COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) No 2658/87

of 23 July 1987

on the tariff and statistical nomenclature and on the Common Customs Tariff







Article 1

▼M108

1. A goods nomenclature, hereinafter called the ‘Combined Nomenclature’, or in abbreviated form ‘CN’, which meets at one and the same time, the requirements of the Common Customs Tariff, the external trade statistics of the Community and other Community policies concerning the importation or exportation of goods shall be established by the Commission.

▼B

2. The combined nomenclature shall comprise: (a) the harmonized system nomenclature; (b) Community subdivisions to that nomenclature, referred to as ‘CN subheadings’ in those cases where a corresponding rate of duty is specified; (c) preliminary provisions, additional section or chapter notes and footnotes relating to CN subheadings.

▼M108

3. The Combined Nomenclature is reproduced in Annex I. The rates of duty of the Common Customs Tariff and, where applicable, the supplementary statistical units as well as other necessary information are laid down in the said Annex.

The Annex comprises the conventional rates of duty.

However, whenever autonomous rates of duty are lower than the conventional rates of duty or where conventional rates of duty do not apply, the autonomous rates are also shown in the said Annex.

Article 2

An Integrated Tariff of the European Communities, hereinafter referred to as the ‘Taric’, which meets the requirements of the Common Customs Tariff, external trade statistics, the commercial, agricultural and other Community policies concerning the importation or exportation of goods, shall be established by the Commission.

The tariff shall be based on the Combined Nomenclature and include:

(a) the measures contained in this Regulation;

(b) the additional Community subdivisions, referred to as ‘Taric subheadings’, which are needed for the implementation of specific Community measures listed in Annex II;

(c) any other information necessary for the implementation or management of the Taric codes and additional codes as defined in Article 3(2) and (3);

(d) the rates of customs duty and other import and export charges, including duty exemptions and preferential tariff rates applicable to specific goods on importation or exportation;

(e) measures shown in Annex II applicable on the importation and exportation of specific goods.

▼B

Article 3

1. Each CN subheading shall have an eight digit code number: (a) the first six digits shall be the code numbers relating to the headings and subheadings of the harmonized system nomenclature; (b) the seventh and eighth digits shall identify the CN subheadings. When a heading or subheading of the harmonized system is not further subdivided for Community purposes, the seventh and eighth digits shall be ‘00’.

▼M50

2. The Taric subheadings shall be identified by the 9th and 10th digits which, together with the code numbers referred to in paragraph 1, form the Taric code numbers. In the absence of a Community subdivision, the 9th and 10th digits shall be ‘00’.

3. Exceptionally, additional Taric codes of four characters may be used for the application of specific Community measures which are not coded, or not entirely coded, at the 9th and 10th digit level.

▼M108 —————

▼M108

Article 5

1. The Taric shall be used by the Commission and the Member States for the application of Community measures concerning importation into and exportation from the Community.

2. Taric codes and Taric additional codes shall be applied to the importation and, where applicable, to the exportation of goods covered by the corresponding subheadings.

3. Member States may add subdivisions or additional codes for national purposes. Identifying codes shall be assigned to such subdivisions or additional codes in accordance with Regulation (EEC) No 2454/93.

Article 6

The Taric shall be established, updated, managed and disseminated by the Commission, which shall, wherever possible, use computerised means. The Commission shall, in particular, take the necessary steps to:

(a) integrate all measures contained in this Regulation or shown in Annex II thereto into the Taric,

(b) attribute Taric codes and Taric additional codes,

(c) update the Taric immediately,

(d) disseminate in electronic format changes to the Taric immediately.

▼M108

Article 10

1. The Commission shall be assisted by the Customs Code Committee set up by Article 247 of Regulation (EEC) No 2913/92 ( 1 ).

2. Where reference is made to this paragraph, Articles 4 and 7 of Decision 1999/468/EC ( 2 ) shall apply.

Article 15

1. The codes and the descriptions of goods established on the basis of the combined nomenclature shall replace those established on the basis of the nomenclatures of the Common Customs Tariff and the Nimexe, without prejudice to international agreements concluded by the Community before the entry into force of this Regulation, and to acts taken in implementation thereof, which refer to the said nomenclatures.

Community acts which include the tariff or statistical nomenclature shall be amended accordingly by the Commission.

2. References to the Nimexe in the various Community acts in force shall be deemed to refer to the combined nomenclature.

Article 16

Regulations (EEC) No 950/68 and (EEC) No 97/69 are hereby repealed.

PART ONE

PRELIMINARY PROVISIONS

SECTION I

GENERAL RULES

A. General rules for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature

Classification of goods in the Combined Nomenclature shall be governed by the following principles:

1. The titles of sections, chapters and sub-chapters are provided for ease of reference only; for legal purposes, classification shall be determined according to the terms of the headings and any relative section or chapter notes and, provided such headings or notes do not otherwise require, according to the following provisions.

2. (a) Any reference in a heading to an article shall be taken to include a reference to that article incomplete or unfinished, provided that, as presented, the incomplete or unfinished article has the essential character of the complete or finished article. It shall also be taken to include a reference to that article complete or finished (or falling to be classified as complete or finished by virtue of this rule), presented unassembled or disassembled. (b) Any reference in a heading to a material or substance shall be taken to include a reference to mixtures or combinations of that material or substance with other materials or substances. Any reference to goods of a given material or substance shall be taken to include a reference to goods consisting wholly or partly of such material or substance. The classification of goods consisting of more than one material or substance shall be according to the principles of rule 3.

3. When, by application of rule 2(b) or for any other reason, goods are prima facie classifiable under two or more headings, classification shall be effected as follows: (a) the heading which provides the most specific description shall be preferred to headings providing a more general description. However, when two or more headings each refer to part only of the materials or substances contained in mixed or composite goods or to part only of the items in a set put up for retail sale, those headings are to be regarded as equally specific in relation to those goods, even if one of them gives a more complete or precise description of the goods; (b) mixtures, composite goods consisting of different materials or made up of different components, and goods put up in sets for retail sale, which cannot be classified by reference to 3(a), shall be classified as if they consisted of the material or component which gives them their essential character, in so far as this criterion is applicable; (c) when goods cannot be classified by reference to 3(a) or (b), they shall be classified under the heading which occurs last in numerical order among those which equally merit consideration.

4. Goods which cannot be classified in accordance with the above rules shall be classified under the heading appropriate to the goods to which they are most akin.

5. In addition to the foregoing provisions, the following rules shall apply in respect of the goods referred to therein: (a) camera cases, musical instrument cases, gun cases, drawing-instrument cases, necklace cases and similar containers, specially shaped or fitted to contain a specific article or set of articles, suitable for long-term use and presented with the articles for which they are intended, shall be classified with such articles when of a kind normally sold therewith. This rule does not, however, apply to containers which give the whole its essential character; (b) subject to the provisions of rule 5(a), packing materials and packing containers ( 3 ) presented with the goods therein shall be classified with the goods if they are of a kind normally used for packing such goods. However, this provision is not binding when such packing materials or packing containers are clearly suitable for repetitive use.

6. For legal purposes, the classification of goods in the subheadings of a heading shall be determined according to the terms of those subheadings and any related subheading notes and, mutatis mutandis, to the above rules, on the understanding that only subheadings at the same level are comparable. For the purposes of this rule, the relative section and chapter notes also apply, unless the context requires otherwise.

B. General rules concerning duties

1. The customs duties applicable to imported goods originating in countries which are Contracting Parties to the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade or with which the European Union has concluded agreements containing the most-favoured-nation tariff clause shall be the conventional duties shown in column 3 of the schedule of duties. Unless the context requires otherwise, these conventional duties are applicable to goods, other than those referred to above, imported from any third country. The conventional rates of duty reproduced in column 3 are applicable from 1 January 2022. When autonomous rates of duty are lower than the conventional rates of duty, the autonomous duties, shown by means of a footnote, are applicable.

2. Paragraph 1 shall not apply where special autonomous customs duties are provided for in respect of goods originating in certain countries or where preferential customs duties are applicable in pursuance of agreements.

3. Paragraphs 1 and 2 shall not preclude the Member States from applying customs duties other than those of the Common Customs Tariff where the application of such other duties is justified by the law of the European Union.

4. The duties expressed as percentage rates are ad valorem duties.

5. The symbol ‘EA’ indicates that the goods concerned are chargeable with an ‘agricultural component’ fixed in accordance with Annex 1.

6. The symbol ‘AD S/Z’ or ‘AD F/M’ in Chapters 17 to 19 indicates that the maximum rate of duty consists of an ad valorem duty plus an additional duty for certain forms of sugar or for flour. This additional duty is fixed in accordance with the provisions of Annex 1.

7. In Chapter 22, the symbol ‘€ /% vol/hl’ means that a specific duty, expressed in euro, is to be calculated for each percentage volume of alcohol per hectolitre. Thus, a beverage having an alcohol content by volume of 40 % is to be charged as follows: — ‘€ 1/% vol/hl’ = € 1 × 40, giving a duty of € 40 per hectolitre, or — ‘€ 1/% vol/hl + € 5/hl’ = € 1 × 40 plus € 5, giving a duty of € 45 per hectolitre. Where, in addition, a minimum (MIN) value is shown, for example ‘€ 1,6/% vol/hl MIN € 9/hl’, it means that the duty, calculated on the basis of the above rule, is to be compared with the minimum duty, for example ‘€ 9/hl’, and the higher of the two is to be applied.

8. Where, in Chapters 17 to 19 and 21 a maximum (MAX) value is shown, for example '(9 + EA) MAX (24,2 + AD S/Z)', it means that the duty calculated by the addition of 9 % and the 'agricultural component' (EA) may not exceed the sum of 24,2 % and the additional duty on sugar ('AD S/Z').

C. General rules applicable both to nomenclature and to duties

1. Unless provided otherwise, the provisions relating to customs value shall be applied to determine, in addition to the value for the assessment of ad valorem customs duties, the values by reference to which the scope of certain headings or subheadings is defined.

2. The dutiable weight, in the case of goods chargeable by weight, and the weights by reference to which the scope of certain headings or subheadings is defined, shall be taken to be: (a) in the case of a reference to ‘gross weight’, the aggregate weight of the goods and of all the packing materials and packing containers; (b) in the case of a reference to ‘net weight’ or simply to ‘weight’ without qualification, the weight of the goods themselves without packing materials and packing containers of any kind.

3. The equivalent in national currencies of the euro, for Member States other than participating Member States as defined in Council Regulation (EC) No 974/98 ( 4 ) (hereafter called ‘non-participating Member States’), shall be fixed in accordance with Article 53 of Regulation (EU) No 952/2013 ( 5 ) of the European Parliament and of the Council.

4. Goods eligible for favourable tariff treatment by reason of their end-use: Where the import duty applicable under the end-use arrangements to goods for a specific end-use is not lower than that which would otherwise be applicable to the goods, the said goods shall be classified in the code referring to the end-use and Article 254 of Regulation (EU) No 952/2013 shall not apply.

SECTION II

SPECIAL PROVISIONS

A. Goods for certain categories of ships, boats and other vessels and for drilling or production platforms

1. Customs duties shall be suspended in respect of goods intended for incorporation in the ships, boats or other vessels listed in the following schedule, for the purposes of their construction, repair, maintenance or conversion, and in respect of goods intended for fitting to or equipping such ships, boats or other vessels.

2.

C. Pharmaceutical products

1. Relief from customs duty is provided for pharmaceutical products of the following categories: (1) pharmaceutical substances which are covered by the CAS RN (chemical abstracts service registry numbers) and the international non-proprietary names (INNs) listed in Annex 3; (2) salts, esters and hydrates of INNs which are described by combining INNs of Annex 3 with prefixes or suffixes of Annex 4, provided such products are classifiable in the same 6-digit HS-subheadings as the relevant INN; (3) salts, esters and hydrates of INNs which are listed in Annex 5 and which are not classifiable in the same 6-digit HS-subheadings as the corresponding INNs; (4) pharmaceutical intermediates, i.e. compounds of a kind used in the manufacture of finished pharmaceutical products which are covered by the CAS RN and the chemical names, listed in Annex 6.

2. Special cases: (1) INNs cover only those substances described in the lists of recommended and proposed INNs published by the World Health Organisation (WHO). Where the number of substances covered by an INN is less than that covered by the CAS RN, only those substances covered by the INN will be subject to duty-free treatment; (2) where a product of Annex 3 or Annex 6 is identified by a CAS RN corresponding to a specific isomer, only that isomer may qualify for duty-free treatment; (3) double derivatives (salts, esters and hydrates) of INNs identified by a combination of an INN of Annex 3 with a prefix or suffix of Annex 4 qualify for duty-free treatment, provided they are classifiable in the same 6-digit HS-subheading as the relevant INN: example: alanine methyl ester, hydrochloride; (4) where an INN of Annex 3 is a salt (or an ester), no other salt (or ester) of the acid corresponding to the INN may qualify for duty-free treatment: example: oxprenoate potassium (INN): duty-free oxprenoate sodium: not duty-free. (5) where no CAS RN is indicated for a product of Annex 3 or Annex 6 (number 0-00-0), the international non-proprietary name (INN) or listed chemical name is sufficient for duty-free treatment.

D. Standard rate of duty

1. Customs duty shall be charged at the flat rate of 2,5 % ad valorem on goods: — contained in consignments sent by one private individual to another, or — contained in travellers' personal luggage, provided that such importations are not of a commercial nature. This flat-rate 2,5 % customs duty shall apply, provided that the intrinsic value of the goods subject to import duty does not exceed € 700 per consignment or per traveller. Such flat-rate assessment shall not apply to goods for which the rate of duty in the schedule of customs duties is ‘free’ and to goods of Chapter 24 which are contained in a consignment or in travellers' personal luggage in amounts exceeding those laid down in Article 27 or pursuant to Article 41 of Council Regulation (EC) No 1186/2009 of 16 November 2009 setting up a Community system of reliefs from customs duty ( 6 ).

2. Importations shall be treated as not being of a commercial nature if: (a) in the case of goods contained in consignments sent by one private individual to another, such consignments: — are of an occasional nature, — contain goods exclusively for the personal use of the consignee or his family, which do not by their nature or quantity reflect any commercial interest, — are sent to the consignee by the consignor free of payment of any kind; (b) in the case of goods contained in travellers' personal luggage, they: — are of an occasional nature, and — consist exclusively of goods for the personal use of the travellers or their families, or of goods intended as presents; the nature and quantity of such goods must not be such as might indicate that they are being imported for commercial reasons.

3. The flat rate of customs duty shall not apply to goods imported under the conditions set out in paragraphs 1 and 2 if the person entitled has, before the said flat rate is applied to them, requested that they be subject to the customs duties appropriate to them. All the goods making up the consignment shall then be subject to the import duties which are appropriate to them, without prejudice to the duty-free admission provided for pursuant to Articles 25 to 27 and 41 of Regulation (EC) No 1186/2009. For the purposes of the first subparagraph, import duties shall mean both customs duties and charges having equivalent effect and other import charges provided for under the common agricultural policy or under specific arrangements applicable to certain goods resulting from the processing of agricultural products.

4. Non-participating Member States may round off the amount in national currencies resulting from the conversion of the sum of € 700.

5. Non-participating Member States may maintain unchanged the equivalent in national currency of the sum of € 700 if, at the time of the annual adjustment provided for in Article 53 of Regulation (EU) No 952/2013 the conversion of this amount, before the rounding off provided for in paragraph 4, results in a change of less than 5 % in the equivalent in national currency, or in a reduction thereof.

E. Containers and packing materials

The following provisions are applicable to the containers and packing materials referred to in general interpretative rule 5(a) and (b) and put into free circulation at the same time as the goods which they contain or with which they are presented.

1. When the containers and packing materials are classified with the goods in accordance with the provisions of general interpretative rule 5, they shall be: (a) chargeable at the same rate of customs duty as the goods: — where such goods are subject to an ad valorem customs duty, or — where they are to be included in the dutiable weight of the goods; (b) admitted free of customs duties: — where the goods are free of customs duty, or — where the goods are dutiable otherwise than by reference to weight or value, or — where the weight of the containers and packing materials is not to be included in the dutiable weight of the goods.

2. Where containers and packing materials covered by the provisions of paragraph 1(a) and (b) contain or are presented with goods of several different tariff descriptions, the weight and value of the containers and packing materials shall, for the purpose of determining their dutiable weight or value, be apportioned among all the goods contained, in proportion to the weight or value of those goods.

F. Favourable tariff treatment by reason of the nature of the goods

1. Under certain conditions, favourable tariff treatment by reason of the nature of the goods is provided for: — goods unfit for consumption, — seeds, — bolting cloth, not made up, — certain types of fresh table grapes, tobacco and nitrate. These goods are covered by subheadings ( 7 ) with a footnote reference in the following terms: ‘Entry under this subheading is subject to the conditions laid down in section II, paragraph F, of the preliminary provisions.’ or ‘This favourable tariff treatment is subject to compliance with the formalities and conditions laid down in section II, paragraph F, of the preliminary provisions’.

2. Goods unfit for consumption for which favourable tariff treatment is granted by reason of their nature are listed in Annex 8 by reference to the heading under which they are classified together with the description and the quantities of the denaturants used. Such goods are presumed to be unfit for consumption when the goods to be denatured and the denaturants are homogeneously mixed and their separation is economically not viable.

3. The goods listed below shall be classified in the appropriate headings for seed or for sowing, provided that the goods comply with the relevant provisions of the European Union: — for sweetcorn, spelt, hybrid maize, rice and sorghum (Council Directive 66/402/EEC ( 8 )), — for seed potatoes (Council Directive 2002/56/EC of 13 June 2002 ( 9 )), — for oil seeds and oleaginous fruits (Council Directive 2002/57/EC of 13 June 2002 ( 10 )). When hybrid sweetcorn, spelt, hybrid maize, rice, hybrid sorghum or oil seeds and oleaginous fruits are of a kind to which the agricultural provisions do not apply, favourable tariff treatment by reason of their nature shall be granted, provided that it is established that the goods are actually intended for sowing.

4. Bolting cloth, not made up, is granted favourable tariff treatment on the condition that the goods are indelibly marked in a way identifying them as being intended for bolting or similar industrial purposes.

5. Fresh table grapes, tobacco and nitrate are granted favourable tariff treatment on production of a duly endorsed certificate. The particular provisions to be applied and the model of the certificates are set out at Annex 9.

Where carcases are imported without the heads, the latter must have been separated from the carcase at the atloido-occipital joint. When imported without the feet, the latter must have been cut off at the carpo-metacarpal or tarso-metatarsal joints; ‘carcase’ includes the front part of the carcase comprising all the bones and the scrag, neck and shoulder, having more than 10 pairs of ribs; (b) ‘half-carcases of bovine animals’, for the purposes of subheadings 0201 10 and 0202 10 : the product resulting from the symmetrical division of the whole carcase through the centre of each cervical, dorsal, lumbar and sacral vertebra and through the centre of the sternum and of the ischio-pubic symphysis; ‘half-carcase’ includes the front part of the half-carcase comprising all the bones and the scrag, neck and shoulder, having more than 10 ribs; (c) ‘compensated quarters’, for the purposes of subheadings 0201 20 20 and 0202 20 10 : portions composed of either: — forequarters comprising all the bones and the scrag, neck and shoulder, and cut at the tenth rib; and hindquarters comprising all the bones and the thigh and sirloin, and cut at the third rib, or — forequarters comprising all the bones and the scrag, neck and shoulder, and cut at the fifth rib, with the whole of the flank and breast attached; and hindquarters comprising all the bones and the thigh and sirloin, and cut at the eighth cut rib. The forequarters and the hindquarters constituting ‘compensated quarters’ must be presented to customs at the same time and in equal numbers, and the total weight of the forequarters must be the same as that of the hindquarters; however, a difference between the weights of the two parts of the consignment is allowed, provided that this does not exceed 5 % of the weight of the heavier part (forequarters or hindquarters); (d) ‘unseparated forequarters’, for the purposes of subheadings 0201 20 30 and 0202 20 30 : the front part of a carcase, comprising all the bones and the scrag, neck and shoulder, with a minimum of four pairs of ribs and a maximum of 10 pairs of ribs (the first four pairs of ribs must be whole, the others may be cut), with or without the thin flank; (e) ‘separated forequarters’, for the purposes of subheadings 0201 20 30 and 0202 20 30 : the front part of a half-carcase, comprising all the bones and the scrag, neck and shoulder, with a minimum of four ribs and a maximum of 10 ribs (the first four ribs must be whole, the others may be cut), with or without the thin flank; (f) ‘unseparated hindquarters’, for the purposes of subheadings 0201 20 50 and 0202 20 50 : the rear part of a carcase comprising all the bones and the thigh and sirloin, including the fillet, with a minimum of three pairs of whole or cut ribs, with or without the shank and with or without the thin flank; (g) ‘separated hindquarters’, for the purposes of subheadings 0201 20 50 and 0202 20 50 : the rear part of a half-carcase, comprising all the bones and the thigh and sirloin, including the fillet, with a minimum of three whole or cut ribs, with or without the shank and with or without the thin flank; (h) 1. ‘crop’ and ‘chuck and blade’ cuts, for the purposes of subheading 0202 30 50 : the dorsal part of the forequarter, including the upper part of the shoulder, obtained from a forequarter with a minimum of four ribs and a maximum of 10 ribs by a cut along a straight line through the point where the first rib joins the first sternal segment to the point of reflection of the diaphragm on the tenth rib; 2. ‘brisket’ cut, for the purposes of subheading 0202 30 50 : the lower part of the forequarter, comprising the brisket navel end and the brisket point end. B. Products covered by additional notes 1(A)(a) to (g) to this chapter may be presented with or without the vertebral column. C. In determining the number of whole or cut ribs referred to in additional note 1(A), only those attached to the vertebral column are to be taken into consideration. If the vertebral column has been removed, only the whole or cut ribs which otherwise would have been directly attached to the vertebral column are to be taken into consideration.

2. A. The following expressions have the meanings hereby assigned to them: (a) ‘carcases or half-carcases’, for the purposes of subheadings 0203 11 10 and 0203 21 10 : slaughtered pigs, in the form of carcases of domestic swine which have been bled and eviscerated and from which the bristles and hooves have been removed. Half-carcases are derived from whole carcases by division through each cervical, dorsal, lumbar and sacral vertebra, through or along the sternum and through the ischio-pubic symphysis. These carcases or half-carcases may be with or without head, with or without the chaps, feet, flare fat, kidneys, tail or diaphragm. Half-carcases may be with or without spinal cord, brain or tongue. Carcases and half-carcases of sows may be with or without udders (mammary glands); (b) ‘hams’ (legs), for the purposes of subheadings 0203 12 11 , 0203 22 11 , 0210 11 11 and 0210 11 31 : the posterior (caudal) part of the half-carcase, including bones, with or without the foot, shank, rind or subcutaneous fat. The ham (leg) is separated from the rest of the half-carcase, so that it includes, at most, the last lumbar vertebra; (c) ‘fore-ends’, for the purposes of subheadings 0203 19 11 , 0203 29 11 , 0210 19 30 and 0210 19 60 : the anterior (cranial) part of the half-carcase without the head, with or without the chaps, including bones, with or without foot, shank, rind or subcutaneous fat. The fore-end is separated from the rest of the half-carcase, so that it includes, at most, the fifth dorsal vertebra. The upper (dorsal) part of the fore-end, whether or not containing the blade-bone and attached muscles (neck-end in fresh or collar in salted condition), is considered a cut of the loin, when it is separated from the lower (ventral) part of the fore-end, at most by a cut just below the vertebral column; (d) ‘shoulders’, for the purposes of subheadings 0203 12 19 , 0203 22 19 , 0210 11 19 and 0210 11 39 : the lower part of the fore-end whether or not containing the blade-bone and attached muscles, including bones, with or without foot, shank, rind or subcutaneous fat. The blade-bone and attached muscles, presented separately, remain classified in this subheading as a part of the shoulder; (e) ‘loins’, for the purposes of subheadings 0203 19 13 , 0203 29 13 , 0210 19 40 and 0210 19 70 : the upper part of the half-carcase, extending from the first cervical vertebra to the caudal vertebrae, including bones, with or without the tenderloin, blade-bone, subcutaneous fat or rind. The loin is separated from the lower part of the half-carcase by a cut just below the vertebral column; (f) ‘bellies’, for the purposes of subheadings 0203 19 15 , 0203 29 15 , 0210 12 11 and 0210 12 19 : the lower part of the half-carcase situated between the ham (leg) and the shoulder, commonly known as ‘streaky’, with or without bones, but with the rind and the subcutaneous fat; (g) ‘bacon sides’, for the purposes of subheading 0210 19 10 : the pig half-carcase without the head, cheek, chap, feet, tail, flare fat, kidney, tenderloin, blade-bone, sternum, vertebral column, pelvic bone and diaphragm; (h) ‘spencers’, for the purposes of subheading 0210 19 10 : the bacon side without the ham, whether or not boned; (ij) ‘three-quarter sides’, for the purposes of subheading 0210 19 20 : the bacon side without the fore-end, whether or not boned; (k) ‘middles’, for the purposes of subheading 0210 19 20 : the bacon side without the ham and the fore-end, whether or not boned. The subheading also includes cuts of middles containing tissue of loin and belly in natural proportion to the entire middles. B. The parts of the cuts defined in paragraph 2(A)(f) fall in the same subheadings, only if they contain rind and subcutaneous fat. If the cuts falling in subheadings 0210 11 11 , 0210 11 19 , 0210 11 31 , 0210 11 39 , 0210 19 30 and 0210 19 60 are derived from a bacon side from which the bones indicated under paragraph 2(A)(g) have already been removed, the lines of cutting must follow those defined under paragraph 2(A)(b), (c) and (d) accordingly; in any case, these cuts or parts thereof must contain bones. C. Subheadings 0206 49 00 and 0210 99 49 , include, in particular, heads or halves of heads of domestic swine, with or without the brains, cheeks or tongues, and parts thereof. The head is separated from the rest of the half-carcase as follows: — by a straight cut parallel to the cranium; or — by a cut parallel to the cranium up to the level of the eyes and then inclined to the front of the head, thereby causing the chaps to remain attached to the half-carcase. The cheeks, snouts and ears as well as the meat attached to the head, particularly to the rear part, are considered parts of heads. However, the cuts of boneless meat of the fore-end, presented alone (jowls, chaps, or chaps and jowls together), fall in subheading 0203 19 55 , 0203 29 55 , 0210 19 50 or 0210 19 81 , as the case may be. D. For the purposes of subheadings 0209 10 11 and 0209 10 19 , ‘subcutaneous pig fat’ has the meaning of the fatty tissue which accumulates under the rind of the pig and adheres to it, irrespective of the part of the pig from which it comes; in any case, the weight of the fatty tissue must exceed the weight of the rind. These subheadings also include subcutaneous pig fat from which the rind has been removed. E. For the purposes of subheadings 0210 11 31 , 0210 11 39 , 0210 12 19 and 0210 19 60 to 0210 19 89 , products in which the water/protein ratio in the meat (nitrogen content × 6,25) is 2,8 or less is considered as ‘dried or smoked’. The nitrogen content is determined in accordance with ISO method 937-1978.

3. A. For the purposes of heading 0204 , the following expressions have the meanings hereby assigned to them: (a) ‘carcases’, for the purposes of subheadings 0204 10 , 0204 21 , 0204 30 , 0204 41 , 0204 50 11 and 0204 50 51 : whole carcases of the slaughtered animals after having been bled, eviscerated and skinned, imported with or without the heads, with or without the feet and with or without the other offals attached. Where carcases are imported without the heads, the latter must have been separated from the carcase at the atloido-occipital joint. When imported without the feet, the latter must have been cut off at the carpo-metacarpal or tarso-metatarsal joints; (b) ‘half-carcases’, for the purposes of subheadings 0204 10 , 0204 21 , 0204 30 , 0204 41 , 0204 50 11 and 0204 50 51 : the product resulting from the symmetrical division of the whole carcase through the centre of each cervical, dorsal, lumbar and sacral vertebra and through the centre of the sternum and of the ischio-pubic symphysis; (c) ‘short-forequarters’, for the purposes of subheadings 0204 22 10 , 0204 42 10 , 0204 50 13 and 0204 50 53 : the anterior part of the carcase, with or without the breast, including all the bones and the shoulders, scrag and middle neck, cut at right angles to the backbone, with a minimum of five and a maximum of seven pairs of whole or cut ribs; (d) ‘short-forequarters’, for the purposes of subheadings 0204 22 10 , 0204 42 10 , 0204 50 13 and 0204 50 53 : the anterior part of the half-carcase, with or without the breast, including all the bones and the shoulder, scrag and middle neck, cut at right angles to the backbone, with a minimum of five and a maximum of seven whole or cut ribs; (e) ‘chines and/or best ends’, for the purposes of subheadings 0204 22 30 , 0204 42 30 , 0204 50 15 and 0204 50 55 : the remaining part of the carcase after the legs and short-forequarters have been removed, with or without the kidneys; the chines, when separated from the best ends, must include a minimum of five lumbar vertebrae; the best ends, when separated from the chines, must include a minimum of five pairs of whole or cut ribs; (f) ‘chine and/or best end’, for the purposes of subheadings 0204 22 30 , 0204 42 30 , 0204 50 15 and 0204 50 55 : the remaining part of the half-carcase after the legs and short-forequarters have been removed, with or without the kidney; the chine, when separated from the best end, must include a minimum of five lumbar vertebrae; the best end, when separated from the chine, must include a minimum of five whole or cut ribs; (g) ‘legs’, for the purposes of subheadings 0204 22 50 , 0204 42 50 , 0204 50 19 and 0204 50 59 : the rear part of the carcase, comprising all the bones and the legs and cut at right angles to the backbone at the sixth lumbar vertebra just under the ilium or at the fourth sacral vertebra through the ilium anterior to the ischio-pubic symphysis; (h) ‘legs’, for the purposes of subheadings 0204 22 50 , 0204 42 50 , 0204 50 19 and 0204 50 59 : the rear part of the half-carcase comprising all the bones and the leg cut at right angles to the backbone at the sixth lumbar vertebra just under the ilium or at the fourth sacral vertebra through the ilium anterior to the ischio-pubic symphysis. B. In determining the number of whole or cut ribs referred to in paragraph 3 A, only those attached to the backbone are to be taken into consideration.

CHAPTER 3

FISH AND CRUSTACEANS, MOLLUSCS AND OTHER AQUATIC INVERTEBRATES

Notes

1. This chapter does not cover:

(a) mammals of heading 0106 ;

(b) meat of mammals of heading 0106 (heading 0208 or 0210 );

(c) fish (including livers, roes and milt thereof) or crustaceans, molluscs or other aquatic invertebrates, dead and unfit or unsuitable for human consumption by reason of either their species or their condition (Chapter 5); flours, meals or pellets of fish or of crustaceans, molluscs or other aquatic invertebrates, unfit for human consumption (heading 2301 ); or

(d) caviar or caviar substitutes prepared from fish eggs (heading 1604 ).

2. In this chapter, the term ‘pellets’ means products which have been agglomerated either directly by compression or by the addition of a small quantity of binder.

3. Headings 0305 to 0308 do not cover flours, meals and pellets, fit for human consumption (heading 0309 ).

Additional notes

1. For the purposes of subheadings 0305 32 11 and 0305 32 19 , cod fillets (Gadus morhua, Gadus ogac, Gadus macrocephalus) having a total salt content by weight of 12 % or more which are fit for human consumption without further industrial processing, are considered to be salted fish.

However, frozen cod fillets which have a total salt content by weight of less than 12 % are to be classified under subheadings 0304 71 10 and 0304 71 90 , in so far as the actual and lasting preservation depends essentially upon freezing.

2. For the purposes of the subheadings referred to in the third paragraph, the term ‘fillets’ includes ‘loins’, i.e. the strips of meat constituting the upper or lower, right or left, side of a fish insofar as the head, guts, fins (dorsal, anal, caudal, ventral, pectoral) and bon
