COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2020/761
of 17 December 2019
laying down rules for the application of Regulations (EU) No 1306/2013, (EU) No 1308/2013 and (EU) No 510/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards the management system of tariff quotas with licences
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 December 2013 establishing a common organisation of the markets in agricultural products and repealing Council Regulations (EEC) No 922/72, (EEC) No 234/79, (EC) No 1037/2001 and (EC) No 1234/2007 (1), and in particular Article 187 and Article 223(3) thereof,
Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 1306/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 December 2013 on the financing, management and monitoring of the common agricultural policy and repealing Council Regulations (EEC) No 352/78, (EC) No 165/94, (EC) No 2799/98, (EC) No 814/2000, (EC) No 1290/2005 and (EC) No 485/2008 (2), and in particular Article 66(4) thereof,
Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 510/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 April 2014 laying down the trade arrangements applicable to certain goods resulting from the processing of agricultural products and repealing Council Regulations (EC) No 1216/2009 and (EC) No 614/2009 (3) and in particular points (a) to (d) of Article 9 and point (a) of Article 16(1) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) |
Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 lays down rules regarding tariff quota management and special treatment of imports by third countries. It also empowers the Commission to adopt delegated and implementing acts in that respect. In order to ensure the smooth functioning of the management of tariff quotas in the new legal framework, certain rules have to be adopted by means of such acts. Those acts should replace a certain number of acts laying down common rules or specific sectoral rules, based on acts adopted pursuant to Article 43(2) or Article 207 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (‘TFEU’), which are repealed by Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/760 (4) |
(2) |
The Union has undertaken in international agreements and in acts adopted pursuant to Article 43(2) and Article 207 TFEU to open tariff quotas for certain agricultural products and in some cases to administer those quotas. In some cases imports of products under such tariff quotas are subject to an import licence obligation. Commission Regulations and Commission Implementing Regulations which have opened those quotas and provide for specific rules are repealed by Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/760. It is appropriate to maintain those rules in this Regulation. |
(3) |
An annual tariff quota period of 12 consecutive months should be established for all the tariff quotas for agricultural and other products falling within the scope of this Regulation. In some cases, it is appropriate to provide for tariff quota sub-periods within the annual tariff quota period, particularly where this is provided for in an international agreement. |
(4) |
In order to guarantee a sound administration of tariff quotas, minimum or maximum quantities to be applied for under tariff quotas should be set out. |
(5) |
In order to simplify and improve the effectiveness and efficacy of the administration and control mechanisms, common conditions should be laid down for the administration of import tariff quotas subject to import licences. Those tariff quotas should be administered by allocation of licences in proportion to the overall quantities requested (hereinafter the ‘simultaneous examination method’). Rules should also be laid down on the submission of applications and... |
