1.   The compensation mechanism shall be triggered on the basis of one or both of the following thresholds, as the case may be:

| (a) | the total value of EU exports of engines listed in Annex 1 to this Agreement into Russia in year 2010 (expressed in US dollars); and |
| --- | --- |

(a)

the total value of EU exports of engines listed in Annex 1 to this Agreement into Russia in year 2010 (expressed in US dollars); and

| (b) | the total value of EU exports of other parts and components (including parts and components for engines) listed in Annex 2 to this Agreement into Russia in year 2010 (expressed in US dollars). |
| --- | --- |

(b)

the total value of EU exports of other parts and components (including parts and components for engines) listed in Annex 2 to this Agreement into Russia in year 2010 (expressed in US dollars).

2.   The thresholds referred to in paragraph 1 of this Article are set out in Annex 3 to this Agreement.

Article 5

Triggering of the compensation mechanism

1.   On 1 March of each calendar year, the Parties shall review the statistics of EU exports of covered products during the previous calendar year provided by Russia pursuant to Article 10 of this Agreement.

The compensation mechanism shall be triggered when the value of EU exports of covered products during a trigger year falls by more than 3 percent below one or both of the relevant thresholds set out in Annex 3 to this Agreement.

2.   The EU can trigger the compensation mechanism by written notification to Russia based on the statistics to be provided by Russia pursuant to Article 10 of this Agreement. For the first triggering period, Russia shall adopt compensation measures no later than three months after the date of receipt of such written notification. Where a compensation quota is already in place, paragraph 2 of Article 7 of this Agreement shall apply. The first calendar year to be monitored as a possible trigger year shall be the year 2012.

Article 6

Exceptional circumstances

1.   In case the conditions for triggering the compensation mechanism established in Article 5 of this Agreement are met but a significant decrease of the total number of new cars sold in Russia (expressed in units) occurs in the trigger year compared to the preceding year, the following shall apply.

If the rate of the decrease of sales of new cars is at least 25 percent but does not exceed 45 percent, the size of the otherwise applicable compensation quota shall be calculated in the following way:

| (a) | if the decrease of sales of new cars reaches 25 percent, the value of the compensation quota will be reduced by 25 percent; |
| --- | --- |

(a)

if the decrease of sales of new cars reaches 25 percent, the value of the compensation quota will be reduced by 25 percent;

| (b) | for any further decrease between 25 percent and 45 percent, each 1 percent decrease of sales of new cars will result in a further 3,75 percent decrease of the value of the compensation quota. Thereby, when the decrease of the sales of new cars reaches 45 percent, the compensation quota will be zero. |
| --- | --- |

(b)

for any further decrease between 25 percent and 45 percent, each 1 percent decrease of sales of new cars will result in a further 3,75 percent decrease of the value of the compensation quota. Thereby, when the decrease of the sales of new cars reaches 45 percent, the compensation quota will be zero.

2.   The competent authorities of Russia shall provide the European Commission with statistics concerning the sales of new cars (expressed in units) in Russia in accordance with Annex 4 to this Agreement.

3.   The competent authorities of Russia shall inform the European Commission promptly of their intentions to apply this Article and shall provide the necessary statistics and analysis providing evidence that the conditions of this Article have been met. Consultations shall take place at the request of the European Commission about the intention of Russia to open reduced quota(s) or no compensation quota(s).

Article 7

Scope and duration of measures taken under the compensation mechanism

1.   Measures taken under the compensation mechanism shall apply for a minimum period of 12 months from the date of their introduction. Ten months after the date of introduction of the measures, and every 12 months afterwards, the size of the compensation quota shall be reviewed in light of the further evolution of EU exports of the covered products during the previous calendar year in the following manner:

| (a) | if EU exports of the covered products have reached, in the last calendar year (hereinafter referred to as ‘reference period’), a level equal or superior to the respective threshold set out in Annex 3 to this Agreement, Russia may terminate the application of the compensation quota within two months from the date of the review; |
| --- | --- |

(a)

if EU exports of the covered products have reached, in the last calendar year (hereinafter referred to as ‘reference period’), a level equal or superior to the respective threshold set out in Annex 3 to this Agreement, Russia may terminate the application of the compensation quota within two months from the date of the review;

| (b) | if EU exports of the covered products are below the respective threshold set out in Annex 3 to this Agreement in the reference period, the compensation quota shall continue to apply for another 12 months for a value corresponding to the difference between the threshold and the value of the relevant imports in the reference period. |
| --- | --- |

(b)

if EU exports of the covered products are below the respective threshold set out in Annex 3 to this Agreement in the reference period, the compensation quota shall continue to apply for another 12 months for a value corresponding to the difference between the threshold and the value of the relevant imports in the reference period.

2.   In cases described in point (b) of paragraph 1 of this Article, Russia shall ensure that the administrative measures necessary for the continued application of the compensation quota, with any necessary adjustment, shall be adopted at least 30 days before the end of the original period for which the compensation quota had been opened.

Article 8

Allocation of the compensation quota

1.   The allocation of the compensation quota shall aim at ensuring the highest possible level of utilisation of that quota. To that end, Russia shall administer the quota distribution by means of an import licensing system.

2.   Any natural or legal person duly registered in Russia may apply for a licence to import within the compensation quota. Covered products concerned of EU origin presented for customs clearance shall benefit from the corresponding import duties set out in Annex 1 and/or Annex 2 to this Agreement within the compensation quota, upon submission of an import licence and a proof of origin in accordance with Annex 5 to this Agreement. Russia shall not make such imports within the compensation quota, or the subsequent use of such products imported within such quota, subject to any other additional conditions as compared to imports of the same products outside the compensation quota, or to any local content requirements.

3.   The allocation of the compensation quota to applicants shall be made promptly and according to a method established by a legal act to be introduced by Russia in compliance with the relevant legislation of the Customs Union of the Russian Federation, the Republic of Belarus and the Republic of Kazakhstan. Russia shall notify the EU of the relevant legislation as soon as it is adopted. Such method shall take into consideration the interests of traditional and new importers, making special consideration of requests from applicants having concluded investment agreements according to Order 73 and allocate at least 10 percent of the compensation quota to new importers.

4.   The procedures for control of the origin of the covered products concerned are set out in Annex 5 to this Agreement.

Article 9

Relation to investment agreements

The aggregate figure of in-quota imports in each year by importers who have concluded investment agreements under terms and conditions set out in Annex 1 and Annex 2 to Order 73 (calculated in absolute value of those imports for components) can be deducted from the overall annual value of production by those investors in the given year, against which the general local content requirement established in Order 73 applies.

Article 10

Monitoring

1.   Russia shall submit monthly trade statistics to the EU in accordance with Annex 4 to this Agreement, starting with the statistics corresponding to trade in January 2012. Statistics of each month shall be delivered not later than 30 days after the end of such month. Annual statistics for each full year shall be delivered not later than 28 February of the following year as provided for in Annex 4 to this Agreement. Where a compensation quota is established, and for the whole duration of such quota, Russia shall also provide information to the European Commission on a monthly basis regarding the import licences issued for that quota, as provided for in Annex 4 to this Agreement.

2.   The Parties shall hold consultations if a decrease of EU exports of covered products below the corresponding threshold is observed for a period of 12 months. After the entry into force of the compensation mechanism in accordance with Article 5 of this Agreement, Parties shall hold consultations on a quarterly basis.

Article 11

Consultations

1.   Consultations shall be held on any issues arising from the implementation of this Agreement at the request of either Party. Any consultations shall take place in a spirit of cooperation and with a desire to reconcile the differences between the Parties.

Article 12

Dispute settlement mechanism

1.   If a Party considers that the other Party has failed to fulfil its obligations under this Agreement, and consultations pursuant to Article 11 of this Agreement have failed to lead to a mutually agreed solution within the time period established in paragraph 3 of that Article, such Party may request the establishment of a conciliation panel pursuant to Article 3 of the Decision of the Cooperation Council established by the Agreement on partnership and cooperation establishing a partnership between the European Communities and their Member States, of one part, and the Russian Federation, of the other part, of 24 June 1994, to establish rules of procedure for the settlement of disputes under that Agreement, adopted on 7 April 2004 (hereinafter referred to as the ‘Decision of the Cooperation Council on Dispute Settlement’).

2.   Where recourse is made to a conciliation panel under paragraph 1 of this Article, the provisions of the Decision of the Cooperation Council on Dispute Settlement shall apply, with the exception of Article 2 of that Decision regarding consultations. It is understood that whenever that Decision refers to disputes regarding the Agreement on partnership and cooperation establishing a partnership between the European Communities and their Member States, of one part, and the Russian Federation, of the other part, of 24 June 1994 (hereinafter referred to as the ‘Partnership and Cooperation Agreement’), it shall be read as referring to disputes regarding this Agreement.

3.   The conciliation panel established in accordance with paragraph 1 of this Article shall not have competence to consider the compatibility of a measure by a Party, examined by that conciliation panel, with the provisions of the Partnership and Cooperation Agreement or the WTO Agreement.

4.   If the indicative list of conciliators foreseen in paragraph 1 of Article 4 of the Decision of the Cooperation Council on Dispute Settlement has not been established by the time a Party requests the establishment of a conciliation panel pursuant to Article 3 of that Decision for an alleged violation of this Agreement, and if a Party fails to appoint a conciliator or the Parties fail to reach an agreement on the chairperson of the conciliation panel within the respective timeframes established for this purpose in Article 4 of that Decision, any Party may ask the WTO Director-General to nominate the conciliators that remain to be appointed. The WTO Director-General, after consulting with the Parties, will inform both Parties of the nominated conciliator(s) no later than 20 days after the date of receipt of such a request.

5.   The relevant dispute settlement provisions of any agreement between the EU and Russia subsequent to the Partnership and Cooperation Agreement (hereinafter referred to as the ‘New Agreement’), shall apply to disputes regarding the alleged violation of obligations under this Agreement. It is understood that whenever the New Agreement refers to disputes regarding the New Agreement, it shall be read as referring to disputes relating to this Agreement.

Article 13

Entry into force and termination of this Agreement

1.   This Agreement shall be approved by the Parties in accordance with their respective internal procedures.

2.   This Agreement shall enter into force 30 days after the date on which the Parties exchange written notifications certifying that they have completed their respective internal procedures or on such other date as the Parties may agree, but not earlier than the date of the accession of Russia to the WTO.

3.   Pending its entry into force, this Agreement shall be applied provisionally from the date of the accession of Russia to the WTO.

4.   This Agreement shall remain in force until 1 July 2018, or until the date when Russia has eliminated all WTO-incompatible elements of its investment regime in the automotive sector, whichever is the later.

PROOF OF ORIGIN

PROOF OF ORIGIN

Article 8

1.   Products of EU origin, as defined in Article 2 of this Agreement, to be exported to Russia within a compensation quota shall be accompanied by a certificate of EU origin conforming to the model in Appendix 2 to this Annex. Certificates of EU origin may be issued in any official language of the EU. However, if a certificate of origin has been issued in a language other than English, it shall include a translation into English.

2.   The certificate of origin shall be certified by the competent authorities or authorized agencies in the EU Member State of exportation (hereinafter referred to as ‘the competent EU organisations’) as to whether the products in question can be considered products of EU origin in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 of this Annex.

Article 9

The certificate of origin shall be issued only on application in writing by the exporter or, under the exporter’s responsibility, by his authorised representative. The competent EU organisation shall ensure that the certificate of origin is properly completed and for this purpose they shall request any necessary documentary evidence or carry out any checking which they consider appropriate.

Article 10

The discovery of slight discrepancies between the statements made in the certificate of origin and those made in the documents produced to the Russian customs authorities for the purpose of carrying out the necessary formalities for importing the products shall not ipso facto cast doubt upon the statements in the certificate. The certificate of origin shall be accepted, where it may be established that the documents submitted correspond to the products concerned. Obvious formal errors in a certificate of origin, such as typing errors, should not cause this document to be rejected if these errors are not such as to create doubts concerning the correctness of the statements made in that document.

Article 11

1.   In the event of the theft, loss or destruction of a certificate of origin, the exporter may apply to the competent EU organisation which issued the document for a duplicate to be made out on the basis of the export documents in his possession. The duplicate of any such certificate so issued shall bear the endorsement ‘duplicate’.

2.   The duplicate shall bear the date of the original certificate of origin.

SECTION 3

MUTUAL ASSISTANCE

MUTUAL ASSISTANCE

Article 12

In order to ensure the correct application of this Annex, the EU and Russia shall offer mutual assistance for checking of the authenticity of the certificates of origin issued pursuant to this Agreement.

The European Commission shall send to the Russian customs authorities the names and addresses of the competent EU organisations, together with specimens of the original stamps they use. The European Commission shall also notify the Russian customs authorities of any change in these particulars.

Article 14

1.   Subsequent verification of certificates of origin shall be carried out at random, or whenever the Russian customs authorities have reasonable doubt as to the authenticity of the certificate or as to the accuracy of the information regarding the true origin of the products in question.

2.   In such cases, the Russian customs authorities shall return the certificate of origin or a copy thereof to the European Commission giving, where appropriate, the reasons of form or substance which justify an inquiry. If the invoice has been submitted, such invoice or a copy thereof shall be attached to the certificate or its copy. The Russian customs authorities shall also forward any information that has been obtained suggesting that the particulars given on the said certificate are inaccurate.

3.   Without prejudice to any relevant provision of supplementary Protocol agreed pursuant to Article 15 of this Annex, the results of the subsequent verifications carried out in accordance with paragraphs 1 and 2 of this Article shall be communicated to the Russian customs authorities normally in three months and in no case later than six months after the inquiry referred to in paragraph 2 of this Article. The information communicated shall indicate whether the disputed certificate applies to the goods actually exported and whether these goods are eligible for export to Russia under the arrangements established by this Agreement. Subject to the protection of business confidential information, the information communicated shall also include, at the request of the Russian customs authority, copies of all the documentation necessary to fully determine the facts, and in particular the true origin of the goods.

4.   For the purpose of subsequent verification of certificates of origin, copies of the certificates as well as any export documents referring to them shall be kept by the competent EU organisations for at least three years following the end of the verification.

5.   Recourse to the verification procedure specified in this Article must not constitute an obstacle to the release for the importation of the products in question.

1.   Letter from the Russian Federation

Geneva, 16 December 2011

Dear Sirs,

Following negotiations between the Russian Federation and the European Union (hereinafter referred to as the ‘Parties’) with regard to the introduction or increase of export duties on raw materials, the Parties have reached the following understanding:

The Government of the Russian Federation shall make its best efforts not to introduce or increase export duties for the raw materials listed in the Annex to this letter. This list was established based on the following criteria:

| | Raw materials, which are not listed in Part V of the Schedule of Concessions and Commitments on Goods of the Russian Federation in the World Trade Organization (WTO) and for which the Russian Federation has more than 10 percent of global production or exports, or where the European Union has major import interest, either existing or potential, or where there is a risk of tension in global supplies. |
| --- | --- |

Raw materials, which are not listed in Part V of the Schedule of Concessions and Commitments on Goods of the Russian Federation in the World Trade Organization (WTO) and for which the Russian Federation has more than 10 percent of global production or exports, or where the European Union has major import interest, either existing or potential, or where there is a risk of tension in global supplies.

| | Should the Government of the Russian Federation consider the introduction or increase of export duties on those raw materials, it shall hold consultations with the European Commission at least two months prior to the implementation of such measures, with a view to arriving at a solution taking into account the interests of both Parties. |
| --- | --- |

Should the Government of the Russian Federation consider the introduction or increase of export duties on those raw materials, it shall hold consultations with the European Commission at least two months prior to the implementation of such measures, with a view to arriving at a solution taking into account the interests of both Parties.

| | With regard to products listed in the Annex to this letter which are also included in Part V of the Schedule of Concessions and Commitments on Goods of the Russian Federation in the WTO concerning export duties, provisions of this letter do not apply. |
| --- | --- |

With regard to products listed in the Annex to this letter which are also included in Part V of the Schedule of Concessions and Commitments on Goods of the Russian Federation in the WTO concerning export duties, provisions of this letter do not apply.

| | In case the European Union confirms its agreement with the terms set forth in this letter, I propose that this letter and the reply letter of the European Union shall constitute the Agreement between the Russian Federation and the European Union relating to the introduction or increase of export duties on raw materials. This Agreement shall enter into force on the date on which the Parties exchange written notifications certifying that they have completed their respective internal procedures. This Agreement shall be applied provisionally from the date of the Russian Federation’s accession to the WTO. |
