Sales Tax Determination STD 98/3 is withdrawn with effect from today.
1. Sales Tax Determination STD 98/3 explains the meaning of the term motion picture film for the purposes of items 25 and 25 in the First Schedule to the Sales Tax (Exemptions and Classifications) Act 1992. It also examines whether freelance contractors (for example, cinematographers and sound recordists) may claim an exemption under those items for goods they use, and whether the exemption is available for goods used to edit or process a work print copy of the cinematograph film that has been transferred onto a different medium.
2. The goods and services tax came into effect from 1 July 2000. Sales tax ceased to apply to transactions from that date.
3. This Determination is no longer current and does not apply to transactions occurring on or after 1 July 2000.
