Article 6 

Sufficiently worked or processed products 

1.  For the purposes of Article 2, products which are not wholly obtained are considered 
to be sufficiently worked or processed when the conditions set out in the list in Annex II 
are fulfilled. 

The conditions referred to above indicate, for all products covered by the Agreement, the 
working  or  processing  which  must  be  carried  out  on  non-originating  materials  used  in 
manufacturing  and  apply  only  in  relation  to  such  materials.  It  follows  that  if  a  product 
which has acquired originating status by fulfilling the conditions set out in the list is used 
in the manufacture of another product, the conditions applicable to the product in which 
it is incorporated do not apply to it, and no account shall be taken of the non-originating 
materials which may have been used in its manufacture. 

2.  Notwithstanding  paragraph 1,  non-originating  materials  which,  according  to  the 
conditions  set  out  in  the  list,  should  not  be  used  in  the  manufacture  of  a  product  may 
nevertheless be used, provided that: 

(a)  their total value does not exceed 10 per cent of the ex-works price of the product; 

(b)  any  of  the  percentages  given  in  the  list  for  the  maximum  value  of  non-originating 
materials are not exceeded through the application of this paragraph. 

This  paragraph  shall  not  apply  to  products  falling  within  Chapters 50  to 63  of  the 
Harmonized System. 

3.  Paragraphs 1 and 2 shall apply subject to the provisions of Article 7. 

Article 7 

Insufficient working or processing 

1.  Without  prejudice  to  paragraph  2,  the  following  operations  shall  be 
considered  as  insufficient  working  or  processing  to  confer  the  status  of 
originating  products,  whether  or  not  the  requirements  of  Article  6  are 
satisfied: 

EN 

57 

   EN 

 
 
(a) 

preserving  operations  to  ensure  that  the  products  remain  in  good 
condition during transport and storage; 

(b)  breaking-up and assembly of packages; 

(c)  washing,  cleaning;  removal  of  dust,  oxide,  oil,  paint  or  other 

coverings; 

(d) 

ironing or pressing of textiles; 

(e) 

simple painting and polishing operations; 

(f) 

husking, partial or total bleaching, polishing, and glazing of cereals 
and rice; 

(g)  operations to colour sugar or form sugar lumps; 

(h)  peeling, stoning and shelling, of fruits, nuts and vegetables; 

(i) 

sharpening, simple grinding or simple cutting; 

(j) 

(k) 

(l) 

sifting, screening, sorting, classifying, grading, matching; (including 
the making-up of sets of articles); 

simple placing in bottles, cans, flasks, bags, cases, boxes, fixing on 
cards or boards and all other simple packaging operations; 

affixing or printing marks, labels, logos and other like distinguishing 
signs on products or their packaging; 

(m)  simple mixing of products, whether or not of different kinds; 

(n) 

simple assembly  of parts of  articles to constitute a complete article 
or disassembly of products into parts; 

(o) 

a combination of two or more operations specified in (a) to (n); 

(p) 

slaughter of animals. 

2.  All  operations  carried  out  either  in  the  Community  or  in  Croatia  on  a 
given product shall be considered together when determining whether the 
working  or  processing  undergone  by  that  product  is  to  be  regarded  as 
insufficient within the meaning of paragraph 1. 

Article 8 

Unit of qualification 

1.  The unit of qualification for the application of the provisions of this Protocol shall 
be  the  particular  product  which  is  considered  as  the  basic  unit  when  determining 
classification using the nomenclature of the Harmonized System. 

EN 

58 

   EN 

 
It follows that: 

(a)  when a product composed of a group or assembly of articles is classified under the 
terms  of  the  Harmonized  System  in  a  single  heading,  the  whole  constitutes  the  unit  of 
qualification; 

(b)  when a consignment consists of a number of identical products classified under the 
same heading of the Harmonized System, each product must be taken individually when 
applying the 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. 

Article 9 

Accessories, spare parts and tools 

Accessories,  spare  parts  and  tools  dispatched  with  a  piece  of  equipment,  machine, 
apparatus  or  vehicle,  which are part of the normal equipment  and included in  the price 
thereof or which are not separately invoiced, shall be regarded as one with the piece of 
equipment, machine, apparatus or vehicle in question. 

Article 10 

Sets 

Sets,  as  defined  in  General  Rule 3  of  the  Harmonized  System,  shall  be  regarded  as 
originating  when  all  component  products  are  originating.  Nevertheless,  when  a  set  is 
composed  of  originating  and  non-originating  products,  the  set  as  a  whole  shall  be 
regarded as originating, provided that the value of the non-originating products does not 
exceed 15 per cent of the ex-works price of the set. 

Article 11 

Neutral elements 

In order to determine whether a product originates, it shall not be necessary to determine 
the origin of the following which might be used in its manufacture: 

(a)  energy and fuel; 

(b)  plant and equipment; 

(c)  machines and tools; 

(d)  goods  which  do  not  enter  and  which  are  not  intended  to  enter  into  the  final 
composition of the product.

conditions  for  acquiring  originating  status  set  out  in  Title  II  must  be  fulfilled  without 
interruption in the Community or in Croatia. 

2.  Except as provided for in Articles 3 and 4, where originating goods exported from

non-originating,  unless  it  can  be  demonstrated  to  the  satisfaction  of  the  customs 
authorities that: 

(a)  the returning goods are the same as those exported;  

and 

(b)  they  have  not  undergone  any  operation  beyond  that  necessary  to  preserve  them  in 
good condition while in that country or while being exported. 

3.  The  acquisition  of  originating  status  in  accordance  with  the  conditions  set  out  in 
Title II shall not be affected by working or processing done outside the  Community or 
Croatia on materials exported from the Community or from Croatia and subsequently re-
imported there, provided: 

(a)  the  said  materials  are  wholly  obtained  in  the  Community  or  in  Croatia  or  have 
undergone working or processing beyond the operations referred to in Article 7 prior to

4.  For the purposes of paragraph 3, the conditions for acquiring originating status set 
out in Title II shall not apply to working or processing done outside the Community or 
Croatia.  But  where,  in  the  list  in  Annex  II,  a  rule  setting  a  maximum  value  for  all  the 
non-originating materials incorporated is applied in determining the originating status of 
the  end  product,  the  total  value  of  the  non-originating  materials  incorporated  in  the 
territory  of  the  party  concerned,  taken  together  with  the  total  added  value  acquired 
outside  the  Community  or  Croatia  by  applying  the  provisions  of  this  Article,  shall  not 
exceed the stated percentage. 

5.  For the purposes of applying the provisions of paragraphs 3 and 4, 'total added value' 
shall be taken to mean all costs arising outside the Community or Croatia, including the 
value of the materials incorporated there.  

6.  The provisions of paragraphs 3 and 4 shall not apply to products which do not fulfil 
the  conditions  set  out  in  the  list  in  Annex  II  or  which  can  be  considered  sufficiently 
worked or processed only if the general tolerance fixed in Article 6(2) is applied. 

7.  The provisions of paragraphs 3 and 4 shall not apply to products of Chapters 50 to 
63 of the Harmonized System 

8.  Any working or processing of the kind covered by the provisions of this Article and 
done  outside  the  Community  or  Croatia  shall  be  done  under  the  outward  processing 
arrangements, or similar arrangements. 

Article 13 

Direct transport 

1.  The  preferential  treatment  provided  for  under  the  Agreement  applies  only  to 
products,  satisfying  the  requirements  of  this  Protocol,  which  are  transported  directly 
between  the  Community  and  Croatia.  However,  products  constituting  one  single 
consignment may be transported through other territories with, should the occasion arise, 
trans-shipment  or  temporary  warehousing  in  such  territories,  provided  that  they  remain 
under the surveillance of the customs authorities in the country of transit or warehousing 
and do not undergo operations other than unloading, reloading or any operation designed 
to preserve them in good condition. 

Originating products may be transported by pipeline across territory other than that of the 
Community or Croatia.

(c)  failing these, any substantiating documents. 

Article 14 

Exhibitions 

1.  Originating products, sent for exhibition in a country other than the Community and 
Croatia and sold after the exhibition for importation in the Community or in Croatia shall 
benefit on importation from the provisions of the Agreement provided it is shown to the 
satisfaction of the customs authorities that:

manner.  The  name  and  address  of  the  exhibition  must  be  indicated  thereon.  Where 
necessary,  additional  documentary  evidence  of  the  conditions  under  which  they  have 
been exhibited may be required.

Community or in Croatia for which a proof of origin is issued or made out in accordance 
with  the  provisions  of  Title V  shall  not  be  subject  in  the  Community  or  in  Croatia  to 
drawback of, or exemption from, customs duties of whatever kind. 

2.  The prohibition in paragraph 1 shall apply to any arrangement for refund, remission 
or non-payment, partial or complete, of customs duties or charges having an equivalent 
effect, applicable in the Community or in Croatia to materials used in the manufacture, 
where  such  refund,  remission  or  non-payment  applies,  expressly  or  in  effect,  when 
products obtained from the said materials are exported and not when they are retained for 
home use there. 

3.  The exporter of products covered by a proof of origin shall be prepared to submit at 
any time, upon request from the customs authorities, all appropriate documents proving 
that  no  drawback  has  been  obtained  in  respect  of  the  non-originating  materials  used  in 
the manufacture of the products concerned and that all customs duties or charges having 
equivalent effect applicable to such materials have actually been paid. 

4.  The provisions of paragraphs 1 to 3 shall also apply in respect of packaging within 
the  meaning  of  Article 8(2),  accessories,  spare  parts  and  tools  within  the  meaning  of

PROOF OF ORIGIN 

Article 16 

General requirements 

1.  Products  originating  in  the  Community  shall,  on  importation  into  Croatia  and 
products originating in Croatia shall, on importation into the Community benefit from the 
Agreement upon submission of either: 

(a) 

a movement certificate EUR.1, a specimen of which appears in Annex III; or 

(b) 
in the  cases specified  in  Article 22(1), a declaration, subsequently referred to as 
the  "invoice  declaration",  given  by  the  exporter  on  an  invoice,  a  delivery  note  or  any 
other commercial document which describes the products concerned in sufficient detail 
to enable them to be identified; the text of the invoice declaration appears in Annex IV. 

2.  Notwithstanding  paragraph 1,  originating  products  within  the  meaning  of  this 
Protocol shall, in the cases specified in Article 27, benefit from the Agreement without it 
being necessary to submit any of the documents referred to above.

prepared to submit at any time, at the request of the customs authorities of the exporting 
country  where  the  movement  certificate  EUR.1  is  issued,  all  appropriate  documents 
proving the originating status of the products concerned as well as the fulfilment of the 
other requirements of this Protocol. 

4.  A  movement  certificate  EUR.1  shall  be  issued  by  the  customs  authorities  of  a 
Member  State  of  the  Community  or  of  Croatia  if  the  products  concerned  can  be

necessary to verify the originating status of the products and the fulfilment of the other 
requirements of this Protocol. For this purpose, they shall have the right to call for any 
evidence  and  to  carry  out  any  inspection  of  the  exporter's  accounts  or  any  other  check 
considered appropriate. They shall also ensure that the forms referred to in paragraph 2

the  place  and  date  of  exportation  of  the  products  to  which  the  movement  certificate 
EUR.1 relates, and state the reasons for his request.

3.  The  customs  authorities  may  issue  a  movement  certificate  EUR.1  retrospectively 
only after verifying that the information supplied in the exporter's application agrees with 
that in the corresponding file. 

4.  Movement  certificates  EUR.1  issued  retrospectively  must  be  endorsed  with  the 
following phrase in English: 

"ISSUED RETROSPECTIVELY", 

5.  The endorsement referred to in paragraph 4 shall be inserted in the "Remarks" box 
of the movement certificate EUR.1. 

Article 19 

Issue of a duplicate movement certificate EUR.1 

1. 
In  the  event  of  theft,  loss  or  destruction  of  a  movement  certificate  EUR.1,  the 
exporter may apply to the customs authorities which issued it for a duplicate made out on 
the basis of the export documents in their possession. 

2.  The  duplicate  issued  in  this  way  must  be  endorsed  with  the  following  word  in 
English: 

"DUPLICATE" 

3.  The endorsement referred to in paragraph 2 shall be inserted in the "Remarks" box

Issue of movement certificates EUR.1 on the basis of a proof of origin issued or 
made out previously 

When  originating  products  are  placed  under  the  control  of  a  customs  office  in  the 
Community or in  Croatia, it shall be possible to replace the original proof of origin by 
one or more movement certificates EUR.1 for the purpose of sending all or some of these 
products  elsewhere  within  the  Community  or  Croatia.  The  replacement  movement 
certificate(s)  EUR.1  shall  be  issued  by  the  customs  office  under  whose  control  the 
products are placed.

Article 21 

Accounting segregation 

1.  Where  considerable  cost  or  material  difficulties  arise  in  keeping  separate  stocks  of 
originating  and  non-originating  materials  which  are  identical  and  interchangeable,  the 
customs  authorities  may,  at  the  written  request  of  those  concerned,  authorise  the  so-
called "accounting segregation" method to be used for managing such stocks. 

2.  This method must be able to ensure that, for a specific reference-period, the number 
of  products  obtained  which  could  be  considered  as  "originating"  is  the  same  as  that 
which would have been obtained if there had been physical segregation of the stocks. 

3.  The  customs  authorities  may  grant  such  authorisation,  subject  to  any  conditions 
deemed appropriate. 

4.  This method is recorded and applied on the basis of the general accounting principles 
applicable in the country where the product was manufactured. 

5.  The  beneficiary  of  this  facilitation  may  issue  or  apply  for  proofs  of  origin,  as  the 
case may be, for the quantity of products which may be considered as originating. At the 
request of the customs authorities, the beneficiary shall provide a statement of how the 
quantities have been managed. 

6.  The  customs  authorities  shall  monitor  the  use  made  of  the  authorisation  and  may 
withdraw  it  at  any  time  whenever  the  beneficiary  makes  improper  use  of  the 
authorisation in any manner whatsoever or fails to fulfil any of the other conditions laid 
down in this Protocol. 

Article 22 

Conditions for making out an invoice declaration 

1.  An invoice declaration as referred to in Article 16(1)(b) may be made out:

3.  The exporter making out an invoice declaration shall be prepared to submit at any 
time,  at  the  request  of  the  customs  authorities  of  the  exporting  country,  all  appropriate 
documents  proving  the  originating  status  of  the  products  concerned  as  well  as  the 
fulfilment of the other requirements of this Protocol. 

4.  An  invoice  declaration  shall  be  made  out  by  the  exporter  by  typing,  stamping  or 
printing  on  the  invoice,  the  delivery  note  or  another  commercial  document,  the 
declaration, the text of which appears in Annex IV, using one of the linguistic versions 
set out in that Annex and in accordance with the provisions of the domestic law of the 
exporting country. If the declaration is hand-written, it shall be written in ink in printed 
characters. 

5. 
Invoice declarations shall bear the original signature of the exporter in manuscript. 
However, an approved exporter within the meaning of Article 23 shall not be required to 
sign  such  declarations  provided  that  he  gives  the  customs  authorities  of  the  exporting 
country  a  written  undertaking  that  he  accepts  full  responsibility  for  any  invoice 
declaration which identifies him as if it had been signed in manuscript by him. 

6.  An invoice declaration may be made out by the exporter when the products to which 
it  relates  are  exported,  or  after  exportation  on  condition  that  it  is  presented  in  the 
importing country no longer than two years after the importation of the products to which 
it relates. 

Article 23 

Approved exporter 

1.  The  customs  authorities  of  the  exporting  country  may  authorise  any  exporter, 
hereinafter referred to as 'approved exporter', who makes frequent shipments of products 
under  this  Agreement  to  make  out  invoice  declarations  irrespective  of  the  value  of  the 
products concerned. An exporter seeking such authorisation must offer to the satisfaction 
of the customs authorities all guarantees necessary to verify the originating status of the 
products as well as the fulfilment of the other requirements of this Protocol. 

2.  The  customs  authorities  may  grant  the  status  of  approved  exporter  subject  to  any 
conditions which they consider appropriate. 

3.  The customs authorities shall grant to the approved exporter a customs authorisation 
number which shall appear on the invoice declaration.

5.  The customs authorities may withdraw the authorisation at any time. They shall do 
so  where  the  approved  exporter  no  longer  offers  the  guarantees  referred  to  in 
paragraph 1,  no  longer  fulfils  the  conditions  referred  to  in  paragraph 2  or  otherwise 
makes an incorrect use of the authorisation. 

Article 24 

Validity of proof of origin 

1.  A  proof  of  origin  shall  be  valid  for  four  months  from  the  date  of  issue  in  the 
exporting  country,  and  must  be  submitted  within  the  said  period  to  the  customs 
authorities of the importing country. 

2.  Proofs  of  origin  which  are  submitted  to  the  customs  authorities  of  the  importing 
country after the final date for presentation specified in paragraph 1 may be accepted for 
the  purpose  of  applying  preferential  treatment,  where  the  failure  to  submit  these 
documents by the final date set is due to exceptional circumstances. 

3. 
In  other  cases  of  belated  presentation,  the  customs  authorities  of  the  importing 
country may accept the proofs of origin where the products have been submitted before 
the said final date. 

Article 25 

Submission of proof of origin 

Proofs of origin shall be submitted to the customs authorities of the importing country in 
accordance  with  the  procedures  applicable  in  that  country.  The  said  authorities  may 
require a translation of a proof of origin and may also require the import declaration to be 
accompanied  by  a  statement  from  the  importer  to  the  effect  that  the  products  meet  the 
conditions required for the implementation of the Agreement. 

Article 26 

Importation by instalments 

Where,  at  the  request  of  the  importer  and  on  the  conditions  laid  down  by  the  customs 
authorities  of  the  importing  country,  dismantled  or  non-assembled  products  within  the 
meaning  of  General  Rule 2(a)  of  the  Harmonized  System  falling  within  Sections  XVI 
and XVII  or  headings 7308  and 9406  of  the  Harmonized  System  are  imported  by

Exemptions from proof of origin 

1.  Products sent as small packages from private persons to private persons or forming 
part  of  travellers'  personal  luggage  shall  be  admitted  as  originating  products  without 
requiring  the  submission  of  a  proof  of  origin,  provided  that  such  products  are  not 
imported  by  way  of  trade  and  have  been  declared  as  meeting  the  requirements  of  this 
Protocol and where there is no doubt as to the veracity of such a declaration. In the case 
of  products  sent  by  post, 
the  customs 
this  declaration  can  be  made  on 
declaration CN22/CN23 or on a sheet of paper annexed to that document. 

2. 
Imports which are occasional and consist solely of products for the personal use of 
the recipients or travellers or their families shall not be considered as imports by way of 
trade  if  it  is  evident  from  the  nature  and  quantity  of  the  products  that  no  commercial 
purpose is in view. 

3.  Furthermore, the total value of these products shall not exceed EUR 500 in the case 
of  small  packages  or  EUR 1,200  in  the  case  of  products  forming  part  of  travellers' 
personal luggage.

Article 30 

Discrepancies and formal errors 

1.  The discovery of slight discrepancies between the statements made in the proof of 
origin and those made in the documents submitted to the customs office for the purpose 
of carrying out the formalities for importing the products shall not ipso facto render the 
proof of origin null and void if it is duly established that this document does correspond 
to the products submitted. 

2.  Obvious  formal  errors  such  as  typing  errors  on  a  proof  of  origin  should  not  cause 
this document to be rejected if these errors are not such as to create doubts concerning 
the correctness of the statements made in this document. 

Article 31 

Amounts expressed in euro 

1.  For  the  application  of  the  provisions  of  Article  22(1)(b)  and  Article  27(3)  in  cases 
where  products  are  invoiced  in  a  currency  other  than  euro,  amounts  in  the  national 
currencies  of  the  Member  States  of  the  Community  or  of  Croatia  equivalent  to  the 
amounts expressed in euro shall be fixed annually by each of the countries concerned.

2.  A consignment shall benefit from the provisions of Article 22(1)(b) or Article 27(3) 
by reference to the currency in which the invoice is drawn up, according to the amount 
fixed by the country concerned. 

3.  The amounts to be used in any given national currency shall be the equivalent in that 
currency  of  the  amounts  expressed  in  euro  as  at  the  first  working  day  of  October.  The 
amounts shall be communicated to the Commission of the European Communities by 15 
October  and  shall  apply  from  1  January  the  following  year.  The  Commission  of  the 
European Communities shall notify all countries concerned of the relevant amounts. 

4.  A country may round up or down the amount resulting from the conversion into its 
national  currency  of  an  amount  expressed  in  euro.  The  rounded-off  amount  may  not 
differ from the amount resulting from the conversion by more than 5 per cent. A country 
may retain unchanged its national currency equivalent of an amount expressed in euro if, 
at the time of the annual adjustment provided for in paragraph 3, the conversion of that 
amount, prior to any rounding-off, results in an increase of less than 15 per cent in the 
national  currency  equivalent.  The  national  currency  equivalent  may  be  retained 
unchanged if the conversion would result in a decrease in that equivalent value. 

5.  The  amounts  expressed  in  euro  shall  be  reviewed  by  the  Stabilisation  and 
Association  Committee  at  the  request  of  the  Community  or  of  Croatia.  When  carrying 
out  this  review,  the  Stabilisation  and  Association  Committee  shall  consider  the 
desirability  of  preserving  the  effects  of  the  limits  concerned  in  real  terms.  For  this 
purpose, it may decide to modify the amounts expressed in euro.

Mutual assistance 

1.  The  customs  authorities  of  the  Member  States  of  the  Community  and  of  Croatia 
shall  provide  each  other,  through  the  Commission  of  the  European  Communities,  with 
specimen impressions of stamps used in their customs offices for the issue of movement 
certificates  EUR.1  and  with  the  addresses  of  the  customs  authorities  responsible  for 
verifying those certificates and invoice declarations. 

In  order  to  ensure  the  proper  application  of  this  Protocol,  the  Community  and 
2. 
Croatia  shall  assist  each  other,  through  the  competent  customs  administrations,  in 
checking the authenticity of the movement certificates EUR.1 or the invoice declarations 
and the correctness of the information given in these documents. 

Article 33 

Verification of proofs of origin 

1.  Subsequent  verifications  of  proofs  of  origin  shall  be  carried  out  at  random  or 
whenever the customs authorities of the importing country have reasonable doubts as to 
the  authenticity  of  such  documents,  the  originating  status  of  the  products  concerned  or 
the fulfilment of the other requirements of this Protocol. 

2.  For  the  purposes  of  implementing  the  provisions  of  paragraph  1,  the  customs 
authorities of the importing country shall return the movement certificate EUR.1 and the 
invoice, if it has been submitted, the invoice declaration, or a copy of these documents, to 
the  customs  authorities  of  the  exporting  country  giving,  where  appropriate,  the  reasons 
for the enquiry. Any documents and information obtained suggesting that the information 
given on the proof of origin is incorrect shall be forwarded in support of the request for 
verification. 

3.  The  verification  shall  be  carried  out  by  the  customs  authorities  of  the  exporting 
country. For this purpose, they shall have the right to call for any evidence and to carry 
out any inspection of the exporter's accounts or any other check considered appropriate. 

If the customs authorities of the importing country decide to suspend the granting of 
4. 
preferential  treatment  to  the  products  concerned  while  awaiting  the  results  of  the 
verification,  release  of  the  products  shall  be  offered  to  the  importer  subject  to  any 
precautionary measures judged necessary. 

EN 

74 

   EN 

 
5.  The customs authorities requesting the verification shall be informed of the results 
of  this  verification  as  soon  as  possible.  These  results  must  indicate  clearly  whether  the 
documents  are  authentic  and  whether  the  products  concerned  can  be  considered  as 
products  originating  in  the  Community,  in  Croatia  or  in  one  of  the  other  countries  or 
territories referred to in Articles 3 and 4 and fulfil the other requirements of this Protocol.  

6. 
If in cases of reasonable doubt there is no reply within ten months of the date of the 
verification  request  or  if  the  reply  does  not  contain  sufficient  information  to  determine 
the  authenticity  of  the  document  in  question  or  the  real  origin  of  the  products,  the 
requesting  customs  authorities  shall,  except  in  exceptional  circumstances,  refuse 
entitlement to the preferences.

be  settled  between  the  customs  authorities  requesting  a  verification  and  the  customs 
authorities responsible for carrying out this verification or where they raise a question as 
to  the  interpretation  of  this  Protocol,  they  shall  be  submitted  to  the  Stabilisation  and 
Association Committee. 

In all cases the settlement of disputes between the importer and the customs authorities of 
the importing country shall be under the legislation of the said country. 

Article 35 

Penalties 

Penalties  shall  be  imposed  on  any  person  who  draws  up,  or  causes  to  be  drawn  up,  a 
document  which  contains  incorrect  information  for  the  purpose  of  obtaining  a 
preferential treatment for products. 

Article 36 

Free zones 

1.  The  Community  and  Croatia  shall  take  all  necessary  steps  to  ensure  that  products 
traded under cover of a proof of origin which in the course of transport use a free zone 
situated in their territory, are not substituted by other goods and do not undergo handling 
other than normal operations designed to prevent their deterioration.

ANNEX I 

INTRODUCTORY NOTES TO THE LIST IN ANNEX II 

Note 1: 

The  list  sets  out  the  conditions  required  for  all  products  to  be  considered  as 
sufficiently worked or processed within the meaning of Article 6 of the Protocol. 

Note 2: 

The  first  two  columns  in  the  list  describe  the  product  obtained.  The  first 
2.1. 
column gives the heading number or chapter number used in the Harmonized System 
and  the  second  column  gives  the  description  of  goods  used  in  that  system  for  that 
heading  or  chapter.  For  each  entry  in  the  first  two  columns,  a  rule  is  specified  in 
column 3  or 4.  Where,  in  some  cases,  the  entry  in  the  first  column  is  preceded  by 
an "ex",  this  signifies  that  the  rules  in  column 3  or 4  apply  only  to  the  part  of  that 
heading as described in column 2. 

2.2.  Where several heading numbers are grouped together in column 1 or a chapter 
number  is  given  and  the  description  of  products  in  column 2  is  therefore  given  in 
general terms, the adjacent rules in column 3 or 4 apply to all products which, under 
the  Harmonized  System,  are  classified  in  headings  of  the  chapter  or  in  any  of  the 
headings grouped together in column 1. 

2.3.  Where there are different rules in the list applying to different products within 
a heading, each indent contains the description of that part of the heading covered by 
the adjacent rules in column 3 or 4. 

2.4.  Where,  for  an  entry  in  the  first  two  columns,  a  rule  is  specified  in  both 
columns 3 and 4, the exporter may opt, as an alternative, to apply either the rule set 
out in column 3 or that set out in column 4. If no origin rule is given in column 4, the 
rule set out in column 3 is to be applied. 

Note 3: 

3.1. 
The  provisions  of  Article 6  of  the  Protocol,  concerning  products  having 
acquired originating status which are used in the manufacture of other products, shall 
apply,  regardless  of  whether  this  status  has  been  acquired  inside  the  factory  where 
these products are used or in another factory in a contracting party. 

Example: 

An  engine  of  heading 8407,  for  which  the  rule  states  that  the  value  of  the  non-
originating  materials  which  may  be  incorporated  may  not  exceed  40 %  of  the  ex-
works  price,  is  made  from  "other  alloy  steel  roughly  shaped  by  forging"  of 
heading ex 7224. 

EN 

80 

   EN

 
If this forging has been forged in the Community from a non-originating ingot, it has 
already acquired originating status by virtue of the rule for heading ex 7224 in the list. 
The  forging  can  then  count  as  originating  in  the  value-calculation  for  the  engine, 
regardless of whether it was produced in the same factory or in another factory in the 
Community.  The  value  of  the  non-originating  ingot  is  thus  not  taken  into  account 
when adding up the value of the non-originating materials used. 

The rule in the list represents the minimum amount of working or processing 
3.2. 
required, and the carrying-out of more working or processing also confers originating 
status;  conversely,  the  carrying-out  of  less  working  or  processing  cannot  confer 
originating  status.  Thus,  if  a  rule  provides  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. 

3.3.  Without prejudice to Note 3.2, where a rule uses the expression "Manufacture 
from  materials  of  any  heading",  then  materials  of  any  heading(s)  (even  materials  of 
the same description and heading as the product) may be used, subject, however,  to 
any specific limitations which may also be contained in the rule. 

However, the expression "Manufacture from materials of any heading, including other 
materials  of  heading ..."  or  "Manufacture  from  materials  of  any  heading,  including 
other  materials  of  the  same  heading  as  the  product"  means  that  materials  of  any 
heading(s) may be used, except those of the same description as the product as given 
in column 2 of the list. 

3.4.  When  a  rule  in  the  list  specifies  that  a  product  may  be  manufactured  from 
more than one material, this means that one or more materials may be used. It does 
not require that all be used. 

Example: 

The rule for fabrics of headings 5208 to 5212 provides that natural fibres may be used 
and that chemical materials, among other materials, may also be used. This does not 
mean that both have to be used; it is possible to use one or the other, or both. 

3.5.  Where a rule in the list specifies that a product must be manufactured from a 
particular material, the condition obviously does not prevent the use of other materials 
which,  because  of  their  inherent  nature,  cannot  satisfy  the  rule.  (See  also  Note 6.2 
below in relation to textiles). 

Example: 

The rule for prepared  foods of heading 1904, which specifically excludes the use of 
cereals and their derivatives, does not prevent the use of mineral salts, chemicals and 
other additives which are not products from cereals. 

However,  this  does  not  apply  to  products  which,  although  they  cannot  be 
manufactured from the particular materials specified in the list, can be produced from 
a material of the same nature at an earlier stage of manufacture. 

Example:

In the case of an article of apparel of ex Chapter 62 made from non-woven materials, 
if  the  use  of  only  non-originating  yarn  is  allowed  for  this  class  of  article,  it  is  not 
possible to start from non-woven cloth – even if non-woven cloths cannot normally be 
made  from  yarn.  In  such  cases,  the  starting material would normally be at the  stage 
before yarn – that is, the fibre stage. 

3.6.  Where, in a rule in the list, two percentages are given for the maximum value 
of  non-originating  materials  that  can  be  used,  then  these  percentages  may  not  be 
added  together.  In  other  words,  the  maximum  value  of  all  the  non-originating 
materials  used  may  never  exceed  the  higher  of  the  percentages  given.  Furthermore, 
the individual percentages must not be exceeded, in relation to the particular materials 
to which they apply. 

Note 4: 

The  term  "natural  fibres"  is  used  in  the  list  to  refer  to  fibres  other  than 
4.1. 
artificial or synthetic fibres. It is restricted to the stages before spinning takes place, 
including  waste,  and,  unless  otherwise  specified,  includes  fibres  which  have  been 
carded, combed or otherwise processed, but not spun. 

4.2. 
The  term  "natural  fibres"  includes  horsehair  of  heading 0503,  silk  of 
headings 5002  and 5003,  as  well  as  wool-fibres  and  fine  or  coarse  animal  hair  of 
headings 5101  to 5105,  cotton  fibres  of  headings 5201  to 5203,  and  other  vegetable 
fibres of headings 5301 to 5305. 

4.3. 
The  terms  "textile  pulp",  "chemical  materials"  and  "paper-making  materials" 
are used in the list to describe the materials, not classified in Chapters 50 to 63, which 
can be used to manufacture artificial, synthetic or paper fibres or yarns. 

The  term  "man-made  staple  fibres"  is  used  in  the  list  to  refer  to  synthetic  or 

4.4. 
artificial filament tow, staple fibres or waste, of headings 5501 to 5507. 

Note 5: 

5.1.  Where,  for  a  given  product  in  the  list,  reference  is  made  to  this  Note,  the 
conditions set out in column 3 shall not be applied to any basic textile materials used 
in the manufacture of this product and which, taken together, represent 10 % or less of 
the  total  weight  of  all  the  basic  textile  materials  used.  (See  also  Notes 5.3  and 5.4 
below.) 

5.2.  However, the tolerance mentioned in Note 5.1 may be applied only to mixed 
products which have been made from two or more basic textile materials. 

The following are the basic textile materials:

products of heading 5605 (metallised yarn) 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  a 
transparent or coloured adhesive between two layers of plastic film, 

- 

other products of heading 5605. 

Example: 

A  yarn,  of  heading 5205,  made  from  cotton  fibres  of  heading 5203  and  synthetic 
staple  fibres  of  heading 5506,  is  a  mixed  yarn.  Therefore,  non-originating  synthetic 
staple  fibres  which  do  not  satisfy  the  origin-rules  (which  require  manufacture  from 
chemical materials or textile pulp) may be used, provided that their total weight does 
not exceed 10 % of the weight of the yarn. 

Example: 

A  woollen  fabric,  of  heading 5112,  made  from  woollen  yarn  of  heading 5107  and 
synthetic yarn of staple fibres of heading 5509, is a mixed fabric. Therefore, synthetic 
yarn  which  does  not  satisfy  the  origin-rules  (which  require  manufacture  from 
chemical materials or textile pulp), or woollen yarn which 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, provided 
that their total weight does not exceed 10 % of the weight of the fabric. 

Example: 

Tufted  textile  fabric,  of  heading 5802,  made  from  cotton  yarn  of  heading 5205  and 
cotton fabric of heading 5210, is a only mixed product if the cotton fabric is itself a 
mixed  fabric  made  from  yarns  classified  in  two  separate  headings,  or  if  the  cotton 
yarns used are themselves mixtures. 

Example: 

If the tufted textile fabric concerned had been made from cotton yarn of heading 5205 
and synthetic fabric of heading 5407, then, obviously, the yarns used are two separate 
basic textile materials and the tufted textile fabric is, accordingly, a mixed product. 

In the case of products incorporating  "yarn made  of polyurethane  segmented 
5.3. 
with flexible segments of polyether, whether or not gimped", this tolerance is 20 % in 
respect of this yarn. 

5.4. 
In the case of products 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  a  transparent  or  coloured 
adhesive between two layers of plastic film", this tolerance is 30 % in respect of this 
strip.

Note 6: 

6.1.  Where,  in  the  list,  reference  is  made  to  this  Note,  textile  materials  (with  the 
exception of linings and interlinings), which do not satisfy the rule set out in the list in 
column 3  for  the  made-up  product  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. 

6.2.  Without  prejudice  to  Note 6.3,  materials,  which  are  not  classified  within 
Chapters 50 to 63, may be used freely in the manufacture of textile products, 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. 

6.3.  Where  a  percentage-rule  applies,  the  value  of  materials  which  are  not 
classified  within  Chapters 50  to 63  must  be  taken  into  account  when  calculating  the 
value of the non-originating materials incorporated.

than filtering; 

in respect of heavy oils of heading ex 2710 only, treatment with hydrogen, at a 
(m) 
pressure of more than 20 bar and a temperature of more than 250 °C, with the use of a 
catalyst, other than to effect desulphurisation, when the hydrogen constitutes an active 
element in a chemical reaction. The further  treatment,  with  hydrogen,  of  lubricating 
oils  of  heading ex 2710  (e.g.  hydrofinishing  or  decolourisation),  in  order,  more 
especially,  to  improve  colour  or  stability  shall  not,  however,  be  deemed  to  be  a 
specific process; 

(n) 
in  respect  of  fuel  oils  of  heading ex 2710  only,  atmospheric  distillation,  on 
condition that less than 30 % of these products distils, by volume, including losses, at 
300 °C, by the ASTM D 86 method; 

in  respect  of  heavy  oils  other  than  gas  oils  and  fuel  oils  of  heading ex 2710 

(o) 
only, treatment by means of a high-frequency electrical brush-discharge;
