Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/761 lays
down the rules for the management of import and export tariff rate quotas for
agricultural products managed by a system of import and export licences and
to that end provides for specific rules.
Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/761 required the
submission of a certificate of origin for tariff rate quotas 09.4410 and
09.4420 since 1 June 2021. Before that date, operators were allowed to prove
the origin through the presentation of a supply contract. The requirement to
submit a certificate of origin caused difficulties and delays for operators.
To overcome these difficulties, Commission Implementing Regulation (EU)
2025/2173 amends the Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/761 and reverts back
to the previous requirements that allow operators to submit supply contracts
as proof of origin.
To ensure a smooth transition from the use of
certificates of origin at customs to the use of supply contracts at licence
application, this Regulation applies only as of the first licence application
period following the 90-day period after the publication of this Regulation
in the Official Journal of the European Union. Licences issued before that
date should still be accompanied by certificates of origin.
