DECISION No 1/2006 OF THE EC-EFTA JOINT COMMITTEE ON THE SIMPLIFICATION OF FORMALITIES IN TRADE IN GOODS

of 25 October 2006

amending the Convention on the simplification of formalities in trade in goods

(2006/919/EC)

THE JOINT COMMITTEE,

Having regard to the Convention of 20 May 1987 on simplification of formalities in trade in goods (1), hereinafter ‘the Convention’, and in particular Article 11(3) thereof,

Whereas:

 

(1)

The Community has revised the provisions on the use of the single administrative document (SAD) to reduce the volume of data required of economic operators and to codify a certain amount of that data. These amendments do not fundamentally affect the substance of the Convention. Some minor amendments should, however, be made to preserve the consistency of the legal arrangements governing the use of the SAD in Europe.

 

(2)

It also seems advisable to republish the SAD forms, which have been amended since they were first introduced.

 

(3)

Annexes I and II to the Convention should therefore be amended accordingly,

HAS DECIDED AS FOLLOWS:

Article 1

  • 1. 
    Annex I to the Convention is amended in accordance with Annex A.
  • 2. 
    Annex II to the Convention is amended in accordance with Annex B.

Article 2

  • 1. 
    This Decision shall enter into force on the day of its adoption.
  • 2. 
    It shall apply from 1 January 2007.

Done at Brussels, 25 October 2006

For the Joint Committee

The President

Mirosław F. ZIELIŃSKI
