THE COOPERATION COMMITTEE,
Having regard to the Agreement on Cooperation and Customs Union between the European Community and its Member States, of the one part, and the Republic of San Marino, of the other part(1), and in particular Article 22 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Article 21 of the Agreement on Cooperation and Customs Union between the European Community and its Member States, of the one part, and the Republic of San Marino, of the other part (the ‘Agreement’) lays down the principles for the coordination of the social security systems of San Marino and the Member States.
(2) Article 22 of the Agreement provides that the Cooperation Committee is to adopt provisions to implement those principles.
(3) With regard to the application of the non-discrimination principle, this Decision should not give any additional rights arising from certain facts or events occurring on the territory of the other Contracting Party, where such facts or events are not taken into account under the legislation of the first Contracting Party, other than the right to export certain benefits.
(4) In applying this Decision, the right of San Marino workers to family benefits should be subject to the condition that their family members legally reside with them in the Member State where they are employed. Where their family members legally reside in another Member State, Regulation (EU) No 1231/2010 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 24 November 2010 extending Regulation (EC) No 883/2004 and Regulation (EC) No 987/2009 to nationals of third countries who are not already covered by these Regulations solely on the ground of their nationality(2) applies. This Decision should not give any entitlement to family benefits with respect to the family members of a worker who reside in a country other than a Member State, for instance San Marino.
(5) Regulation (EU) No 1231/2010 extends the application of the provisions of Regulation (EC) No 883/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 29 April 2004 on the coordination of social security systems(3) and of Regulation (EC) No 987/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 September 2009 laying down the procedure for implementing Regulation (EC) No 883/2004 on the coordination of social security systems(4) to nationals of third countries who are not already covered by those provisions solely on the grounds of their nationality. Regulation (EU) No 1231/2010 already covers the principle of aggregation of insurance periods acquired by workers of San Marino nationality in the various Member States regarding entitlement to certain benefits, as set out in Article 21(2) of the Agreement.
(6) It may be necessary to lay down special provisions which correspond to the specific characteristics of the legislation of San Marino in order to facilitate the application of the coordination rules.
(7) In order to ensure the smooth functioning of the coordination of the social security systems of the Member States and of San Marino, it is necessary to provide for specific provisions regarding cooperation between the Member States and San Marino, as well as between the person concerned and the institution of the competent State.
(8) Transitional provisions should be adopted in order to protect the persons covered by this Decision and to ensure that they do not lose any rights as a result of its entry into force,

Nevertheless, those measures shall be equivalent to those applicable to similar situations under national law and they shall not make it impossible or excessively difficult in practice for claimants to exercise the rights conferred on them by this Decision.
7.The Member States and San Marino may provide for national provisions that establish conditions for the verification of entitlement to benefits in order to take into account the fact that the beneficiaries stay or reside outside the territory of the State where the debtor institution is located.
