    3.   Requests for subsequent verification of proof of origin issued under the preferential agreements or autonomous arrangements referred to in paragraph 1 shall be accepted by the competent customs authorities of either the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia or Croatia for a period of three years after the issue of the proof of origin concerned and may be made by those authorities for a period of three years after acceptance of the proof of origin submitted to those authorities in support of an import declaration.

    1.   The provisions of the SAA may be applied to goods exported from either the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia to Croatia or from Croatia to the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, which comply with the provisions of Protocol 4 to the SAA and that on the date of accession of Croatia are either en route or in temporary storage, in a customs warehouse or in a free zone in the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia or in Croatia.

    2.   Preferential treatment may be granted in such cases, subject to the submission to the customs authorities of the importing country, within four months from the date of accession of Croatia, of a proof of origin issued retrospectively by the customs authorities of the exporting country.

    Article 10

    Quotas in 2013

    For the year 2013, the volumes of the new tariff quotas and the increases of the volumes of existing tariff quotas shall be calculated as a pro rata of the basic volumes, taking into account the part of the period elapsed before 1 July 2013.
