THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic
Community and in particular Article 113 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,Whereas the Community has accepted the extension of the Arrange-
ment regarding international trade in textiles on the conditions laid
down in the Protocol for the extension of the Arrangement and the
conclusions adopted by the GATT Textiles Committee on 9 December1992 and annexed to that Protocol;
Whereas the Community has negotiated an extension for three years of
the existing agreements on trade in textile products with a number of
supplier countries;
Whereas the agreements in question establish Community quantitative
limits for 1993, 1994 and 1995;
Whereas the Community has negotiated new bilateral agreements and
other arrangements with a number of supplier countries;
Whereas the Community has negotiated agreements in the form of
Additional Protocols on trade in textile products to the Europe Agree-ments and/or the Interim Agreements, with a number of suppliercountries;
Whereas it is necessary to ensure that the purpose or each of these
agreements, protocols and other arrangements should not be evadedby deflection of trade; whereas it is therefore necessary to determinethe way in which the origin of the products in question is checkedand the methods by which the appropriate administrative cooperation
is achieved;
Whereas compliance with the quantitative limits on exports established
under the agreements and protocols is ensured by a double-checkingsystem; whereas the effectiveness of these measures depends on theCommunity's establishing a set of Community quantitative limits to be
applied to imports of all products from supplier countries whose
exports are subject to quantitative limits;
Whereas products placed in a free zone or imported under the arrange-
ments governing customs warehouses, temporary importation or inward
processing (suspension system) should not be subject to such Commu-
nity quantitative limits;
Whereas agreements concluded by the Community with certain third
countries contain special provisions for imports of folklore andhandloom products into the Community, and it is therefore necessary
to lay down appropriate procedures for implementing their provisions;
Whereas provision should be made for special rules for products re-
imported under the arrangements for economic outward processingand for the management of the relevant Community quantitative limits;
Whereas, in order to ensure that Community quantitative limits are not
exceeded, it is necessary to establish a special management procedure
whereby the competent authorities of the Member States will not issueimport licences before obtaining prior confirmation from the Commis-sion that there are still amounts available of the quantitative limit inquestion;
Whereas it is also necessary to introduce efficient and rapid procedures
for altering Community quantitative limits and their allocation to takeaccount of the development of trade flows, needs for additional importsand the Community's obligations under the agreements negotiated withsupplier countries;1993R3030 — EN — 01.01.1994 — 001.001 — 2
▼B
Whereas, in the case of products not subject to quantitative limits, the
agreements provide for a consultation procedure whereby, in the eventthat the volume of imports of a given category of products into the
Community exceeds a certain threshold, agreement can be reached
with the supplier country on the introduction of quantitative limits;whereas the supplier countries also undertake to suspend or limit theirexports from the date of a request for such consultations, at the levelindicated by the Community; whereas if no agreement is reached with
the supplier country within the period stipulated, the Community may
introduce quantitative limits at a specific annual or multiannual level;
Whereas, in certain exceptional circumstances, it may be more appro-
priate for such quantitative limits to be applied at the regional level
rather than at the Community level and it is therefore necessary to laydown efficient procedures for deciding upon appropriate measureswhich do not disrupt unduly the functioning of the internal market;
Whereas the agreements, protocols or arrangements with certain coun-
tries foresee the possibility for the Community to subject textiles andclothing imports to a system of surveillance and it is therefore neces-sary to lay down the administrative procedures for introducing and
implementing such surveillance measures;
Whereas, as a result of the completion of the internal market for
textiles and clothing products on 1 January 1993, Community quantita-
tive limits are no longer broken down into Member States' shares;
whereas the agreements with third countries provide for consultationsin the event of any problems which may arise as a result of regionalconcentration of direct imports into the Community and it is necessaryto lay down an effective procedure for implementing these provisions;
Whereas the agreements, protocols and other arrangements with certain
third countries provide for a system of cooperation between theCommunity and the supplier countries with the aim of preventingcircumvention by means of transhipment, rerouting or other means;
whereas a consultation procedure is established under which an agree-
ment can be reached with the supplier country in question on anequivalent adjustment to the relevant quantitative limit when it appearsthat the agreement has been circumvented; whereas supplier countriesalso agreed to take the necessary measures to ensure that any adjust-
ments could be rapidly applied; whereas, in the absence of agreement
with a supplier country within the time limit provided, the Communitymay, where clear evidence of circumvention is provided, apply theequivalent adjustment;
Whereas in order inter alia to comply with time limits set in the agree-
ments it is necessary to lay down a rapid and efficient procedure forintroducing such quantitative limits and concluding such agreementswith the supplier countries;
Whereas the provisions of this Regulation must be applied in confor-
mity with the Community's international obligations, in particular withthose arising from the abovementioned agreements with supplier coun-
tries,

Annex V and originating in one of the countries listed in Annex IXexceed, in relation to the preceding calendar year's total imports intothe Community of products in the same category, the percentages indi-cated in the Table appearing in Annex IX, such imports may be made
subject to quantitative limits under the conditions laid down in this
Article.
2. Paragraph 1 shall not apply where the percentages specified
therein have been reached as a result of a fall in total imports into the
Community, and not as a result of an increase in exports of products
originating in the supplier country concerned.
3. Where the Commission, upon its own initiative or at the request
of a Member State, considers that the conditions set out in paragraph 11993R3030 — EN — 01.01.1994 — 001.001 — 6

accordance with the procedure specified in Article 16 with a viewto reaching an agreement or joint conclusions on a suitable level ofrestriction for the category or products in question;
(b) pending a mutually satisfactory solution, the Commission shall, as
a general rule, request the supplier country concerned to limit
exports of the products in the category concerned to the Commu-
nity, for a provisional period of three months from the date onwhich the request for consultations is made. Such provisional limitshall be established at 25 % of the level of imports during theprevious calender year, or 25 % of the level resulting from theapplication of the formula set out in paragraph 1, whichever is the
higher;
(c) it may, pending the outcome of the requested consultations, apply
to the imports of the category of products in question quantitative

Such arrangements or joint conclusions shall stipulate that the quantita-
tive limits agreed be administered in accordance with a double-checking system.
5. Should the parties be unable to reach a satisfactory solution
within one month following the opening of consultations and, at thelatest, within two months following notification of the request forconsultations, the Community shall have the right to introduce a defini-tive quantitative limit at an annual level not lower than the levelresulting from the application of the formula set out in paragraph 1 or
106 % of the level of imports reached during the calendar year
preceding that in which imports exceeded the level resulting from theapplication of the formula set out in paragraph 1 and gave rise to therequest for consultations, whichever is the higher.

110 % of the imports for the twelve-month period termi-nating two months, or where data is not available threemonths, preceding the month in which the request forconsultations is made,
— notwithstanding paragraph 5, the Community may decide to
renew the provisional limit for a further three-month periodpending further consultations with the supplier country.
8. The quantitative limits established pursuant to paragraphs 5 to 7
shall not apply to products which have already been dispatched to theCommunity provided that they were shipped from the supplier countryin which they originate for export to the Community before the date ofnotification of the request for consultations.
9. The measures provided for in paragraphs 3, 5 and 7 and the
arrangements referred to in paragraph 4 shall be implemented in accor-dance with the procedure laid down in Article 17.

Article 12
SpecificrulesforadministrationofCommunityquantitativelimits
1. For the purpose of applying Article 2 (2), the competent authori-
ties of the Member States, before issuing import authorizations, shall
notify the Commission of the amounts of the requests for importauthorizations, supported by original export certificates, which theyhave received. By return the Commission shall notify its confirmationthat the requested amount(s) of quantities are available for importationin the chronological order in which the notifications of the Member
States have been received (‘first come, first served’ basis). However,
in exceptional cases where there is reason to believe that anticipatedrequests for import authorizations may exceed the quantitative limits,the Commission, in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article17, may limit the amount to be allocated on the ‘first come, first
served’ basis to 90 % of the quantitative limits in question. In such
cases, as soon as this level has been reached, the allocation of theremainder shall be decided in accordance with the procedure laiddown in Article 17.
2. The requests included in the notifications to the Commission shall
be valid if they establish clearly in each case the supplier third country,the category of textile products concerned, the amounts to be imported,the number of the export licence, the quota year and the Member Statein which the products are intended to be put into free circulation.
3. Normally the notifications referred to in the previous paragraphs
of this Article shall be communicated electronically within the inte-grated network set up for this purpose, unless for imperative technical1993R3030 — EN — 01.01.1994 — 001.001 — 8
▼B
reasons it is necessary to use other means of communication tempora-
rily.
4. As far as possible, the Commission shall confirm to the authori-
ties the full amount indicated in the requests notified for each category
of products and each third country concerned. Notifications presentedby Member States for which no confirmation can be given becausethe amounts requested are no longer available within the Communityquantitative limit, will be stored by the Commission in the chronolo-gical order in which they have been received and confirmed in the
same order as soon as further amounts become available, for example
through the application of flexibilities foreseen in Article 7. Moreoverthe Commission shall contact the authorities of the supplier countryconcerned immediately in cases where requests notified exceed thequantitative limits in order to seek clarification and a rapid solution.
5. The competent authorities shall notify the Commission immedi-
ately after being informed of any quantity that is not used during the
duration of validity of the import authorization. Such unused quantitiesshall automatically be transferred into the remaining quantities of thetotal Community quantitative limit for each category of product andeach third country concerned.
6. The import authorizations or equivalent documents shall be issued
in accordance with Annex III.
7. The competent authorities of the Member States shall notify the
Commission of any cancellation of import authorizations or equivalentdocuments already issued in cases where the corresponding exportlicences have been withdrawn or cancelled by the competent authoritiesin the supplier countries. However, if the Commission or the competentauthorities of a Member State have been informed by the competent
authorities of a supplier country of the withdrawal or cancellation of
an export licence after the related products have been imported intothe Community, the quantities in question shall be set off against thequantitative limits for the year during which shipment of productstook place.
8. The Commission may, in accordance with the procedure laid
down in Article 17, take any measure necessary to implement this
Article.
Article 13
Surveillance
1. Where, in accordance with the relevant provisions of an agree-
ment, protocol or other arrangement between the Community and athird country, a system of surveillance a prioriora posteriori is intro-
duced on a category of products referred to in Annex I which is notsubject to the quantitative limits listed in Annex V, the procedures
and formalities concerning single and double checking, economic
outward processing, classification and certification of origin shall bethose laid down in Annex III and IV.
2. The categories of products and the third countries currently
subject to surveillance, in accordance with paragraph 1, are listed inthe tables in Annex III.
3. The decision to impose the surveillance system on categories of
products or on supplier countries not listed in the tables in Annex III
shall be taken in accordance with the relevant provisions regardingconsultations contained in the agreement, protocol or other arrangementwith the country in question.
Such decisions to impose the surveillance system as well as any addi-
tional measures needed to implement this system, shall be adopted inaccordance with the procedure laid down in Article 17.1993R3030 — EN — 01.01.1994 — 001.001 — 9

Article 14
Statistics
1. In respect of the textile products in Annex I, Member States shall
notify the Commission monthly, within one month of the end of eachmonth, of the total quantities imported during that month, indicatingthe combined nomenclature code and using the units and, where appro-priate supplementary units, used in that code. Imports shall be broken
down in accordance with the statistical procedures in force.
2. In order to enable market trends in the products covered by this
Regulation to be monitored, Member States shall communicate to the
Commission, before 31 March each year, statistical data on exports.
The statistical data relating to the production and consumption of eachproduct shall be forwarded under arrangements to be determined subse-quently pursuant to the procedure laid down in Article 17.
3. Where the nature of the products or particular circumstances so
require, the Commission may, at the request of a Member State or onits own initiative, alter the time limits for communicating the above-mentioned information under the procedure laid down in Article 17.
4. Member States shall notify the Commission under conditions set
in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 17, of all other
particulars deemed under that procedure to be necessary in order to
ensure compliance with the obligations agreed between the Communityand the supplier countries.
5. In the urgent cases referred to in the last subparagraph of Article
10 (3), the Member State or States concerned shall send the necessaryimport statistics and economic data to the Commission and the otherMember States by telex, telefax or other means of communicationsuch as electronics or telematics.
Article 15
Circumvention
1. Where, following the enquiries carried out in accordance with the
procedures established in Annex IV, the Commission notes that theinformation in its possession constitutes proof that products orginatingin a supplier country listed in Annex V and subject to the quantitativelimits referred to in Article 2 or introduced under Article 9 have beentranshipped, re-routed or otherwise imported into the Community
through circumvention of such quantitative limits and that there is a
need for the necessary adjustments to be made, it shall request thatconsultations be opened, in accordance with the procedure describedin Article 16, so that agreement may be reached on an equivalentadjustment of the corresponding quantitative limits.
2. Pending the outcome of the consultations referred to in paragraph
1, the Commission may ask the supplier country concerned to take thenecessary precautionary steps to ensure that adjustments to the quanti-
tative limits agreed following such consultations may be carried out for
the year in which the request for consultations was lodged or for thefollowing year, if the quantitative limits for the current year isexhausted, where there is clear evidence of circumvention.
3. If the Community and the supplier country fail to arrive at a satis-
factory solution within the period stipulated in Article 16 and if theCommission notes that three is clear evidence of circumvention, itshall, in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 17, deduct
from the quantitative limits an equivalent volume of products origi-
nating in the supplier country concerned.
4. In accordance with the provisions of the protocols and certain
bilateral agreements concluded with third countries, where sufficientevidence shows that a false declaration concerning fibre content, quan-tities, description or classification of products originating in thecountries concerned has occurred, the Community authorities mayrefuse to import the products in question.1993R3030 — EN — 01.01.1994 — 001.001 — 10
▼B
Furthermore, should it appear that the territory of any of these coun-
tries is involved in transhipment or re-routing of products notoriginating in that country, the Commission may introduce quantitative
limits against the same products originating in that same country, if
they are not already subject to quantitative limits, or it may take anyother appropriate measures.
Article 16

ANNEX IV
referred to in Article 1
Administrativecooperation
Article 1
The Commission shall supply the Member States' authorities with the names and
addresses of authorities in the supplying countries competent to issue certificates
of origin and export licences together with specimens of the stamps used by
these authorities.
Article 2
For the textile products subject to quantitative limits referred to in Article 2 of
the Regulation or to the surveillance measures with a double-checking system
referred to in Annex III, Member States shall notify the Commission within
the first 10 days of each month of the total quantities, in the appropriate units
and by country of origin and category of products, for which import authoriza-
tions have been issued during the preceding month.
Article 3
1. Subsequent verification of certificates of origin or export licences shall be
carried out at random, or whenever the competent authorities of the Community
have reasonable doubt as to the authenticity of the certificate of origin or export
licence or as to the accuracy of the information regarding the true origin of the
products in question.
In such cases the competent authorities of the Community shall return the certi-
ficate of origin or the export licence or a copy thereof to the competent
governmental authority in the supplying country concerned, giving, where
appropriate, the reasons of form or substance for an enquiry. If the invoice has
been submitted, such invoice or a copy thereof shall be attached to the certifi-
cate of origin or export licence or copy thereof. The competent authorities shall
also forward any information that has been offered suggesting that the particu-
lars given on the said certificate or the said licence are inaccurate.
2. The provisions of paragraph 1 shall also apply to subsequent verifications
of declarations of origin.
3. The results of the subsequent verifications carried out in accordance with
paragraph 1 shall be communicated to the competent authorities of the Commu-
nity within three months at the latest.
The information communicated shall indicate whether the disputed certificate,
licence or declaration applies to the goods actually exported and whether the
goods are eligible for export to the Community under this Regulation. The
competent authorities of the Community may also request copies of all docu-
mentation necessary to determine the facts fully, including, in particular, the
origin of the goods(1).
4. Should such verifications reveal abuse or major irregularities in the use of
declarations of origin, the Member State concerned shall inform the Commission
of this fact. The Commission shall pass the information on to the other Member
States.
At the request of a Member State or on the initiative of the Commission, the
Committee on Origin shall, as soon as possible and in accordance with the
procedure specified in Article 13 of Regulation (EEC) No 802/68, examine
whether it is desirable to require the production of a certificate of origin in
respect of the products and the supplying country concerned.
The decision shall be taken in accordance with the procedure specified in
Article 14 of Regulation (EEC) No 802/68.
5. Random recourse to the procedure specified in this Article shall not consti-
tute an obstacle to the release for home use of the products in question.
Article 4
1. Where the verification procedure referred to in Article 2 or where informa-
tion available to the competent authorities of the Community indicates that the1993R3030 — EN — 01.01.1994 — 001.001 — 65
(1) For the purpose of subsequent verification of certificates of origin, copies of the certi-
ficates as well as any export documents referring to them shall be kept for at least two
years by the competent governmental authority in each supplying country.
▼B
provisions of this Regulation are being contravened, the said authorities shall
request the supplier country or countries concerned to carry out appropriate
enquiries or arrange for such enquiries to be carried out concerning operations
which are or appear to be in contravention of the provisions of this Regulation.
The results of these enquiries shall be communicated to the competent authori-
ties of the Community together with any other pertinent information enabling
the true origin of the goods to be determined.
2. In pursuance of the action taken under the terms of this Annex, the compe-
tent authorities of the Community may exchange any information with the
competent governmental authorities of supplier countries which is considered
to be of use in preventing the contravention of the provisions of this Regulation.
3. Where it is established that the provisions of this Regulation have been
contravened, the Commission, acting according to the procedure laid down in
Article 17 of the Regulation, may take, with the agreement of the supplier
country or countries concerned, such measures as are necessary to prevent recur-
rence of such contravention.
Article 5
The Commission shall coordinte the actions undertaken by the competent autho-
rities of the Member States under the provisions of this Annex. The competent
authorities of the Member States shall inform the Commission and the other
Member States of actions which they have undertaken and the results obtained.1993R3030 — EN — 01.01.1994 — 001.001 — 66
