On 5 June 2009, the Federal Administration for Public Revenue of Argentina (i.e. AFIP by its Spanish acronym) adopted External Notice 49/2009 decreasing the reference prices set on imports of new tyres classified under tariffs subheadings NCM 4011.10.00, 4011.20.90, 4011.61.00, 4011.92.10 and 4011.92.90.

The new reference prices were decreased from a FOB value ranging between USD 15.60 and USD 820.80 per unit to a FOB valuer ranging between USD 13.00 and USD 565.00 per unit depending on the characteristics of the products. 

The new legislation affected the following jurisdictions: the Republic of Korea, Democratic People's Republic of Korea, China, Chinese Taipei, Philippines, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Pakistan, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam.

This measure applied to imports taking place as of 6 June 2009.
