Annex

‘ANNEX IV

EGYPT

Notwithstanding the rules for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature, the wording for the description of the products is to be considered as having no more than an indicative value, the preferential scheme being determined, within the context of this Annex, by the coverage of the CN codes as they exist at the time of adoption of this Regulation. Where ex CN codes are indicated, the preferential scheme is to be determined by application of the CN code and corresponding description taken together.

Tariff quotas

From 15 January 2011, this tariff quota volume shall be annually increased by 3 % of the volume of the previous year. The first increase shall take place on the volume of 4 000 tonnes net weight.
From 15 November 2011, this tariff quota volume shall be annually increased by 3 % of the volume of the previous year. The first increase shall take place on the volume of 3 000 tonnes net weight.
The exemption applies only to the ad valorem duty.
Within this tariff quota, the specific duty provided in the Union’s list of concessions to the WTO is reduced to zero, if the entry price is not less than EUR 264/tonne, being the entry price agreed between the European Union and Egypt. If the entry price for a consignment is 2, 4, 6 or 8 % lower than the agreed entry price, the specific customs quota duty shall be equal respectively to 2, 4, 6 or 8 % of this agreed entry price. If the entry price of a consignment is less than 92 % of the agreed entry price, the specific customs duty bound within the WTO shall apply.
Also exemption of the ad valorem duty, in the framework of this tariff quota.’
