    Article 3

    (Proofs of Origin and administrative cooperation)

    1.   Proofs of origin properly issued by either Lebanon or a new Member State in the framework of preferential agreements or autonomous arrangements applied between them shall be accepted in the respective countries under this Protocol, provided that:

    (a)

    the acquisition of such origin confers preferential tariff treatment on the basis of the preferential tariff measures contained in this Euro-Mediterranean Agreement or in the Union System of Generalised Preferences;

    (b)

    the proof of origin and the transport documents were issued no later than the day before the date of accession;

    (c)

    the proof of origin is submitted to the customs authorities within the period of four months from the date of accession.

    Where goods were declared for importation in either Lebanon or a new Member State, prior to the date of accession, under preferential agreements or autonomous arrangements applied between Lebanon and that new Member State at that time, proof of origin issued retrospectively under those agreements or arrangements may also be accepted, provided that it is submitted to the customs authorities within the period of four months from the date of accession.

    2.   Lebanon and the new Member States are authorised to retain the authorisations with which the status of ‘approved exporters’ has been granted in the framework of preferential agreements or autonomous arrangements applied between them, provided that:

    (a)

    such a provision is also provided for in the agreement concluded between Lebanon and the Union prior to the date of accession; and

    (b)

    the approved exporter applies the rules of origin in force under that agreement.

    These authorisations shall be replaced no later than one year after the date of accession, by new authorisations issued under the terms of the Agreement.

    3.   Requests for subsequent verification of proof of origin issued under the preferential agreements or autonomous arrangements referred to in paragraphs 1 and 2 can be presented by the competent customs authorities of either Lebanon or the new Member States and shall be accepted by those authorities for a period of three years after issue of the proof of origin concerned.

    Article 4

    (Goods in transit)

    1.   The provisions of the Euro-Mediterranean Agreement may be applied to goods exported either from Lebanon to one of the new Member States or from one of the new Member States to Lebanon which comply with the provisions of Protocol 4 and, on the date of accession, are either en route or in temporary storage, in a customs warehouse or in a free zone in Lebanon or in that new Member State.

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

    GENERAL AND FINAL PROVISIONS
