ANNEX

‘ANNEX II

List of products included in the arrangements referred to in Article 1(2)(a) and (b)

Notwithstanding the rules for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature, the description of the products is to be considered as indicative, the tariff preferences being determined by the CN codes. Where “ex” CN codes are indicated, the tariff preferences are to be determined by the CN code and the description, together.

Entry of products of a CN code marked with an asterisk is subject to the conditions laid down in the relevant Community provisions.

The column “Sensitive/non-sensitive” refers to the products included in the general arrangement (Article 7) and in the special incentive arrangement for sustainable development and good governance (Article 8). These products are listed as being either NS (non-sensitive, for the purposes of Article 7(1)) or S (sensitive, for the purposes of Article 7(2)).

For reasons of simplification, the products are listed in groups. These may include products for which Common Customs Tariff duties are exempted or suspended.
