amending Annexes II and V to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 of the European Parliament and of the 
Council as regards maximum residue levels for oxamyl in or on certain products 
(Text with EEA relevance) 
THE EUR OPEAN COMMISSION,
Havi ng regar d to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Havi ng regard to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 Febr uary 2005 on 
maximum residue levels of pesticides in or on food and feed of plant and animal origin and amending Council 
Directive 91/414/EEC (1), and in particular Article 14(1), point (a) and Article 18(1), point (b), thereof,
Whereas:
(1) For the active substance oxamy l, maximum residue levels (‘MRLs ’) were set in Annex II to Regulation (EC) 
No 396/2005.
(2) The appro val of the active substance oxamyl expired on 1 May 2023 (2). All author isations for plant prot ection 
products containing that active substance will have been revoked by 1 November 2023 .
(3) In the conte xt of the procedure for the renewal of the approval of that active substance in accordance with 
Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council (3), the European Food Safety 
Authority (‘the Auth ority’) published a conclusion on the peer review of the risk assessment of that active 
substance (4), establishing a lower acceptable daily intake (ADI) and a lower acute reference dose (ARfD).
(4) In accordance with Article 43 of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005, the Commission requeste d the Authority to provid e 
a reasoned opinion, assessing the risks that the current MRLs, including those based on Codex maximum residue 
limits (CXLs), for oxamyl, may pose to consumers in light of those lower ADI and ARfD.
(5) In its reasoned opinion (5), the Author ity identif ied unaccept able chronic exposure risks for a wide range of diets, as 
well as acute exposure risks for a wide rang e of commodities, including for melons and waterm elons for which MRLs 
are set on the basis of CXLs. Theref ore, no MRL can be maintained and MRLs for oxamyl in all products should be set 
at the respective limits of determination (LOD), whic h should be set in Annex V to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 in 
accordance with Article 18(1), point (b) of that Regulation. Additionally , the footnot es indicating lack of information 
on storag e stability , crop metabolism and residue trials should be delet ed.
(6) Additionally , the Auth ority identif ied that the default LOD value of 0,01* mg/kg does not provid e a suffi cient level of 
prote ction for consumers for most commodities, so that the LOD for these products should be set at lower, more 
prote ctive levels.

(2)Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2023/741 of 5 Apr il 2023 concer ning the non-renewal of the approval of the active 
substance oxamyl, in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council, and amending 
Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 540/2011 (OJ L 98, 11.4.2023, p. 1).
(3)Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 October 2009 concer ning the placing of plant 
prot ection products on the market and repealing Council Directives 79/117/EEC and 91/414/EEC (OJ L 309, 24.11.2009, p. 1).

2024/331  22.1.2024ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2024/331/oj 2/16(7) The Commission consulted the European Union reference laboratori es for residues of pesticides as regards the need 
to adap t certain LODs. Those laboratori es proposed product-specific LODs that are analytically achi evable.
(8) Through the World Trade Org anisation, the trading partners of the Union were consulte d on the new MRLs and their 
comments have been taken into account.
(9) Annex II and V to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 should theref ore be amended according ly.
(10) A reasonable period should be allowed to elapse before the new MRLs become applicable in order to permit Member 
State s, third countr ies and food business operat ors to adapt themselves to the requirements which result from the 
modifi cation of the MRLs.
(11) The measures provid ed for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committ ee on 
Plants, Animals, Food and Feed,
