Article 7 F1

Import rights shall be awarded from the 23rd day of the month in which applications are submitted in accordance with Article 6(1) and at the latest on the last day of that month. Import rights shall be valid from the first day of the subperiod for which the application has been submitted and until 30 June of the import tariff quota period concerned.

If application of the allocation coefficient referred to in Article 7(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1301/2006 results in fewer import rights to be allocated than had been applied for, the security lodged in accordance with Article 6(3) of this Regulation shall be released proportionally without delay.

The Commission shall suspend the submission of applications for import rights until the end of the import tariff quota period for the order numbers for which the available quantities are exhausted.
