CHAPTER V

EXTENSION OF RULES

Article 36

Financial contributions

Where a Member State decides, pursuant to Article 165 of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013, that operators who do not belong to producer organisations, associations of producer organisations or interbranch organisations, but in respect of whom rules are made binding, shall pay a financial contribution, the Member State shall forward to the Commission the information needed to assess compliance with the conditions laid down in that Article. Such information shall include the basis on which the contribution is calculated, the unit amount thereof, the activities covered and their associated costs.

Article 37

Extensions beyond one year

Where it is decided to apply an extension of rules for a period exceeding one year, the Member States shall verify, in respect of each year, whether the conditions regarding representativeness laid down in Article 164(3) of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 have continued to be met throughout the period of application of the extension.

If Member States find that the conditions are no longer met, they shall repeal the extension with effect from the beginning of the following year.

Member States shall inform the Commission without delay of any repeal. The Commission shall make such information publicly available by the appropriate means.

CHAPTER VI

ENTRY PRICE SYSTEM AND IMPORT DUTIES

Article 38

Standard import values

For each product and for the periods of application set out in Part A of Annex VII to Delegated Regulation (EU) 2017/891, the Commission shall fix each working day and for each origin, a standard import value equal to the weighted average of the representative prices referred to in Article 74 of that Regulation, less a standard amount of EUR 5/100 kg and the ad valorem customs duties.

Where a standard import value is established for the products and for the periods of application set out in Part A of Annex VII to Delegated Regulation (EU) 2017/891, in accordance with Articles 74 and 75 of that Regulation and this Article, the unit price as referred to in Article 142 of Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2447 ( 1 ) shall not apply. It shall be replaced by the standard import value referred to in paragraph 1.

Where no standard import value is in force for a product of a given origin, the weighted average of standard import values in force for that product shall apply.

During the periods of application set out in Part A of Annex VII to Delegated Regulation (EU) 2017/891, the standard import values shall remain applicable until they are changed. They shall cease to apply, however, where no average representative price has been notified to the Commission for two consecutive weeks.

Where, pursuant to the first subparagraph, no standard import value applies to a given product, the standard import value applicable to that product shall be equal to the last average standard import value.

By way of derogation from paragraph 1, where it has not been possible to calculate a standard import value, no standard import value shall be applicable from the first day of the periods of application set out in Part A of Annex VII to Delegated Regulation (EU) 2017/891.

The exchange rate applicable to the standard import value shall be the rate most recently published by the European Central Bank prior to the last day of the period for which prices are transmitted.

The standard import values expressed in euro shall be published by the Commission via TARIC ( 2 ).

CHAPTER VII

ADDITIONAL IMPORT DUTIES

Article 39

Levying of additional import duty

▼M1

An additional import duty as referred to in Article 182(1) of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 may be applied to the products and during the periods listed in Annex VII to this Regulation. That additional import duty shall apply if the quantity of any of the products put into free circulation for any of the periods of application set out in that Annex exceeds the trigger volume for that product unless the imports are unlikely to disturb the Union market, or the effects of the additional import duty would be disproportionate to the intended objective.

▼B

For each of the products listed in Annex VII and during the periods indicated in that Annex, Member States shall notify the Commission of details of the volumes put into free circulation using the method for the surveillance of preferential imports set out in Article 55 of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2447.

The additional import duty shall be levied on quantities put into free circulation after the date of application of that duty, provided that:

(a)

their customs value determined in accordance with Article 74 of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2017/891 entails the application of the highest specific duties applicable to imports of the origin in question; and

(b)

the import takes place during the period of application of the additional import duty.

Article 40

Amount of additional import duty

The additional import duty applied in accordance with Article 39 shall be equivalent to one third of the customs duty specified in the Common Customs Tariff for the product in question.

However, for products benefiting from an import tariff preference as to ad valorem duty, the additional import duty shall be equivalent to one third of the specific customs duty for the product in question where Article 39(2) applies.

Article 41

Exemptions from additional import duty

The following goods are exempt from the additional import duty:

(a)

goods imported under a tariff quota;

(b)

goods that left the country of origin before the decision to apply the additional import duty, and which are being transported under cover of a transport document valid from the place of loading in the country of origin to the place of unloading in the Union that was drawn up before application of the additional import duty.

Interested parties shall provide evidence to the satisfaction of the customs authorities that the requirements of paragraph 1(b) have been met.

Customs authorities may deem that goods left the country of origin before the date of application of the additional import duty if one of the following documents is provided for:

(a)

sea transport, the bill of loading showing that loading took place before that date;

(b)

rail transport, the waybill accepted by the rail authorities of the country of origin before that date;

(c)

road transport, the road carriage contract (CMR) or another transit document issued in the country of origin before that date, if the conditions laid down in bilateral or multilateral arrangements concluded in the context of Union transit or common transit are observed;

(d)

air transport, the air way bill showing that the airline accepted the goods before that date.

CHAPTER VIII

FINAL PROVISIONS

Article 42

Entry into force and application

This Regulation shall enter into force on the seventh day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
