         COUNCIL REGULATION (EC) No 980/2005
   of 27 June 2005
   applying a scheme of generalised tariff preferences
   THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
   Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 133 thereof,
   Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
   Having regard to the Opinion of the European Parliament (1),
   Having regard to the Opinion of the European Economic and Social Committee (2),
   Whereas:
   
               (1)
            
            
               Since 1971, the Community has granted trade preferences to developing countries, in the framework of its scheme of generalised tariff preferences.
            
         
               (2)
            
            
               The Community's common commercial policy is to be consistent with and consolidate the objectives of development policy, in particular the eradication of poverty and the promotion of sustainable development and good governance in the developing countries. It is to comply with the WTO requirements, and in particular with the GATT Enabling clause of 1979 (3).
            
         
               (3)
            
            
               A communication from the Commission to the Council, the European Parliament and the European Economic and Social Committee of 7 July 2004 entitled ‘Developing countries, international trade and sustainable development: the function of the Community's generalised system of preferences (GSP) for the ten-year period from 2006 to 2015’ sets out the guidelines for the application of the scheme of generalised tariff preferences for the period 2006 to 2015.
            
         
               (4)
            
            
               This Regulation is the first Regulation implementing those guidelines. It should apply until 31 December 2008.
            
         
               (5)
            
            
               The scheme of generalised tariff preferences (hereinafter referred to as ‘the scheme’) should consist of a general arrangement granted to all the beneficiary countries and territories and two special arrangements taking into account the various development needs of similar-situated developing countries.
            
         
               (6)
            
            
               The general arrangement should be granted to all beneficiary countries unless they are classified by the World Bank as a high-income country and where they are not sufficiently diversified in their exports.
            
         
               (7)
            
            
               The special incentive arrangement for sustainable development and good governance is based on an integral concept of sustainable development as recognized by international conventions and instruments such as the UN Declaration on the Right to Development of 1986, the Rio Declaration on Environment and Development of 1992, the ILO Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work of 1998, the UN Millennium Declaration of 2000 and the Johannesburg Declaration on Sustainable Development of 2002. Consequently, developing countries which due to a lack of diversification and insufficient integration into the international trading system are vulnerable while assuming special burdens and responsibilities due to the ratification and effective implementation of core international conventions on human and labour rights, environmental protection and good governance should benefit from additional tariff preferences. These preferences are designed to promote further economic growth and thereby to respond positively to the need for sustainable development. Under this arrangement ad valorem tariffs are therefore suspended for the beneficiary countries, as well as specific duties (unless combined with an ad valorem duty). The special incentive arrangement for sustainable development and good governance should exceptionally apply before the entry into force of the whole Regulation to conform with the WTO ruling on the special arrangements to combat drug production and trafficking.
            
         
               (8)
            
            
               Developing countries which already fulfil the criteria under the special arrangement for sustainable development and good governance at the time of entry into force of this Regulation should benefit from this arrangement as quickly as possible. They should therefore be provisionally listed as beneficiary countries. They should continue to benefit from the preferences if upon their application the Commission confirms their qualification by 15 December 2005.
            
         
               (9)
            
            
               The Commission should monitor the effective implementation of the international conventions in accordance with the respective mechanisms thereunder and should assess the relationship between additional tariff preferences and the promotion of sustainable development.
            
         
               (10)
            
            
               The special arrangement for the least developed countries should continue to grant duty-free access to products originating in the least developed countries, as recognised and classified by the United Nations. For a country no longer classified by the United Nations as a least developed country a transitional period should be established to alleviate any adverse effects caused by removal of the tariff preferences granted under this arrangement.
            
         
               (11)
            
            
               Preferences should continue to be differentiated according to the sensitivity of products, differentiating between non-sensitive and sensitive products, to take into account the situation of the sectors manufacturing the same products in the Community.
            
         
               (12)
            
            
               Tariff duties on non-sensitive products should continue to be suspended, while duties on sensitive products should enjoy a tariff reduction to ensure a satisfactory utilisation rate while at the same time taking into account the situation of the respective Community industries.
            
         
               (13)
            
            
               Such reduction should be sufficiently attractive in order to motivate traders to use the opportunities offered by the scheme. As far as ad valorem duties are concerned, the reduction should therefore be a flat rate of 3,5 percentage points of the most favoured nation (MFN) duty rate. Specific duties should be reduced by 30 %. Where duties specify a minimum duty, that minimum duty should not apply.
            
         
               (14)
            
            
               Duties should be totally suspended where preferential treatment for an individual import declaration results in ad valorem duties of 1 % or less or in specific duties of EUR 2 or less as the cost of collecting such duties might be higher than the revenue gained.
            
         
               (15)
            
            
               For the sake of coherence of the Community commercial policy, a beneficiary country should not benefit from both the Community's scheme and a free trade agreement, if that agreement covers at least all the preferences provided by the present scheme for that country.
            
         
               (16)
            
            
               Graduation should be based on criteria related to sections of the Common Customs Tariff. The graduation of a section for a beneficiary country should be applied when the section meets the criteria for graduation during three consecutive years, to increase predictability and fairness of graduation by eliminating the effect of large and exceptional variations in the import statistics.
            
         
               (17)
            
            
               The rules of origin, concerning the definition of the concept of originating products, the procedures and the methods of administrative cooperation related thereto, laid down in Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2454/93 of 2 July 1993 laying down provisions for the implementation of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2913/92 establishing the Community Customs Code (4), apply to tariff preferences provided for by this Regulation to ensure that the benefit of this scheme goes only to those whom the scheme is intended to benefit.
            
         
               (18)
            
            
               The reasons for temporary withdrawal should include serious and systematic violations of the principles laid down in the conventions listed in Annex III so as to promote the objectives of those conventions and to ensure that no beneficiary receives unfair advantage through continuous violation of those conventions.
            
         
               (19)
            
            
               Due to the political situation in Myanmar, temporary withdrawal of all tariff preferences in respect of imports of products originating in Myanmar should remain in force.
            
         
               (20)
            
            
               The measures necessary for the implementation of this Regulation should be adopted in accordance with Council Decision 1999/468/EC of 28 June 1999 laying down the procedures for the exercise of implementing powers conferred on the Commission (5),
            
         HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

               (a)
            
            
               has ratified and effectively implemented the conventions listed in Part A of Annex III, and
            
         
               (b)
            
            
               has ratified and effectively implemented at least seven of the conventions listed in Part B of Annex III, and
            
         
               (c)
            
            
               commits itself to ratify and effectively implement by 31 December 2008 those conventions listed in Part B of Annex III which it has not yet ratified and effectively implemented, and
            
         
               (d)
            
            
               gives an undertaking to maintain the ratification of the conventions and their implementing legislation and measures and which accepts regular monitoring and review of its implementation record in accordance with the implementation provisions of the conventions it has ratified, and
            
         
               (e)
            
            
               is considered as a vulnerable country as defined in paragraph 3.
            
         2.   By way of derogation from paragraph 1 (a) and (c) for countries faced with specific constitutional constraints, the special incentive arrangement for sustainable development and good governance may be granted to a country which has not ratified and effectively implemented a maximum of two of the sixteen conventions listed in Part A of Annex III provided:
   
               (a)
            
            
               that a formal commitment has been made by the country concerned to sign, ratify and implement any missing Convention should it be ascertained that there exists no incompatibility with its Constitution no later than 31 October 2005, and
            
         
               (b)
            
            
               in case of an incompatibility with its Constitution, the country concerned has formally committed itself to sign and ratify any missing Convention no later than 31 December 2006.
            
         Before the end of 2006, the Commission shall report to the Council on the compliance by a country concerned with the above-mentioned commitments. The granting of the special incentive arrangement for sustainable development and good governance to this country beyond 1 January 2007 is subject to a Council decision. As appropriate, and on the basis of the abovementioned report, the Commission shall propose to the Council such a continuation.
   3.   A vulnerable country is one:
   
               (a)
            
            
               that is not classified by the World Bank as a high income country during three consecutive years, and whose five largest sections of its GSP-covered imports to the Community represent more than 75 % in value of its total GSP-covered imports, and
            
         
               (b)
            
            
               whose GSP-covered imports to the Community represent less than 1 % in value of total GSP-covered imports to the Community.
            
         The data to be used are those available on 1 September 2004, as an average over three consecutive years.
   4.   The Commission shall keep under review the status of ratification and effective implementation of the conventions listed in Annex III. Before the end of the period of application of this Regulation and in time for the discussion on the next Regulation, the Commission shall present to the Council a report concerning the status of ratification of such conventions, including recommendations by monitoring bodies.
   Article 10
   1.   Without prejudice to paragraph 3, the special incentive arrangement for sustainable development and good governance shall be granted if the following conditions are met:
   
               (a)
            
            
               a country or territory listed in Annex I has made a request to that effect by 31 October 2005, and
            
         
               (b)
            
            
               an examination of the request shows that the requesting country fulfils the conditions laid down in Article 9(1), (2) and (3).
            
         2.   The requesting country shall submit its request to the Commission in writing and shall provide comprehensive information concerning ratification of the conventions referred to in Annex III, the legislation and measures to effectively implement the provisions of the conventions and its commitment to accept and fully comply with the monitoring and review mechanism envisaged in the relevant conventions and related instruments.
   3.   Those countries that are granted provisionally the special incentive arrangement for sustainable development and good governance from the date of entry into force of this Regulation shall also submit a request according to paragraphs 1 and 2 by 31 October 2005. The Commission shall assess the request according to Article 11.
   Article 11
   1.   Where the Commission receives a request accompanied by the information referred to in Article 10, the Commission shall examine the request. The examination shall take into account the findings of the relevant international organisations and agencies. It may ask the requesting country any questions which it considers relevant and may verify the information received with the requesting country or any other relevant sources.
   2.   The Commission shall decide, in accordance with the examination referred to in paragraph 1 and the procedure referred to in Article 28(4), whether to grant a requesting country the special incentive arrangement for sustainable development and good governance as of 1 January 2006.
   3.   The Commission shall notify a requesting country of a decision taken in accordance with paragraph 2. Where a country is granted the special incentive arrangement, it shall be informed of the date on which that decision enters into force. The Commission shall by 15 December 2005 publish a notice in the Official Journal of the European Union, listing the countries benefiting from the special incentive arrangement for sustainable development and good governance.
   4.   Where a requesting country is not granted the special incentive arrangement, the Commission shall explain the reasons if that country so requests.
   5.   The Commission shall conduct all relations with a requesting country concerning the request in close coordination with the Committee acting in accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 28(4).
   SECTION 3
   Special arrangement for least developed countries
   Article 12
   1.   Without prejudice to paragraphs 2, 3 and 4, Common Customs Tariff duties on all products of Chapters 1 to 97 of the Harmonized System except those of Chapter 93 thereof, originating in a country that according to Annex I benefits from the special arrangement for least developed countries, shall be entirely suspended.
   2.   Common Customs Tariff duties on the products of tariff heading 1006 shall be reduced by 20 % on 1 September 2006, by 50 % on 1 September 2007 and by 80 % on 1 September 2008. They shall be entirely suspended as from 1 September 2009.
   3.   Common Customs Tariff duties on the products of CN code 0803 00 19 shall be reduced by 20 % annually as from 1 January 2002. They shall be entirely suspended as from 1 January 2006.
   4.   Common Customs Tariff duties on the products of tariff heading 1701 shall be reduced by 20 % on 1 July 2006, by 50 % on 1 July 2007 and by 80 % on 1 July 2008. They shall be entirely suspended as from 1 July 2009.
   5.   Until Common Customs Tariff duties are entirely suspended in accordance with paragraphs 2 and 4, a global tariff quota at zero duty shall be opened for every marketing year for products of tariff heading 1006 and subheading 1701 11 10 respectively, originating in the countries benefiting from this special arrangement. The initial tariff quotas for the marketing year 2001/2002 shall be equal to 2 517 tonnes, husked rice equivalent, for products of tariff heading 1006, and 74 185 tonnes, white sugar equivalent, for products of subheading 1701 11 10. For each of the following marketing years, the quotas shall be increased by 15 % over the quotas of the previous marketing year.
   6.   The Commission shall adopt detailed rules governing the opening and administration of the quotas referred to in paragraph 5, in accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 28(4). In opening and administrating these quotas, the Commission shall be assisted by the management committees for the relevant common market organisations.
   7.   When a country is excluded by the United Nations from the list of the least developed countries, it is withdrawn from the list of the beneficiaries of this arrangement. The removal of a country from the arrangement and the establishment of a transitional period of at least three years shall be decided by the Commission, in accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 28(4).
   Article 13
   Article 12(4) and provisions of Article 12(5) referring to products of tariff subheading 1701 11 10 shall not apply to products originating in countries benefiting from the preferences referred to in this section and released for free circulation in the French overseas departments.

   TEMPORARY WITHDRAWAL AND SAFEGUARD PROVISIONS
   SECTION 1
   Temporary withdrawal
   Article 16
   1.   The preferential arrangements provided for in this Regulation may be temporarily withdrawn, in respect of all or of certain products, originating in a beneficiary country, for any of the following reasons:
   
               (a)
            
            
               serious and systematic violations of principles laid down in the conventions listed in Part A of Annex III, on the basis of the conclusion of the relevant monitoring bodies;
            
         
               (b)
            
            
               export of goods made by prison labour;
            
         
               (c)
            
            
               serious shortcomings in customs controls on export or transit of drugs (illicit substancesor precursors), or failure to comply with international conventions on money-laundering;
            
         
               (d)
            
            
               serious and systematic unfair trading practices which have an adverse effect on the Community industry and have not been addressed by the beneficiary country. For those unfair trading practices which are prohibited or actionable under the WTO Agreements, the application of this Article shall be based on a previous determination to that effect by the competent WTO body;
            
         
               (e)
            
            
               serious and systematic infringements of the objectives of regional fishery organizations or arrangements to which the Community is a member concerning the conservation and management of fishery resources.
            
         2.   Without prejudice to paragraph 1, the special incentive arrangement referred to in Section 2 of Chapter II may be temporarily withdrawn, in respect of all or certain products included in this arrangement, originating in a beneficiary country, in particular if the national legislation no longer incorporates those conventions referred to in Annex III which have been ratified in fulfilment of the requirements of Article 9(1) and (2) or if that legislation is not effectively implemented.
   3.   The preferential arrangements provided for in this Regulation shall not be withdrawn pursuant to paragraph 1(d) in respect of products which are subject to anti-dumping or countervailing measures under Regulations (EC) No 384/96 (8) or (EC) No 2026/97 (9), for the reasons which justify those measures.
   Article 17
   1.   The preferential arrangements provided for in this Regulation may be temporarily withdrawn, in respect of all or of certain products, originating in a beneficiary country, in cases of fraud, irregularities or systematic failure to comply or to ensure compliance with the rules of origin of products and the procedures related thereto, and to provide the administrative cooperation as required for the implementation and the control of the respect of the arrangements referred to in Article 1(2).
   2.   The administrative cooperation referred to in paragraph 1 requires, inter alia, that a beneficiary country:
   
               (a)
            
            
               communicate to the Commission and update the information necessary for the implementation of the rules of origin and the control of respect thereof;
            
         
               (b)
            
            
               assist the Community by carrying out, on request of the customs authorities of Member States, subsequent verification of origin and communicate its results in time;
            
         
               (c)
            
            
               assist the Community by allowing the Commission, in coordination and close cooperation with the competent authorities of the Member States, to conduct Community administrative and investigative cooperation missions in that country, in order to verify the authenticity of documents or the accuracy of information relevant for granting the benefit of the arrangements referred to in Article 1(2);
            
         
               (d)
            
            
               carry out or arrange for appropriate inquiries to identify and prevent contravention of the rules of origin;
            
         
               (e)
            
            
               comply or ensure compliance with the rules of origin in respect of regional cumulation, within the meaning of Regulation (EEC) No 2454/93, if the country benefits therefrom;
            
         
               (f)
            
            
               assist the Community in the verification of conduct where there is a presumption of origin-related fraud. The existence of fraud may be presumed where imports of products under the preferential regimes granted under this Regulation massively exceed the usual levels of exports of the beneficiary country.
            
         3.   The Commission may suspend the preferential arrangements provided for in this Regulation in respect of all or of certain products, originating in a beneficiary country, where it considers that there is sufficient evidence that temporary withdrawal would be justified for the reasons referred to in paragraphs 1 and 2, provided that it has first:
   
               —
            
            
               informed the Committee;
            
         
               —
            
            
               called on the Member States to take such precautionary measures as are necessary in order to safeguard the Community's financial interests and/or secure compliance by the beneficiary country with its obligations;
            
         
               —
            
            
               published a notice in the Official Journal of the European Union stating that there are grounds for reasonable doubts about the application of the preferential arrangements and/or compliance by the beneficiary country with its obligations, which may call into question its right to continue enjoying the benefits granted by this Regulation.
            
         The Commission shall inform the beneficiary country concerned of any decision taken in accordance with this paragraph, before it becomes effective. The Commission shall also notify the Committee thereof.
   4.   Any Member State may refer a decision taken in accordance with paragraph 3 to the Council within 1 month. The Council, acting by a qualified majority, may take a different decision within 1 month.
   5.   The period of suspension shall not exceed 6 months. On conclusion of the period, the Commission shall decide either to terminate the suspension after informing the Committee or to extend the period of suspension in accordance with the procedure referred to in paragraph 3.
   6.   Member States shall communicate to the Commission all relevant information that may justify suspension of preferences or its extension.
   Article 18
   1.   Where the Commission or a Member State receives information that may justify temporary withdrawal and where the Commission or a Member State considers that there are sufficient grounds for an investigation, it shall inform the Committee and request consultations, which should take place within one month.
   2.   Following the consultations, the Commission may decide, within 1 month and in accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 28(5), to initiate an investigation.
   Article 19
   1.   Where the Commission decides to initiate an investigation, it shall publish a notice in the Official Journal of the European Union announcing the investigation, and notify the beneficiary country concerned thereof. The notice shall provide a summary of the information received and state that any relevant information should be sent to the Commission. It shall specify the period, which may not exceed four months as from the date of publication of the notice, within which interested parties may make their views known in writing.
   2.   The Commission shall provide the beneficiary country concerned with every opportunity to cooperate in the investigation.
   3.   The Commission shall seek all information it considers necessary including the available assessments, comments, decisions, recommendations and conclusions of the relevant supervisory bodies of the UN, the ILO and other competent international organisations. These shall serve as the point of departure for the investigation as to whether temporary withdrawal is justified for the reason referred to in point (a) of Article 16(1). The Commission may verify the information received with economic operators and the beneficiary country concerned.
   4.   The Commission may be assisted by officials of the Member State on whose territory verification might be sought, if that Member State so requests.
   5.   Where information requested by the Commission is not provided within the period specified in the notice announcing the investigation, or the investigation is significantly impeded, findings may be made on the basis of the facts available.
   6.   The investigation should be completed within a year. The Commission may extend this period, in accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 28(5).
   Article 20
   1.   The Commission shall submit a report on its findings to the Committee.
   2.   Where the Commission considers that the findings do not justify temporary withdrawal, it shall decide, in accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 28(5), to terminate the investigation. In that case, the Commission shall publish a notice in the Official Journal of the European Union, announcing the termination of the investigation and setting out its main conclusions.
   3.   Where the Commission considers that the findings justify temporary withdrawal for the reason referred to in point (a) of Article 16(1), it shall decide, in accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 28(5), to monitor and evaluate the situation in the beneficiary country concerned for a period of six months. The Commission shall notify the beneficiary country concerned of this decision and shall publish a notice in the Official Journal of the European Union, announcing that it intends to submit a proposal to the Council for temporary withdrawal, unless, before the end of the period, the beneficiary country concerned makes a commitment to take the measures necessary to conform, in a reasonable period of time, with the conventions referred to in Part A of Annex III.
   4.   Where the Commission considers temporary withdrawal to be necessary, it shall submit an appropriate proposal to the Council, which shall decide within 1 month by a qualified majority. In cases referred to in paragraph 3, the Commission shall submit its proposal at the end of the period referred to in that paragraph.
   5.   Where the Council decides on temporary withdrawal, such decision shall enter into force 6 months after it was taken, unless it is decided before then that the reasons justifying it no longer prevail.
   SECTION 2
   Safeguard clause
   Article 21
   1.   Where a product originating in a beneficiary country is imported on terms which cause, or threaten to cause, serious difficulties to a Community producer of like or directly competing products, normal Common Customs Tariff duties on that product may be reintroduced at any time at the request of a Member State or on the Commission's initiative.
   2.   The Commission shall take a formal decision to initiate an investigation within a reasonable period of time. Where the Commission decides to initiate an investigation, it shall publish a notice in the Official Journal of the European Union announcing the investigation. The notice shall provide a summary of the information received and state that any relevant information should be sent to the Commission. It shall specify the period, which shall not exceed 4 months from the date of publication of the notice, within which interested parties may make their views known in writing.
   3.   The Commission shall seek all information it deems necessary and may verify the information received with the beneficiary country concerned and any other relevant source.

               bankruptcies,
            
         
               —

   8.   Where imports of products of section XI(b), as referred to in Article 14(1), originating in a beneficiary country:
   
               (a)

         the Commission, on the 1st of January of every year during the period of application of this Regulation, on its own initiative or at the request of a Member State and after informing the Committee, shall remove the preferences referred to in Articles 7 and 8 with respect to products from section XI(b). This provision shall not apply to countries benefiting from the special arrangement for least developed countries referred to in Article 12 and to countries whose share of imports into the Community as defined in Article 14(1) do not exceed 8 %.

The removal of the preferences shall take effect two months after the publication of the Commission's decision to this effect in the Official Journal of the European Union.
   Article 22
   Where imports of products included in Annex I to the Treaty cause, or threaten to cause, serious disturbance to Community markets, in particular to one or more of the outermost regions, or these markets' regulatory mechanisms, the Commission, on request of a Member State or on its own initiative, may suspend the preferential arrangements in respect of the products concerned after consulting the management committee for the relevant common market organisation.

   All periods mentioned in Article 21 which exceed 2 months shall be reduced to 2 months in the following cases:
   
               —

      ANNEX II
      List of products included in the arrangements referred to in Article 1(2)(a) and (b)
      Notwithstanding the rules for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature, the description of products is to be considered as indicative, the tariff preferences being determined by the CN codes. Where ex CN codes are indicated, the tariff preferences are to be determined by the CN code and the description together. Entry of products marked with an asterisk is subject to the conditions laid down in the relevant Community provisions.
      The column ‘Sensitivity/Non-Sensitivity’ comprises the products included in the general arrangement (Article 7) and in the special incentive arrangement for sustainable development and good governance (Article 8). These products are listed either NS (non-sensitive in the meaning of Article 7(1)) or S (sensitive in the meaning of Article 7(2)). For reasons of simplification, products are listed in groups. These may include products for which Common Customs Tariff duties are exempted or suspended.
