COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 3696/86
of 3 December 1986
extending the period of validity of Regulation (EEC) No 2826/77 introducing a Community transit declaration form for use in automatic or electronic data-processing systems
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 222/77 of 13 December 1976 on Community transit (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1901/85 (2), and in particular Article 57 thereof,
Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2826/77 (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3026/84 (4), is applicable until 31 December 1986;
Whereas experience shows that there is a need to provide that the form introduced by Regulation (EEC) No 2826/77 may continue to be used after that date;
Whereas, in addition, the present stage of evolution of the automatic and electronic data-processing systems being used in the customs field is such that no revision of the form is at present necessary;
Whereas the period of validity of Regulation (EEC) No 2826/77 should therefore be extended for one year;
Whereas, however, such extension should not prejudice the implementation of the rules relating to the introduction of the single document form in trade within the Community;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee on the Movement of Goods,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
In the second paragraph of Article 5 of Regulation (EEC) No 2826/77, '31 December 1986' is hereby replaced by '31 December 1987'.
