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 Estonia, of the

EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM 

•I CL 

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  ancL 

Economic Cooperation insofar as the trade provisions of the latter are rescinded.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

V£ 

-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.

These  measures  may  only  concern  infant  industries,  or  certain  sectors  undergoing

important social problems. 

Customs  duties on imports applicable in Estonia to products originating  in the  Community 
introduced  by  these  measures  may  not  exceed  25%  ad valorem  and  shall  maintain  an

measures having an equivalent effect  concerning that product.

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  26.  The  measures

Article 25 

The Member States of the European Union (hereinafter  referred  to as "the Member  States") 
and Estonia 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 Estonia. The Joint  Committee will be 
informed  about the measures adopted to implement this objective. 

Article 26 

1.  In the event  of the Community or Estonia  subjecting  imports of products  liable to give 
rise to the difficulties  referred  to in Article 23 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 22, 23 and 24, before taking the measures provided  for 
therein or, in cases to which paragraph 3 (d) applies, as soon as possible, the Community 
or  Estonia,  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

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  r 
what is necessary to remedy the difficulties which have arisen. 

(b)  As regards Article 22, 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.

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

Estoma  whichever  is  concerned  may, in  the  situations  specified  in  Article  22,  23

treasures  of  artistic,  historic  or  archaeological  value  or  the  protection  of  intellectual,

TITLE  m 

PAYMENTS, COMPETITION AND OTHER ECONOMIC PROVISIONS 

Article 30 

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  liberalised 
pursuant to the present Agreement.

Article 31 

With  reference  to  the  provisions  of  this  Chapter,  and  notwithstanding  the  provisions  of 
Article 32, until a full  convertibility of the Estonian currency in the meaning of Article VIII 
of the Articles of Agreement on the International Monetary Fund is introduced, Estonia 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 Estonia for the granting of such credits and are permitted  according to  Estonia's  status 
under the IMF. 

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

Article 32 

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

they may affect  trade between the Community and Estonia: 

i) 

ii) 

iii) 

2. 

3. 

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 Estonia 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. 

i 

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. 

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. 

À

Al 

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 Estonia  shall be assessed  taking  into  account  the fact  that 
Estonia  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 
Estonia,  decide  whether  that  period  should  be  extended  by  further  periods  of  three 
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 Estonia  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.

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  Estonia  is  in  serious  balance  of  payments 
difficulties,  or  under  imminent  threat  thereof,  the  Community  or  Estonia,  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 Estonia, 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  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 35 

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

the approximation of Estonian's customs system to that of the Community. 

2.  Cooperation shall include the following in particular: 

- the-exchange of information, including on the methods of investigation; 

- 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 Estonia; 

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

Technical assistance shall be provided where appropriate. 

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

provisions of Protocol No. 5.

Article 36 

1.  The  Parties  recognize  that  an  important  condition  for  the  establishment  of free trade 
between  Estonia  and  the  Community  and  the  further  economic  integration  of  the 
former  into  the  Community  is  the  approximation  of  Estonia's  existing  and  future 
legislation  to  that  of the Community.  Estonia  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 Estonia with technical assistance for  the  implementation 

of these measures, which may include inter alia : 

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

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

Article 1 

Imports into the Community of textile products listed in Annex I and originating in 
Estonia  shall not be subject for the duration of this Protocol to quantitative limits or 
measures of equivalent effect,  unless otherwise provided for in this Protocol. 

Article 2 

Should quantitative limits be introduced, exports to the Community of the textile 

1. 
products of Estonian origin made subject to quantitative limits shall be subject to a 
double-checking system as specified  in Appendix A. 

At the time of entry into force of this Protocol, exports to the Community of 

2. 
products of Estonian origin, listed in Annex II not subject to quantitative limits shall be 
subject to surveillance through the double-checking system referred  to in paragraph 1 
above. 

Following consultations in accordance with the procedure set out in Article  15, 

3. 
exports to the Community of products of Estonian origin covered by Annex I other than 
those listed in Annex II, may be made subject by the Community to surveillance through 
the double-checking system referred to in paragraph  1  or to a prior surveillance system. 

Article 3 

1. 
Imports into the Community of textile products covered by this Protocol shall not 
be subject to the quantitative limits established under this Protocol, provided that they are 
declared to be for re-export outside the Community in the same state or after processing, 
within the framework of the administrative system of control which exists within the 
Community. 

However, the release for home use of products imported into the Community under the 
conditions referred to above shall be subject to the production of an export licence issued 
by the authorities of Estonia, and to proof of origin in accordance with the provisions of 
Appendix A. 

Where the Community authorities ascertain that imports of textile products have 

2. 
been set off against a quantitative limit established under this Protocol, but that the 
products have subsequently been re-exported outside the Community, the authorities shall 
inform the Estonian authorities within four weeks of the quantities involved and authorise 
imports of identical quantities of the same products, which shall not be set off against the 
quantitative limit established under this Protocol for the current or the following year, as 
appropriate. 

3. 
The Community and Estonia recognise the special and differential  character of re 
imports of textile products into the Community after processing in Estonia as a specific 
form of industrial and trade co-operation.

Should quantitative limits be established under Article 5, provided that they are effected  in 
accordance with the regulations on economic outward processing in force in the 
Community, these re-imports shall not be subject to these quantitative limits if they are 
subject to the specific arrangements laid down in Appendix C. 

Article 4 

Should quantitative limits be introduced under Article 5, the following provisions shall 
apply: 

In any Protocol year advance use of a portion of the quantitative limit established 

1. 
for the following Protocol year is authorised for each category of products up to 5% of 
the quantitative limit for the current Protocol year. 

Amounts delivered in advance shall be deducted from the corresponding quantitative 
limits established for the following Protocol year. 

Carryover to the corresponding quantitative limit for the following Protocol year 

2. 
of the amounts not used during any Protocol year is authorised for each category of 
products up to 7% of the quantitative limit for the current Protocol year. 

Transfers in respect of categories in Group I shall not be made from any category 

3. 
except as follows: 

transfers between categories 2 and 3 and from category 1  to categories 2 
and 3 may be made up to 4% of the quantitative limits for the category to 
which the transfer is made, 

transfers between categories 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 may be made up to 4% of the 
quantitative limit for the category to which the transfer is made. 

Transfers into any category in Groups II, III, IV and V may be made from any category or 
categories in Groups I, II, III, IV and V up to 5% of the quantitative limit for the category 
to which the transfer is made. 

The table of equivalence applicable to the transfers referred to above is given in 

4. 
Annex I to this Protocol. 

The increase in any category of products resulting from the cumulative application 

5. 
of the provisions in paragraphs 1,2 and 3 above during a Protocol year shall not exceed 
the following limits: 

13% for categories of products in Group I, 

13.5% for categories of products in Groups II, III, IV and V. 

Prior notification shall be given by the Estonian authorities in the event of recourse 

6.

Article 5. 

Exports of textile products listed in Annex I to this Protocol may be made subject 

1. 
to quantitative limits on the conditions laid down in the following paragraphs. 

2. 
Should  imports  of  textile  products  originating  in  Estonia  and  covered  by  this 
Protocol take place in such increased  quantities, or under such conditions, so as to  cause 
serious damage or actual threat  thereof to the Community's production  of like or  directly 
competitive products, the Community  may request  consultations under Article  15 of this 
Protocol  with  a view  to  reaching  agreement  on  an appropriate  quantitative  limit  for  the 
textile category in question. 

3. 
Pending  a  mutually  satisfactory  solution,  Estonia  undertakes,  from  the  date  of 
notification  of the request  for  consultations, to  suspend  or limit at the level  indicated  by 
the Community, exports of the category of products in question to the Community or the 
region or regions of the Community market specified by the Community. 

The Community  shall authorise the importation  of products of the said category  snipped 
from  Estonia before the date on which the request for consultations was submitted. 

4. 
Should the Parties be unable in the course of consultations to reach a  satisfactory 
solution within  the period  specified  in Article  15, the Community shall have the right to 
introduce a definitive quantitative limit at an annual level not lower than  106% of the level 
of imports reached during the calendar year preceding that in which the imports gave rise 
to the request for consultations. 

The annual  level so fixed shall be revised upwards after  consultations in accordance  with 
the  procedure  referred  to  in  Article  15,  should  the  trend  of  total  imports  into  the 
Community of the product in question make this necessary. 

5. 
The  annual  growth  rate  for  the  quantitative  limits introduced  under  this  Article 
shall  be  fixed  by  agreement  between  the  Parties  in  accordance  with  the  consultation 
procedures established in Article 15. 

6. 
In  the  event  of  the  provisions  of  paragraphs  2,  3  or  4  being  applied,  Estonia 
undertakes  to  issue  export  licences  for  products  covered  by contracts  concluded  before 
the introduction of the quantitative limit, up to the volume of the quantitative limit  fixed. 

7. 
Up to the date of communication  of the statistics referred  to  in Article  12(6), the 
provisions  of  paragraph  2  of this Article  shall apply on the basis of the  annual  statistics 
previously communicated by the Community.

Article 6 

1. 
In view of ensuring the effective  functioning  of this Protocol, the Community and 
Estonia  agree  to  cooperate  fully  in  order  to  prevent,  to  investigate  and  to  take  any 
necessary  legal  and/or  administrative  action  against  circumvention  by  transhipment,  re 
routing,  false  declaration  concerning  the  country  or  place  of  origin,  falsification  of 
documents,  false  declaration  concerning  fibre  content,  quantities  description  or 
classification  of merchandise and by whatever other means. Accordingly, the  Community 
an Estonia agree to establish the necessary legal provisions and administrative  procedures 
permitting effective  action to be taken against such circumvention, which shall include the 
adoption  of  legally  binding  corrective  measures  against  exporters  and/or  importers 
involved. 

2. 
Should  the  Community  believe  on  the  basis  of  information  available  that  the 
present Protocol  is being circumvented,  the Community will consult  with  Estonia  with  a 
view to reaching a mutually satisfactory  solution. These consultations will be held as early 
as possible and at the latest within 30 days from the date of request. 

Pending the results of the consultations referred to in paragraph 2, Estonia shall, as 
3. 
a  precautionary  measure, if so  requested  by the Community, take all necessary  measures 
to  ensure  that,  where  sufficient  evidence  of  circumvention  is  provided,  adjustments  of 
quantitative  limits  established  under  Article  5  liable  to  be  agreed  following  the 
consultations referred to in paragraph 2 may be carried out for the quota year in which the 
request  to  open  consultations  in  accordance  with  paragraph  2  was  made,  or  for  the 
following year if the quota for the current year is exhausted. 

4. 
Should  the  Parties  be  unable,  in  the  course  of  the  consultation  referred  to  in 
paragraph 2 to reach a mutually satisfactory  solution, the Community shall have the right: 

(a)  Where there is sufficient  evidence that products originating in Estonia 

have been imported in circumvention of the present Protocol, to set off the 
relevant quantities against the quantitative limits established under Article 
5; 

(b)  Where sufficient  evidence shows that false declaration concerning fibre 

content, quantities, description or classification of products originating in 
Estonia has occurred, to refuse to import the products in question 

(c) 

Should it appear that the territory of Estonia is involved in transhipment  or 
re-routing of products not originating in Estonia, to introduce 
quantitative limits against the same products originating in Estonia if they 
are not already subject to quantitative limits, or to take any other 
appropriate measures. 

'ï£. 

>%-

12 

5. 
The Parties  agree to  establish  a  system  of administrative  cooperation  to  prevent 
and to address effectively  all problems arising from circumvention in accordance with the 
provisions of Appendix A of this Protocol. 

Article .7 

1. 
The  quantitative  limits  established  under  this  Protocol  on  imports  into  the 
Community  of  textile  products  of  Estonian  origin  will  not  be  broken  down  by  the 
Community into regional shares. 

The Parties  shall cooperate  in order to  prevent  sudden  and prejudicial  changes in 
2. 
traditional  trade  flows  resulting  in  regional  concentration  of  direct  imports  into  the 
Community. 

Estonia  shall  monitor  its  exports  of  products  under  restraint  or  surveillance  into 
3. 
the Community.  Should  a  sudden  and  prejudicial  change in traditional  trade  flows  arise, 
the  Community  will  be  entitled  to  request  consultations  in  order  to  find  a  satisfactory 
solution to  those problems.  Such consultations  must be held within fifteen working  days 
of their being requested by the Community. 

4. 
Estonia  shall  endeavour  to  ensure  that  exports  of  textile  products  subject  to 
quantitative limits into the Community are spaced out as evenly as possible over the year, 
due account being taken in particular of seasonal factors. 

Article 8 

In  the  event  of  denunciation  of  this  Protocol  as  provided  for  in  Article  18(1),  the 
quantitative  limits  established  pursuant  to  this Protocol  shall  be  reduced  on  a pro  rata 
temporis basis unless the Parties decide otherwise by common agreement. 

Article 9 

Estonian  exports  of  cottage-industry  fabrics  woven  on  hand-  or  foot-operated  looms, 
garments or other made-up articles obtained manually from such fabrics and of traditional 
folklore handicraft  products shall not be subject to quantitative limits, provided that  these 
products originating in Estonia meet the conditions laid down in Appendix B. 

Article 10 

1. 
Should the Community consider that  a textile product covered by this Protocol is 
being  imported  into  the  Community  from Estonia  at  a  price  abnormally  lower  than  the 
normal  competitive  level  and  is for  this  reason  causing  or  threatening  to  cause  serious 
injury  to  Community  producers  of  like  or  directly  competitive  products,  it  may  request 
consultations under Article  15, and in that event the following  specific provisions  shall be 
applicable. 

^ 

•<U 

2. 
If  following  such  consultations  it  is  acknowledged  by  common  accord  that  the 
situation described in paragraph  1  exists, Estonia shall take, within the limits of its powers, 
the necessary steps, notably as regards the price at which the product  in question  will be 
sold, to remedy the situation. 

In  order  to  determine whether  the  price of a textile  product  is  abnormally  lower 

3. 
than the normal competitive level, it may be compared with: 

the prices generally charged for like products sold under the ordinary 
conditions by other exporting countries on the market of the importing 
country, 

the prices of like national products at a comparable marketing stage on the 
market of the importing country, 

the lowest prices charged by a third country for the same product in the 
course of ordinary commercial dealings in the three months preceding the 
request for consultations, and not having led to the adoption of any 
measure by the Community. 

4. 
Should the consultations referred  to in paragraph 2 above fail to lead to agreement 
within  30  days of the Community's  request  for  consultations, the  Community  may, until 
these  consultations  have  produced  a  mutually  satisfactory  solution,  temporarily  refuse 
consignments  of  the  product  in  question  at  prices  under  the  conditions  referred  to  in 
paragraph  1  above. 

5. 
In totally  exceptional  and  critical circumstances, where consignments  of  products 
are being imported from Estonia into the Community at prices abnormally lower than the 
normal competitive level, such as to cause injury which it would be difficult  to  repair, the 
Community  may  temporarily  suspend  imports  of  the  products  concerned  pending 
agreement  on  a  solution  in  the  course  of  consultations,  which  shall  be  opened 
immediately.  The  Parties  shall  do  their  utmost  to  reach  a  mutually  acceptable  solution 
within  10 working days' notice of the opening of such consultations. 

6. 
Should the Community have recourse to the measures referred  to  in paragraphs 4 
and 5 above, Estonia may at any time request the opening of consultations to examine the 
possibility of eliminating or modifying  these measures where the causes which made them 
necessary no longer exist. 

Article 11 

The  classification  of the products  covered  by this  Protocol  is based  on  the  tariff 
1. 
and  statistical  nomenclature  of  the  Community  (hereinafter  called  the  "Combined 
Nomenclature", or in abbreviated form "CN") and any amendments thereof. 

Where  any  decision  on  classification  results  in  a  change  of  classification  practice  or  a 
change  of  category  of  any  product  subject  to  this Protocol,  the  affected  products  shall 
follow  the  trade  regime  applicable  to  the  practice  or  category  they  fall  into  after  such 
changes 

£f 

/XL 

2S~ 

Any  amendment  to  the  Combined A/omenclature  (CN)  made  in  accordance  with  the 
procedures in force  in the Community concerning categories of products  covered  by this 
Protocol or any decision relating to the classification  of goods shall not have the effect  of 
reducing quantitative limits introduced pursuant to this Protocol. 

The  origin  of  the  products  covered  by  this  Protocol  shall  be  determined  in 

2. 
accordance with the rules in force in the Community. 

Any amendment  to  these  rules of origin  shall be communicated  to  Estonia  and  shall  not 
have the effect  of reducing any quantitative limit established pursuant to this Protocol. 

The procedures for control of the origin of the products referred to above are laid down in 
Appendix A. 

Article 12 

1. 
Estonia  shall  supply  the  Commission  of the European  Communities  with  precise 
statistical  information  on  all  export  licences  issued  for  categories  of  textile  products 
subject  to the quantitative limits established  under this Protocol, or to  a  double-checking 
system expressed  in quantities and in terms of value and broken down by Member  States 
of  the  Community,  as  well  as  on  all  certificates,  issued  by  the  competent  Estonian 
authorities for  products referred  to in Article 9 and subject to the provisions of Appendix 
B. 

The  Community  shall  likewise  transmit  to  the  Estonian  authorities  precise 
2. 
statistical  information  on  import  authorisations issued  by the Community  authorities and 
import statistics for products covered by the system referred to in Article 5(2). 

The  information  referred  to  above  shall,  for  all  categories  of  products,  be 

3. 
forwarded  before the end of the month following the month to which the statistics relate. 

Upon  request  by  the  Community,  Estonia  shall  supply  import  statistics  for  all 

4. 
products covered by Annex I. 

5. 
Should  it  be  found  on  analysis  of  the  information  exchanged  that  there  are 
significant  discrepancies  between  the  returns  for  exports  and  those  for  imports, 
consultations may be initiated in accordance with the procedure specified  in Article  15 of 
this Protocol. 

For the purpose of applying the provisions of Article 5, the Community undertakes 
6. 
to provide the Estonian authorities before  15 April of each year with the preceding year's 
statistics  on  imports  of  all  textile  products  covered  by  this  Protocol,  broken  down  by 
supplying country and Community Member State. 

Article 13 

Estonia  shall  refrain  from  discrimination  in  the  allocation  of  the  export  licences  or 
documents referred  to in Appendices A and B.

Article 14 

The Parties agree to examine the trend of trade in textile and clothing products each year, 
in the framework of the consultations  provided  for  in Article  15 and  on the basis  of the 
statistics referred to in Article 12. 

Article 15 

Save  where  it  is  otherwise  provided  for  in  this  Protocol,  the  consultation 

1. 
procedure referred  to in this Protocol shall be governed by the following provisions: 

as far as possible consultations shall be held periodically.  Specific 
additional consultations may also be held, 

any request for consultations shall be notified  in writing to the other 
Party, 

where appropriate, the request for consultations shall be followed  within a 
reasonable period and in any case not later than 15 days following the 
notification by a report setting out the circumstances which, in the opinion 
of the requesting Party, justify the submission of such a request, 

the Parties shall enter into consultations within one month of 
notification  of the request at the latest, with a view to reaching agreement 
or a mutually acceptable conclusion within one further month at the latest, 

the period of one month referred to above for the purpose of reaching 
agreement or a mutually acceptable conclusion may be extended by 
common accord. 

2. 
The Community may request consultations in accordance with paragraph  1  when it 
ascertains that  during  a particular  year  of application  of the Protocol  difficulties  arise in 
the  Community  or  one  of  its  regions  due  to  a  sharp  and  substantial  increase,  by 
comparison to the preceding year, in imports of a given category of Group I subject to the 
quantitative limits established pursuant to this Protocol. 

3. 
At the request  of either Party, consultations  shall be held on any problems arising 
from the application of this Protocol. Any consultations held under this Article shall take 
place in a spirit of co-operation  and with a desire to reconcile the differences  between the 
Parties. 

Article 16 

The  Parties  undertake  to  promote  the  exchange  of  visits  by  persons,  groups  and 
delegations  from  business,  trade  and  industry,  to  facilitate  contacts  in  the  industrial, 
the  textile 
commercial  and  technical  fields  connected  with  trade  and  co-operation  in

1. 
Either  Party  may at  any time propose  modifications  to  this  Protocol  or  denounce

The  competent  authorities  of the Community undertake to  inform  Estonia  of any 
changes in the Combined  Nomenclature  (CN) before  the date of their  entry  into force  in 
the Community. 

2. 
The  competent  authorities  of the  Community  undertake  to  inform  the  competent 
authorities of Estonia of any decisions relating to the classification  of products  subject  to 
the  present  Protocol,  within  one  month  of  their  adoption  at  the  latest.  Such 
communication shall include: 

(a) 

a description of the products concerned; 

(b) 

the relevant category and the related CN codes; 

(c) 

the reasons which have led to the decision. 

3.

change of  category  of any  product  subject  to  the Protocol, the competent  authorities  of 
the  Community  shall  provide  30  days'  notice,  from  the  date  of  the  Community's 
communication, before the decision is put into effect.  Products shipped before the date of

ORIGIN 

Article 2 

Products  originating  in Estonia  for  export  to the Community  in  accordance  with 
1. 
the  arrangements  established  by  this  Protocol  shall  be  accompanied  by  a  certificate  of 
Estonian origin conforming to the model annexed to this Appendix. 

The certificate  of origin shall be certified  by the competent Estonian  organisations 
2. 
authorised  under  the  Estonian  legislation  if the  products  in  question  can  be  considered 
products originating in that country within the meaning of the relevant Community rules. 

3. 
However,  the  products  in  Groups  III,  IV  and  V  may  be  imported  into  the 
Community  in  accordance  with  the  arrangements  established  by  this  Protocol  on 
production  of a declaration by the exporter on the invoice or other commercial  document 
relating  to  the  products  to  the  effect  that  the  products  in question  originate  in  Estonia 
within the meaning of the relevant Community rules. 

The certificate  of origin referred  to in paragraph  1 shall not be required  for  import 
4. 
of  goods  covered  by  a  movement  certificate  EUR1  or  Form  EUR2  completed  in 
accordance with the relevant Community rules. 

Article 3 

The certificate  of origin shall be issued only on application having been made in writing by 
the exporter  or, under  the exporter's responsibility, by his authorised  representative.  The 
competent  Estonian  organisations  authorised  under Estonian legislation  shall  ensure  that 
the certificate  of origin is properly completed  and for this purpose they  shall call for  any 
necessary documentary evidence or carry out any check which they consider appropriate. 

Article 4 

Where  different  criteria  for  determining  origin  are laid down for  products  falling  within 
the  same  category,  the  certificates  or  declarations  of  origin  must  contain  a  sufficiently 
detailed  description  of  the  goods  so  as  to  enable the criterion to  be  determined,  on  the 
basis of which the certificate was issued or the declaration drawn up. 

Article 5 

The  discovery  of  slight  discrepancies  between  the  statements  made in  the  certificate  of 
origin and those made in the documents produced to the customs office  for the purpose of 
carrying  out  the  formalities  for  importing  the  products  shall  not  ipso facto  cast  doubt 
upon the statements in the certificate.

Article 6 

1. 
The competent  authorities of Estonia shall issue an export licence in respect  of all 
consignments  from  Estonia  of  textile  products  subject  to  any  definitive  or  provisional 
quantitative  limits  established  under  Article  5  of  the  Protocol,  up  to  the  relevant 
quantitative limits as may be modified  by Articles 4, 6 and 8 of the Protocol, as well as of 
all  consignments  of  textile  products  subject  to  a  double-checking  system  without 
quantitative limits as provided for in Article 2, paragraphs 2 and 3 of the Protocol. 

Article 7 

1. 
For  products  subject  to  quantitative  limits under  this Protocol  the  export  licence 
shall  conform  to  the model  1 annexed  to  this  Appendix  and  it  shall be valid  for  exports 
throughout  the  customs  territory  to  which  the  Treaty  establishing  the  European 
Community applies. However, where the Community has made recourse to the provisions 
of Articles 5 and 7 of the Protocol in accordance with the provision of the Agreed Minute 
No.  1, or to the Agreed Minute No. 2, the textile products covered by the export  licences 
can only be put  into free circulation in the region(s) of the Community indicated  in those 
licences. 

Where  quantitative  limits  have  been  introduced  pursuant  to  this  Protocol,  each 
2. 
export licence must certify  inter alia that the quantity of the product in question has been 
set off against the quantitative limit established for the category of the products concerned 
and shall only cover one category of products subject to quantitative limits. It may be used 
for one or more consignments of the products in question. 

3. 
For  products  subject  to  a double-checking  system without  quantitative  limits  the 
export  licence shall conform  to the model 2 annexed to this Appendix. It  shall only cover 
one category of products and may be used for one or more consignments of the products 
in question. 

Article 8 

The  competent  authorities  of  the  Community  must  be  informed  immediately  of  the 
withdrawal or modification  of any export licence already issued. 

?</

Article 9 

1. 
Exports  of textile products subject  to quantitative limits pursuant  to this Protocol 
shall be set off against the quantitative limits established for the year in which the shipment 
of the goods has been effected,  even if the export licence is issued after such shipment. 

2. 
For  the  purpose  of applying  paragraph  1, shipment  of the goods  is considered  to 
have taken place on the date of their loading onto the exporting aircraft, vehicle or vessel. 

Article 10 

The  presentation  of  an  export  licence,  in  application  of  Article  12  hereafter,  shall  be 
effected  not later than 31 March  of the year following that in which the goods covered by 
the licence have been shipped. 

SECTION II - IMPORTATION 

Article 11 

Importation  into  the  Community of textile products  subject  to  quantitative  limits  or  to  a 
double-checking system pursuant to this Protocol shall be subject to the presentation  of an 
import  authorisation. 

Article 12 

1. 
The competent  authorities  of the Community  shall issue the import  authorisation 
referred  to  in  Article  11  above,  within  five  working  days  of  the  presentation  by  the 
importer of the original of the corresponding export licence. 

2. 
The import authorisations concerning products subject to quantitative limits under 
this  Protocol  shall  be  valid  for  six  months  from  the  date  of  their  issue  for  imports 
throughout  the  customs  territory  to  which  the  Treaty  establishing  the  European 
Community is applied.  However, where the Community has recourse to the provisions  of 
Articles 5 and  7 of the Protocol in accordance with the provisions of the Agreed  Minute 
No.  1, or to  the Agreed Minute No. 2, the products  covered by the import  licences  can 
only  be  put  into  free  circulation  in  the  region(s)  of  the  Community  indicated  in  those 
licences. 

3. 
The  import  authorisations  for  products  subject  to  a  double-checking  system 
without  quantitative  limits  shall be valid  for  six months from the  date of their  issue  for 
imports  throughout  the  customs territory  to  which the Treaty  establishing  the  European 
Community is applicable. 

The competent  authorities of the Community shall cancel the import  authorisation 

4. 
already issued whenever the corresponding export licence has been withdrawn.

% 

However, if the competent authorities of the Community are notified  of the withdrawal or 
the cancellation  of the  export  licence only after  the importation  of the products  into  the 
Community,  the  relevant  quantities  shall  be  set  off  against  the  quantitative  limits 
established for the category and the quota year concerned. 

Article 13 

1. 
If  the  competent  authorities  of  the  Community  find  that  the  total  quantities 
covered by export  licences issued by the competent authorities of Estonia for  a  particular 
category in any year exceed the quantitative limit established  in accordance with Article 5 
of  the  Protocol  for  that  category,  as  may  be  modified  by  Articles  4,  6  and  8  of  the 
Protocol,  the  said  authorities  may suspend  the  further  issue  of import  authorisations.  In 
this  event,  the  competent  authorities  of  the  Community  shall  immediately  inform  the 
authorities  of Estonia  and the  special  consultation  procedure  set  out  in Article  15 of the 
Protocol shall be initiated  forthwith. 

2. 
Exports  of  products  of  Estonian  origin  subject  to  quantitative  limits  or  double-
checking  system  and  not  covered  by Estonian  export  licences issued  in accordance  with 
the provisions of this Appendix may be refused  an import authorisation  by the  competent 
Community authorities. 

However, without prejudice to Article 6 of the Protocol, if the import of such products is 
allowed  into  the  Community  by  the  competent  authorities  of  the  Community,  the 
quantities  involved  shall  not  be  set  off  against  the  appropriate  quantitative  limits 
established  pursuant  to  this  Protocol,  without  the  express  agreement  of  the  competent 
authorities of Estonia.

TITLE V 

ADMINISTRATIVE  CO-OPERATION 

Article 17 

The  Community  and  Estonia  shall  cooperate  closely  in  the  implementation  of  the 
provisions of this Appendix. To this end, contacts and  exchanges  of views, including  on 
technical matters, shall be facilitated by both Parties. 

Article 18 

In order to  ensure the correct  application  of this Appendix, the  Community  and  Estonia 
offer  mutual  assistance  for  the  checking  of  the  authenticity  and  the  accuracy  of  export 
licences and certificates  of origin issued or of any declarations  made within the  terms  of 
this Appendix. 

Article 19 

Estonia  shall transmit  to  the  Commission  of  the European  Communities  the  names  and 
addresses  of  the  authorities  competent  to  issue  and  verify  the  export  licences  and  the 
certificates  of origin, together with specimens of the stamps used by these authorities and 
specimen  signatures  of  officials  responsible  for  signing  the  export  licences  and  the 
certificates  of  origin.  Estonia  shall  also  notify  the  Community  of  any  change  in  this 
information. 

?tf 

Al 

Article 20 

1. 
Subsequent  verification  of certificates  of origin or export  licences shall be carried 
out at random, or whenever the competent Community  authorities have reasonable doubt 
as to the authenticity of the certificate  or licence or as to the accuracy of the  information 
regarding the true origin of the products in question. 

2. 
In  such  cases,  the  competent  authorities  in  the  Community  shall  return  the 
certificate  of  origin  or  the  export  licence  or  a  copy  thereof  to  the  competent  Estonian 
authorities, giving, where appropriate, the reasons of form  or  substance  which justify  an 
enquiry. If the invoice has been submitted, such invoice or a copy thereof shall be attached 
to the certificate  or  to  the licence or  their  copies.  The authorities  shall  also  forward  any 
information  that  has  been  obtained  suggesting  that  the  particulars  given  on  the  said 
certificate or licence are inaccurate. 

The provisions of paragraph  1  above shall also apply to subsequent verifications  of 

3. 
the declarations of origin provided for in Article 2 of this Appendix. 

The  results  of  the  subsequent  verifications  carried  out  in  accordance  with 
4. 
paragraphs  1 and  2  above  shall  be  communicated  to  the  competent  authorities  of  the 
Community  within  three  months  at  the  latest.  The  information  communicated  shall 
indicate  whether  the  disputed  certificate,  licence  or  declaration,  applies  to  the  goods 
actually exported  and whether these goods are eligible for export under the  arrangements 
established  by  the  Protocol.  The  information  shall  also  include,  at  the  request  of  the 
Community, copies of all the documentation necessary to fully  determine the facts,  and in 
particular, the true origin of the goods. 

Should  such  verifications  reveal  systematic  irregularities  in  the  use  of  declarations  of 
origin, the Community may subject  imports of the products in question to the  provisions 
of Article 2, paragraph  1  of this Appendix. 

5. 
For  the  purpose  of  subsequent  verification  of certificates  of origin,  copies  of  the 
certificates  as well as any export documents referring to them shall be kept for at least two 
years by the competent Estonian authorities. 

Recourse  to  the random verification  procedure  specified  in this  Article  must  not 

6. 
constitute an obstacle to the release for home use of the products in question. 

Article 21 

1.  Where  the verification  procedure  referred  to  in  Article  20  or  where  information 
available to the competent authorities of the Community or of Estonia indicates or appears 
to  indicate  that  the  provisions  of  this Protocol  are being circumvented  or  infringed,  the 
Parties  shall  cooperate  closely and  with the  appropriate  urgency  in order  to  prevent  any 
such circumvention or  infringement. 

73 

<\ 

2o 

To this end, the competent authorities of Estonia shall, on their own initiative or at 
2. 
the  request  of  the  Community,  carry  out  appropriate  inquiries,  or  arrange  for  such 
inquiries to be carried out, concerning operations which are, or appear to the Community 
to be, in circumvention  or infringement  of this Appendix. Estonia  shall communicate  the 
results  of  these  inquiries  to  the  Community,  including  any  other  pertinent  information 
enabling the  cause of the  circumvention  or  infringement,  including the true  origin  of the 
goods, to be determined. 

By  agreement  between  the  Community  and  Estonia,  officials  designated  by  the 

3. 
Community may be present at the inquiries referred to in paragraph 2 above. 

In pursuance  of the cooperation  referred  to in paragraph  1 above, the  competent 
4. 
authorities  of the  Community  and  Estonia  shall exchange  any information  considered  by 
either Party to be of use in preventing circumvention  or infringement  of the provisions  of 
this  Protocol.  These  exchanges  may  include  information  on  the  production  of  textile 
products  in  Estonia  and  on  the  trade  in  the  type  of  products  covered  by  this  Protocol 
between  Estonia  and  third  countries,  particularly  where  the  Community  has  reasonable 
grounds to consider that the products in question may be in transit  across the territory  of 
Estonia  prior  to  their  importation  into  the  Community.  This information  may  include  at 
the request of the Community, copies of all available relevant documentation. 

5.  Where  sufficient  evidence  shows that  the provisions  of this  Appendix  have  been 
circumvented  or infringed,  the competent  authorities of the Community  and Estonia  may 
agree to take the measures set out in Article 6, paragraph 4 of the Protocol, and any other 
measures as are necessary to prevent a recurrence of such circumvention or infringement.

products  listed  in  the  Annex  to  this  Appendix  shall  be  subject  to  the  provisions  of  this 
Protocol, unless the special provisions below provide otherwise : 

1. 
Subject  to  paragraph  2,  only  reimports  into  the  Community  of  products  affected

exceed  7,5  %  of the quantity set for  the year of actual utilisation ; 

The  Community  shall  inform  Estonia  of  any  measures  taken  pursuant  to  the 

5. 
preceding  paragraphs.

AGREED MINUTE N°l 

In the context of Protocol N°l  oh trade in textile and clothing products, the Parties agreed 
that  Article  5  of  the  Protocol  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,  Estonia  shall  be  informed  in  advance  of  the  relevant  provisions  of 
Appendix A of the Protocol to be applied, as appropriate. 

•  •'1 

AGREED MINUTE N°2 

Notwithstanding Article 7, paragraph  1 of Protocol N°  1 on trade in textile and  clothing 
products,  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 Protocol, 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,  paragrah  3,  Estonia  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  Estonia  on  the  basis  of  export  licences  obtained 
before the date of formal notification  to Estonia by the Community about the  introduction 
of the above limits. 

The  Community  shall  inform  Estonia  of  the  technical  and  administrative  measures  that 
need  to  be  introduced  by  both  Parties  in  order  to  implement  the  above  paragraphs  in 
conformity with the principles of the internal market.

u 

In the context of Protocol N°l  on trade in textile and clothing products, the Parties agreed 
that Estonia shall endeavour not to deprive certain regions of the Community which have 
traditionally  had  relatively  small  shares  of the  Community quotas  of  import  of  products 
serving as inputs for their processing industry. 

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

In the context  of Protocol N°l  on trade in textile and clothing products, Estonia  agreed 
that, from the  date  of  request  for  and  pending  the consulations  referred  to  in  Article  7, 
paragraph 3, it shall cooperate by not issuing export licences that would further  aggravate 
the  problems  resulting  from  the  regional  concentration  of  direct  imports  into  the 
Community.

Protocol No. 2 on trade between the Community and Estonia for 
processed agricultural products 

3o 

Article 1 

1.  The  Community  shall  grant  tariff  concessions  referred  to  in  Annex  1 for  processed 
agricultural products originating in Estonia.  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. 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. 

3.  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  Community  and Estonian  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. 

Article 2 

For the purposes of this Protocol, the following definitions shall apply: 

- goods means the processed agricultural products referred to in this Protocol 

-  agricultural component  means  the  part  of the  charge  corresponding  to  the  difference 
between  the  prices  on  the  internal  market  of  the  Parties  of  the  agricultural  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 

-  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.

34 

Article 3 

1. The Community grants to Estonia 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. 

2.  The agricultural  components  shall be  replaced  by reduced  agricultural  components  in 
the case of goods added in accordance with the procedure described in Article  1  (2). 

Article 4 

Estonia shall apply the duties applicable on  1.1.1995 to imports of processed  agricultural 
products  originating  in  the  Community  and  falling  under  Regulation  (EC)  3448/93. 
However,  if Estonia wishes to  apply  duties  in  accordance  with  Article  18(2)  and  (3)  of 
this Agreement, Estonia shall refer them to the Joint Committee. Estonia  shall distinguish 
between  the  agricultural  component  and  the  non-agricultural  component  of  the  duties 
within  2 years of the  entry  into  force  of this  Agreement.  Estonia  shall  remove  the  non-
agricultural  component  of  the  duties  so  distinguished  within  3  years  of  the  date  of 
distinguishing  between  the  duties  components,  in 3  equal  annual  steps.  The  agricultural 
component of the duty shall be reduced by the Joint Committee along the same principles 
indicated in Article 3, paragraph  1, second indent.

3JL  The working  or processing  rcouircd  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  rule.  However,  the  expression  "manufacture  from  materials  of  any  heading,  including  o t i i er

Ii 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

carrying  out  of  more  working  or  processing  also confers  originating  status; conversely,  the  carrying 
out  of  less  working  or  processing  cannot  confer  origin.  Thu<  if  a  rule  says  that  non-originating 
material  at  a  certain  level  of  manufacture  may be used, the  UK  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  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  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  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. 

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

For example: 

The  rule  for  heading  No  19<M which  specifically  excludes the  use of  cereals  or  their derivatives  does 
DOtjprcvent  the  use  of  mineral  salts,  chemicals  and  other  additives  which  are  not  produced  from 

For example:

allowed  for  th,s class  of  arude  « is  not  possible  to start froir. r.cr.-ovcn cloth  -  even  if  non-woven 
cloths  cannot  normally  be  made  from  yarn.  In  such eases,  the  ,uni„s  material  would  normally  be  at 
the stage  before  yarn  —  that  is the  fibre  stage. 

f.r°.m  «x>"-"oven  matenals,  ,:' the  use  of  only  non-originating  varn  is 

See also Note 6 J  in  relation  to  textiles. 

3-4.  If  in a  rule in  the  list two  or  more  percentages  are  given for the miximutn 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  exceei  the  highest  of  the  percentages  given. 
Furthermore, the  individual  percentages  must  not be exceeded  in rclaooa to  the  parucular^materials 
they apply to. 

Note  4 

4.1.  The term "natural fibres' iis 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. 

il.  The term "natural fibres* includes  horsehair  of  heading  No  0503, silk of  beading Nos  S002 and  5003 
as wdl  as the wool fibres,, fine or coarse  animal hair of  beading Not 5101 to 5105, the cotton  fibres  of 
heading Nos  5201  to  5203  and  the  other vegetable fibres of beading Nos 5301 to 5305. 

^J.  The  terms  "textile  pulp',  "chemical  materials*  and  "paper-making  materials'  arc  used  in  the  l i s t /o 
describe the  materials  not  classified  in  chapters  50 to £3, which can be used to  manufacture  anifidal, 
synthetic or paper fibres or yarns. 

4.4.  The  term  "man-made  staple  fibres*  is  used  in  the  Est to  refer to  synthetic or  artificial  filament  tow, 

staple fibres or waste, of  headings  N os  5501  to  S507. 

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 sec  also Notes 4J3 and^".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  arc the basic textile  materials: 

—. silk, 

—  wool, 

—  coarse  animal  hair, 

—  fine animal  hair, 

—  horsehair, 

A)0^ 

At 

-AS-

—  cotton. 

—  paper-making  materials and  paper, 

—  flax, 

—  true hemp, 

—  jute and other textile  bast  fibres, 

—  sisal and other textile fibres of  die 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 yarn of  heading No  5205  made from cotton fibres of  heading No 5203 and synthetic staple  fibres  of 
beading 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 yam. 

For example: 

/ 

A  woollen fabric of  heading  No  5112 made from woollen yam of heading No  5107 and synthetic  yam 
of  staple fibres of  beading  No  5509  is a  mixed fabric. Therefore synthetic yarn which does  not  satisfy 
the origin  rules (which  require  manufacture  from chemical  marrriits or textile 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 usee  up  to  a  weight" 
of  10%  of  the fabric. 

For example: 

Tufted  textile  fabric  of  heading  No  5802  made  from  cotton  yam  of  heading  No  5205  and  cotton 
fabric  of  heading  No  5210  is  only  a  mixed  product  if  the couon  fabric  is  itself  a  mixed  fabric  being 
made  from  yarns  classified  in  two  separate  headings  or  if  the  cotton  yams  used  are  themselves 
mixtures. 

For example: 

If  the  tufted  textile  fabric  concerned  had  been  made  from  couon  yam  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. 

for 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  tcxule  materials arc used. Thus, any non-originating  materials  that 
ire  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 
biekjng  and/or  the  artificial  yarns  could  be  imported  at  thai  stage  of  manufacture,  provided  the 
«.'eight conditions  arc  met. 

5-3.  In the  case  of  fabrics  incorporating  'yam  made  of  polyurethane  segmented  with  flexible  segments  of 

polyethcr whether or not gimped' this tolerance is 20 % in respect of this yarn. 

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 % in respect of  this  strip.

6.1.  In the case  of  those  textile  products  which  are  marked  in  the list by a foocnot  referring  to  this  note, 
textile materials with the exception  of  linings  and  mterlmings which do not satisfy the rule sex 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 docs not exceed 8 Vo of  the ex-works 
price of  the product. 

61.  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, 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. 

^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.
