1. In establishing the free-at-frontier offer price for each importation of wines as specified in Article 2 of Regulation (EEC) No 2506/75 the following factors shall be taken into consideration:    (a) fob price in the country of exportation;(b) transportation and insurance costs up to the place of entry into the geographical territory of the Community, within the meaning of Article 4 (2) of Regulation (EEC) No 192/75.2. Where the factors referred to in paragraph 1 are expressed in a currency other than that of the importing Member State the provisions on the valuation of goods for customs purposes shall be applied when converting such currency into the currency of the importing Member State. 1. Member States shall, for each type of wine subject to the special rules for importation laid down in Regulation (EEC) No 2506/75, at the time of completion of customs import formalities for free circulation compare the free-at-frontier offer price calculated in accordance with Article 1 with the corresponding free-at-frontier reference price applicable on the day of completion of the said formalities.

The free-at-frontier offer price shall for each type of wine be declared in the declaration of release for free circulation and such declaration shall be accompanied by all the documents required to verify this price. 1. For the purposes of Article 3 of Regulation (EEC) No 2506/75, the movement certificate used in trade with the third countries concerned shall constitute the document referred to in paragraph 2 of the said Article.
