COMMISSION DELEGATED REGULATION (EU) 2016/654
of 26 February 2016
amending Council Regulation (EC) No 673/2005 establishing additional customs duties on imports of certain products originating in the United States of America
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 673/2005 of 25 April 2005 establishing additional customs duties on imports of certain products originating in the United States of America (1), and in particular Article 3 thereof,
Whereas:
|
(1) |
As a result of the United States' failure to bring the Continued Dumping and Subsidy Offset Act (CDSOA) in compliance with its obligations under the World Trade Organisation (WTO) agreements, Regulation (EC) No 673/2005 imposed a 15 % ad valorem additional customs duty on imports of certain products originating in the United States of America as from 1 May 2005. In conformity with the WTO authorisation to suspend the application of concessions to the United States, the Commission is to adjust the level of suspension annually to the level of nullification or impairment caused by the CDSOA to the European Union at that time. |
|
(2) |
The CDSOA disbursements for the most recent year for which data are available relate to the distribution of anti-dumping and countervailing duties collected during the fiscal year 2015 (1 October 2014 to 30 September 2015) as well as the additional distribution of anti-dumping and countervailing duties collected during the fiscal years 2011 and 2014. On the basis of the data published by the United States' Customs and Border Protection, the level of nullification or impairment caused to the Union is calculated at USD 887 696. |
|
(3) |
The level of nullification or impairment and consequently of suspension has decreased. However, the level of suspension cannot be adjusted to the level of nullification or impairment by adding or removing products from the list in Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 673/2005. As a consequence, in accordance with Article 3(1)(e) of Regulation (EC) No 673/2005, the Commission should keep the list of products in Annex I to that Regulation unchanged and amend the rate of the additional duty in order to adjust the level of suspension to the level of nullification or impairment. The four products listed in Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 673/2005 should therefore be maintained on the list and the rate of additional import duty should be amended and set at 0,45 %. |
|
(4) |
The effect of a 0,45 % ad valorem additional import duty on imports from the United States of the products in Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 673/2005 represents, over 1 year, a value of trade that does not exceed USD 887 696. |
|
(5) |
To make sure that there are no delays in the application of the amended rate of additional import duty, this Regulation should enter into force on the day of its publication. |
|
(6) |
Regulation (EC) No 673/2005 should therefore be amended accordingly, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
Article 2 of Regulation (EC) No 673/2005 is replaced by the following:
‘Article 2
An ad valorem duty of 0,45 % additional to the customs duty applicable under Council Regulation (EEC) No 2913/92 (*1) shall be imposed on the products originating in the United States of America listed in Annex I to this Regulation.
Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
It shall apply from 1 May 2016.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
Done at Brussels, 26 February 2016.
For the Commission
The President
Jean-Claude JUNCKER
(1) OJ L 110, 30.4.2005, p. 1; as amended by Regulation (EU) No 38/2014 of the European Parliament and the Council (OJ L 18, 21.1.2014, p. 52).
ANNEX
‘ANNEX I
The products on which additional duties are to apply are identified by their eight-digit CN codes. The description of products classified under these codes can be found in Annex I to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 of 23 July 1987 on the tariff and statistical nomenclature and on the Common Customs Tariff (1) as amended by Commission Regulation (EC) No 1810/2004 (2).
