ANNEX

‘ANNEX I

TEXTILE PRODUCTS REFERRED TO IN ARTICLE 1 (1)

1. Without prejudice to the rules for the interpretation of the combined nomenclature, the wording of the
description of goods is considered to be of indicative value only, since the products covered by each category
are determined, within this Annex, by CN codes. Where there is an “ex” symbol in front of a CN code, the
products covered in each category are determined by the scope of the CN code and by that of the corresponding
description.

2. When the constitutive material of the products of categories 1 to 114 is not specifically mentioned, these
products are to be taken to be made exclusively of wool or of fine animal hair, of cotton or of man-made
fibres. This applies to the following countries: Argentina, Bangladesh, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Brazil, Cambodia,
China (MFA Agreement), Croatia, Egypt, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia,
Laos, Macao, Malaysia, Nepal, Pakistan, Peru, Philippines, Russian Federation, Singapore, South Korea, Sri Lanka,
Taiwan, Thailand and Vietnam.

3. Garments which are not recognizable as being garments for men or boys or as being garments for women or

girls are classified with the latter.

4. Where the expression “babies' garments” is used, this is meant to cover garments up to and including commercial

size 86.

ANNEX I B

1. This Annex covers textile raw materials (categories 128 and 154), textile products other than those of wool and
fine animal hair, cotton and man-made fibres, as well as man-made fibres and filaments and yarns of categories
124, 125A, 125B, 126, 127A and 127B.

2. Without prejudice to the rules for the interpretation of the combined nomenclature, the wording of the
description of goods is considered to be of indicative value only, since the products covered by each category
are determined, within this Annex, by CN codes. Where there is an “ex” symbol in front of a CN code, the
products covered in each category are determined by the scope of the CN code and by that of the corresponding
description.

3. Garments which are not recognisable as being garments for men or boys or as being garments for women or

girls are classified with the latter.

4. Where the expression “babies' garments” is used, this is meant to cover garments up to and including commercial

size 86.

of flexibilities foreseen in Article 3.

5.

recredited to the quantities within the Community quantitative limits not set aside pursuant to the first subparagraph
of Article 3(4) or to the fifth subparagraph of Article 3(5) of Council Regulation (EC) No 3036/94.
