  RECTIFICATIONS AND MODI FICATIONS OF SCHEDULES 
SCHEDULE XXI – INDONESIA 
 
The following communication, dated 30 June 2016, is being circulated at the request of the 
delegation of Indonesia.  
_______________ 
 Pursuant to the procedures for modification and rectification of schedules of tariff concessions contained in the Decision of 26 March 1980 (BIS D 27S/25), Indonesia hereby communicates draft 
changes to correct technical errors and simplify the complexity of the information contained in 
Schedule XXI, which resulted from the transposition to HS96
1.    
 
In the course of verifying the Harmonized Syst em 2002 (HS2002) transposition files prepared by 
the Secretariat, Indonesia noted some inconsistencies between its Uruguay Round Schedule and its HS1996 certified schedule (WT/Let/318). Indonesia received assistance from the Secretariat in 
preparing this rectification which aims at:  
 (i)  simplifying HS96 subheadings 7211.14 and 7211.19 so as to regroup all unbound parts 
under these codes;  
 
(ii) revising product descriptions for the unbound part of tariff lines 8407.31.300, 8407.31.900 
and 8408.20.000; and  
 
(iii)  removing the "ex" flag and revising product descriptions for tariff lines 8528.12.000, 
8528.13.000 and 8528.30.000. 
 
Detailed explanatory notes are provided in Attachme nt 1 and the draft rectification is contained in 
Attachment 2
2.  Indonesia would like to note that these corrections do not alter the scope of its 
concessions. 
 
_______________ 
 
If no objection is notified to the Secretariat within three months from the date of this document, 
the rectifications and modifications to Schedule XXI  – Indonesia- will be deemed to be approved 
and will be formally certified.

(i) Simplifying HS96 subheadings 7211.14 and 7211.19 so as to regroup all unbound parts under these codes 
 
 Indonesia's concessions in Part I, Section II (Other Products) are presented in the UR Schedule with a ceiling binding of 40%,  Pre-UR concessions 
and a list of exclusions (i.e. unbound tariff lines).  As a resu lt of changes that resulted from the introduction of the 1996 v ersion of the Harmonized 
System Nomenclature (HS96), a simplification is required to clarify the bound and unbound parts of tariff lines under 7211.14 a nd 7211.19.  HS96 
subheading 7211.14  was transposed from HS92 tariff subheadings 7211.12 and 7211.22.   HS96 subheading 7211.19 was transposed f rom HS92 
tariff subheadings 7211.19 and 7211.29. Indonesia would, therefor e, like to present the following simplification for the subhea dings 7211.14 and 
7211.19 in WT/Let/318:

(ii) Revising product descriptions for the unbound pa rt of tariff lines 8407.31.300, 8407.31.900 and 8408.20.000  
 
Indonesia's concessions in Part I, Section II (Other Products) ar e presented in the UR Schedule with a ceiling binding of 40%, Pre-UR concessions 
and a list of exclusions (i.e. unbound tariff lines).  As a result  of changes that resulted from the introduction of HS1996, th e product descriptions in 
WT/Let/318 for ex 8407.31.300 and ex 8407.31.900 erroneously referred to  "in CKD condition" for the unbound part while this was  not the case in 
the UR list of exclusions.  Indonesia would, therefore, like to make the following change to clar ify which part of the tariff l ine is unbound:

- 5 - Similarly, the description for tariff line 8408.20.000 in WT/Let/318 needs to be revised.  The tariff line code was not affecte d by the HS96 
transposition but it was erroneously included in WT/Let/318. The description of "Aircraft engines" with a bound rate of 10% cor responds to 
8407.10.000 and not to 8408.20.000. The proper description for 8408. 20.000 is "Engines of a kind used for the propulsion of veh icles of Chapter 
87". The exception to the ceiling binding relates to "Engines of a kind used for the propulsion of vehicles of Chapter 87 other  than CKD". So, the 
residual part should be bound at 40%. Indonesia would, theref ore, like to make the following changes for the tariff line 8408.2 0.000 in WT/Let/318:

(iii) Removing "ex" and revising product descriptions for tariff lin es 8528.12.000, 8528. 13.000 and 8528.30.000 
 Indonesia's concessions in Part I, Section II (Other Products) ar e presented in the UR Schedule with a ceiling binding of 40%, Pre-UR concessions 
and a list of exclusions (i.e. unbound tariff lines).  As a resu lt of changes that resulted fr om the introduction of HS1996, a technical error was 
included in WT/Let/318 regarding the binding status for tari ff lines 8528.12.000, 8528.13.000, 8528.30.000 by erroneously using  the suffix "ex". 
HS1996 subheadings 8528.12, 8528.13, and 8528.30 were transposed from HS92 tariff subheadings 8528.10 and 8528.20 in Indonesia' s UR 
Schedule. To correctly reflect the concessions in HS96 transposition, the "ex" should be removed, as these tariff lines are ful ly unbound according 
to the list of exclusions in the UR list.  In addition, the pr oduct description for these lines should be revised to reflect th e standard HS96 product 
description.  Indonesia would, therefore, like to make th e following changes for tariff lines 8528.12.000, 8528.13.000 and 8528 .30.000 in 
WT/Let/318:
