                     For each Member State implementing the basic payment scheme provided for in Chapter 1 of Title III of Regulation (EU) No 1307/2013, the annual national ceiling referred to in Article 22(1) of that Regulation for 2021 has to be set by the Commission by deducting from the annual national ceiling set out in Annex II to that Regulation the ceilings fixed in accordance with Articles 42, 47, 49, 51 and 53 of that Regulation. In accordance with Article 22(2) of Regulation (EU) No 1307/2013 any increases applied by Member States pursuant to that provision are to be taken into account.
                  
               
                     (2)

                     (3)

                     (4)

                     (5)
                  
                  
                     For Member States granting the payment for areas with natural constraints provided for in Chapter 4 of Title III of Regulation (EU) No 1307/2013, the annual national ceilings referred to in Article 49(2) of that Regulation for 2021 have to be set by the Commission on the basis of the percentage notified by the relevant Member States pursuant to Article 49(1) of that Regulation.
                  
               
                     (6)

For the sake of clarity, it is appropriate to set this maximum amount for each Member State.
                  
               
                     (8)

                     (9)

For the sake of consistency between the applicability of that Regulation for the claim year 2021 and the applicability of the corresponding budgetary ceilings, this Regulation should apply from the same date.
                  
               
                     (10)
