COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2024/2652

of 10 October 2024

amending Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/761 with regard to the management of certain tariff quotas in the rice sector, the adjustment of cheese export tariff quotas for the United States and an update of the technical specifications for the IMA1 certificates for the import of dairy products from New Zealand

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 December 2013 establishing a common organisation of the markets in agricultural products and repealing Council Regulations (EEC) No 922/72, (EEC) No 234/79, (EC) No 1037/2001 and (EC) No 1234/2007 [(1)](#ntr1-L_202402652EN.000101-E0001), and in particular Article 187 thereof,

Whereas:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| (1) | Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/761 [(2)](#ntr2-L_202402652EN.000101-E0002) lays down the rules for the administration of import and export tariff quotas for agricultural products managed by a system of import and export licences. |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| (2) | Rice tariff quotas with order numbers 09.4112, 09.4117, 09.4118, 09.4119, 09.4130, 09.4154, 09.4166 and 09.4168 as laid down in Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/761 have been over-demanded for several allocation periods. |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| (3) | To ensure the proper management of those tariff quotas, the maximum quantities available for application for those tariff quotas should be set out in the form of a reference quantity, as laid down in Article 9 of Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/760 [(3)](#ntr3-L_202402652EN.000101-E0003). Therefore, it is necessary to amend the tables of those tariff quotas in Annexes I and III to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/761. |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| (4) | Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/761 lays down the specific rules governing the tariff quota for exporting cheese to the United States. Following the withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the Union, the quantity of this quota has been apportioned between the Union and the United Kingdom. In this exercise, a divergence in the calculation led to a discrepancy between the quantity allocated to the Union by the United States, and the quantity indicated in Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/761. Annex XIV.5 to that Implementing Regulation should therefore be adjusted accordingly. |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| (5) | Imports of dairy products from New Zealand under tariff quotas with order numbers 09.4516, 09.4523, 09.4524 and 09.4525 are to be accompanied by valid IMA1 certificates. The templates of these certificates should be adjusted in conformity with Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2023/608 [(4)](#ntr4-L_202402652EN.000101-E0004), Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2024/1173 [(5)](#ntr5-L_202402652EN.000101-E0005) and Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/1178 [(6)](#ntr6-L_202402652EN.000101-E0006). Whereas the template for tariff quotas 09.4521 and 09.4522 for cheese imported from Australia does not need to be modified, the templates laid down in Annex XIV.5 to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/761 for importing from New Zealand under tariff quotas 09.4516 (cheese) and 09.4523, 09.4524 and 09.4525 (butter) should be adjusted accordingly. |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| (6) | Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/761 should therefore be amended accordingly. |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| (7) | To ensure that the modifications to the templates of IMA1 certificates do not hamper trade activities, this Regulation should provide for a transitional period during which certificates may be accepted in both the old and the new format. |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| (8) | The reference quantity requirement should apply to tariff rate quotas with order numbers 09.4112, 09.4117, 09.4118, 09.4119, 09.4130, 09.4154, 09.4166 and 09.4168 after a transitional period sufficient to allow operators to adapt their business to the new rules. Since the reference quantity is calculated on the basis of the imports made by each operator in the two 12-month periods preceding the submission of the licence application, it is deemed reasonable to apply the reference quantity only from 23 November 2026, which is the first day when operators will be able to submit applications – together with the proof of their reference quantity – for licences that will be valid for the tariff quota period starting on 1 January 2027. |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| (9) | The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee for the Common Organisation of the Agricultural Markets, |

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Cancellation of the IMA 1 certificate when full duty is due and paid for non-compliance with compositional requirements  Where full duty is paid on a lot because the maximum fat content requirement is not complied with, the corresponding IMA 1 certificate may be cancelled and the IMA 1 issuing body may add the quantities concerned to those for which IMA 1 certificates may be issued for the same quota year.  Product destroyed or rendered unfit for sale  IMA 1 issuing bodies may cancel an IMA 1 certificate or part thereof for a quantity covered by it which is destroyed or rendered unfit for sale in circumstances beyond the control of the exporter. Where part of the quantity covered by an IMA 1 certificate is destroyed or rendered unfit for sale, a replacement certificate may be issued for the remaining quantity. The replacement certificate shall be valid only up to the same date as the original. In this case, box 17 of the replacement IMA 1 certificate shall contain the words ‘valid up to 00.00.0000’.  Where all or part of the quantity covered by an IMA 1 certificate is destroyed or rendered unfit for sale due to circumstances beyond the exporters’ control, the IMA 1 issuing body may add these quantities to those for which IMA 1 certificates may be issued for the same quota year.  Change of Member State of destination  When the exporter is obliged to change the Member State of destination indicated on an IMA 1 certificate before a corresponding import licence is issued, the original IMA 1 certificate may be amended by the IMA 1 issuing body. Such an amended original IMA 1 certificate, duly authenticated and appropriately identified by the issuing body, may be presented to the licensing authority and to the customs authorities.  Clerical or technical error  When a clerical or technical error is discovered on an IMA 1 certificate before a corresponding import licence is issued, the original certificate may be corrected by the issuing body. Such a corrected original IMA 1 certificate may be presented to the licensing authority and to the customs authorities.  Exceptional circumstances when a product intended for import in a given year becomes unavailable  When, in exceptional circumstances beyond the control of the exporter, a product intended for import in a given year becomes unavailable and the only means of filling the quota, in the light of normal shipping time from the country of origin, is to replace it with a product originally intended for import the following year, the issuing body may issue a new IMA 1 certificate for the replacement quantity, between the sixth and the tenth calendar day after giving due notification to the Commission of the details of the IMA 1 certificate or part thereof to be cancelled for the year concerned and of the first IMA 1 certificate or part thereof issued for the following year to be cancelled.  If the Commission considers that this provision does not apply to the circumstances of the case concerned, it may object within seven calendar days, stating the reason for its objection. Where the quantity to be replaced is greater than that covered by the first IMA 1 certificate issued for the following year, the required quantity may be obtained by cancelling additional IMA 1 certificates, in sequence, or part thereof as necessary.  All quantities in respect of which IMA 1 certificates or part thereof have been cancelled for the year concerned shall be added to the quantities for which IMA 1 certificates may be issued for that quota year.  All quantities brought forward from the following quota year for which an IMA 1 certificate or certificates have been cancelled shall be added back to the quantities for which IMA 1 certificates may be issued for that quota year.
