COMMISSION  DECISION 

on the conclusion on behalf of the European Coal and Steel Community and the European 
Atomic Energy Community of the Agreement on free trade and trade-related matters 
between the European Community, the European Atomic Energy Community and the 
European Coal and Steel Community, of the one part, and the Republic of Latvia, of the 
other. 

EXPLANATORY  MEMORANDUM 

1.  The  attached  proposals  for  a  Council  and  Commission  Decision  constitute  the  legal 
instruments  for  the  conclusion  of  the  Free  Trade  Agreements  between  the  European 
Community,  the  European  Atomic  Energy  Community  and  the  European  Coal  and 
Steel  Community,  on  the  one  hand,  and  with  each  of  the  Baltic  states,  i.e.  Estonia, 
Latvia and Lithuania, on the other. 

2.  Estonia's,  Latvia's  and  Lithuania's  relations  with  the  European  Union  are  covered  by 
Agreements  on Trade and Commercial  and Economic  Cooperation  which entered  into 
force  in  February/March  1993.  As  a  response  to  the  demands  of  the  three  Baltic 
countries  the  European  Council  in  Copenhagen  invited  the  Commission  to  submit 
proposals  for  developing  the  Trade  and  Cooperation  Agreements  into  free  trade 
agreements. 

Following  the  Council's  adoption  of  the  negotiating  directives  on  7  February  1994, 
negotiations  were  opened  with  Latvia  on  21  February  1994,  with  Estonia  on  23 
February  1994  and  with  Lithuania  on  28  February  1994.  The  Agreements  were 
initialled  with  Latvia  on  20  June  1994,  with  Lithuania  on  27  June  1994  and  with 
Estonia on  13 July 1994. 

3.  The  Free  Trade  Agreements  modify  the  Agreements  on  Trade  and  Commercial  and 

Economic Cooperation insofar as the trade provisions of the latter are rescinded. 

4.  The structure of the three Agreements is very similar and is based on the models of the 
Interim  Agreements  which  were  concluded  with  six  associated  central  and  eastern 
European countries. 

The Free Trade Agreements comprise the following elements: 

- Human rights clause  and  encouragement  for  regional  cooperation  among  the  Baltic 

countries 

- Preferential  Agreements.  Establishment  of  a  free  trade  zone  on  industrial  products. 
With  all  three  countries  the  EU  eliminates  all  import  and  export  duties  and 
quantitative restrictions upon entry into force  of the Agreement  whilst the regimes  of 
the  three  Baltics  differ.  Estonia,  which  does  apply  practically  not  any  trade 
restrictions, grants reciprocity upon entry into force.  Latvia and Lithuania will abolish 
all trade restrictions for  most  products upon entry into  force  of  the  Agreements,  but 
for  sensitive  products  Latvia  will  maintain  export  and  import  restrictions  for  up  to 
four and Lithuania for up to six years; 

- Trade  in  textile  products  will  be  ruled  by  specific  provisions.  Concerning  tariff 
aspects,  the  EU  has  granted  Latvia  and Lithuania  consolidation  of  the  GSP  regime 
while  Estonia  will  benefit  from  zero  tariffs  for  all  textile  products.  Quantitative 
aspects are governed by protocols: with Estonia a protocol  was concluded  during the 
free trade negotiations; with Latvia and Lithuania  the  existing  agreements  have  been 
taken over as Protocols. 

- Concessions  by  both  Parties  on  sensitive  products  such  as  agricultural,  processed 
agricultural and fisheries products are covered by separate Annexes and Protocols; 

4* 

-Rules  of  origin  and  customs  cooperation  provisions  are  covered  by  separate 

Protocols; 

- The Joint  Committee  established  by the  existing  trade  and cooperation  agreements 

will perform the duties assigned to it by the free trade agreements; 

The Agreements will enter into force on 1 January 1995. 

5.  The  procedures  for  signing  and concluding  the  Agreements  differ  between  the EC, 

EAECandECSC. 

The Agreement will be concluded as follows: 

- the Council,  after consulting Parliament, will conclude the Agreements on behalf of 
the  EC  under  Article  228,  paragraphs  2  and  3,  first  indent,  in  conjunction  with 
Article 113 of the EC Treaty, by adopting the Decision contained in annex; 

- the Council will approve the Agreements in accordance with the second paragraph of 
Article  101  of  the  Euratom  Treaty.  The  Commission  will  then  conclude  the 
Agreements (on behalf of the European Atomic Energy Community); 

- the Commission will conclude the Agreements on behalf of the ECSC by adopting the 
Decisions contained in annex in accordance with Article 95 of the ECSC Treaty, with 
the unanimous assents of the Council and following consultations of the Consultative 
Committee. 

6.  The Commission accordingly asks the Council to adopt the attached proposals for its 

decisions and to give its assents to the attached draft Commission decisions.

Article 25 

Where compliance with the provisions of Articles 8 and  19 leads to: 

(i)  re-export towards a third country against which the exporting Party maintains, for the 
product  concerned, quantitative export  restrictions, export  duties or measures having 
equivalent  effect; 

or 

(ii) a serious shortage, or threat thereof, of a product essential to the exporting Party, 

and  where the  situations  referred  to  above  give  rise,  or  are  likely to  give rise to  major 
difficulties  for  the  exporting  Party,  that  Party  may  take  appropriate  measures under  the 
conditions and in accordance with the procedures  laid down  in Article 27. The measures 
shall  be  non-discriminatory  and  be  eliminated  when  conditions  no  longer  justify  their 
maintenance. 

Article 26 

The  Member  States  of  the  European  Union  (hereinafter  referred  to  as  "the  Member 
States")  and  Latvia  shall  progressively  adjust  any  State  monopolies  of  a  commercial 
character so as to ensure that, by the end of the fourth year following the entry into  force 
of  this  Agreement,  no  discrimination  regarding  the  conditions  under  which  goods  are 
procured and marketed exists between nationals of the Member States and of Latvia. The 
Joint Committee will be informed about the measures adopted to implement this objective. 

Article 27 

1.  In the event of the Community or Latvia subjecting  imports of products liable to give 
rise  to the difficulties  referred to in Article 24 to an administrative procedure having as 
its  purpose  the  rapid  provision  of  information  on  the  trend  of  trade  flows,  it  shall 
inform the other Party. 

2.  In the cases specified  in Articles 23, 24 and  25, before  taking the measures  provided 
for  therein  or,  in  cases  to  which  paragraph  3  (d)  applies,  as  soon  as  possible,  the 
Community  or  Latvia,  as the case may be,  shall  supply  the Joint  Committee with all 
relevant information with a view to seeking a solution acceptable to the two Parties. 

In the  selection  of  measures,  priority  must  be given  to  those  which  least  disturb  the 
functioning  of this Agreement. 

The safeguard  measures shall be notified  immediately to the Joint Committee and shall 
be the  subject  of periodic  consultations  within  that  body,  particularly  with  a  view  to 
establishing a timetable for their abolition as soon as circumstances permit.

3.  For the implementation of paragraph 2, the following provisions shall apply: 

(a)  As regards Article 24, the difficulties  arising from the situation referred to in that 
Article shall be referred for examination to the Joint Committee,  which may take 
any decision needed to put an end to such difficulties. 

If the Joint Committee or the exporting Party has not taken a decision putting an 
end to the difficulties  or no other satisfactory solution has been reached within 30 
days of the matter being referred, the importing  Party may adopt the appropriate 
measures to  remedy the  problem.  These  measures  must  not  exceed  the  scope  of 
what is necessary to remedy the difficulties  which have arisen. 

(b)  As regards Article 23, the Joint Committee shall be informed of the dumping case 
as soon as the authorities of the importing Party have initiated an investigation.  If 
no end has been put to the dumping or if no  other satisfactory  solution has been 
reached within 30  days of  the matter being  referred  to  the Joint  Committee,  the 
importing Party may adopt the appropriate measures. 

(c)  As regards Article 25, the difficulties  arising from the situations referred to in that 

Article shall be referred for examination to the Joint Committee. 

The  Joint  Committee  may  take  any  decision  needed  to  put  an  end  to  the 
difficulties.  If it has not taken such a decision within 30  days of the matter being 
referred  to  it,  the  exporting  Party  may  apply  appropriate  measures  on  the 
exportation of the product concerned. 

(d)  Where  exceptional  circumstances  requiring 

immediate  action  make  prior 
information  or  examination,  as  the  case  may  be,  impossible,  the  Community  or 
Latvia whichever  is  concerned  may,  in the  situations  specified  in  Article  23,  24 
and 25, apply forthwith the precautionary measures strictly necessary to deal with 
the situation. 

Article 28 

Protocol  3  lays down  rules of origin for the  application  of  the tariff  preferences  provided 
for in this Agreement as well as the methods of administrative cooperation therewith. 

Article 29 

This  Agreement  shall  not  preclude  prohibitions  or  restrictions  on  imports,  exports  or 
goods in transit justified  on grounds of public morality, public policy or public security; the 
protection  of  health  and  life  of  humans,  animals  or  plants;  the  protection  of  national 
treasures  of  artistic,  historic  or  archaeological  value  or  the  protection  of  intellectual, 
industrial and commercial  property or rules relating to  gold  and silver.  Such  prohibitions 
or  restrictions  shall  not,  however,  constitute  a  means  of  arbitrary  discrimination  or  a 
disguised restriction on trade between the Parties. 

^ 

11 

Article 30 

Protocol 4 lays down the specific provisions to  apply to trade between Latvia  of the one 
part  and  Spain and Portugal  of the other part,  and it will be valid  until the 31 December 
1995. 

TITLE HI 

PAYMENTS, COMPETITION AND O THER ECONOMIC PROVISIONS 

Article 31 

The  Parties  undertake to  authorise,  in freely convertible  currency,  any  payments  on  the 
current  account  of balance of payments to the  extent  that  the transaction  underlying the 
payments concerns movements of goods between the Parties which have been  liberalised 
pursuant to the present Agreement. 

Article 32 

1.  The following  are incompatible with the proper functioning  of this Agreement,  insofar 

as they may affect  trade between the Community and Latvia: 

i) 

ii) 

iii) 

2. 

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; 

abuse by one or more undertakings of a  dominant  position  in the territories  of the 
Community or of Latvia as a whole or in a substantial part thereof; 

any  public  aid,  which  distorts  or  threatens  to  distort  competition  by  favouring 
certain undertakings or the production of certain goods. 

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 or, for products covered  by the ECSC Treaty, 
on  the  basis  of  corresponding  rules  of  the  ECSC  Treaty  including  secondary 
legislation. 

3. 

The  Joint  Committee  shall,  within  three  years  of  the  entry  into  force  of  this 
Agreement,  adopt  by  decision  the  necessary  rules  for  the  implementation  of^ 
paragraphs  1  and 2. 

Until these rules are adopted, the provisions of this Agreement on interpretation and 
application of Articles VI, XVI and XXIII of the General  Agreement  on Tariffs  and 
Trade shall be applied as the rules for the implementation of paragraphs  1  point (iii) 
and related parts of paragraph 2. 

^ 

12 

4.a)  For the purposes  of applying the  provisions  of  paragraph  1 point  (iii), the Parties 
recognise that during the first five years after the entry into force of this Agreement, 
any public aid granted by Latvia shall be assessed taking into account  the fact  that 
Latvia  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 Latvia, decide whether that period  should be extended by further  periods of five 
years. 

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  point (iii) does not apply, 
any practices contrary to paragraph  1 point (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 No 26/1962. 

6. 

If the Community or Latvia 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  interests  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 30 working days following referral for such consultation. 

In the case of practices incompatible with paragraph  1 point  (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  taking into account  the limitations imposed 
by the requirements of professional  and business secrecy. 

1^ 

13 

Article 33 

1.  The Parties shall endeavour to  avoid the imposition  of restrictive measures including 
measures relating to  imports for balance of payments purposes.  In the  event  of their 
introduction, the Party having introduced the same shall present to the other Party as 
soon as possible, a time schedule for their removal. 

2.  Where  one  or  more  Member  States  or  Latvia  is  in  serious  balance  of  payments 
difficulties,  or under imminent  threat  thereof,  the  Community  or Latvia,  as the  case 
may  be,  may,  in  accordance  with  the  conditions  established  under  the  General 
Agreement  on  Tariffs  and  Trade,  adopt  restrictive  measures,  including  measures 
relating to imports, which shall be of limited duration and may not go beyond what is 
necessary to remedy the balance of payments situation.  The Community or Latvia, as 
the case may be, shall inform the other Party forthwith. 

Article  34 

With regard to  public undertakings,  and undertakings  to  which  special  or exclusive rights 
have been granted, the Joint Committee shall ensure that as from the fourth year following 
the date of entry into force of this Agreement,  the principles of the Treaty establishing the 
European Economic Community,  notably Article 90, and the relevant CSCE principles, in 
particular entrepreneurs' freedom of decision, are upheld. 

Article 35 

1.  The  Parties  commit  themselves  to  developing  customs  cooperation  in  order  to 
achieve the approximation of Latvia's customs system to that of the Community. 

2.  Cooperation shall include the following  in particular: 

- the exchange of information; 
- the organisation of seminars and placements; 
- the  introduction  of  the  single  administrative  document  and  the  interconnection 

between the transit system of the Community and that of Latvia; 

- the  simplification  of  the  inspections  and  formalities  in  respect  of  the  carriage  of 

goods; 

- exchange of information on the methods of investigation. 
Technical assistance shall be provided where appropriate and required. 

3.  The  Parties  will  provide  mutual  administrative  assistance  in  accordance  with  the-

provisions of Protocol  5. 

Article 36 

1.  The Parties recognise that an important condition  for the establishment  of free trade 
between  Latvia  and  the  Community  and  the  further  economic  integration  of  the 
former  into  the  Community  is  the  approximation  of  Latvia's  existing  and  future 
legislation to that of the Community.  Latvia  shall  endeavour to  ensure that  its trade 
and  trade-related  legislation  will  be  gradually  made  compatible  with  that  of  the 
Community. 

^ 

14 

2.  The  approximation  of  laws  shall  extend  to  trade-related  matters,  in  particular 
dumping,  rules  on  competition,  customs  legislation,  statistics,  technical  rules  and 
standards. 

3.  The  Community  shall  provide  Latvia  with 

technical  assistance 

for 

the 

implementation of these measures, which may include La.: 
- the exchange of experts; 
- the provision of early information especially on relevant legislation; 
- organisation of seminars; 
- training activities; 
- aid for the translation of legislation in the relevant sectors; 
-aid for improving customs procedures and statistics; 
-aid for trade-related legislation in the context of approximation of Latvia's 
legislation to European Union laws.

In the context  of  the Agreement  between the European  Economic  Community  and  the  Republic 
of  Latvia  on  trade  in  textile  and  clothing  products,  initialled  at  Brussels  on  15 June  1993,  the 
Parties  agreed  that  Article  5  of  the  Agreement  does  not  preclude  the  Community,  if  the 
conditions  are  fulfilled,  from  applying  the  safeguard  measures  for one  or  more  of  its  regions  in 
conformity  with  the  principles  of  the  internal  market. 

In such  an  event,  Latvia  shall  be informed  in advance  of  the  relevant  provisions  of  Protocol  A to 
the  Agreement  to  be  applied,  as  appropriate.

Nothwithstanding  Article  7  (1)  of  this  Agreement,  for  imperative  technical  or  administrative 
reasons  or  to  find  a  solution  to  economic  problems  resulting  from  regional  concentration  of 
imports, or  in  order  to  combat  circumvention  and  fraud  of  the  provisions  of  this  Agreement,  the 
Community  will  establish  for  a  limited  period  of  time  a  specific  management  system  in 
conformity  with  the  principles  of  the  internal  market. 

However,  if  the  Parties  are  unable  to  reach  a  satisfactory  solution  during  the  consultations 
provided  for  in  Article  7  (3),  Latvia  undertakes,  if  so  requested  by  the  Community,  to  respect 
temporary  export  limits  for  one  or  more  regions  of  the  Community.  In  such  a  case,  these  limits 
shall  not  preclude  the  importation  into  the  region(s)  concerned  of  products  which  were  shipped 
from  Latvia  on  the  basis  of  export  licences  obtained  before  the  date  of  formal  notification  to 
Latvia  by  the  Community  about  the  introduction  of  the  above  limits. 

The  Community  shall  inform  Latvia  of  the  technical  and  administrative  measures,  such  as 
defined  in  the  attached  note  verbale,  that  need  to  be  introduced  by  both  Parties  in  order  to 
implement  the  above  paragraphs  in  conformity  with  the  principles  of  the  internal  market.

Parties  agreed  that  Latvia  shall  endeavour  not  to  deprive  certain  regions  of  the  Community 
which  have  traditionally  had  relatively  small  shares  of  Community  quotas  of  imports  of 
products  serving  as  inputs  for  their  processing  industry. 

The  Community  and  Latvia  further  agreed  to  hold  consultations,  should  the  need  arise,  in  order 
to  avert  any  problems  which  might  occur  in  this  respect.

Protocol 2 on trade  between EC and Latvia for processed agricultural 
products 

Article 1 

1. The EC shall grant tariff concessions referred to in Annex  1 for  processed  agricultural 
products originating in Latvia. In the case of the goods referred  to in Annex 2,  however, 
reductions  of  the  agricultural  component  shall  be  granted  within  the  quantity  limits 
referred  therein. 

2. Latvia shall grant tariff concessions determined in accordance with Article 4. 

3. The Joint Committee may: 

-  add to the list of processed agricultural products referred  to in this Protocol 

-  increase  the  quantities  of  processed  agricultural  products  eligible  for  the  tariff 
concessions established by this Protocol. 

4.  The  Joint  Committee  may  replace  the  concessions  with  a  system  of  compensatory 
amounts with no quantity limits, established on the basis of the differences  found  between 
the  prices  on  the  EC  and  Latvia  markets  of the  agricultural  products  actually  used  to 
produce  the  processed  agricultural  products  covered  by  this  Protocol.  The  Joint 
Committee  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.

between  the  prices  on  the  internal  market  of the  contracting  parties  of  the  agricultural 
products considered to have been used for the production of the goods and the prices of 
those agicultural products incorporated in imports from third countries 

-  non-agricultural  component  means  the  part  of  the  charge  remaining  when  the 
agricultural component is deducted from the total charge 

-  basic products  means the agricultural  products  considered  as having  been  used  in  the 
production of goods within the meaning of regulation (EC) 3448/93 of 6.12.93 

-  base quantity means the quantity of a basic product calculated  in the manner  stipulated 
in article 3 of Regulation (EC) 3448/93  and which is used to  determine the  agricultural 
component applicable to goods of a given type, in accordance with the terms of the same 
Regulation. 

Article 3 

1. The EC grants to Latvia the following concessions: 

- the non agricultural component of the charge shall be reduced as per Annex 1 

- for the goods for which Annex  1 stipulates a reduced agricultural  component  (MOBR) 
the  level  of  the  latter  shall  be  calculated  by  reducing  the  base  quantities  of  the  basic 
products  for  which  a levy reduction  is granted  by 20% in  1995, 40% in  1996  and  60% 
from 1997. For the other basic products of those goods, the corresponding reductions, for 
the same years, shall be 10%, 20% and 30%. These reductions shall be granted whitin the 
limits of tariff  quotas  stipulated  in Annex 2. For quantities in excess  of those  quotas  the 
agricultural component applicable to third countries shall apply.

products  originating  in  the  EC  and  falling  under  regulation  (EC)  3448/93.  However,  if 
reform  of  Latvian  agriculture  policy  causes  the  agricultural  component  of  the  charge 
defined  in  Article  2  to  increase,  Latvia  shall  inform  the  Joint  Committee  accordingly, 
which  may  agree  to  the  rate  of  duty  concerned  which  corresponds  to  the  size  of  the 
agricultural component. 

3.  Latvia  shall  reduce the  duties  applicable  to  goods  falling  under  regulation  3448/93  in 
accordance with the following timetable: 

- the non-agricultural  component of the charge shall be removed by 31.12.2001. *.

terms of the Harmonized System in a single 
heading, the whole constitutes the unit of 
qualification;

heading of the Harmonized System, each 
product must be taken individually when 
applying the provisions of this Protocol. 

2.  Where, under general rule 5 of the 

Harmonized System, packaging is included 
with the product for classification purposes, 
it shall be included for the purposes of 
determining origin.

originates in the Community or in Latvia it shall 
not be necessary to establish whether the 
electrical energy, fuel, plant and equipment as 
well as machines and tools used to obtain such 
product, or whether any goods, used in the 
course of production which do not enter and 
which were not intended to enter into the  final 
composition of the product, are originating or 
not.

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. 

2.4.  If  a product  made  from  non-originating  materials which  has acquired  originating  status during  rnanu-
facurc by virtue 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 
docs  not  apply  to  it. 

For <xample: 

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  <0 %  of  the ex-works  price,  is made  from  "odicr 
alloy  steel  roughly  shaped  by  forging'  of  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. 

Çj_.S.  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  earned  out,  taken  as  a whole,  is insufficient  within  die 
meaning  of  Article  "7 

Note  3 

3.1.  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. 

3  JL 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^:tilreWvfwo;S restrictions  only  apply  if  the  mechanisms  concerned  are 
actually incorporated  into the sewing  machine. 

3.3.  When  a  rule  in  the  list  specifies  that a  product  must be  manufactured  from  a particular  material,  the 
condiuon  obviously  docs  not  prevent  the  use  of  other  materials  which,  because  of  their  inherent 
nature, cannot satisfy  the  rule. 

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  which  arc  not  produced  from 
cereals. 

For example: 

In  the  case  of  an  article  made  from  non-woven  materials,  if  the  use  of  onlv  non-originaung  yarn  is 
a lowed  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 yam  —  that is the  fibre  stage.

3  A.  If  in  a  rule  in the  list two  or  more  percentages «re 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 fetation  io  the  particular ^materials

Note  4 

4.1.  The  term "natural fibres' is used  in  the  list to  refer to fibres other than artificial or synthetic fibres  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. 

42.  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 Nos 5101 to 5105, the cotton  fibres  of 
heading Nos 5201 to  5203 and the other vegetable fibres of heading Nos 5301 to 5305. 

4 -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, whkh can  be used to manufacture  artificial, 
synthetic or paper fibres or yarns. 

4.4.  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 N os  5S01  to 5507. 

Note  5 

5.1.  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 °/o or less of  the  total  weight 
of  all the basic textile  materials used  (but see also Notes £3  and^4  below). 

5.2.  However,  this tolerance  may  only  be  applied  to  mixed  products which  haxr been  made  from  two  or 

more basic textile materials. 

The following are the basic textile  materials: 

—  «Ik, 

—  wool, 

—  coarse animal hair, 

—  fine animalJiair, 

—  horsehair, 

a J 

-AS-

—  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, 

—  artificial  man-made  staple fibres. 

For example: 

A yam 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 °/o of  the yarn. 

For example: 

/ 

A  woollen fabric of  heading  No  5112 made from woollen yam of  heading  No  5107  and synthetic  yam 
of  staple fibres of  heading  No  5509  is a  mixed  fabric. Therefore  synthctic^arn which does  not  satisfy 
the  origin  rules  (which  require  manufacture  from  chemical  materials or  textile  pulp)  or  woollen  yarn 
that  docs  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 °/c 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  yams  classified  in  two  separate  headings  or  if  the  cotton  yams  used  arc  themselves 
mixtures. 

For example: 

If  the  tufted  textile  fabric  concerned  had  been  made  from  cotton  yam  of  heading  No  5205  and 
synthetic  fabric  of  heading  No  5407,  then,  obviously,  the  yams  used  arc  two  separate  basic  textile 
materials and the tufted  textile  fabric is accordingly a mixed product. 

For example: 

A  carpet  with  tufts  made  from  both  artificial  yams  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  carpei#Thus,  both  the  jute 
backing  and/or  the  artificial  yarns  could  be  imported  at  that  stage  of  manufacture,  provided  the 
weight  conditions  are  met. 

5.3.  In  the  case  of  fabrics  incorporating  'yam  made  of  polyurcthanc  segmented  with  flexible  segments  of 

polycther  whether  or  not  gimped'  this  tolerance  is 20 %  in  respect of  this  yam. 

5.4.  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.

6.1.  In die case of  those textile products which arc marked in the list by a footnot referring to this note, 
textile materials with the exception of  linings and btedinings 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 arc classified 
in a beading other than that of the product and that their value does not exceed 8 Vo of the ex-works 
price of the product. 

62.  Materials which are not classified  within Chapters 50 to 63 may be used freely, whether or not they 

contain textiles. 

Example: 

If a rule in the list provides that for a particular textile item, such as trousers, yam must be used, this 
does  not  prevent  the  use  of  metal  items,  such  as buttons, because  buttons  are  not  classified  within 
Chapters  50  to  63. For the  same  reason,  it docs  not  prevent the use  of  slide-fasteners  even  though 
slide-fasteners normally contain textiles. 

&3  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.

UNILATERAL DECLARATION 

Declaration  by  Latvia 

Taking  into  account  the  intention  of  both  Parties  to  start  negotiations  on  a  Europe 
Agreement as soon as possible, Latvia expressed its interest that during these  negotiations 
trade  in  textile  and  agricultural  products  could  be  renegotiated  with  an  aim  to  provide 
appropriate adjustment to deepen mutual trade liberalisation following the accession of the 
Scandinavian countries to the European Union.
