Re:

Operative part of the judgment
In circumstances such as those in the main proceedings, where the declarations for the customs procedure for ‘release for free circulation’ were made before 27 September 2005, it is not possible to rely on the decision of 27 September 2005 of the Dispute Settlement Body of the World Trade Organisation (WTO), adopting a report by the WTO appellate body (WT/DS269/AB/R, WT/DS286/AB/R) and two reports by a special WTO group (WT/DS269/R and WT/DS286/R), as amended by the appellate body, neither in the context of interpretation of the additional note 7 to Chapter 2 of the combined nomenclature in Commission Regulation (EC) No 1810/2004 of 7 September 2004 amending 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, nor in the context of assessment of the validity of that additional note.
