COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2020/1988
of 11 November 2020
laying down rules for the application of Regulations (EU) No 1308/2013 and (EU) No 510/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards the administration of import tariff quotas in accordance with the ‘first come, first served’ principle
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 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 (2), and in particular 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pursuant to Article 43(2) or Article 207 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (‘TFEU’), which are repealed by Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/1987 (3). |
(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 according to the ‘first come, first served’ principle. Commission Regulations and Commission Implementing Regulations which have opened those quotas and provide for specific rules are repealed by Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/1987 It is appropriate to maintain those rules, at the same time replacing outdated provisions and streamlining the administration of the tariff quotas. |
(3) |
In the interest of administrative simplification and of transparency, it is appropriate to lay down all the rules for the administration of those tariff quotas in a single Regulation. |
(4) |
Commission Regulations (EC) No 2535/2001 (4) and (EC) No 442/2009 (5), and Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1273/2011 (6) opened and managed certain tariff quotas managed by applying the simultaneous examination method of import licence applications and other tariff quotas managed under the ‘first come, first served’ principle. Those regulations were repealed by Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/760 (7) that established new rules for the administration of import and export tariff quotas subject to licences. To ensure that also the tariff quotas managed under the ‘first come, first served’ principle in accordance with the repealed Regulations remain operable, it is necessary to provide for management rules for those tariff quotas. |

Commission Regulations (EC) No 2535/2001, (EC) No 2305/2003 (8), (EC) No 1964/2006 (9), (EC) No 539/2007 (10), (EC) No 616/2007 (11), (EC) No 1384/2007 (12), (EC) No 1385/2007 (13), (EC) No 412/2008 (14), (EC) No 748/2008 (15), and Commission Implementing Regulations (EU) No 1273/2011, (EU) No 480/2012 (16) and (EU) No 1223/2012 (17) providing for the administration of certain import tariff... |
