COUNCIL REGULATION (EC) No 3080/93 of 5 November 1993 amending Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 on the tariff and statistical nomenclature and on the Common Customs Tariff

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community and in particular Article 28 thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 (1) established, on the basis of the Harmonized System, a goods nomenclature known as the combined nomenclature;

Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 4142/87 (2) determines the conditions under which certain goods are eligible on import for a favourable tariff arrangements by reason of their end-use;

Whereas goods covered by the end-use provisions benefit on their release for free circulation from a reduced or zero rate of duty solely on the condition that they are being used for a specified purpose;

Whereas it is desirable that certain types of integrated circuit test equipment should benefit from relief from customs duty under end-use provisions on importation when destined for the functionality testing of integrated circuits; whereas it is appropriate to introduce in the combined nomenclature subheadings with end-use provisions within HS code 9030 81 for such products;

Whereas the combined nomenclature should therefore be amended,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

1. The combined nomenclature annexed to Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 is hereby amended in accordance with the Annex to this Regulation.

2. The amendments to the combined nomenclature subheadings provided for in this Regulation shall be applied as Taric subdivisions until their insertion in the combined nomenclature under the conditions laid down in Article 12 of Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87.
