EU regulations do not have a retroactive effect, but the measures they repeal do
2024-11-10

Do EU rules have a retroactive effect? There is no clear answer to this question. It has been the subject of a number of rulings by the Court of Justice of the EU in relation to specific acts and situations. This article reviews one of the recent CJEU's judgments on this issue. It concerns the retroactive application of anti-dumping duties when they have already been repealed.

Buying commission: should it or should it not be included in the customs value?
2024-08-25

This year, the European Commission published an updated Compendium of customs valuation (Compendium 2024) with several important updates that promise to have a significant impact on the customs valuation process. While its aim is to harmonise the application of legislation and minimise disputes between businesses and customs, it is likely that some of these updates will actually increase the already high number of disputes in this area. This article examines the new Comment No 19 on the buying commission and its implications for enforcement.

2024-08-07

Article 28 of the Treaty of Rome provides for the temporary suspension of duties under the Common Customs Tariff (CCT) on imports of raw materials and components for further processing. This is possible where it is established that the EU-based companies are unable to obtain supplies of the product or suitable substitutes. This article aims to describe the process for successfully applying for an autonomous suspension or quota from the initial completion of the prescribed form to the discussions in the Committee rooms in the European Commission in Brussels.
