         COUNCIL DECISION
   of 17 October 2013
   on the position to be adopted, on behalf of the European Union, in the EU-EFTA Joint Committee on common transit concerning the adoption of a Decision amending the Convention of 20 May 1987 on a common transit procedure, as regards the modification of HS codes and package codes
   (2013/524/EU)
   THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
   Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular the first subparagraph of Article 207(4), in conjunction with Article 218(9), thereof,
   Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,
   Whereas:
   
               (1)
            
            
               Article 15 of the Convention of 20 May 1987 on a common transit procedure (1) (the ‘Convention’) empowers the EU-EFTA Joint Committee on common transit set up by the Convention to recommend and adopt, by decisions, amendments to the Convention and the Appendices thereto.
            
         
               (2)
            
            
               On 26 June 2009, the Customs Cooperation Council adopted a Recommendation amending the Harmonised System nomenclature. As a consequence of that Recommendation, on 1 January 2012, the Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1006/2011 (2) entered into force and replaced HS code 1701 11 by two new HS codes, namely 1701 13 and 1701 14, as well as HS code 2403 10 by two new HS codes, namely 2403 11 and 2403 19.
            
         
               (3)
            
            
               Due to the replacement of HS codes 1701 11 and 2403 10 by Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1006/2011, those codes should also be amended in Annex I (Goods involving higher risk of fraud) to Appendix I to the Convention.
            
         
               (4)
            
            
               The United Nations Economic Commission for Europe has issued revision 8.1 of Recommendation No 21 on, inter alia, package codes. It is therefore necessary to adapt the list of package codes contained in Annex A2 to Appendix III to the Convention in accordance with that revision.
            
         
               (5)
            
            
               As the package codes format has changed from alphabetic2 (a2) to alphanumeric2 (an2) codes, the Type/Length of the kind of packages (box 31) provided for in Annex A1 to Appendix III to the Convention should also be amended accordingly.
            
         
               (6)
            
            
               Therefore, the position of the European Union concerning the proposed amendment should be determined,
            
         HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
   Article 1

      (2)  Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1006/2011 of 27 September 2011 amending Annex I to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 on the tariff and statistical nomenclature and on the Common Customs Tariff (OJ L 282, 28.10.2011, p. 1).
   
      DRAFT
      DECISION No 2/2013 OF THE EU-EFTA JOINT COMMITTEE ON COMMON TRANSIT
      of
      amending the Convention of 20 May 1987 on a common transit procedure
      THE EU-EFTA JOINT COMMITTEE,
      Having regard to the Convention of 20 May 1987 on a common transit procedure (1), and in particular Article 15(3)(a) thereof,
      Whereas:
      
                  (1)
               
               
                  The Recommendation of 26 June 2009 of the Customs Cooperation Council amended the Harmonised System nomenclature. As a consequence, on 1 January 2012, Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1006/2011 (2) entered into force and replaced HS code 170111 by two new HS codes, namely 170113 and 170114, and HS code 240310 by two new HS codes, namely 240311 and 240319.
               
            
                  (2)
               
               
                  Consequently, the corresponding HS codes specified in the list of goods involving higher risk of fraud of Annex I to Appendix I to the Convention of 20 May 1987 on a common transit procedure (the ‘Convention’) should be amended accordingly.
               
            
                  (3)
               
               
                  Due to a new revision of Recommendation 21 of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe, revision 8.1, on, inter alia, package codes, it is appropriate to adapt Annex A2 to Appendix III to the Convention accordingly.
               
            
                  (4)
               
               
                  As the package codes format has changed from alphabetical2 (a2) to alphanumeric2 (an2) codes, the Type/Length of the kind of packages (box 31) in Annex A1 to Appendix III to the Convention should be amended accordingly.
               
            
                  (5)
               
               
                  The proposed amendments lead to an alignment of provisions on common transit with the EU provisions on transit.
               
            
                  (6)
               
               
                  Therefore the Convention should be amended accordingly,
               
            HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION,
      Article 1
      The Convention of 20 May 1987 on a common transit procedure shall be amended as set out in the Appendix to this Decision.
