            Proposal for a
            COUNCIL DECISION
            on the position to be adopted on behalf of the European Union within the Joint Committee set up by the Convention of 20 May 1987 on a common transit procedure as regards the proposals for amendments to that Convention
            
               
         
         
            
               EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM
            
            
               1. SUBJECT-MATTER OF THE PROPOSAL
            
            
               The present proposal is for a Decision establishing the position to be adopted on behalf of the Union in the EU-EFTA Joint Committee on common transit ("the Joint Committee") in connection with the envisaged adoption by the Joint Committee of a Decision on amending the Appendices to the Convention of 20 May 1987 on a common transit procedure ("the Convention")
            
            
               2. CONTEXT OF THE PROPOSAL
            
            
               2.1. •The Convention on a common transit procedure 
            
            
               The Convention aims to facilitate the movement of goods between the European Union and other countries which are Contracting Parties to the Convention. It entered into force on 1 January 1988.
            
            
               The European Union is a Contracting Party to the Convention.
            
            
               2.2.The EU-EFTA Joint Committee
            
            
               The task of the EU/EFTA Joint Committee on common transit is to administer the Convention and to ensure its proper implementation. The Committee, by means of decisions, adopts amendments to the Appendices to the Convention 
            
            
               The Joint Committee's decisions are adopted unanimously by Contracting Parties. 
            
            
               2.3.The Decision of the EU-EFTA Joint Committee
            
            
               On 5 December 2017, at its 30th meeting, the Joint Committee is expected to adopt a Decision amending the Appendices to the Convention.
            
            
               The common transit procedure consists of an extension of the Union transit procedure to the non-Union Contracting parties to the Convention ("the common transit countries"). As a result of the EU/EFTA Joint Committee Decision No 1/2016 of 28 April 2016
                  1
               , the Convention was amended in order to align it with provisions in the Union Customs Code ("UCC") and its Delegated and Implementing Acts concerning transit arrangements and the customs status of Union goods. That Decision entered into force on 1 May 2016.
            
            
               Certain provisions of the UCC legal package will apply later than 1 May 2016, taking into account the request from economic operators to have sufficient time to prepare for the new rules and the need to update or deploy relevant customs systems which are scheduled for completion over the next few years. Insofar as the transit procedure is concerned, the provisions concerning the use of the electronic transport document (ETD) as a transit declaration for air transport will apply as of 1 May 2018, at the latest, and certain transit provisions will become applicable only after the upgrade of the electronic transit system. As regards the customs status of Union goods, some of the provisions are not yet applicable, because they also require the deployment of relevant electronic systems. 
            
            
               Therefore, in order to provide the common transit countries also with sufficient time to prepare for the application of the amended provisions and additional data elements that will be required when the new systems and provisions are fully applicable under EU customs legislation, the Convention must be further amended in order to align it fully with the UCC legal package.
            
            
               The process to establish an EU common position on the draft Decision concerning the further amendments to the Convention should be relatively smooth as the content is based on EU rules that were agreed by Member States and that are included in the UCC that entered into force on 1 May 2016.
            
            
               The Commission is invited to adopt the draft Decision and to transmit it to the Council.
            
            
               The Joint Committee Decision amending the Convention shall become binding on the Contracting Parties in accordance with Article 2 of that Decision, which provides that "This Decision shall enter into force on the day of its adoption". 
            
            
               In accordance with Article 15(3) of the Convention, this type of Decision shall be put into effect by the Contracting Parties in accordance with their own legislation.
            
         
         
            
               3. Position to be adopted on behalf of the Union
            
            
               The proposal amends provisions in the Appendices to the Convention and in the Annexes to those Appendices. The amendments propose the alignment of provisions in the Convention with provisions in the UCC Delegated and Implementing Acts concerning the Union transit arrangements and the customs status of Union goods that will only become applicable on certain dates in the future. 
            
            
               The aim is to improve the functioning of the common transit procedure between the Contracting Parties. The amendments should result in substantial and tangible benefits for traders and for customs administrations by improving clarity and ensuring a smooth transition to the new electronic arrangements.
            
            
               Proposed instrument: Decision of the EU-EFTA Joint Committee on common transit.
            
            
               There is no other, more adequate, instrument.
            
            
               The proposed Decision is consistent with the common policy in the fields of trade and transport.
            
            
               4. LEGAL BASIS  
            
            
               4.1. •Procedural legal aspects
            
            
               4.1.1. Principles
            
            
               Article 218(9) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU) provides for decisions establishing ‘the positions to be adopted on the Union’s behalf in a body set up by an agreement, when that body is called upon to adopt acts having legal effects, with the exception of acts supplementing or amending the institutional framework of the agreement.’
            
            
               Article 15(3)(a) of the Convention stipulates that the EU/EFTA Joint Committee adopts by decisions amendments to the Appendices to the Convention. 
            
            
               4.1.2. Application to the present case
            
            
               The Joint Committee is a body set up by Article 14 of the Convention.
            
            
               The Decision which the Joint Committee is called upon to adopt constitutes an act having legal effect. That Decision will be binding under international law in accordance with Article 20 of the Convention.
            
            
               The Decision does not supplement or amend the institutional framework of the Convention.
            
            
               The procedural legal basis for the proposed Decision, therefore, is Article 218(9) TFEU.
            
            
               4.2. Substantive legal basis
            
            
               The substantive legal basis for a decision under Article 218(9) TFEU depends primarily on the objective and content of the envisaged act in respect of which a position is adopted on behalf of the Union.
            
            
               The substantive legal basis of the proposed Decision, therefore, is Article 207 TFEU.
            
            
               The simplifications achieved through the Convention and the envisaged amendment concern efficient border crossing procedures and thus the EU's common commercial policy.
            
         
         
            
               4.3. Conclusions
            
            
               The legal basis for the proposed Decision should be Article 207 TFEU in conjunction with Article 218(9) TFEU.

               on the position to be adopted on behalf of the European Union within the Joint Committee set up by the Convention of 20 May 1987 on a common transit procedure as regards the proposals for amendments to that Convention
            
            
               THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
            
            
               Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 207, in conjunction with Article 218(9) thereof,
            
            
               Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,
            
            
               Whereas:
            
            
               (1)The Convention on a common transit procedure ("the Convention") was concluded by the European Union by Council Decision
                  2
                and entered into force on 1 January 1988.
            
            
               (2)Pursuant to Article 15(3)(a) of the Convention, the EU-EFTA Joint Committee on common transit  set up by that Convention ("the Joint Committee") may adopt by decision amendments to the Appendices to the Convention.
            
            
               (3)On 5 December 2017, during its 30th meeting, the Joint Committee is expected to adopt a Decision amending the Appendices to the Convention.

                  3
                and its Delegated and Implementing acts introduced the possibility to use the electronic transport document (ETD) as a transit declaration for air transport. Those provisions will be fully applicable as of 1 May 2018 at the latest. Moreover, certain provisions on transit and on the customs status of Union goods will only become applicable when the relevant electronic systems have been upgraded or deployed, on the dates indicated in the Annex to Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2016/578 of 11 April 2016 establishing the Work Programme relating to the development and deployment of the electronic systems provided for in the Union Customs Code
                  4
               . 
            
            
               (6)To ensure the smooth and efficient functioning of trade between the Union and the Contracting Parties to the Convention, the provisions on the use of the ETD as a transit declaration and on the implementation of the relevant electronic systems should be included in the Appendices to the Convention. Those amendments are indispensable for the further alignment of the Convention with Union legislation.
            
            
               (7)All Member States of the Union expressed their positive opinion as regards the proposed amendments in the EU-EFTA Working Group on common transit.

               THE JOINT COMMITTEE
            
            
               Having regard to the Convention of 20 May 1987 on a common transit procedure

               This Annex will apply as of the date of the deployment of the PoUS system referred to in the Annex to Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2016/578 of 11 April 2016 establishing the Work Programme relating to the development and deployment of the electronic systems provided for in the Union Customs Code (OJ L 99, 15.4.2016, p. 6).
            
            
               FORMATS AND CODES OF THE COMMON DATA REQUIREMENTS FOR T2L/T2LF AS A PROOF OF THE CUSTOMS STATUS OF UNION GOODS
            
            
               Title I
            
            
               GENERAL
            
            
               1.
                     The formats, codes and, if applicable, the structure of the data elements included in this Annex are applicable in relation with the data requirements for the proof of the customs status of Union goods, specified in Title III of Annex B2a.
            
            
               2.
                     The formats, codes and, if applicable, the structure of the data elements defined in this Annex shall apply to the paper-based proof of the customs status of Union goods. 
            
            
               3.
                     Title II of this Annex includes the formats of the data elements.  
            
            
               4.
                     Whenever the information in a proof of the customs status of Union goods dealt with in Title III of Annex B2a takes the form of codes, the code-list provided for in Title III of this Annex shall be applied.
            
            
               5.
                     The term ‘type/length’ in the explanation of an attribute indicates the requirements for the data type and the data length. The codes for the data types are as follows:
            
            
               a alphabetic
            
         
         
            
               n numeric
            
            
               an alphanumeric
            
            
               The number following the code indicates the admissible data length. The following applies.
            
            
               The optional two dots before the length indicator mean that the data has no fixed length, but it can have up to a number of digits, as specified by the length indicator. A comma in the data length means that the attribute can hold decimals, the digit before the comma indicates the total length of the attribute, the digit after the comma indicates the maximum number of digits after the decimal point.
            
            
               Examples of field lengths and formats:
            
            
               a1
                     1 alphabetic character, fixed length
            
            
               n2
                     2 numeric characters, fixed length
            
            
               an3
                     3 alphanumeric characters, fixed length
            
            
               a..4
                     up to 4 alphabetic characters
            
            
               n..5
                     up to 5 numeric characters
            
            
               an..6
                     up to 6 alphanumeric characters
            
            
               n..7,2
                     up to 7 numeric characters including maximum 2 decimals, a delimiter being allowed to float.
            
            
               6.
                     The cardinality at header level included in the table in Title II of this Annex indicates how many times the data element may be used at header level within a proof of the customs status of Union goods. 
            
            
               7.
                     The cardinality at item level included in the table in Title II of this Annex indicates how many times the data element may be repeated in relation with the item in the proof of the customs status of Union goods concerned.

                        the alphabetic codes for countries and territories are based on the current ISO alpha 2 codes (a2) in so far as they are compatible with the requirements of Commission Regulation (EU) No 1106/2012 of 27 November 2012 implementing Regulation (EC) No 471/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council on Community statistics relating to external trade with non-member countries, as regards the update of the nomenclature of countries and territories. The Commission regularly publishes regulations updating the list of country codes.
                     
                     
                        In case of groupage consignments, where paper-based proof is used, code '00200' may be used together with a list  of exporters in accordance with the notes described for D.E. 3/1 Exporter in Title III of Annex B2a of Appendix II.

               This data element consists of alphanumeric codes.
            
            
               Each code has three components. The first component (an..3), which consists of a combination of digits and/or letters, serves to identify the type of document. The second component (an..35) represents the data needed to recognise that document, either its identification number or another recognisable reference. The third component (an..5) is used to identify which item of the previous document is being referred to.
            
            
               Where a paper-based customs declaration is lodged, the three components are separated by dashes (-)."

               Title I
            
            
               GENERAL
            
            
               1.
                     The formats, codes and, if applicable, the structure of the data elements included in this Annex are applicable in relation with the data requirements for transit declarations, specified in Annex B6a.
            
            
               2.
                     The formats, codes and, if applicable, the structure of the data elements defined in this Annex shall apply to transit declarations made by using an electronic data processing technique as well as to paper-based declarations. 
            
            
               3.
                     Title II includes the formats of the data elements.  
            
            
               4.
                     Whenever the information in a transit declaration dealt with in Annex B6a of this Appendix  takes the form of codes, the code-list provided for in Title II shall be applied.
            
            
               5.
                     The term ‘type/length’ in the explanation of an attribute indicates the requirements for the data type and the data length. The codes for the data types are as follows:
            
            
               a alphabetic
            
            
               n numeric
            
            
               an alphanumeric
            
            
               The number following the code indicates the admissible data length. The following applies.
            
         
         
            
               The optional two dots before the length indicator mean that the data has no fixed length, but it can have up to a number of digits, as specified by the length indicator. A comma in the data length means that the attribute can hold decimals, the digit before the comma indicates the total length of the attribute, the digit after the comma indicates the maximum number of digits after the decimal point.
            
            
               Examples of field lengths and formats:
            
            
               a1
                     1 alphabetic character, fixed length
            
            
               n2
                     2 numeric characters, fixed length
            
            
               an3
                     3 alphanumeric characters, fixed length
            
            
               a..4
                     up to 4 alphabetic characters
            
            
               n..5
                     up to 5 numeric characters
            
            
               an..6
                     up to 6 alphanumeric characters
            
            
               n..7,2
                     up to 7 numeric characters including maximum 2 decimals, a delimiter being allowed to float.
            
            
               6.
                     The cardinality at header level included in the table in Title II of this Annex indicates how many times the data element may be used at header level within a transit declaration. 
            
            
               7.
                     The cardinality at item level included in the table in Title II of this Annex indicates how many times the data element may be repeated in relation with the declaration item concerned.
            
            
               8.
                     National codes can be used by the countries for data elements 1/11 Additional procedure, 2/2 Additional information and 2/3 Documents produced, certificates and authorisations, additional references. The countries shall notify the Commission of the list of national codes used for these data elements. The Commission shall publish the list of those codes.

               This data element consists of alphanumeric codes.
            
            
               Each code has three components. The first component (an..3), which consists of a combination of digits and/or letters, serves to identify the type of document. The second component (an..35) represents the data needed to recognise that document, either its identification number or another recognisable reference. The third component (an..5) is used to identify which item of the previous document is being referred to.

               Field 3 shall be filled in with an identifier for the message concerned. The way that field is used is under the responsibility of the countries but each message handled during one year within the given country must have a unique number in relation to the procedure concerned.
            
            
               The countries that want to have the reference number of the competent customs office included in the MRN, may use up to the first 6 characters to represent it.
            
            
               Field 4 shall be filled in with an identifier of the procedure defined in the table below.
            
            
               Field 5 shall be filled with a value that is a check digit for the whole MRN. This field allows for detection of an error when capturing the whole MRN.

               The item number of the goods concerned as provided in D.E. 1/6. Goods item number on the previous document.
            
            
               Example:
            
            
               The declaration item concerned was the 5th item on the T1 transit document (previous document) to which the office of destination has assigned the number ‘238544’. The code will therefore be ‘821-238544-5’. (‘821’ for the transit procedure, ‘238544’ for the document's registration number (or the MRN for the NCTS operations) and '5' for the item number).
            
         
         
            
               Where, in the case of paper-based transit declarations, more than one reference has to be entered, and the countries  provide that a coded information shall be used, code 00200 as defined in D.E. 2/2 Additional information shall be applicable.
            
            
               2/2 Additional information
            
            
               A five-digit code is used to encode additional information of a customs nature. This code follows the additional information unless the Contracting Parties law provides for the code to be used in place of the text.

               The acronym "BCP" ("Business continuity plan") used in this Annex refers to situations in which the business continuity procedure defined in Article 26 of Appendix I.

               The ‘MRN’ shall also be printed in bar code mode using the standard ‘code 128’, character set ‘B’.

               The transit accompanying document shall not be modified nor shall any addition or deletion be made thereto unless otherwise specified in the Convention.
            
            
               6. Formalities during incidents during movement of goods.
            
            
               The following procedure is applicable until NCTS allows the customs authorities to record this information directly into the system.
            
            
               Between the time when the goods leave the customs office of departure and the time they arrive at the customs office of destination, certain details may have to be added on the transit accompanying document accompanying the goods. The details relate to the transport operation and shall be entered by the carrier responsible for the means of transport on which the goods are loaded as and when the corresponding activities are carried out. The particulars may be added legibly by hand, in which case the entries should be made in ink and in block letters.
            
         
         
            
               Carriers are reminded that goods can be transhipped only under an authorisation of the customs authorities of the country in whose territory the transhipment is to be made.
            
            
               Where those authorities consider that the common transit operation concerned may continue in the normal way they shall, once they have taken any steps that may be necessary, endorse the transit accompanying documents.
            
            
               The customs authorities at the customs office of transit or the customs office of destination, as the case may be, have the obligation to incorporate into the system the added data on the transit accompanying document. The data can also be incorporated by the authorised consignee.
            
            
               The boxes and activities involved are:
            
            
               — Transhipment: use box 7/1.
            
            
               Box Transhipment (7/1)
            
            
               The carrier shall complete the first three lines of this box when goods are transhipped from one means of transport to another or from one container to another in the course of the operation in question.
            
            
               However, where goods are carried in containers that are to be transported by road vehicles, customs authorities may authorise the holder of the transit procedure to leave box 7/7-/7/8 blank where the logistical pattern at the point of departure may prevent the identity and nationality of the means of transport from being provided at the time of establishment of the transit declaration, and where they can ensure that the proper information concerning the means of transport shall be subsequently entered in box 7/1.
            
            
               — Other incidents: use box 7/19.
            
            
               Box Other incidents during carriage (7/19)
            
            
               Box to be completed in accordance with current obligations regarding transit.
            
            
               In addition, where goods have been loaded on a semi-trailer and the tractor is changed during the journey (without the goods being handled or transhipped), enter in this box the registration number and nationality of the new tractor. In this case, endorsement by the competent authorities is not necessary."

               Where a net mass greater than 1 kg includes a fraction of a unit (kg), it may be rounded off in the following manner:
            
            
               — from 0.001 to 0.499: rounding down to the nearest kg,

               — from 0.001 to 0.499: rounding down to the nearest kg,
            
            
               — from 0.5 to 0.999: rounding up to the nearest kg.
            
            
               A gross mass of less than 1 kg should be entered as "0." followed by a number of decimals up to 6, discarding all "0" at the end of the quantity (e.g. 0.123 for a package of 123 grams, 0.00304 for a package of 3 grams and 40 milligrams or. 0.000654 for a package of 654 milligrams).
            
            
               Enter the gross mass, expressed in kilograms, of the goods concerned by the relevant item of goods.
            
            
               Where the declaration comprises several goods items, which concern goods that are packed together in such a way that it is impossible to determine the gross mass of the goods pertaining to any goods item, the total gross mass needs only to be entered on header level.
            
            
               Where a paper-based transit declaration covers several goods items, the total gross mass needs only be entered in the first box 35, the remaining boxes 35 being left blank.

               In the context of this data element, the swap bodies and semi-trailers used for road and rail transport shall be considered as containers.
            
            
               If applicable, for containers covered by the standard ISO 6346, the identifier (prefix) allocated by the International Bureau of Containers and Intermodal Transport (BIC) shall also be provided in addition to the container identification number.
            
            
               For swap bodies and semi-trailers the ILU (Intermodal Loading Units) code as introduced by the European EN 13044 standard shall be used.
