Proofs of origin properly issued by either Jordan or a new Member State in the framework of preferential agreements or autonomous arrangements applied between them shall be accepted in the respective countries under this Protocol, provided that:(a) the acquisition of such origin confers preferential tariff treatment on the basis of the preferential tariff measures contained in this Agreement or in the Community System of Generalised Preferences;(b) the proof of origin and the transport documents were issued no later than the day before the date of accession;(c) the proof of origin is submitted to the customs authorities within the period of four months from the date of accession.Where goods were declared for importation in either Jordan or a new Member State, prior to the date of accession, under preferential agreements or autonomous arrangements applied between Jordan and that new Member State at that time, proof of origin issued retrospectively under those agreements or arrangements may also be accepted, provided that it is submitted to the customs authorities within the period of four months from the date of accession.2. Jordan and the new Member States are authorised to retain the authorisations with which the status of "approved exporters" has been granted in the framework of preferential agreements or autonomous arrangements applied between them, provided that:(a) this is also provided for in the agreement concluded between Jordan and the Community prior to the date of accession; and(b) the approved exporters apply the rules of origin in force under that agreement.These authorisations shall be replaced no later than one year after the date of accession, by new authorisations issued under the terms of the Agreement.3. Requests for subsequent verification of proof of origin issued under the preferential agreements or autonomous arrangements referred to in paragraphs 1 and 2 above can be presented by the competent customs authorities of either Jordan or the new Member States and shall be accepted by those authorities for a period of three years after issue of the proof of origin concerned.Article 4Goods in transit1. The provisions of the Agreement may be applied to goods exported either from Jordan to one of the new Member States or from one of the new Member States to Jordan, which comply with the provisions of Protocol 3 and, on the date of accession, are either en route or in temporary storage, in a customs warehouse or in a free zone in Jordan or in that new Member State.2. Preferential treatment may be granted in such cases, subject to the submission to the customs authorities of the importing country, within four months of the date of accession, of proof of origin issued retrospectively by the customs authorities of the exporting country.GENERAL AND FINAL PROVISIONSArticle 5The Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan undertakes that it shall neither make any claim, request or referral nor modify or withdraw any concession pursuant to GATT 1994 Articles XXIV.6 and XXVIII in relation to this enlargement of the Community.Article 6This Protocol shall form an integral part of the Euro-Mediterranean Agreement.
