Proposal for a 

COUNCIL DECISION 

on the conclusion, on behalf of the European Union, of the Agreement between the 
European Union and the Government of the Russian Federation on trade in parts and 
components of motor vehicles between the European Union and the Russian Federation 

 
 
  
 
EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM 

In  the  context  of  the  accession  of  the  Russian  Federation  to  the  WTO,  concerns  have  been 
raised  about  the  impact  of  Russia's  regime  for  investment  in  the  automotive  sector,  as 
amended  on  24  December  2010.  Theauto  investment  programme  offers  investors  who 
establish car production facilities in the Russian Federation reduced import customs duties for 
car  parts  and  components  in  return  for  an  obligation  to  meet  local  content  and  other 
localisation  requirements.  According  to  the  agreed  terms  of  Russia's  accession,  this  auto 
investment programme will be exempt from the obligation of the Russian Federation to ensure 
that all laws, regulations and other measures applied in the Russian Federation that are related 
to 
the 
WTO Agreement,  including  the Agreement  on  Trade-Related  Investment  Measures  (TRIMS 
Agreement) until 1 July 2018. In order to reduce the risk that this investment regime may lead 
to  delocalisation  of  the  production  of  parts  and  components  of  motor  vehicles  from  the  EU 
during  this  transitional  period,  the  European  Commission  has  negotiated  a  bilateral 
Agreement with the Russian Federation on trade in parts and components of motor vehicles 
between the European Union and the Government of Russian Federation (hereinafter referred 
to as the "Agreement."). 

investment  measures  are  consistent  with 

the  provisions  of 

trade-related 

The  objective  of  the  Agreement  is  to  establish  a  compensation  mechanism  to  ensure  that 
exports from the European Union to the Russian Federation of parts and components of motor 
vehicles  from  the  EU  do  not  decrease  as  a  result  of  the  application  of  the  auto  investment 
programme  established  in  Order  No.  73/81/58n  of  the  Ministry  of  Economic  Development 
and  Trade  of  the  Russian  Federation,  the  Ministry  of  Energy  and  Industry  of  the  Russian 
Federation  and  the  Ministry  of  Finance  of  the  Russian  Federation  of  15  April  2005  on  the 
Approval of the Procedure Determining the Notion "industrial assembly" and Establishing the 
Application of the Notion in the Importation into the Territory of the Russian Federation of 
Motor Components for the Manufacture of Motor Transport Vehicles of Headings 8701-8705 
of  the  CCFEA  and  their  Units  and  Sets,  as  amended  by  Order  No.  678/1289/184n  of  24 
December 2010. 

The  Agreement  foresees  that  if  EU  exports  of  those  parts  and  components  to  the  Russian 
Federation fall, the Russian Federation must allow the import of parts and components of EU 
origin at reduced import customs duties in quantities equal to the decrease of EU exports. The 
mechanism will be triggered by a 3% fall in EU exports during a 12 month period compared 
to  a  threshold  based  on  the  value  of  EU  exports  to  the  Russian  Federation  in  2010.  If  the 
compensation mechanism is triggered, it would apply for a minimum of 12 months and would 
be  reviewed  as  necessary  every  12  months  afterwards.  In  exceptional  economic 
circumstances,  measured  by  a  significant  fall  in  the  total  number  of  new  car  sales  in  the 
Russian Federation, in the trigger year as compared to the preceding year, as defined in the 
agreement,  the  compensation  mechanism  would  not  apply.  The  Russian  Federation  would 
administer  the  compensation  quota  by  means  of  an  import  licensing  system.  Where  the 
compensation  quota  is  used  by  investors  who  have  concluded  investment  agreements  under 
the  auto  investment  programme,  such  imports  can  be  deducted  from  the  overall  yearly 
production  by  those  investors  in  the  given  year,  against  which  the  general  local  content 
requirement of the auto investment programme applies.

In order to ensure the effective operation of the mechanism provided for in the Agreement by 
the  time  of  the  accession  of  the  Russian  Federation  to  the  WTO,  the  Agreement  should  be 
applied provisionally from the date of such accession.

REAFFIRMING  their  rights  and  obligations  under  the  Agreement  establishing  the  World 
Trade Organisation; 

HAVE AGREED AS FOLLOWS: 

Article 1 

Objective and scope 

This  Agreement  is  aimed  at  establishing  a  mechanism  (hereinafter  referred  to  as 
"compensation  mechanism")  to  ensure  that  exports  from  the  European  Union  (hereinafter 
referred  to  as  the  "EU")  into  the  Russian  Federation  (hereinafter  referred  to  as  "Russia")  of 
parts and components of motor vehicles as defined in Annexes 1 and 2 of this Agreement do 
not decrease following the entry into force of the investment regime in the automotive sector 
established in Order No. 73/81/58n of the Ministry of Economic Development and Trade of 
the Russian Federation, the Ministry of Energy and Industry of the Russian Federation and the 
Ministry  of  Finance  of  the  Russian  Federation  of  15  April  2005  on  the  Approval  of  the 
Procedure Determining the Notion "industrial assembly" and Establishing the Application of 
the  Notion  in  the  Importation  into  the  Territory  of  the  Russian  Federation  of  Motor

1. 

For the purposes of this Agreement: 

"covered products" means any products listed in Annexes 1 and 2 of this Agreement; 

"EU exports" means exports from the EU into Russia;  

"products of EU origin" refers to goods originating in the EU according to the rules 
of origin defined in Annex 5 to this Agreement; and 

"general  local  content  requirement"  means  the  average  annual  level  of  production

Suspension or reduction of import customs duties 

If the value of EU exports of covered products in a given calendar year (hereinafter 
referred  to  as  "trigger  year")  decreases  compared  to  the  relevant  threshold  level  as 
referred  to  in  Article  4  of  this  Agreement,  Russia  shall  apply  the  relevant  import 
customs duties set out in Annexes 1 and 2 to this Agreement to an amount of imports 
of covered products of EU origin determined in accordance with paragraph 2 of this 
Article (hereinafter referred to as the "compensation quota”). 

The value of each compensation quota shall correspond to the difference (expressed 
in  the  United  States  dollar)  between  the  threshold  level  for  the  covered  products 
concerned  and  the  value  of  EU  exports  of  the  covered  products  concerned  in  the 
trigger year expressed in the same currency.  

Russia shall ensure the application of any compensation quota pursuant to paragraph 
1 of this Article in a manner that is consistent with its WTO obligations. To this end, 
Russia  shall  ensure  that  the  EU  share  of  a  larger  tariff-rate  quota  applied  in 
accordance  with  Article  XIII  of  the  GATT  1994  shall  be  equal  to  the  size  of  the 
compensation quota. 

While the size of the compensation quota(s) shall be established taking into account 
the  evolution  of  trade  for  all  tariff  lines  contained  in  Annexes  1  and  2  of  this 
Agreement respectively, imports of products under tariff headings 8707 10 and 8707 
90 shall not be allowed within the compensation quotas.  

Article 4 

Definition of the thresholds 

1. 

The  compensation  mechanism  shall  be  triggered  on  the  basis  of  one  or  both  of  the 
following thresholds, as the case may be: 

(a) 

the total  value of  EU exports of engines listed in Annex 1 of this Agreement 
into  Russia  in  year  2010,  expressed  in  the  United  States  dollar  (hereinafter 
referred to as "US dollars"); and

Article 5 

Triggering of the compensation mechanism 

On  1st  March  of  each  calendar  year,  the  Parties  shall  review  the  statistics  of  EU 
exports  of  covered  products  during  the  previous  calendar  year  provided  by  Russia 
pursuant to Article 10 of this Agreement. 

The  compensation  mechanism  shall  be  triggered  when  the  value  of  EU  exports  of 
covered products during a trigger year falls by more than 3% below one or both of 
the relevant thresholds set out in Annex 3 of this Agreement.  

The  EU  can  trigger  the  compensation  mechanism  by  written  notification  to  Russia 
based  on  the  statistics  to  be  provided  by  Russia  pursuant  to  Article  10  of  this 
Agreement. For the first triggering period, Russia shall adopt compensation measures 
no later than three months after the date of receipt of such written notification. Where 
a  compensation  quota  is  already  in  place,  Article  7  paragraph  2  of  this  Agreement 
shall apply. The first calendar year to be monitored as a possible trigger year shall be 
the year 2012.  

Article 6 

Exceptional circumstances 

In  case  the  conditions  for  triggering  the  compensation  mechanism  established  in 
Article 5 of this Agreement are met but a significant decrease of the total number of 
new cars sold in Russia (expressed in units) occurs in the trigger year compared to the 
preceding year, the following shall apply: 

(a) 

if  the  rate  of  the  decrease  of  sales  of  new  cars  is  at  least  25%  but  does  not 
exceed 45%,  the size of  the otherwise  applicable compensation quota shall be 
calculated in the following way: 

(i) 

(ii) 

if  the  decrease  of  sales  of  new  cars  reaches  25%,  the  value  of  the 
compensation quota will be reduced by 25%;  

for  any  further  decrease  between  25%  and  45%,  each  1  %  decrease  of 
sales of new cars will result in a further 3,75% decrease of the value of 
the compensation quota. Thereby, when the decrease of the sales of new 
cars reaches 45%, the compensation quota will be zero.

The Russian authorities shall provide the Commission statistics concerning the sales 
of new cars (in units) in Russia in accordance with Annex 4 to this Agreement. 

The Russian authorities shall inform the Commission promptly of their intentions to 
apply  this  Article  and  shall  provide  the  necessary  statistics  and  analysis  providing 
evidence  that  the  conditions  of  this  Article  have  been  met.  Consultations  shall  take 
place at the request of the Commission about the intention of Russia to open reduced 
quota(s) or no compensation quota(s).  

Article 7 

Scope and duration of measures taken under the compensation mechanism 

Measures taken under the compensation mechanism shall apply for a minimum period 
of  12  months  from  the  date  of  their  introduction.  Ten  months  after  the  date  of 
introduction  of  the  measures,  and,  every  12  months  afterwards,  the  size  of  the 
compensation quota shall be reviewed in light of the further evolution of EU exports 
of the covered products during the previous calendar year in the following manner:  

(a) 

(b) 

if  EU  exports  of  the  covered  products  have  reached,  in  the  last  calendar  year 
(hereinafter referred to as "reference period"), a level equal or superior to the 
respective  threshold  set  out  in  Annex  3  of  this  Agreement,  Russia  may 
terminate  the  application  of  the  compensation  quota  within  two  months  from 
the date of the review; 

if EU exports of the covered products are below the respective threshold set out 
in Annex 3 of this Agreement in the reference period, the compensation quota 
shall continue to apply for another 12 months for a value corresponding to the 
difference  between  the  threshold  and  the  value  of  the  relevant  imports  in  the 
reference period.  

In  cases  described  in  subparagraph  (b)  of  paragraph  1  of  this  Article,  Russia  shall 
ensure that the administrative measures necessary for the continued application of the 
compensation quota, with any necessary adjustment, shall be adopted at least 30 days 
before  the  end  of  the  original  period  for  which  the  compensation  quota  had  been 
opened. 

Article 8 

Allocation of the compensation quota 

The allocation of the compensation quota shall aim at ensuring the highest possible 
level  of  utilisation  of  that  quota.  To  that  end,  Russia  shall  administer  the  quota 
distribution by means of an import licensing system.  

Any  natural  or  legal  person  duly  registered  in  Russia  may  apply  for  a  license  to 
import  within  the  compensation  quota.  Covered  products  concerned  of  EU  origin 
presented  for  customs  clearance  shall  benefit  from  the  corresponding  import  duties 
set out in Annex 1 and/or Annex 2 within the compensation quota, upon submission 
of an import license and a proof of origin in accordance with the provisions of Annex 

EN

   EN 

 
5  of  this  Agreement.  Russia  shall  not  make  such  imports  within  the  compensation 
quota, or the subsequent use of such products imported within such quota, subject to 
any other additional conditions as compared to imports of the same products outside 
the compensation quota, or to any local content requirements.  

3. 

The allocation of the compensation quota to applicants shall be made promptly and 
according  to  a  method  established  by  a  legal  act  to  be  introduced  by  Russia  in 
compliance  with  the  relevant  legislation  of  the  Customs  Union  of  the  Russian 
Federation,  the  Republic  of  Belarus  and  the  Republic  of  Kazakhstan.  Russia  shall 
notify the EU of the relevant legislation as soon as it is adopted. Such method shall 
take into consideration the interests of traditional and new importers, making special 
consideration  of  requests  from  applicants  having  concluded  investment  agreements 
according  to  Order  73  and  allocate  at  least  10%  of  the  compensation  quota  to  new 
importers. 

4. 

The procedures for control of the origin of the covered products concerned are laid 
down in Annex 5 of this Agreement. 

Article 9 

Relation to investment agreements 

The  aggregate  figure  of  in-quota  imports  in  each  year  by  importers  who  have  concluded 
investment agreements under terms and conditions set out in Annex 1 and Annex 2 of Order 
73 (calculated in absolute value of those imports for components) can be deducted from the 
overall  yearly  value  of  production  by  those  investors  in  the  given  year,  against  which  the 
general local content requirement established in Order 73 applies. 

Article 10 

Monitoring

regarding  the  import  licences  issued  for  that  quota,  as  provided  in  Annex  4  of  this 
Agreement.  

The Parties shall hold consultations if a decrease of EU exports of covered products 
below the corresponding threshold are observed for a period of 12 months. After the 
entry into force of the compensation mechanism, Parties shall hold consultations on a

of  a  conciliation  panel  pursuant  to  Article  3  of  the  Decision  of  the  Cooperation 
Council established by the Agreement on Partnership and Co-operation Establishing 
a Partnership Between the European Communities and Their Member States, of One 
Part,  and  the  Russian  Federation,  of  the  Other  Part,  of  24  June  1994,  to  establish 
rules of procedure for the settlement of disputes under that Agreement, adopted on 7 
April 2004 (hereinafter, the "PCA Dispute Settlement Decision"). 

Where recourse is made to a conciliation panel under paragraph 1 of this Article, the 
provisions of the PCA Dispute Settlement Decision shall apply, with the exception of 
Article 2 of that Decision regarding consultations. It is understood that whenever that 
Decision refers to disputes regarding the Agreement on Partnership and Co-operation

The  conciliation  panel  established  in  accordance  with  paragraph  1  of  this  Article 
shall  not  have  competence  to  consider  the  compatibility  with  the  provisions  of  the 
PCA or the WTO Agreement of a measure of a Party examined by that conciliation 
panel.

Annex 5 

Rules of origin 

Section 1  

Determination of origin 

Article 1 

1. 

For the purposes of the application of a compensation quota, as described in Article 3 
of the Agreement, covered products shall be considered as goods originating in the 
country where they are: 

(a)  wholly produced within the meaning of paragraph 2 of this Article; or 

(b)  produced incorporating materials which  have not been wholly obtained there, 
provided  that  they  have  undergone  in  that  country  their  last,  substantial, 
economically  justified  processing  or  working  in  an  undertaking  equipped  for 
that purpose and resulting in the manufacture of a new product or representing 
an important stage of manufacture. 

2. 

The  expression  ‘goods  wholly  produced’  means  goods  which  are  produced  in  a 
country exclusively from goods wholly obtained or produced in that country or from 
their derivatives at any stage of production.  

Article 2 

For covered products listed in Appendix 1, the working or processing referred to in column 3 
of  that  Appendix  shall  be  regarded  as  a  process  or  operation  conferring  origin  pursuant  to 
Article 1 of this Annex. 

Article 3 

Where  the  list  of  Appendix  1  provides  that  origin  is  conferred  if  the  value  of  the  non-
originating  materials  used  does  not  exceed  a  given  percentage  of  the  ex-works  price  of  the 
products obtained, such percentage shall be calculated as follows: 

– 

– 

– 

‘value’  means  the  customs  value  at  the  time  of  import  of  the  non-originating 
materials  used  or,  if  this  is  not  known  and  cannot  be  ascertained,  the  first 
ascertainable price paid for such materials in the country of processing, 

‘ex-works  price’  means  the  ex-works  price  of  the  product  obtained  minus  any 
internal taxes which are, or may be, repaid when such product is exported, 

‘value  acquired  as  a  result  of  assembly  operations’  means  the  increase  in  value 
resulting  from  the  assembly  itself,  together  with  any  finishing  and  checking 
operations, and from the incorporation of any parts originating in the country where 

EN 

31 

   EN 

 
the  operations  in  question  were  carried  out,  including  profit  and  the  general  costs 
borne in that country as a result of the operations. 

Article 4 

1. 

2. 

Accessories,  spare  parts  or  tools  delivered  with  any  piece  of  equipment,  machine, 
apparatus  or  vehicle  which  form  part  of  its  standard  equipment  shall  be  deemed  to 
have the same origin as that piece of equipment, machine, apparatus or vehicle. 

Essential  spare  parts  for  use  with  any  piece  of  equipment,  machine,  apparatus  or 
vehicle  previously  imported  in  Russia  shall  be  deemed  to  have  the  same  origin  as 
that piece of equipment, machine, apparatus or vehicle provided the conditions laid 
down in this Annex are fulfilled.  

Article 5 

The presumption of origin referred to in Article 4 of this Annex shall be accepted only: 

– 

– 

if this is necessary for importation in Russia, 

if  the  incorporation  of  the  said  essential  spare  parts  in  the  piece  of  equipment, 
machine,  apparatus  or  vehicle  concerned  at  the  production  stage  would  not  have 
prevented  the  piece  of  equipment,  machine,  apparatus  or  vehicle  from  having  that 
origin. 

For the purposes of Article 4 of this Annex: 

Article 6 

(a) 

‘piece of equipment, machine, apparatus or vehicle’ means goods listed in Sections 
XVI, XVII and XVIII of the Harmonised system; 

(b) 

‘essential spare parts’ means parts which are: 

– 

– 

– 

components without which the proper operation of the goods referred to in (a) 
which have been imported or previously exported cannot be ensured, and 

characteristic of those goods, and 

intended  for  their  normal  maintenance  and  to  replace  parts  of  the  same  kind 
which are damaged or have become unserviceable. 

Article 7 

In case of the adoption of any legislation or amendment thereof by either Party regarding non-
preferential  rules  of  origin  applicable  to  the  covered  products,  and  at  the  request  of  either 
Party, the Parties shall hold consultations with a view to examine whether it is appropriate to 
amend this Section of the Annex.

Proof of origin 

Article 8 

1. 

2. 

Products of EU origin, as defined in Article 2 of this Agreement, to be exported into 
Russia  within  a  compensation  quota  shall  be  accompanied  by  a  certificate  of  EU 
origin  conforming  to  the  model  in  Appendix  2  to  this  Annex.  Certificates  of  EU 
origin may be issued in any official language of the EU. However, where a certificate 
of  origin  has  been  issued  in  a  language  other  than  English,  it  shall  include  a 
translation into English. 

The certificate of origin shall be certified by the competent authorities or authorized 
agencies  in  the  EU  Member  State  of  exportation  (hereinafter  referred  to  as  "the 
competent  EU  organisations")  as  to  whether  the  products  in  question  can  be 
considered products of EU origin in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 of 
this Annex. 

Article 9 

The  certificate  of  origin  shall  be  issued  only  on  application  in  writing  by  the  exporter  or, 
under  the  exporter’s  responsibility,  by  his  authorised  representative.  The  competent  EU 
organisation  shall  ensure  that  the  certificate  of  origin  is  properly  completed  and  for  this 
purpose  they  shall  request  any  necessary  documentary  evidence  or  carry  out  any  checking 
which they consider appropriate. 

Article 10 

The discovery of slight discrepancies between the statements made in the certificate of origin 
and those made in the documents produced to the Russian customs authorities for the purpose 
of carrying out the necessary formalities for importing the products shall not ipso facto cast 
doubt upon the statements in the certificate. The certificate of origin shall be accepted where 
it  may  be  established  that  the  documents  submitted  correspond  to  the  products  concerned. 
Obvious formal errors on a certificate of origin, such as typing errors, 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 that document. 

Article 11 

1. 

In the event of the theft, loss or destruction of a certificate of origin, the exporter may 
apply to the competent EU organisation which issued the document for a duplicate to 
be made out on the basis of the export documents in his possession. The duplicate of 
any such certificate or licence so issued shall bear the endorsement ‘duplicate’. 

2. 

The duplicate shall bear the date of the original certificate of origin.

Mutual assistance 

Article 12 

In order to ensure the correct application of this Annex, the EU and Russia shall offer mutual 
assistance for the checking of the authenticity of the certificates of origin issued pursuant to 
this Agreement. 

Article 13 

The  European  Commission  shall  send  to  the  Russian  customs  authorities  the  names  and 
addresses of the competent EU organisations, together with specimens of the original stamps 
they use. The European Commission shall also notify the Russian customs authorities of any 
change in these particulars.

Article 14 

Subsequent  verification  of  certificates  of  origin  shall  be  carried  out  at  random,  or 
whenever  the  Russian  customs  authorities  have  reasonable  doubt  as  to  the 
authenticity of the certificate or as to the accuracy of the information regarding the 
true origin of the products in question. 

In such cases, the Russian customs authorities shall return the certificate of origin or 
a copy thereof to the European Commission 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 its copy. The Russian 
customs  authorities  shall  also  forward  any  information  that  has  been  obtained 
suggesting that the particulars given on the said certificate are inaccurate. 

Without  prejudice  to  any  relevant  provision  of  supplementary  Protocol  agreed 
pursuant  to  Article  15  of  this  Annex,  the  results  of  the  subsequent  verifications 
carried  out  in  accordance  with  paragraphs  1  and  2  of  this  Article  shall  be 
communicated to the Russian customs authorities normally in three months and in no 
case later than six months after the enquiry mentioned in paragraph 2 of this Article. 
The information communicated shall indicate whether the disputed certificate applies 
to  the  goods  actually  exported  and  whether  these  goods  are  eligible  for  export  to 
Russia  under  the  arrangements  established  by  the  Agreement.  Subject  to  the 
protection of business confidential information, the information communicated shall 
also  include,  at  the  request  of  the  Russian  customs  authority,  copies  of  all  the 
documentation necessary to fully determine the facts, and in particular the true origin 
of the goods. 

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  by  the 
competent  EU  organisations  for  at  least  three  years  following  the  end  of  the 
verification. 

Recourse to the verification procedure specified in this Article must not constitute an 
obstacle to the release for the importation of the products in question.

More detailed provisions on the administrative cooperation regarding proof of origin between 
Russian customs authorities and competent EU organisations, as well as procedures for proof 
of  origin,  shall  be  established,  as  necessary,  in  a  supplementary  Protocol  to  this  Agreement 
not later than 9 months after the entry into force of this Agreement.
