A
summary of the notification in one of the WTO official languages
|
Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 lays down rules
governing international trade in agricultural products, including the
requirements for ensuring the effective enforcement of trade-related
formalities.
To support the effective application of Regulation
(EU) No 1308/2013 and streamline the cooperation between the relevant EU
Member State authorities, an electronic system is established to manage
agricultural trade-related formalities in a secure and reliable manner. That
system is referred to as the Electronic system for Agricultural Non-customs
formalities ('ELAN') and is developed as an independent module of the Trade
Control and Expert System (TRACES). ELAN stores and processes the documents
required for the fulfilment of Union non-customs formalities related to trade
in agricultural products, as laid down in Commission Implementing Regulations
(EU) 2016/1239, (EU) 2020/761, (EU) 2020/1988 and (EU) 2023/2834.
In order to facilitate cooperation and ensure
seamless information exchange between the relevant issuing authorities or
bodies and customs authorities, ELAN is interconnected with the EU Single
Window Environment for Customs, as established by Regulation (EU) 2022/2399
of the European Parliament and of the Council.
The documents falling under the scope of ELAN are
import and export licences provided for in Commission Delegated Regulation
(EU) 2016/1237 and in Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/1239, documents
issued by third countries required for the management of tariff rate quotas
provided for in Implementing Regulations (EU) 2020/761 and (EU) 2020/1988 and
documents issued by third countries governed by Implementing Regulation (EU)
2023/2834.
Clear rules on the access rights to the information
provided by ELAN are laid down by this Regulation. This Regulation lays down
the rules applicable to the system, concerning in particular: the documents
that can be issued and transmitted to ELAN; the rules on access to those
documents; the period of storage and retention of the documents in ELAN.
The Regulation entered into force on the day
following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European
Union, to ensure the correct application of the rules before ELAN will become
available to its users for testing purposes.
This Regulation applies as of 15 July 2025 when,
according to Article 6 of Commission Implementing Regulation (EU)
2025/1272, ELAN will be available for testing. However, the provisions
concerning the storage and retention period apply only to documents with
legal value made available in ELAN as of 19 January 2026.
