COMMISSION DECISION

of 20 December 1982

establishing that the apparatus described as 'Delco - Inertial Navigation System, model Carousel IV-A-III' may not be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties

(82/933/EEC)

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN

COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1798/75 of 10 July 1975 on the importation free of Common Customs Tariff duties of educational, scientific and cultural materials (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 608/82 (2),

Having regard to Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2784/79 of 12 December 1979 laying down provisions for the implementation of Regulation (EEC) No 1798/75 (3), and in particular Article 7 thereof,

Whereas, by letter dated 18 June 1982, the Federal Republic of Germany has requested the Commission to invoke the procedure provided for in Article 7 of Regulation (EEC) No 2784/79 in order to determine whether or not the apparatus described as 'Delco - Inertial Navigation System, model Carousel IV-A-III', ordered on 15 March 1980 and to be used for the development of methods and procedures of increasing flight safety on landing and in particular for the supply of precise position data on board of an aircraft for wind speed and thermal wind warning, should be considered as a scientific apparatus and, where the reply is in the affirmative, whether apparatus of equivalent scientific value is currently being manufactured in the Community;

Whereas, in accordance with the provisions of Article 7 (5) of Regulation (EEC) No 2784/79, a group of experts composed of representatives of all the Member States met on 22 October 1982 within the framework of the Committee on Duty-Free Arrangements to examine the matter;

Whereas this examination showed that the apparatus in question is a navigation system; whereas it does not have the requisite objective characteristics making it specifically suited to scientific research; whereas, moreover, apparatus of the same kind are principally used for non-scientific activities; whereas its use in the case in question could not alone confer upon it the character of a scientific apparatus; whereas the duty-free admission of the apparatus in question is therefore not justified,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Article 1

The apparatus described as 'Delco - Inertial Navigation System, model Carousel IV-A-III', which is the subject of an application by the Federal Republic of Germany of 18 June 1982, may not be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties.

Article 2

This Decision is addressed to the Member States.

COUNCIL DECISION of 14 June 1982 accepting on behalf of the Community the recommendation of the Customs Cooperation Council concerning customs requirements regarding commercial invoices (82/457/EEC)

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

HAS DECIDED AS FOLLOWS:

Article 1

The recommendation of the Customs Cooperation Council of 16 May 1979 concerning customs requirements regarding commercial invoices is hereby accepted on behalf of the Community with immediate effect.

For the Council

The President

P. de KEERSMAEKER

RECOMMENDATION OF THE CUSTOMS COOPERATION COUNCIL OF 16 MAY 1979 CONCERNING CUSTOMS REQUIREMENTS REGARDING COMMERCIAL INVOICES

THE CUSTOMS COOPERATION COUNCIL,

Desiring to facilitate international trade by making it possible for trade circles to employ modern methods of data reproduction and transmission,

Taking into account inter alia the efforts being made at international level to enable all the documents required for an international trade transaction to be prepared from a single master by the one-run method,

Taking into account the recommendation concerning signatures and authentication adopted in March 1979 by the Working Party on Facilitation of International Trade Procedures of the Economic Commission for Europe, which notes in particular that the general adoption of mechanical or electronic methods of data transfer requires changes in current practice regarding handwritten signatures,

Considering that the requirements of a signature on the commercial invoice for customs purposes does not afford the customs any particular guarantee of its accuracy,

RECOMMENDS THAT MEMBER STATES SHOULD: 1. accept commercial invoices produced by any process, for example the one-run method, in cases where the presentation of the commercial invoice is required in connection with the clearance of goods;

2. refrain from requiring a signature, for customs purposes, on commercial invoices presented in support of a goods declaration,

REQUESTS

Member States who accept this recommendation to notify the Secretary-General of their acceptance, of the date from which they will apply the recommendation, and of the conditions of its application. The Secretary-General will transmit this information to the customs administrations of Member States.
