om fjernelse af afgifter på informationsteknologiprodukter 
Forslag til 
RÅDETS AFGØRELSE 
om fjernelse af afgifter på visse alkoholholdige drikkevarer 
(forelagt af Kommissionen) 

BEGRUNDELSE 
På sit særlige møde den 13. december 1996 i Singapore vedtog Rådet (1) en ministererklæring om 
handel med informationsteknologiprodukter og (2) hilste den bilaterale aftale ad referendum indgået 
med USA om fremskyndet gennemførelse af nulsatser for "brune" spirituosa under Uruguay-runden 
og nulsatser for andre alkoholholdige drikkevarer velkommen. 
Mht. informationsteknologiaftalen (ITA) mindes Rådet om, at EU og USA den 3. december i 
forbindelse med EU/USA-topmødet i Madrid fastlagde en ny transatlantisk dagsorden, hvori det bl.a. 
siges, at der i betragtning af informationssamfundets betydning skal træffes konkrete foranstaltninger 
med henblik på at forsøge at indgå en aftale om informationsteknologi. Det parallelle og associerede 
industriforum, den transatlantiske erhvervsdialog, gav dette politiske tilsagn ekstra vægt med en 
erklæring om, at det er et overvældende flertals opfattelse, at IT A-pakken bør indeholde et tilsagn om 
at fjerne alle toldsatser senest i januar 2000. 
Den 22. oktober 1996 efter sonderende konsultationer med en række tredjelande og drøftelser med 
det særlige udvalg, der er fastsat traktatens artikel 113, foreslog Kommissionen Rådet at træffe 
beslutning om at indlede forhandlinger med tredjelande om indgåelse af en 
informationsteknologiaftale. Rådet traf en sådan beslutning den 15. november 1996. 
Efter flersidede forhandlinger vedtog ministre fra 15 WTO-lande eller lande, der søger om tiltrædelse 
(Australien, Canada, EU, Hongkong, Island, Indonesien, Japan, Korea, Liechtenstein, Norge, 
Singapore, Schweiz, Taiwan, Tyrkiet og USA), en erklæring i Singapore den 13. december 1996. I 
erklæringen fastsættes der en målsætning om at fjerne toldsatserne senest i år 2000 (og der foreskrives 
nedsættelser i fire faser) for IT-produkter, der detaljeret er opført i tillæg. Der henvises især til afsnit 4 
i retningslinjerne til erklæringen: 
"Deltagerne mødes, så snart det er praktisk muligt og under alle omstændigheder senest den 
1. april 1997 for at undersøge, hvilke accepter der er indgået, og for at vurdere, hvilke 
konklusioner der kan drages deraf. Deltagerne gennemfører de foranstaltninger, der er 
omhandlet i erklæringen, forudsat at deltagere, der repræsenterer ca. 90% af 
verdenshandelen1 med informationsteknologiprodukter, inden de har meddelt deres accept, 
og forudsat at der til deltagernes tilfredshed er nået til enighed om faseringen. I en vurdering 
af, hvorvidt de foranstaltninger, der er omhandlet i erklæringen, i tilfælde af, at den 
procentdel af verdenshandelen, som deltagerne repræsenterer, ligger under 90% af 
verdenshandelen med informationsteknologiprodukter, bør gennemføres, kan deltagerne tage 
hensyn til omfanget af deltagelsen af stater eller særskilte toldområder, der for dem 
repræsenterer den væsentlige del af deres egen handel med sådanne produkter. På dette møde 
fastslår deltagerne, hvorvidt disse kriterier er opfyldt." 
Denne procentdel beregnes af WTO-sekretariatet på basis af de seneste disponible data på 
tidspunktet for mødet. 
Den 31. januar 1997 blev de flersidede tekniske drøftelser, der var forudset i 
ministererklæringen, afsluttet. Produktdækningen blev drøftet, men det oprindelige tillæg til 
ministererklæringen blev ikke ændret. Man blev enig om, at den første række af 
konsultationer om yderligere produktdækning skulle begynde den 1. oktober 1997, og man 
nåede frem til en aftale ad referendum om anmodninger om "yderligere fasering" fra nogle af 
de oprindelige underskrivende parter. Disse omfattede: Indonesien, Korea og Taiwan. New 
Zealand, som ikke anmodede om "yderligere fasering", og Costa Rica, som fik en aftale med 
de andre deltagere om "yderligere fasering", fik status som deltagere. 
Rådet besluttede på en særligt møde den 13. december 1996 i Singapore, at det ville være 
nødvendigt at træffe yderligere en rådsafgørelse før den gennemgang, der var planlagt at 
finde sted før den 1. april 1997 for at kunne give aftalen den definitive accept. Dette ville 
være nødvendigt for at binde EF mht. dets tilsagn. En sådan afgørelse afhænger imidlertid af 
bestemmelserne om den kritiske masse og en aftale om "fasering". For at træffe de 
nødvendige forberedelser er vedlagte udkast til afgørelse udarbejdet på det grundlag, at begge 
disse kriterier er opfyldt. Hvis disse kriterier hen mod slutningen af marts ikke er opfyldt, 
skal sagen tages op til fornyet overvejelse. 
Mht. alkoholholdige drikkevarer finder Kommissionen, at den aftale, der er indgået med 
USA i form af et aftalememorandum, i betydelig grad vil kunne forbedre EU's 
eksportpotentiel. Kommissionen vil fortsætte sine bestræbelser på at få andre parter 
inddraget i denne aftale. 
Kommissionen forelægger herved Rådet to forslag til rådsafgørelser.

efter beretninger fra Kommissionen om dens sonderende konsultationer med tredjelande 
besluttede Rådet den 16. november 1996 at indlede forliandlinger med tredjelande om 
indgåelse af en informationsteknologiaftale (ITA); 
EF godkendte erklæringen om handel med informationsteknologiprodukter i Singapore den 
13. december 1996; denne erklæring fastsætter en række betingelser for fjernelse af told på 
informationsteknologiprodukter; disse betingelser er opfyldt -

13.12.1996 MINISTERERKLÆRING OM HANDEL MED 
INFORMATIONSTEKNOLOGIPRODUKTER 
Ministrene, 
som repræsenterer følgende medlemmer af Verdenshandelsorganisationen (WTO), og 
stater eller særskilte toldområder, der er i færd med at tiltræde WTO, og som i Singapore 
enedes om en udvidelse af verdenshandelen med informationsteknologiprodukter, og som 
tegner sig for vel over [80]% af verdenshandelen med disse produkter (i det følgende 
benævnt "parterne"): 
Australien Japan 
Canada Korea 
Taiwan Norge 
De Europæiske Fællesskaber Singapore 
Hongkong Schweiz1 
Island Tyrkiet 
Indonesien De Forenede Stater 
som tager hensyn til den nøglerolle, som informationsteknologiprodukter spiller i 
udviklingen af informationsindustrierne og i den dynamiske udvidelse af 
verdensøkonomien, 
som erkender målene for højnelse af levestandarderne og en udvidelse af 
vareproduktionen og -handelen, 
som ønsker den største frihed i verdenshandelen med informationsteknologiprodukter, 
som ønsker at anspore til den vedvarende teknologiske udvikling af 
informationsteknologiindustrien på verdensplan, 
som er klar over det positive bidrag, som informationsteknologi yder til den globale 
økonomiske vækst og velfærd, 
som er enedes om at omsætte resultaterne af disse forhandlinger i praksis, som indebærer 
tillægsindrømmelser til dem, der er anført i de lister, der er knyttet til Marrakesh-
protokollen til den almindelige overenskomst og told og udenrigshandel 1994, og 
som erkender, at resultaterne af disse forhandlinger også indebærer nogle indrømmelser, 
som blev tilbudt under forhandlingerne, og som medfører lister, der knyttes til Marrakesh-
protokollen, 
erklærer følgende: 
På vegne af toldunionen mellem Schweiz og Liechtenstein. 
;> 
1. Hver parts handelsordning bør udvikle sig på en måde, der bidrager til at forbedre 
markedsadgangsmulighederne for informationsteknologiprodukter. 
2. Efter retningslinjerne i bilaget til denne erklæring binder og afskaffer hver af 
parterne tolden og andre afgifter af enhver art som omhandlet i artikel II, stk. 1, litra b), i 
den almindelige overenskomst om told og udenrigshandel 1994 med hensyn til følgende. 
a) alle produkter, der er tariferet (eller kan tariferes) i det harmoniserede system 
(1996) (HS) under de positioner, der er angivet i tillæg A til bilaget til denne 
erklæring, og 
b) alle produkter, der er angivet i tillæg B til bilaget til denne erklæring, uanset 
om de er medtaget i tillæg A 
ved nedsættelse i lige store rater af tolden, som begyndes i 1997 og afsluttes i 2000, idet 
det erkendes, at en yderligere spredning af nedsættelserne og før gennemførelsen en 
udvidelse af produktdækningen kan blive nødvendig i begrænsede tilfælde. 
3. Ministrene udtrykker tilfredshed med den brede produktdækning i tillæggene til 
bilaget til denne erklæring. De pålægger deres respektive embedsmænd at udvise velvilje 
med henblik på at bringe de tekniske drøftelser i Genève til en afslutning på basis af disse 
retningslinjer og at pålægge disse embedsmænd at færdiggøre deres arbejde inden den 31. 
december 1997, således at denne erklæring kan vinde tilslutning fra det størst mulige antal 
deltagere. 
4. Ministrene opfordrer ministrene for andre WTO-medlemmer og stater eller 
særskilte toldunioner, som er i færd med at tiltræde WTO, til at give lignende instrukser til 
deres respektive embedsmænd, således at disse kan deltage i de i stk. 3 omhandlede 
tekniske drøftelser og fiildt blive inddraget i udvidelsen af vedenshandelen med 
informationsteknologiprodukter. 
Bilag: Retningslinjer og produktdækning 
Tillæg A: liste over HS-positioner 
Tillæg B: vareliste. 
BILAG 
Retningslinjer og produktdækning 
Ethvert medlem af Verdenshandelsorganisationen eller stat eller særkilt toldområde, der er 
i færd med at tiltræde WTO, kan deltage i udvidelsen af verdenshandelen med 
informationsteknologiprodukter efter følgende retningslinjer. 
1. Hver deltager indarbejder de i stk. 2 i erklæringen beskrevne foranstaltninger i sin 
liste til den almindelige overenskomst om told og udenrigshandel 1994 og tillige i enten 
sin egen toldposition eller sekscifrede position i det harmoniserede system (1996) (HS) 
eller enhver anden offentliggjort udgave af toldlisten, afhængigt af hvilken sædvanligvis 
anvendes af importører og eksportører. Deltagere, som ikke er medlemmer af WTO, 
gennemfører disse foranstaltninger på et autonomt grundlag i afventning af deres 
tiltrædelse af WTO og indarbejder disse foranstaltninger i deres WTO-
markedsadgangsliste for varer. 
2. Med henblik herpå forelægger hver deltager så snart som muligt og senest den 1. 
marts 1997 alle de andre deltagere et dokument indholdende a) de nærmere enkeltheder 
om, hvordan den relevante toldbehandling vil blive ydet i dens WTO-liste over 
indrømmelser, og b) en liste over de detaljerede HS-positioner for de varer, der er angivet 
i tillæg B. Disse dokumenter undersøges og godkendes ved konsensus, og undersøgelsen 
skal være afsluttet senest den 1. april 1997. Så snart undersøgelsen af sådanne dokumenter 
er afsluttet, forelægges disse som en ændring af den pågældende deltagers liste i 
overensstemmelse med afgørelse af 26. marts 1980 om procedurerne for ændring og 
berigtigelse af lister over toldindrømmelser (BISD 27S/25). 
a) Med de indrømmelser, der foreslås af hver deltager som ændringer af deres liste, 
bindes og afskaffes al told og andre afgifter af enhver art på 
informationsteknologiprodukter på følgende måde: 
i) afskaffelsen af tolden og afgifterne sker ved en satsnedsættelse i lige store 
rater, medmindre andet vedtages af deltagerne. Medmindre andet vedtages af 
deltagerne, skal hver deltager senest den 1. juli 1997 binde alle toldsatser for 
de produkter, der er angivet i tillæggene, og iværksætte en sådan 
satsnedsættelse senest den 1. juli 1997, den anden satsnedsættelse senest den 
1. januar 1998 og den tredje satsnedsættelse senest den 1. januar 1999, idet 
toldafskaffelsen skal være gennemført senest den 1. januar 2000. Deltagerne 
er enige om at tilskynde til autonom afskaffelse af tolden inden disse datoer. 
Den nedsatte sats i hvert stadium afrundes til den første decimal; 
ii) afskaffelsen af andre afgifter af enhver art som omhandlet i artikel II, stk. 1, 
litra b), i den almindelige overenskomst skal være gennemført den 1. juli 1997, 
medmindre andet angives i deltagerens dokument, der forelægges de andre 
deltagere til undersøgelse. 
b) De ændringer, som en deltager foreslår af sin liste med sigte på at gennemføre sin 
binding og afskaffelse af told på informationsteknologiprodukter, skal resultere i 
følgende: 
i) skabelse - i tilfældet med de HS-positioner, der er angivet i tillæg A - hvor det 
er muligt af underopdelinger af listen på nationalt toldpositionsplan og 
7 
ii) vedlæggelse - i tilfældet med de varer, der er angivet i tillæg B - af et bilag til 
listen indeholdende alle varer i tillæg B, som skal angive de detaljerede HS-
positioner for disse varer på enten nationalt toldpositionsplan eller sekscifret 
HS-positionsplan. 
Hver deltager skal straks ændre sin nationale tarif, således at den afspejler de 
ændringer, den har foreslået, så snart de er trådt i kraft. 
3. Deltagerne mødes med mellemrum under Rådet for Varehandels auspicier for at 
undersøge den i tillæggene angivne produktdækning med henblik på ved konsensus at 
vedtage, om tillæggene i lyset af den teknologiske udvikling, erfaringer med anvendelsen 
af toldindrømmelserne eller ændringer af HS-nomenklaturen bør ændres med sigte på 
indarbejdelse af nye varer, og for at føre konsultationer om ikke-toldmæssige hindringer 
vedrørende informationsteknologiprodukter. Sådanne konsultationer berører ikke 
rettigheder og forpligtelserne i henhold til WTO-overenskomsten. 
4. Deltagerne mødes, så snart det er praktisk muligt og under alle omstændigheder 
senest den 1. april 1997 for at undersøge, hvilke accepter der er indgået, og for at 
vurdere, hvilke konklusioner der kan drages deraf. Deltagerne gennemfører de 
foranstaltninger, der er omhandlet i erklæringen, forudsat at deltagere, der repræsenterer 
ca. 90% af verdenshandelen2 med informationsteknologiprodukter, inden da har 
notificeret deres accept, og forudsat at der til deltagernes tilfredshed er nået til enighed 
om faseringen. I en vurdering af, hvorvidt de foranstaltninger, der er omhandlet i 
erklæringen, i tilfælde af, at den procentdel af verdenshandelen, som deltagerne 
repræsenterer, ligger under 90% af verdenshandelen med informationsteknologiprodukter, 
bør gennemføres, kan deltagerne tage hensyn til omfanget af deltagelsen af stater eller 
særskilte toldområder, der for dem repræsenterer den væsentlige del af deres egen handel 
med sådanne produkter. På dette møde fastslår deltagerne, hvorvidt disse kriterier er 
opfyldt. 
5. Deltagerne mødes så hyppigt, som det er nødvendigt, og senest den 30. september 
1997 for at vurdere, om der er uoverensstemmelser mellem dem med hensyn til tarifering 
af informationsteknologiprodukter, idet man begynder med de varer, der er angivet i tillæg 
B. Deltagerne er enige om det fælles mål, som er om fornødent at nå til en fælles tarifering 
for disse varer i den bestående HS-nomenklatur under hensyntagen til fortolkningerne og 
afgørelserne fra Toldsamarbejdsrådet (også kendt som Verdenstoldorganisationen eller 
WCO). I alle tilfælde, hvor der fortsat består uoverensstemmelse med hensyn til tarifering, 
overvejer deltagerne, hvorvidt der bør rettes et fælles forslag til WCO om ajourføring af 
den bestående HS-nomenklatur eller om løsning af problemet ved en fortolkning af HS-
nomenklaturen. 
6. Deltagerne er enige om, at artikel XXIII i den almindelige overenskomst kan 
anvendes i forbindelse med annullering eller begrænsning af de fordele, der følger direkte 
for et deltagende WTO-medlem af implementeringen af denne erklæring, som følge af et 
andet deltagende WTO-medlems anvendelse af enhver foranstaltning, uanset om denne 
foranstaltning er i strid med den almindelige overenskomst. 
2 Denne procentdel beregnes af WTO-sekretariatct på basis af de seneste disponible data på tidspunktet 
for mødet. 
8 
7. Hver deltager skal velvilligt overveje enhver anmodning om konsultationer fra en 
anden deltager om de ovenfor omhandlede tilsagn. Sådanne konsultationer berører ikke 
rettigheder og forpligtelser i henhold til WTO-overenskomsten. 
8. Deltagerne underretter under Rådet for Varehandels auspicier de andre 
medlemmer af WTO og stater eller særskilte toldområder, der er i færd med at tiltræde 
WTO, om disse retningslinjer og indleder konsultationer med sigte på at lette deres 
deltagelse i udvidelsen af handelen med informationsteknologiprodukter på basis af 
erklæringen. 
9. I disse retningslinjer forstås der ved udtrykket "deltager" de medlemmer af WTO 
eller stater eller særskilte toldområder, der er i færd med at tiltræde WTO, som forelægger 
det i stk. 2 beskrevne dokument senest den 1. marts 1997. 
10. Dette bilag er åbent for accept af alle medlemmer af WTO eller stater eller 
særskilte toldområder, der er i færd med at tiltræde WTO. Accepten meddeles skriftligt til 
generaldirektøren, som fremsender dem til alle deltagerne.

FINANSIERINGSOVERSIGT 
1. Forslag til en rådsafgørelse om fjernelse af afgifter på 
informationsteknologiprodukter og visse spiritusholdige drikkevarer. 
2. Budgetpost: Kapitel 12/artikel 120 
3. Retsgrundlag: Artikel 113 
4. Beskrivelse: Forslaget er en konsekvens af Rådets afgørelse om at 
indlede forhandlinger med tredjelande om indgåelse af en 
informationsteknologiaftale og af ministrenes politiske tilsagn ved 
ministerkonferencen i Singapore den 13. december 1996. 
Det vedrører fjernelse af afgifter på informationsteknologiprodukter og 
en række spiritusholdige drikkevarer senest i år 2000. 
5. Indtægtstype: Tab af indtægter fra afgifter på import fra tredjelande. 
6. Ændring i indtægtsniveau: 
Fjernelse af afgifterne på import af informationsteknologiprodukter vil blive 
afsluttet i 4 lige store årlige stadier fra den 1. juli 97 til den 1. januar 2000. 
Afgiftstabet beregnes som forskellen mellem det i forbindelse med Uruguay­
runden aftalte toldniveau (for hvert år) og den sats, der er aftalt som led i ITA 
(for samme år), der gælder for en importmængde som realiseret i 1995 (se 
bilag). Alt i alt svarer ITA-indtægtstabet kun til det yderligere indtægtstab. De 
endelige samlede tal er følgende: 
1.7.1997 
1.1.1998 
1.1.1989 242,6 mio. ECU 
643,3 mio. ECU 
891,3 mio. ECU 
1.1.2000 1241,8 mio. ECU 
Mht. spiritusholdige drikkevarer vil afgiftstabet på basis af EF-importen i 1995 
og baseret på værdiækvivalenterne for al MFN-import andrage følgende: 
1.7.1997 
1.1.1998 
1.1.1999 
1.1.2000 
1.1.2001 
1.1.2002 
1.1.2003 0,5 mio. ECU 
1,6 mio. ECU 
2,0 mio. ECU 
2,5 mio. ECU 
1,9 mio. ECU 
1,2 mio. ECU 
0,7 mio. ECU 
Det årlige gennemsnit er 1625 Kecu (6,5 år) og et beløb på i alt 10,5 mio. ECU 
Faldet i traditionelle egne indtægter finansieres ved hjælp af en stigning i BNP-
indtægterne.
