payments on the current account of balance of payments to the extent 
that the transactions underlying the payments concern movements of 
goods between the Parties which have been liberalized pursuant to the 
present Agreement. 
Article 33 (Europe Agreement 63) 
With reference to the provisions of this chapter, and notwithstanding 
the provisions of Article 35, until a full convertibility of Romanian 
currency in the meaning of Article VIII of the International Monetary 
Fund is introduced, Romania may in exceptional circumstances apply 
exchange restrictions connected with the granting or taking up of short 
and medium-term credits to the extent that such restrictions are 
imposed on Romania for the granting of such credits and are permitted 
according to Romania's status under the IMF. 
Romania shall apply these restrictions in a non-discriminatory manner. 
They shall be applied in such a manner as to cause the least possible 
disruption to this Agreement. Romania shall inform the Joint 
Committee promptly of the introduction of such measures and of any 
changes therein. 
Article 34 (Europe Agreement 64) 
1. The following are incompatible with the proper functioning of the 
Agreement, in so far as they may affect trade between the Community and 
Romania : 
(i) all agreements between undertakings, decisions by associations of 
undertakings and concerted practices between undertakings which 
have as their object or effect the prevention, restriction or 
distortion of competition; 
(ii) abuse by one or more undertakings of a dominant position in the 
territories of the community or of Romania as a whole or in a 
substantial part thereof; 
(iii) any public aid which distorts or threatens to distort competition 
by favouring certain undertakings or the production of certain 
goods. 
2. Any practices contrary to this article shall be assessed on the 
basis of criteria arising from the application of the rules of Articles 
85, 86, and 92 of the Treaty establishing the European Economic 
Community. 
i) 
- 14 -
3. The Joint Committee shall, within three years of the entry into 
force of the Agreement, adopt the necessary rules for the 
implementation of Paragraphs 1 and 2. 
4.a For the purposes of applying the provisions of Paragraph 1, point 
(iii), the Parties recognize that during the first five years after the 
entry into force of the Agreement, any public aid granted by Romania 
shall be assessed taking into account the fact that Romania shall be 
regarded as an area identical to those areas of the Community described 
in article 92.3(a), of the Treaty establishing the European Economic 
Community. The Joint Committee shall, taking into account the economic 
situation of Romania , decide whether that period should be extended by 
further periods of five years. 
4.b Each party shall ensure transparency in the area of public aid, 
inter alia by reporting annually to the other party on the total amount 
and the distribution of the aid given and by providing, upon request, 
information on aid schemes. Upon request by one party, the other party 
shall provide information on particular individual cases of public aid. 
5. With regard to products referred to in chapters II and III of 
Title II : 
the provision of Paragraph 1 (iii) does not apply, 
any practices contrary to Paragraph 1 (i) should be assessed 
according to the criteria established by the Community on the 
basis of Articles 42 and 43 of the Treaty establishing the 
European Economic Community and in particular of those 
established in Council Regulation n* 26/1962. 
6. If the Community or Romania considers that a particular practice 
is incompatible with the terms of the first paragraph of this article, 
and: 
- is not adequately dealt with under the implementing rules 
referred to in Paragraph 3, or 
- in the absence of such rules, and if such practice causes or 
threatens to cause serious prejudice to the interest of the other 
Party or material injury to its domestic industry, including its 
services industry 
it may take appropriate measures after consultation within the Joint 
Committee or after thirty working days following referral for such 
consultation. 
In the case of practices incompatible with Paragraph l(iii) of this 
Article, such appropriate measures may, where the General Agreement on 
Tariffs and Trade applies thereto, only be adopted in conformity with 
the procedures and under the conditions laid down by the General 
Agreement . on Tariffs and Trade and any other relevant instrument 
negotiated under its auspices which are applicable between the Parties. 
7. Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary adopted in 
conformity with Paragraph 3, the parties shall exchange information

Trade, adopt restrictive measures, including measures relating to

Community or Romania , as the case may be, shall inform the other party 
forthwith.

Security ana Cooperation in Europe (notably entrepreneurs' freedom of 
decision) are applied in the operation of this Agreement. 
Article 37 (Europe Agreement 67) 
Romania shall continue to improve the protection of intellectual,

- for quantitative purposes, textiles products are those listed 
in Annex I to the bilateral agreement between the Community and 
Romania on trade in textile products initialled on 11 July 1986 
and applied provisionally since 1 January 1987, as amended by 
the Exchange of Letters initialled in Brussels on 20 September 
1991, and to those products listed in Table I of the Annex to 
the agreement in the form of an exchange of letters which is an 
integral part of the aforementioned bilateral agreement 
initialled on 11 July 1986; 
- for tariff purposes, textile products are those in section XI 
(chapters 50 to 63) of the Combined Nomenclature of the 
Community, and, respectively, of the Romanian Customs Tariff. 
Article 2 
Customs duties on imports applicable in the Community to textile 
products falling within section XI (chapters 50 - 63) of the 
Combined Nomenclature and originating in Romania in accordance with 
Protocol 4 of the Agreement shall be reduced in order to arrive at 
their elimination at the end of a period of six years starting

- at the start of the fourth year to three-sevenths of the basic 
duty; 
- at the start of the fifth year to two sevenths of the basic

2. Customs duties on imports applicable in Romania to textile products 
falling within section XI (chapters 50 - 63) of the Romanian 
Customs Tariff and originating in the Community in accordance with 
Protocol No. 4 of the Agreement, shall be progressively eliminated 
as provided for in Article 5 of the Agreement. 
The customs duties applicable to compensating products imported 
into the Community which originate in Romania within the meaning of 
Protocol No. 4 of the Agreement, and which result from operations 
in Romania in accordance with Council Regulation (EEC) No. 636/82, 
shall be eliminated on the date of entry into force of the 
Agreement. 
The provisions of Article 6 and Article 7 of the Agreement shall 
apply to trade in textile products between the Parties. 
Art icle 3 
From the date of entry into force of the Agreement until the entry 
into force of the Protocol referred to in paragraph 2 below, the 
quantitative arrangements and other related issues regarding 
exports of textile products originating in Romania to the Community 
shall continue to be governed by the bilateral agreement on trade 
in textile products between the Community and Romania, initialled 
on 11 July 1986 and applied provisionally since 1 January 1987, as 
amended by the Exchange of Letters initialled in Brussels on 20 
September 1991. The Parties agree to amend as necessary the 
aforementioned bilateral agreement on trade in textile products to 
take account of the Community's policy on textiles after 1 January 
1993.

textiles products originating in Romania, Article 20. paragraph 2 
and Article 25 of the Agreement shall not apply during the period 
of application of the aforementioned bilateral agreement on trade 
i n text ile products. 
Romania and the Community hereby undertake to negotiate a new 
Protocol on quantitative arrangements and other related issues on 
their trade in textile products as soon as possible, taking into 
account the future regime governing international trade in textile 
products under discussion in the multilateral negotiations in 
Geneva. The modalities and period during which non-tariff barriers 
shall be eliminated will be determined in the new Protocol. The 
period shall be equal to half the integration period to be decided 
in the Uruguay Round negotiations starting from 1 January 1994 and 
it shall not be shorter than five years starting from 1 January 
1993 or from the entry into force of the Agreement, if later. The 
new Protocol shall follow on the expiration of the agreement on 
textile products referred to in paragraph 1 above. 10 J

Taking into account the development of textile trade between the 
Parties, the degree of access of textile exports originating in 
the Community to Romania and the results of the multilateral trade 
negotiations of the Uruguay Round, provision will be made in the 
new Protocol for a substantial improvement of the regime applied 
to imports into the Community regarding import levels, growth 
rates, flexibility for quantitative limitations and elimination of 
certain quantitative limitations after a case-by-case examination. 
Notwithstanding Article 20, paragraph 2 and Article 25 of the 
Agreement, provision for a specific textiles safeguard mechanism 
shall also be made in the new Protocol. Such a mechanism shall not 
be globally more restrictive than the safeguard mechanism provided 
for in the textile Agreement referred to in paragraph 1 above. 
Quantitative restrictions and measures of equivalent effect on 
imports of Community textile products into Romania shall be 
abolished over the same period as is envisaged for the elimination 
of quantitative restrictions and measures of equivalent effect on 
imports of Romanian textile products into the community. 
Article 4 
From the entry into force of this Agreement until the entry into 
force of the new Protocol, no new quantitative restrictions or 
measures of equivalent effect shall be imposed except as provided 
for under the Agreement and its Protocols. 
DECLARATION BY THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES 
CONCERNING ARTICLE 2(3) OF PROTOCOL No 1

treatment accorded to Romania under Article 2(3) of Protocol No 1 is 
identical in its substance to that accorded under the Protocols agreed with 
Poland, Hungary and Czechoslovakia, and that in principle any amendment to 
Regulation 636/82 would apply to all the five countries of Eastern and 
Central Europe.

Chapter 3 Common provisions 
Art. 9 1. The following are incompatible with the proper functioning of the 
Agreement, in so far as they may affect trade between the 
Community and Romania. 
1. all agreements of cooperative or concentrative nature between 
undertakings, decisions by associations of undertakings and 
concerted practices between undertakings which have as their 
object or effect the prevention, restriction or distortion of 
competition; 
2. abuse by one or more undertakings of a dominant position in the 
territories of the Community or of Romania as a whole or in a 
substantial part thereof/ 
3. public aid in any form whatsoever except derogations allowed 
pursuant to the ECSC Treaty. 
2. Any practices contrary to this Article should be assessed on the 
basis of criteria arising from the application of the rules of 
articles 65-66 of the Treaty establishing the ECSC, and of articles 
85-86 of the Treaty establishing the EEC and the rules on State 
aids, including the secondary legislation. 
3. The Joint Committee shall, within three years of the entry into force 
of the Agreement, adopt the necessary rules for the implementation of 
paragraphs 1 and 2. 
4. The Contracting Parties recognise that during the first five years 
after the entry into force of the Agreement, and by derogation to 
paragraph 1 (3) of this Article, Romania may exceptionally, as 
regards ECSC steel products, grant public aid for restructuring 
purposes, provided that: 
- it leads to the viability of the benefitting firms under normal 
market conditions at the end of the restructuring period and 
- the amount and intensity of such aid are strictly limited to what 
is absolutely necessary in order to restore such viability and 
are progressively reduced; 
- the restructuring programme is linked to a global rationalising 
and reduction of capacity in Romania. 
5. Each party shall ensure transparency in the area of public aid by a 
full and continuous exchange of information to the other party, 
including amount, intensity and purpose of the aid and detailed 
restructuring plan. 
6. If the Community or Romania considers that a particular practice is 
incompatible with the terms of the first paragraph as amended by the 
fourth paragraph of this Article, and 
M9 
- is not adequately dealt with under the implementing rules referred 
to in paragraph 3 or 
- in the absence of such rules and if such practice causes or 
threatens to cause prejudice to the interests of the other party 
or material injury to its domestic industry, 
the affected party may take appropriate measures if no solution is 
found within 30 days through consultation. Such consultation shall 
be held in 30 days. 
In the case of practices incompatible with paragraph 1 (3) of this 
Article, such appropriate measures may only cover measures adopted in 
conformity with the procedures and under the conditions laid down by 
the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade and any other relevant 
instrument negotiated under its auspices which are applicable between 
the Parties. 
Art. 10 The provisions of Articles 6, 7 and 8 of the Agreement shall apply 
to trade between the partners in ECSC products.

DECLARATIONS BY THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITY 
Protocole 2 on ECSC products 
Articles 9.1.3 et 9.4 of Protocol 2 on ECSC products 
The Community confirms its understanding that public aids referred to in 
articles 9.1.3 and 9.4 are exclusively for the purposes of 
restructuring as defined, and stresses that transport subsidies acting 
as direct or indirect subsidies to the steel industry are excluded. 
Article 9.4 of Protocol 2 on ECSC products 
It is understood that the possibility of an exceptional extension of the 
five-year period is strictly limited to the particular case of Romania 
and does not impair the position of the Community in relation to other 
cases nor prejudge international commitments. The possible derogation 
foreseen in paragraph 4 takes into account the particular difficulties 
of Romania in restructuring the steel sector and the fact this process 
has been launched very recently. 1 
Declaration by the European Community 
The Community takes note of the fact that the Romanian authorities will 
not invoke the provisions of Protocol 2 on ECSC products, in particular 
Article 9, so as not to call into question the compatibility with this 
Protocol of the agreements made by the Community coal industry with the 
electricity companies and the steel industry to secure the sale of 
Community coal. U)

PROTOCOL 3 
on trade between Romania and the Community 
in processed agricultural products 
referred to in Article 1*1 of the Agreement 
Article 1 
1. The Community shall grant the tariff concessions referred to in Annex A 
to products originating in Romania. For goods for which a reduction of 
the agricultural component is provided for, in accordance with 
Article 3, such reduction shall be applicable within the quantity limits 
established in Annex B. 
2. From 1 January 1996, Romania shall grant tariff concessions determined 
in accordance with this Protocol for the processed agricultural products 
referred to in Annex C. 
3. The Association Council may: 
- add to the list of processed agricultural products referred to in 
this Protocol, 
increase the quantities of processed agricultural products eligible 
for the concessions referred to in Annex B. 
4. The Association Council may replace the concessions referred to in 
paragraph 1 with a system of compensatory amounts with no quantity 
limits, established on the basis of the differences found between the 
prices on the Community and Romanian markets of the agricultural 
products actually used to produce the processed agricultural products 
covered by this Protocol. The Association Council shall draw up a list 
of the products to which the compensatory amounts are applicable and a 
list of basic products. It shall adopt general implementing rules to 
that end. 
- 2 -
Article 2 OLZj 
For the purposes of the Articles which follow, the definitions given below 
shall apply: 
'goods': the processed agricultural products referred to in this 
Protocol, 
- 'agricultural components of the levy': the part of the levy 
corresponding to the quantity of agricultural products incorporated 
into the processed product and deducted from the levy applicable 
when such agricultural products are imported unprocessed, 
- 'non-agricultural components of the levy': the part of the levy 
remaining when the agricultural component is deducted from the 
total levy, 
- 'basic products': the agricultural products considered as having 
been used in the production of goods within the meaning of 
Regulation (EEC) No 3033/80, 
'base quantity': the quantity of a basic product calculated in the 
manner stipulated in Article 6 of Regulation (EEC) No 3033/80 which 
is used to determine the variable component applicable to goods of 
a given type, in accordance with the terms of the same Regulation. 
Article 3 
1. From the date this Agreement enters into force, the Community shall 
phase out the non-agricultural component of the levy in accordance with 
the timetable set out in Annex A. 
2. The Community shall apply to imports originating in Romania an 
agricultural component set according to the following criteria: 
(a) For the goods for which Annex A stipulates an agricultural component 
(MOB), the latter shall be identical to that applying in the case of 
third countries. 
(b) For the goods for which Annex A stipulates a reduced agricultural 
component (MOBR), the latter shall be calculated by reducing the base 
quantities of the basic products for which a levy reduction is granted 
by 20% in [1993], 40% in [1994] and 60% from 1995. In the case of other 
basic products, the corresponding reductions, for the same years, shall 
be 10, 20 and 30%. 
This reduction of the agricultural component shall be granted only 
within the limits of the tariff quotas established in Annex B; for 
quantities in excess of those quotas, the agricultural component 
applying to all third countries shall be restored. 
- 3 -
3. The agricultural component of the levy shall be determined according to 
the rules applicable to the import of processed agricultural products 
not covered by Annex II of the Treaty establishing the European 
Community, taking into account the reductions provided for in 
paragraph 2(b). 
Article 4 
1. Before 1 July 1995, Romania shall determine the agricultural component 
of the levy on the goods referred to in Annex C on the basis of the 
import duties applicable in 1995 to the basic agricultural products 
originating in the Community considered to have been used in the 
production of these goods. It shall forward that information to the 
Association Council. 
2. From the time at which the Agreement enters into force until 
31 December 1995, Romania shall apply to the goods referred to in 
Annex C the rates of duty in force on 29 February 1997. However, if 
reform of Romanian agricultural policy causes the agricultural component 
of the levy defined in Article 2 to increase, Romania shall inform the 
Association Council accordingly, and the latter may agree to an increase 
in the rate of duty concerned which corresponds to the size of the 
agricultural component. 
3. Romania shall phase out the levies applicable to the goods referred to 
in Annex C in accordance with a timetable established by the Association 
Council. Elimination of the non-agricultural component of the levy must 
be complete by 1 January 2000 at the latest. Reduction of the 
agricultural component shall be determined by the Association Council on 
the basis of the concessions applicable to the basic products. 
Article 5 
The reduction of the variable components referred to in Article 3(3) shall 
apply only from^ 
The start of the three month period (or the period of determining the 
variable components) following the entry into force of the (interim) 
Agreement.

For the purpose of implementing the Agreement, and without prejudice to the 
provisions of Articles 2 and 3 of this Protocol, the following products 
shall be considered as: 
1. products originating in the Community: 
(a) products wholly obtained in the Community, within the meaning of 
Article 4 of this Protocol; 
(b) products obtained in the Community which contain materials not 
wholly obtained there, provided that the said materials have 
undergone sufficient working or processing in the Community 
within the meaning of Article 5 of this Protocol; 
2. products originating in Romania: 
(a) products wholly obtained in Romania, within the meaning of 
Article 4 of this Protocol; 
(b) products obtained in Romania which contain materials not wholly 
obtained there, provided that the said materials have undergone 
sufficient working or processing in Romania within the meaning of 
Article 5 of this Protocol; 
Article 2 
Bilateral cumulation 
Notwithstanding Article 1(1)(b), materials originating in Romania 
within the meaning of this Protocol shall be considered as 
originating in the Community without it being necessary for those 
materials to have undergone sufficient working or processing, 
provided they have undergone working or processing going beyond that 
described in Article 5(3) of this Protocol. 
Notwithstanding Article 1(2)(b), materials originating in the 
Community within the meaning of this Protocol shall be considered as 
originating in Romania without it being necessary for those materials 
to have undergone sufficient working or processing, provided they 
have undergone working or processing going beyond that described in 
Article 5(3) of this Protocol. 
- 2 -
Article 3 
Cumulation with materials originating in Bulgaria 
1. Inasmuch as trade between the Community and Bulgaria and between 
Romania and Bulgaria is governed by agreements containing rules identical 
to those in this Protocol, the terms of paragraphs 2, 3 and 5 shall apply. 
2(a) Notwithstanding Article 1(1)(b), and without prejudice to the terms 
of paragraphs 3 and 5, materials originating in Bulgaria within the meaning 
of Protocol No 4 attached to the Agreement between the Community and 
Bulgaria shall be considered as materials originating in the Community 
without it being necessary for those materials to have undergone sufficient 
working or processing, provided they have undergone working or processing 
in the Community going beyond that described in Article 4(3) of this 
Protocol. 
(b) Notwithstanding Article 1(2)(b), and without prejudice to the terms 
of paragraphs 3 and 5, materials originating in Bulgaria within the meaning 
of Protocol No 4 attached to the Agreement between the Community and 
Bulgaria shall be considered as materials originating in Romania without it 
being necessary for those materials to have undergone sufficient working or 
processing, provided they have undergone working or processing in Romania 
going beyond that described in Article 4(3) of this Protocol. 
3. Products which have acquired the status of originating products under 
the terms of paragraph 2 shall continue to be considered as originating in 
the Community or in Romania, as appropriate, only if the value added to 
such products exceeds the value of the materials included in the product 
which originate in Bulgaria. 
If this is not the case, the products in question shall be considered 
as originating in Bulgaria for the purposes of the implementation of this 
Agreement or of the Agreement between the Community and Bulgaria. 
4. "Added value" shall be taken to be the ex works price minus the 
customs value of each of the products incorporated which did not originate 
in the country in which those products were obtained. ",(

Article 4 
Wholly obtained products 
1. Within the meaning of Article 1 (1) (a) and (2) (a), the following 
shall be considered as wholly obtained either in the Community or in 
Romania: 
(a) mineral products extracted from their soil or from their seabed; 
(b) vegetable products harvested there; 
(c) live animals born and raised there; 
(d) products from live animals raised there; 
(e) products obtained by hunting or fishing conducted there;

of the Community; 
which sail under the flag of Romania or of a Member State of the 
Community; 
which are owned to an extent of at least 50% by nationals of 
Romania or of Member States of the Community, or by a company

- 4 - "•s 
3. The terms "Romania" and "the Community" shall also cover the 
territorial waters which surround Romania and the Member States of 
the Community. 
Sea-going vessels, including factory ships on which the fish caught 
is worked or processed, shall be considered as part of the territory 
of the Community or of Romania provided that they satisfy the 
conditions set out in paragraph 2. 
Article 5 
Sufficiently processed products 
1. For the purposes of Article 1, non-originating materials are 
considered to be sufficiently worked or processed when the product 
obtained is classified in a heading which is different from that in 
which all the non-originating materials used in its manufacture are 
classified, subject to paragraphs 2 and 3. 
The expressions "chapters" and "headings" used in this Protocol shall 
mean the chapters and the headings (four-digit codes) used in the 
nomenclature which makes up the Harmonized Commodity Description and 
Coding System (hereinafter referred to as the "Harmonized System" or 
HS). 
The expression "classified" shall refer to the classification of a 
product or material under a particular heading. 
2. For a product mentioned in columns 1 and 2 of the list in Annex II, 
the conditions set out in column 3 for the product concerned must be 
fulfilled instead of the rule in paragraph 1. 
(a) Where in the list in Annex II a percentage rule is applied in 
determining the originating status of a product obtained in the 
Community or in Romania, the value added by the working or 
processing shall correspond to the ex-works price of the product 
obtained, less the value of third-country materials imported into 
the Community or Romania. 
(b) The term "value" in the list in Annex II shall mean the customs 
value at the time of the import of the non-originating materials 
used or, if this is not known and cannot be ascertained, the 
first ascertainable price paid for these materials in the 
territory concerned. 
Where the value of the originating materials used needs to be 
established, the provisions of the above subparagraph shall be 
applied mutatis mutandis. 
(c) The term "ex-works price" in the list in Annex II shall mean 
the price paid for the product obtained to the manufacturer in 
whose undertaking the last working or processing is carried 
out, provided the price includes the value of all the materials 
used in manufacture, minus any internal taxes which are, or may 
be repaid when the product obtained is exported. 
Ci 
- 5 - 'V-l 
(d) "Customs value" shall be understood as the value determined in 
accordance with the Agreement on Implementation of Article VII of 
the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade, established in Geneva 
on 12 April 1979. 
3. For the purpose of implementing paragraphs 1 and 2 the following 
shall be considered as insufficient working or processing to confer 
the status of originating products, whether or not there is a change 
of heading: 
(a) operations to ensure the preservation of products in good 
condition during transport and storage (ventilation, spreading 
out, drying, chilling, placing in salt, sulphur dioxide or other 
aqueous solutions, removal of damaged parts, and like 
operations); 
(b) simple operations consisting of removal of dust, sifting or 
screening, sorting, classifying, matching (including the making-
up of sets of articles), washing, painting, cutting up; 
(c) i) changes of packaging and breaking up and assembly of 
consignments; 
ii) simple placing in bottles, flasks, bags, cases, boxes, fixing 
on cards or boards etc., and all other simple packaging 
operations; 
(d) affixing marks, labels and other like distinguishing signs on 
products or their packaging; 
(e) simple mixing of products, whether or not of different kinds, 
where one or more components of the mixture do not meet the 
conditions laid down in this Protocol to enable them to be 
considered as originating either in the Community or in Romania; 
(f) simple assembly of parts of articles to constitute a complete 
article; 
(g) a combination of two or more operations specified in 
subparagraphs (a) to (f); 
(h) slaughter of animals. 
IS o 
- 6 -
Article 6 
Neutral elements 
In order to determine whether a product originates in the Community or in 
Romania, it shall not be necessary to establish whether the electrical 
power, fuel, plant and equipment and machines and tools used to obtain such 
product or whether any materials or products used in the course of 
production which do not enter and which were not intended to enter into the 
final composition of the product originate in third countries or not. 
Article 7 
Accessories, spare parts and tools 
Accessories, spare parts and tools dispatched with a piece of equipment, 
machine, apparatus or vehicle which are part of the normal equipment and 
included in the price thereof or are not separately invoiced are regarded 
as one with the piece of equipment, machine, apparatus or vehicle in 
question. 
Article 8 
Sets 
Sets, as defined in General Rule 3 of the Harmonized System, shall be 
regarded as originating when all component articles are originating 
products. Nevertheless, when a set is composed of originating and non-
originating articles, the set as a whole shall be regarded as originating 
provided that the value of the non-originating articles does not exceed 15% 
of ex-works price of the set. 
Article 9 
Direct transport 
1. The preferential treatment provided for under the Agreement applies 
only to products or materials which are transported between the territories 
of the Community and of Romania without entering any other territory. 
However, goods originating in Romania and constituting one single 
consignment which is not split up may be transported through territory 
other than that of the Community or Romania with, should the occasion 
arise, transhipment or temporary warehousing in such territory, provided 
that the goods have remained under the surveillance of the customs 
authorities in the country of transit or of warehousing and that they have 
not undergone operations other than unloading, reloading or any operation 
designed to preserve them in good condition. 
- 7 - 'y 
2. Evidence that the conditions referred to in paragraph 1 have been 
fulfilled shall be supplied to the responsible customs authorities by the 
production of: 
(a) a single transport document issued in the exporting country 
covering the passage through the country of transit; 
(b) or a certificate issued by the customs authorities of the country 
of transit: 
giving an exact description of the goods, 
- stating the dates of unloading and reloading of the goods or 
of the embarkation or disembarkation, identifying the ships 
or other means of transport used, and 
certifying the conditions under which the goods remained in 
the transit country; 
(c) or failing these, any substantiating documents. 
Article 10 
Territorial requirement 
The conditions set out in this Title relative to the acquisition of 
originating status must be fulfilled without interruption in the Community 
or in Romania except as provided for in Articles 2 and 3. 
If originating products exported from the Community or Romania to another 
country are returned, except in so far as provided for in Articles 2 and 3, 
they must be considered as non-originating unless it can be demonstrated to 
the satisfaction of the customs authorities that: 
the goods returned are the same goods as those exported, and 
- they have not undergone any operation beyond that necessary to 
preserve them in good condition while in that country. 
- 8 -
TITLE II 
PROOF OF ORIGIN 
Article 11 
Movement certificate EUR.l 
Evidence of originating status of products, within the meaning of this 
Protocol, shall be given by a movement certificate EUR.l, a specimen of 
which appears in Annex III to this Protocol. 
Article 12 
Normal procedure for the issue of certificates 
1. A movement certificate EUR.l shall be issued only on application 
having been made in writing by the exporter or, under the exporter's 
responsibility, by his authorized representative. Such application 
shall be made on a form, a specimen of which appears in Annex III to 
this Protocol, which shall be completed in accordance with this 
Protocol. 
Applications for movement certificates EUR.l must be preserved for at 
least two years by the customs authorities of the exporting State. 
2. The exporter or his representative shall submit with his request any 
appropriate supporting document proving that the products to be 
exported are such as to qualify for the issue of a movement 
certificate EUR.l. 
He shall undertake to submit, at the request of the appropriate 
authorities, any supplementary evidence they may require for the 
purpose of establishing the correctness of the originating status of 
the products eligible for preferential treatment and shall undertake 
to agree to any inspection of his accounts and to any check on the 
processes of the obtaining of the above products carried out by the 
said authorities. 
Exporters must keep for at least two years the supporting documents 
referred to in this paragraph. 
3. A movement certificate EUR.l may be issued only where it can serve as 
the documentary evidence required for the purpose of implementing the 
agreement. 
4. The movement certificate EUR.l shall be issued by the customs 
authorities of a Member State of the European Economic Community if 
the goods to be exported can be considered as products originating in 
the Community within the meaning of Article 1 (1) of this Protocol. 
The movement certificate EUR.l shall be issued by the customs 
authorities of Romania if the goods to be exported can be considered 
as products originating in Romania within the meaning of Article 1 
(2) of this Protocol. y\ 
- 9 - m 
5. Where the cumulation provisions of Article 2 are applied, the customs 
authorities of the Member States of the Community or of Romania may 
issue movement certificates EUR.l under the conditions laid down in 
this Protocol if the goods to be exported can be considered as 
products originating in the Community or Romania within the meaning 
of this Protocol and provided that the goods covered by the movement 
certificates EUR.l are in the Community or in Romania. 
In these cases, the movement certificates EUR.l shall be issued 
subject to the presentation of the proof of origin previously issued 
or made out. This proof of origin must be kept for at least two 
years by the customs authorities of the exporting State. 
6. Since the movement certificate EUR.l constitutes the documentary 
evidence for the application of the preferential tariff arrangements 
laid down in the Agreement, it shall be the responsibility of the 
customs authorities of the exporting country to take any steps 
necessary to verify the origin of the goods and to check the other 
statements on the certificate. 
7. For the purpose of verifying whether the conditions for issuing EUR.l 
certificates have been met, the customs authorities shall have the 
right to call for any documentary evidence or to carry out any check 
which they consider appropriate. 
8. It shall be the responsibility of the customs authorities of the 
exporting State to ensure that the forms referred to in paragraph 1 
are duly completed. In particular, they shall check whether the 
space reserved for the description of the products has been completed 
in such a manner as to exclude all possibility of fraudulent

of their being made out by the exporter.

satisfy the conditions of this Article may be made out and/or transmitted 
using telecommunications or electronic data-processing methods. Such 
invoices shall be accepted by the customs of the importing State as 
evidence of the originating status of the goods imported in accordance with 
the procedures laid down by the customs authorities there.

conditions contained in the list in Annex II but are subject instead to the 
change of heading rule set out in Article 5 (1).

goods used in that system for that heading or chapter. For each 
entry in the first two columns a rule is specified in column 3. 
Where, in some cases, the entry in the first column is preceded by an 
'ex', this signifies that the rule in column 3 applies only to the 
part of that heading or chapter as described in column 2. 
1.2 Where several heading numbers are grouped together in column 1 or a 
chapter number is given and the description of products in column 2

classified in headings of the chapter or in any of the headings 
grouped together in column 1.

2.2 The term "material" covers any ingredient, raw material, component 
or part, etc., used in the manufacture of the product. 
2.3 The term "product" refers to the product being manufactured, even if 
it is intended for later use in another manufacturing operation. 
2.4 The term "goods" covers both materials and products.

Note 3: 
3.1 In the case of any heading not in the list or any part of a heading 
that is not in the list, the "change of heading" rule set out in 
Article 4 (1) applies. If a "change of heading" condition applies to 
any entry in the list, then it is contained in the rule in column 3. 
3.2 The working or processing required by a rule in column 3 has to be 
carried out only in relation to the non-originating materials used. 
The restrictions contained in a rule in column 3 likewise apply only 
to the non-originating materials used. 
3.3 Where a rule states that "materials of any heading" may be used, 
materials of the same heading as the product may also be used, 
subject, however, to any specific limitations which may also be 
contained in the rule. However, the expression "manufacture from 
materials of any heading, including other materials of heading No..." 
means that only materials classified in the same heading as the 
product of a different description than that of the product as given 
in column 2 of the list may be used. 
3.4 If a product made from non-originating materials which has acquired 
originating status during manufacture by virture of the change of 
heading rule or its own list rule is used as a material in the 
process of manufacture of another product, then the rule applicable 
to the product in which it is incorporated does not apply to it. 
For example: 
An engine of heading No. 8407, for which the rule states that the 
value of the non-originating materials which may be incorporated may 
not exceed 40% of the ex-works price, is made from "other alloy steel 
roughly shaped by forging" of heading heading No. 7224. 
If this forging has been forged in the country concerned from a non-
originating ingot then the forging has already acquired origin by 
virtue of the rule for heading No. ex 7224 in the list. It can then 
count as originating in the value calculation for the engine 
regardless of whether it was produced in the same factory or another. 
The value of the non-originating ingot is thus not taken into account 
when adding up the value of the non-originating materials used. 
3.5 Even if the change of heading rule or the other rules contained in 
the list are satisfied, a product shall not acquire originating 
status if the processing carried out, taken as a whole, is 
insufficient within the meaning of Article 4 (3). 
3.6 The unit of qualification for the application of the origin rules 
shall be the particular product which is considered as the basic unit 
when determining classification using the nomenclature of the 
Harmonized System. In the case of sets of products which are 
classified by virtue of General Rule 3 for the interpretation of the 
Harmonized System, the unit of qualification shall be determined in 
respect of each item in the set: this provision is equally 
applicable to sets of headings Nos. 6308, 8206 and 9605. 
- 27 -»•} 
Accordingly, it follows that: 
- when a product composed of a group or assembly of articles is 
classified under the terms of the Harmonized System in a single 
heading, the whole constitutes the unit of qualification, 
- when a consignment consists of a number of identical products 
classified under the same heading of the Harmonized System, each 
product must be taken individually when applying the origin 
rules, 
where, under General Rule 5 of the Harmonized System, packing is 
included with the product for classification purposes, it shall 
be included for the purposes of determining origin. 
Note 4 
4.1 The rule in the list represents the minimum amount of working or 
processing required and the carrying out of more working or 
processing also confers originating status; conversely, the carrying 
out of less working or processing cannot confer origin. Thus if a 
rule says that non-originating material at a certain level of 
manufacture may be used, the use of such material at an earlier stage 
of manufacture is allowed and the use of such material at a later 
stage is not. 
4.2 When a rule in the list specifies that a product may be manufactured 
from more than one material, this means that any one or more 
materials may be used. It does not require that all be used. 
For example: 
The rule for fabrics says that natural fibres may be used and that 
chemical materials, among other materials, may also be used. This 
does not mean that both have to be used; one can use one or the other 
or both. 
If, however, a restriction applies to one material and other 
restrictions apply to other materials in the same rule, then the 
restrictions only apply to the materials actually used. 
For example: 
The rule for sewing machines specifies that both the thread tension 
mechanism used and the zigzag mechanism used must originate; these 
two restrictions only apply if the mechanisms concerned are actually 
incorporated into the sewing machine. 
4.3 When a rule in the list specifies that a product must be manufactured 
from a particular material, the condition obviously does not prevent 
the use of other materials which, because of their inherent nature, 
cannot satisfy the rule. 
- 28 -
For example: 
The rule for heading No. 1904 which specifically excludes the use of 
cereals or their derivatives does not prevent the use of mineral 
salts, chemicals and other additives w,h.i©h are not produced from 
cereals. 
For example: 
Ip the case of ah article made from non-woven materials, if the use 
of only non-originating yarn is allowed for this class of article, it 
is not possible to start from non-woven cloth - even if non-woven 
cloths cannot normally be made from yarn. In such cases, the 
starting material would normally be at the stage before yarn - that 
is the fibre stage, 
See also Note 7.3 in relation to textiles. 
4,4 If in a rule in the list two or more percentages are given for the 
maximum value of non-originating materials that can be used, then 
these percentages may not be added together. The maximum value of 
all the non-originating materials used may never exceed the highest 
of the percentages given. Furthermore, the individual percentages 
must not be exceeded in relation to the particular materials they 
apply to. 
Note 5 
5.1 The term "natural fibres" is used in the list to refer to fibres 
other than artificial or synthetic fibires and is restricted to the 
stages before spinning takes place, including waste, and, unless 
otherwise specified, the term "natural fibres" includes fibres that 
have been carded, combed or otherwise processed but not spun. 
5.2 The term "natural fibres" includes horsehair of heading No. 0503, 
silk of heading Nos. 5002 and 5003 as well as the wool fibres, fine 
or coarse animal hair of heading N,os. 5101 to 5105, the cotton fibres 
of heading Nos. 5201 to 5203 and the other vegetable fibres of 
heading Nos. 5301 to 5305. 
5.3 The terms "textile pulp", "chemical materials" and "paper-making 
materials" are used in the list to describe the materials not 
classified in chapters 50 to 63, which can be used to manufacture 
artificial, synthetic or paper fibres or yarns. 
5.4 The term "man-made staple fibres" is used in the list to refer to 
synthetic or artificial filament tow, staple fibres or waste, of 
headings Nos. 5501 to 5507. 
Note 6 
6.1 In the case of the products classified within those headings in the 
list to which a reference is made to this Note, the conditions set 
out in column 3 of the list shall not be applied to any basic textile 
materials used in their manufacture which, taken together, represent 
10% or less of the total weight of all the basic textile materials 
used (but see also Notes 6.3 and 6.4 below). 
- 29 - W 
6.2 However, this tolerance may only be applied to mixed products which 
have been made from two or more basic textile materials. 
The following are the basic textile materials: 
silk, 
wool, 
coarse animals hair, 
fine animal hair, 
horsehair, 
- cotton, 
paper-making materials and paper, 
flax, 
- true hemp, 
jute and other textile bast fibres, 
sisal and other textile fibres of the genus Agave, 
- coconut, abaca, ramie and other vegetable textile fibres, 
synthetic man-made filaments, 
artificial man-made filaments, 
synthetic man-made staple fibres, 
-r artificial man-made staple fibres. 
For example: 
A yarn of heading No. 5205 made from cotton fibres of heading No. 
5203 and synthetic staple fibres of heading No. 5506 is a mixed yarn. 
Therefore, non-originating synthetic staple fibres that do not 
satisfy the origin rules (which require manufacture from chemical 
materials or textile pulp) may be used up to a weight of 10% of the 
yarn. 
For example: 
A wpollen fabric of heading No. 5112 made from woollen yarn of 
heading No. 5107 and synthetic yarn of staple fibres of heading No. 
5509 is a mixed fabric. Therefore synthetic yarn which does not 
satisfy the origin rules (which require manufacture from chemical 
materials or textile pulp) or woollen yarn that does not satisfy the 
origin rules (which require manufacture from natural fibres, not 
carded or combed or otherwise prepared for spinning) or a combination 
of the two may be used up to a weight of 10% of the fabric. 
For example: 
Tufted textile fabric of heading No. 5802 made from cotton yarn of 
heading No. 5205 and cotton fabric of heading No. 5210 is only a 
mixed product if the cotton fabric is itself a mixed fabric being 
made from yarns classified in two separate headings or if the cotton 
yarns used are themselves mixtures. 
For example: 
If the tufted textile fabric concerned had been made from cotton yarn 
of heading No. 5205 and synthetic fabric of heading No. 5407, then, 
obviously, the yarns used are two separate basic textile materials 
and the tufted textile fabric is accordingly a mixed product. 
- 30 - Q\ 
For example: 
A carpet with tufts made from both artificial yarns and cotton yarns 
and with a jute backing is a mixed product because three basic 
textile materials are used. Thus, any non-originating materials that 
are at a later stage of manufacture than the rule allows may be used, 
provided their total weight taken together does not exceed 10% of the 
weight of the textile materials in the carpet. Thus, both the jute 
backing and/or the artificial yarns could be imported at that stage 
of manufacture, provided the weight conditions are met. 
6.3 In the case of fabrics incorporating 'yarn made of polyurethane 
segmented with flexible segments of polyether whether or not gimped' 
this tolerance is 20% in respect of this yarn. 
6.4 In the case of fabrics incorporating strip consisting of a core of 
aluminium foil or of a core of plastic film whether or not coated 
with aluminium powder, of a width not exceeding 5 mm, sandwiched by 
means of an adhesive between two films of plastic film, this 
tolerance is 30% in respect of this strip. 
Note 7 
7.1 In the case of those textile products which are marked in the list by 
a footnote referring to this note, textile materials with the 
exception of linings and interlinings which do not satisfy the rule 
set out in the list in column 3 for the made up products concerned 
may be used provided that they are classified in a heading other than 
that of the product and that their value does not exceed 8 % of the 
ex works price of the product. 
7.2 Any non-textile trimmings and accesories or other materials used 
which contain textiles do not have to satisfy the conditions set out 
in column 3 even though they fall outside the scope of Note 4.3. 
7.3 In accordance with Note 4.3, any non-originating non-textile 
trimmings and accessories or other product, which do not contain any 
textiles, may, anyway, be used freely where they cannot be made from 
the materials listed in column 3. 
For example: 
If a rule in the list says that for a particular textile item, such 
as a blouse, yarn must be used, this does not prevent the use of 
metal items, such as buttons, because they cannot be made from 
textile materials. 
7.4 Where a percentage rule applies, the value of trimmings and 
accessories must be taken into account when calculating the value of 
the non-originating materials incorporated.

A. Letter from the Community 
Sir, 
I have the honour to refer to the discussions concerning trade arrangements 
for certain agricultural products between the Community and Romania which 
have taken place in the framework of the negotiations for the Europe 
Agreement. 
I hereby confirm that the Community will take the necessary measures to 
ensure that Romania will get full access to the import regime for live 
bovine animals in the framework of Article 13 of Council Regulation (EEC) 
No 805/68 on the same conditions as Hungary, Poland and the CSFR from the 
entry into force of this Agreement. 
Imports of live bovine animals not covered by the estimates referred to in 
Article 13 of Council Regulation (EEC) No 805/68 and by the Europe 
Agreements with Hungary, Poland and the CSFR must be limited to calves of a 
live weight not exceeding 80 kg. 
In the event that forecasts indicate that imports into the Community could 
exceed 42 5 000 head and that such imports threaten to cause a serious 
disturbance of the Community market for beef and veal, the Community 
reserves the right to adopt appropriate management measures under Council 
Regulation (EEC) No 1157/92 and the Europe Agreements, without prejudice to 
any other right conferred upon it by the Agreement. 
I should be obliged if you would confirm that the Government of Romania is
