steel tubes, fall in the heading number 483;';
21. In general explanatory note 1 (1) (d) to the rate of Nos 536-538, the words: "Rib pipes heating (radiators), whether or not of crude cast iron, heating cells of cast iron, whether or not crude, individual or assembled in a heater (stove), heating units for railway wagons and the like," shall be deleted.
22. Explanatory note 1 (2) to the rate number 552 is amended and read as follows:
(2) Tubes only cut to length are not included; However, if these pipes are already connected as parts of bicycle frames, but not yet as complete frames (see Explanatory Note 2 to the heading 550), or if they are connected by pipe couplings (by flying, riveting, welding) or hole holes, bent and below, they also belong as parts of bicycles. Number 552. These include steel pens for bicycle saddles and saddles for bicycles fitted with pens, supports or fasteners, as well as ball bearings for bicycles. Such ball bearings are conical, the balls lie between the bearing pan and the special conical pan (s), where the balls are either directly touching or held at a certain distance by a guide rim (s). Bearing balls not placed in ball bearings or earths belong, however, to the set number 483.
