(2)


As noted in recital 252 of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2025/261, the Commission comitted to monitor biodiesel and sustainable aviation fuels (SAF) flows after the imposition of anti-dumping measures on Chinese biodiesel. Therefore, separate TARIC codes were established for SAF as defined in Article 1 of this Implementing Regulation and originating in the People’s Republic of China for monitoring purpose. However, to better monitor sustainable aviation fuels, additional TARIC codes should be added to CN codes 2710 19 11 , 2710 19 15 , 2710 19 21 , 2710 19 25  and 2710 19 29 .












(3)


In view of the above, it is considered necessary to amend the original Regulation to include additional TARIC codes in its Article 1(1).

The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee established by Article 15(1) Regulation (EU) 2016/1036,
