of 12 October 2015

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular the first subparagraph of Article 207(4) in conjunction with Article 218(9) thereof,

In accordance with Article 38 of Annex III to the Agreement establishing an association between the European Community and its Member States, of the one part, and the Republic of Chile, of the other part (1) (‘the Agreement’), the EU-Chile Association Committee (‘the Association Committee’) may decide to amend the provisions of that Annex.

 

(2)

On 4 November 2014, the Special Committee on Customs Cooperation and Rules of Origin, set up by Article 81 of the Agreement, agreed to recommend to the Association Committee an amendment to Article 12, concerning direct transport, of Annex III to the Agreement.

 

(3)

The shipment of consignments from one Party to the Agreement should go directly to the other Party but may also pass via a third country subject to certain restrictions. The conditions for transport via a third country should be clarified to expressly allow for the splitting of consignments but without any relaxation of the existing restrictions.

The amendment to Article 12 of Annex III to the Agreement will provide legal certainty to importers and exporters, and consistency of interpretation of that Article for the Parties.
