Information Note No 1 – Submission of proofs of preferential origin during the CoVid19 crisis

On 26 March 2020, the CEG-ORI and the Council CUWP received a note accompanied by document TAXUD/2042348/20, which included a Communication from the Commission services on the implementation of provisions on rules of origin in the framework of preferential trade arrangements of the EU. Following the comments received from Member States, the Communication has been revised and transformed in an Information Note No 1 on the submission of proofs of preferential origin during the CoVid19 crisis. CEG-ORI members can find the final version in Annex. This information note will be shared with the EU preferential trade partners. DG TAXUD, in cooperation with other services of the Commission, will ensure coordination, oversee the functioning and the application of these exceptional measures, and provide information on such arrangements to customs and operators. The address of the webpage where to find information will be shared as soon as possible.
