title: Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 620/2011 of 24 June 2011 amending Annex I to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 on the tariff and statistical nomenclature and on the Common Customs Tariff

         COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) No 620/2011
   of 24 June 2011
   amending Annex I to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 on the tariff and statistical nomenclature and on the Common Customs Tariff
   THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
   Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
   Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 of 23 July 1987 on the tariff and statistical nomenclature and on the Common Customs Tariff (1), and in particular Article 9(1)(d) thereof,
   Whereas:

               (1)

               Further to a complaint brought in the World Trade Organisation (WTO) by certain countries, a WTO panel report adopted by the WTO Dispute Settlement Body on 21 September 2010 (2) concluded that the European Union had acted, inter alia, inconsistently with the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade 1994 (GATT 1994) by according tariff treatment less favourable than that provided in the tariff bindings with regard to certain information technology products made by the European Union pursuant to the Information Technology Agreement (ITA). Annex I to Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 should be amended in order to bring it into conformity with the international obligations of the European Union under the GATT 1994. The required amendments are in accordance with Council Decision 97/359/EC of 24 March 1997 concerning the elimination of duties on information technology products (3), which approved the ITA.

               (2)

               Following the WTO Panel Report, digital copying should not constitute photocopying under the GATT 1994 and copying speed should not be the sole classification criterion. Subheading 8443 31 of Annex I to Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 and the corresponding duty rate should therefore be amended accordingly.

               (3)

               The wording of subheading 8528 71 15 of the CN (previously 8528 71 13) should be amended in order to include set-top boxes which, besides the function of communication, may be capable of performing the additional functions of recording or reproducing, provided that, as a result, they do not lose the essential character of a set-top box which has a communication function.

               (4)

               This regulation should enter into force on 1 July 2011 at the end of the reasonable period of time agreed by the European Union with the complaining parties for the European Union to bring itself into conformity with its WTO obligations.

               (5)

               As recommendations in reports adopted by the WTO’s Dispute Settlement Body only have prospective effect, this regulation should not have retroactive effects nor provide interpretative guidance on a retroactive basis. Since it cannot operate to provide interpretative guidance for classification of goods which have been released for free circulation prior to 1 July 2011 it should not serve as a basis for the reimbursement of any duties paid prior to that date.

               (6)

               The Customs Code Committee has not issued an opinion within the time limit set by its Chairman,

         HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
   Article 1
   Part Two, Section XVI of Annex I to Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 is amended as set out in the Annex to this Regulation.
   Article 2
   This Regulation shall enter into force on 1 July 2011.
   It shall have neither retroactive effect nor provide interpretative guidance on a retroactive basis.

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

         COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) No 540/2013
   of 11 June 2013
   concerning the classification of certain goods in the Combined Nomenclature
   THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
   Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
   Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 of 23 July 1987 on the tariff and statistical nomenclature and on the Common Customs Tariff (1), and in particular Article 9(1)(a) thereof,
   Whereas:

               (1)

               In order to ensure uniform application of the Combined Nomenclature annexed to Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87, it is necessary to adopt measures concerning the classification of the goods referred to in the Annex to this Regulation.

               (2)

               Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 has laid down the general rules for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature. Those rules apply also to any other nomenclature which is wholly or partly based on it or which adds any additional subdivision to it and which is established by specific provisions of the Union, with a view to the application of tariff and other measures relating to trade in goods.

               (3)

               Pursuant to those general rules, the goods described in column (1) of the table set out in the Annex should be classified under the CN code indicated in column (2), by virtue of the reasons set out in column (3) of that table.

               (4)

               It is appropriate to provide that binding tariff information which has been issued by the customs authorities of Member States in respect of the classification of goods in the Combined Nomenclature but which is not in accordance with this Regulation can, for a period of three months, continue to be invoked by the holder, under Article 12(6) of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2913/92 of 12 October 1992 establishing the Community Customs Code (2).

               (5)

               The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Customs Code Committee,

         HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
   Article 1
   The goods described in column (1) of the table set out in the Annex shall be classified within the Combined Nomenclature under the CN code indicated in column (2) of that table.
   Article 2
   Binding tariff information issued by the customs authorities of Member States, which is not in accordance with this Regulation, can continue to be invoked for a period of three months under Article 12(6) of Regulation (EEC) No 2913/92.
   Article 3
   This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth 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.
      Done at Brussels, 11 June 2013.

            For the Commission, On behalf of the President,
         Algirdas ŠEMETA

            Member of the Commission

      ANNEX

                  Description of the goods

                  Classification
                  (CN code)

                  Reasons

                  (1)

                  (2)

                  (3)

                  A screw made of stainless steel, measuring approximately 2 cm.
                  The head of the screw comprises a recessed socket drive.
                  The shank has a partial thread of a regular form. The pointed tip has a notch and it is not bifurcated.
                  The article is designed for use in wood and wood panels.

                      (1) See image.

                  7318 12 10

                  Classification is determined by General Rules 1 and 6 for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature and by the wording of CN codes 7318, 7318 12 and 7318 12 10.
                  Given its characteristics (partially threaded shank, notch at the end of the pointed tip and no bifurcation), the article is specifically designed to bite its way into wood. The article is therefore considered to be a wood screw falling under subheading 7318 12.
                  The article is therefore to be classified under CN code 7318 12 10 as a wood screw of stainless steel.

         (1)  The image is purely for information.

   THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

   Whereas:

               (1)

               Implementing Regulation (EU) No 543/2011 lays down, pursuant to the outcome of the Uruguay Round multilateral trade negotiations, the criteria whereby the Commission fixes the standard values for imports from third countries, in respect of the products and periods stipulated in Annex XVI, Part A thereto.

               (2)

               The standard import value is calculated each working day, in accordance with Article 136(1) of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 543/2011, taking into account variable daily data. Therefore this Regulation should enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union,

   Article 1
   The standard import values referred to in Article 136 of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 543/2011 are fixed in the Annex to this Regulation.
