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 474/90 (2), and in particular Article 57 thereof,
Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1062/87 (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2920/90 (4), contains notably specific provisions on the matter of guarantee;
Whereas it is appropriate, on the one hand, to modify these provisions in respect of recent developments in the transport of certain categories of goods presenting increased risks to duties and other charges which may be due on importation, and on the  other hand, to make some amendments to make them more binding;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee on the Movement of Goods,
Title II 'PROVISIONS RELATING TO GUARANTEES' of Regulation (EEC) No 1062/87 is hereby amended as follows:
1. After 'COMPREHENSIVE GUARANTEE', the following text is inserted:
'Amount of guarantee

(c)
When the comprehensive guarantee is intended to cover external Community transit operations concerning goods introduced into the Community and which are listed in Annex VII to this Regulation, the minimum level shall be established according to the  following procedure:
1. the comprehensive guarantee shall be fixed in the sum of at least ECU 100 000;
2. the competent authorities of the Member States shall have the option of setting the amount of the comprehensive guarantee in a lesser sum to that envisaged in point 1 for persons:
(a) who are resident in the Member State where the guarantee is furnished;
(b) who are regular users of the Community transit system;
(c) whose financial situation is such that they can meet their commitments; and
(d) who have not committed any serious infringement of customs or fiscal laws.
However, the amount of the comprehensive guarantee cannot, in any case, be less than ECU 50 000.
In the case of application of this point, the office of guarantee shall enter in Box 7 of the certificate of guarantee provided for in Article 12 one of the following statements:

2. Article 18 (2) is replaced by the following:
'2. When because of circumstances peculiar to it, a transport of goods presents increased risks and for this reason the guarantee of ECU 7 000 is insufficient, the office of departure shall require a guarantee of greater amount in multiples of ECU 7  000, necessary to guarantee the goods to be consigned.'

This Reglation shall enter into force on the 15th day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities but not earlier than 1 August 1992. This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable  in all Member States.
