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 Lithuania, of

EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM 

u 

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Economic Cooperation insofar as the trade provisions of the latter are rescinded.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

& 

- 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.

establishing,  whether  directly  or  indirectly,  discrimination  between  the  products  of  one

In 
particular  in the  event  of  a third country acceding  to  the  Community,  such  consultations

problems. 

Customs  duties on imports applicable in Lithuania to  products originating  in the  Community 
introduced by these measures may not exceed 25% ad valorem and shall maintain an element 
of preference for products originating in the Community.

at the request  of the Community, consultations shall be held in the Joint  Committee on such 
measures  and  the  sectors  to  which  they  apply  before  they  are  applied.  When  taking  such 
measures Lithuania shall provide the Joint Committee with a schedule for  the elimination of 
the customs duties introduced under this Article. This schedule shall provide for a phasing out 
of these duties starting at the latest two years after their introduction at equal annual rates. The 
Joint Committee may decide on a different  schedule. 

Article 23 

If one of the Parties finds that dumping is taking place in trade with the other Party within the 
meaning of Article VI of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade, it may take appropriate

Article VI of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade, with related internal legislation and 
with the conditions and procedures laid down in Article 27. 

Article 24

to cause or threaten to cause: 

- serious injury to domestic producers of like or directly competitive products in the territory 

of one of the Parties, 

or 
- serious  disturbances  in any  sector  of the  economy or  difficulties  which  could  bring about

the Community  or Lithuania, whichever is concerned, may take appropriate measures under 
the conditions and in accordance with the procedures laid down in Article 27. 

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  and  Lithuania  shall  progressively  adjust  any  State  monopolies  of  a 
commercial character so as to ensure that, by the end of the fifth 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 Lithuania. The 
Joint Committee will be informed about the measures adopted to implement this objective. 

Article 27 

1.  In the event of the Community or Lithuania  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  Lithuania,  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. 

^ 

10 

Il 

(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  Lithuania 
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. 

Article 30 

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

TITLE EDI 

PAYMENTS, COMPETITION AND OTHER ECONOMIC PROVISIONS 

Article 31 

The Parties undertake to authorize, 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 liberalized pursuant to the 
present Agreement. 

Article 32 

With reference to the provisions of this Chapter, and notwithstanding the provisions of Article 
33, until a full  convertibility of the Lithuanian currency in the meaning of Article VIII of the 
Agreement  on the  International  Monetary  Fund  is introduced, Lithuania  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 Lithuania for the 
granting of such credits and are permitted according to  Lithuania's status under the IMF. 

Lithuania 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.  Lithuania  shall 
inform the Joint Committee promptly of the introduction of such measures and of any changes 
therein. 

Article 33 

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

they may affect  trade between the Community and Lithuania: 

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 Lithuania 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  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. 
12 

f> 

n 

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. 

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 this Agreement,  any 
public  aid  granted  by  Lithuania  shall  be  assessed  taking  into  account  the  fact  that 
Lithuania  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 
Lithuania,  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  Lithuania  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. 

13 

I<t 

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. 

Article 34 

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 of the Community or Lithuania is in serious balance 
of payments difficulties,  or under imminent threat thereof, the Community  or Lithuania, 
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 Lithuania, as the case may 
be, shall inform the other Party forthwith. 

Article 35 

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 principles of the concluding  document  of 
the  April  1990  Bonn  meeting  of the  Conference  on  Security  and  Co-operation  in  Europe, 
notably entrepreneurs' freedom of decision, are upheld. 

Article 36 

1. The Parties commit themselves to developing customs cooperation in order to achieve the 

approximation of Lithuanian'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 Lithuania; 

- the simplification of the inspections and formalities in respect of the carriage of goods; 
- the exchange of information on the methods of investigation. 

Technical assistance shall be provided where appropriate. 

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

of Protocol 5.

Article 37 

1.  The Parties  recognize  that  an  important  condition  for  the  establishment  of free trade 

between Lithuania and the Community and the further economic integration of the former 
into the Community is the approximation of Lithuania's existing and future  legislation to 
that  of  the  Community.  Lithuania  shall  endeavour  to  ensure  that  its  trade  and  trade-
related legislation will be gradually made compatible with that of the Community. 

2.  The  approximation  of  laws  shall  extend  to  the following  areas in  particular:  dumping, 

rules on competition, customs legislation, technical rules and standards. 

3.  The Community shall provide Lithuania with technical assistance for the implementation 

of these measures, which may include i.a.: 

- the exchange of experts, 
-the provision of early information especially on relevant legislation; 
- organization of seminars; 
- training activities; 

- aid for the translation of Community legislation in the relevant sectors.

Agreed  Minute  No  1 

In  the  context  of  the  Agreement  between  the  European  Economic  Community  and  the  Republic 
of  Lithuania  on  trade  in  textile  and  clothing  products,  initialled  at  Brussels  on  20 July  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,  Lithuania  shall  be  informed 
Protocol  A  to  the  Agreement  to  be  applied,  as  appropriate.

of  the  Republic  of  Lithuania 

For  the  Council

Communities 

Agreed  Minute  No  2 

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),  Lithuania  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  Lithuania  on  the  basis  of  export  licences  obtained  before  the  date  of  formal 
notification  to  Lithuania  by  the  Community  about  the  introduction  of  the  above  limits. 

The  Community  shall  inform  Lithuania  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.

In  the  context  of  the  Agreement  between  the  European  Economic  Community  and  the  Republic 
of  Lithuania  on  trade  in  textile  and  clothing  products,  initialled  at  Brussels  on  20 July  1993,  the 
Parties  agreed  that  Lithuania  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  Lithuania  further  agreed  to  hold  consultations,  should  the  need  arise,  in 
order  to  avert  any  problems  which  might  occur  in  this  respect.

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 Lithuania markets of the agricultural  products actually used  to 
produce  the  processed  agricultural  products  covered  by  this  Protocol.  The  Joint

products considered to have been used for the production of the goods  and the prices of 
those agricultural 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

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

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

Article 4 

1. Before  31.12.96 Lithuania shall determine the agricultural  component  of the charge on 
the  goods  falling  under  regulation  3448/93  on  the  basis  of  import  duties  stipulated  in

been used in the production of these goods.  It shall forward that information  to the Joint 
Committee.

originating  in  the  EC  and  falling  under  regulation  (EC)  3448/93,  except  for  the  goods 
listed in Annex 3 which are subject to the duties indicated therein.  However,  if reform  of 
the Lithuanian agriculture policy causes the agricultural component  of the charge defined 
in  Article  2  to  increase,  Lithuania  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. Lithuania 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.

identical  products classified  under the same 
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 Lithuania  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, arc originating  or

K'ole i  ; 

S-l-  In the case of  any  beading  not  in  the  list or  any part of  a beading  that  is  not  in  the  Un,  die  "change  of 
beading' rule set out  in  Artidc  6  ( I)  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  usai.  The  restrictions  contained  in  a  rule  in  column  3  likewise  apply  only  to 
the  non-originating  materials  used. 

X3.  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  odicr 
materials of  heading  No 
'  means that only  materials classified  in the  same  heading  as tbc  product  of 
a  different «description  than  that  of  the  product  as given in column  2 of  the  list may be  used. 

3--<-  If  a product  made  from  non-originating  materials  which  has  acquired  originating  status  during  manu-
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  example: 

An  engine  of  heading  No  S407,  for  which  the  rule  states  thai  die  value  of  die  non-originating 
materials which  may  be  incorporated  may  not  exceed  <C Vo of  the  ex-works  price,  is  made  from  'odicr 
alloy  swrcl roughly  shaped  by  forging'  of  heading  No  7224. 

If  this  forging  has  been  forged  in  the  country  concerned  from  a non-originating  ingot  then  die  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  oi  the  non-originaung  ingot  is  thus  not  taken  into  account  when 
adding  up the value  of  the  non-originating  materials  used. 

9..S.  Even  if  the  change  of  heading  rule  or  the  other  rules  contained  m  the  list  are  satisfied,  a  product  shall 
not  acquire  originating  status  if  the  processing  carried  but,  taken  as  a  whole,  is  insufficient  within  die 
meaning  of  ArucJc  ^

3.1.  The  rule  in  the  list  represents  the  minimum  amount  of  working  or  processing  required  and  die 
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  2.  When  a  rule  in  the  list  specifics  that  a  product  may  be  manufactured  from  more  than  one  material, 

this means that  any o ne  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  docs  not  mean  that  both  have  to  be  used;  one  can  use  one  or  the 
other or  both. 

If,  however,  a  restriction  applies  to  one  materia] 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" xigxag 
mechanism  used  must  originate;  these  two  restrictions  only  apply  if  the  mechanisms  concerned,  are 
actually  incorporated  into  the  sewing  machine. 

3.3.  When  a  rule  in  the  list  specifics  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  are  not  produced 
from 
cereals. 

For  example: 

In  the  case  of  an  article  made  from  non-woven  materials,  .f  the  use  of  onlv  non-ongmaung  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  m a de  from  yarn.  In  such  cases,  the  starting  material  would  normally  be  ai 
the  stage  before  y am  —  that  is  the  fibre  stage.

Sec  also  Note6.3  in  relation  to  textiles. 

5  A.  If  hi  a  rule  in  the  list  two  or  more  percentages  are  given  for  the  maximum  value  of  nc«-originating 
materials that can  be  used, then  these  percentages  may not be added together. The  rnaximurc vai-je  m 
all  the  non-originating  materials  used  may  never  ocoeed  the  highest  of  the  percentages  given. 
Furthermore,  the  individual  percentages  must  not  be  exceeded  to  rcUoon  to  the  patticuiar^fhaterials 
they apply to. 

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  beading  No  0503, silk of  heading  Nos  5002  and  5003 
as well as the wool  fibres,  fine  or coarse  animal  hair of  beading  Nos 5101 to 5105, the cotton  fibres  of 
heading  Nos  5201  10 5203 and  tbc other vegetable fibres of heading Nos  5301 to  5305. 

^ J.  The  terms  'textile  pulp",  "chemical  materials'  and  "paper-making  materials*  are  used  in  the  list ^io 
describe  the  materials  not  classified  in  chapters  50  to  63,  which  can  be used  to  manufacture  artificial, 
synthetic or paper fibres or yarns. 

4.4.  The  term  "man-made  staple  fibres*  is  usee 

in  the  Kst  to  refer  to  synthetic  or  artificial  filament  tow, 

staple fibres or waste,  of  headings  N os  5501  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 % or  less  of  the  total  weight 
of  all the  basic textile  materials  used  (but  see  also  Notes Ç3  and C.4  below). 

5-2.  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  animal  hair, 

—  fine  animal  hair, 

—  horsehair. 

S&-

IS"V 

-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  beading  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  woollen  fabric of  heading  No  5112  made  from woollen  yarn of  heading  No  5107 and  synthetic  y am 
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  tcxulc  pulp)  or  woollen  y am 
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  IC°/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  yarns  classified 
in  two  separate  headings  or  if  the  cotton  yarns  used  arc  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  yams  used  are  two  separate  basic  textile 
materials  and  the  tufted  textile  fabric  is  accordingly  a  mixed  product 

Fo:  example: 

A  carpet  with  tufts  made  from  both  artificial  yams  and  couon  yarns  and  with  a  jute  backing  is  a 
mixed  product  because  three  basic  tcxulc  materials  arc  used.  Thus,  any  non-originating  materials  thai 
are  at  a  later  stage  of  manufacture  than  the  rule  allows  may  be  used,  provided  their  total  weight  taken 
together  does  not  exceed  10 °/o  of  the  weight  of  the  textile  m;i<-r:i!s  in  ihe  carpet  Thus,  both  the  jute 
bicking  ana/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  'yarn  made  of  polyurethane  segmented  with  flexible  segments  of 

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

SA.  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  rwo  films  of  plastic  film,  this  tolerance  is 30  c/o in  rcsf>ect  of  this  strip.

Note  ^ 

eT.l.  In the 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 mtcdmings 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. 

62.  Materials which  arc 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, yarn 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  does  not  prevent  the  use  of  slide-fasteners  «even though 
slide-fasteners normally contain textiles. 

t x3  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 Lithuania 

Taking  into  account  the  intention  of  both  Parties  to  start  negotiations  on  a  Europe 
Agreement  as  soon  as  possible,  Lithuania  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.
