ANNEX

I.For the purposes of implementing the tariff reductions provided for in Article 1, the following products, provided they are transported directly to the Community, shall be considered as originating in Norway:

(a)

products obtained by fishing conducted in Norway;

(b)

products taken from the sea by Norwegian vessels;

(c)

products made aboard Norwegian factory ships exclusively from products referred to in subparagraph (b);

(d)

goods produced in Norway from products specified in subparagraphs (a), (b) and (c).

The term ‘in Norway’ shall cover also the territorial waters of Norway. Vessels operating on the high seas, including factory ships, on which the fish caught is worked or processed shall be considered as part of the territory of Norway provided that satisfy the conditions set out below concerning vessels.

The term ‘Norwegian vessels’ shall apply only to vessels:

  • which are registered in Norway;

  • which sail under the flag of Norway;

  • which are at least 50 % owned by nationals of Member States of the Community or of Norway or by a company with its head office in one of those States, of which the manager or managers, chairman of the board of directors or of the supervisory board, and the majority of the members of such boards are nationals of the Member States of the Community or of Norway, and of which, in addition, in the case of partnerships or limited companies, at least half the capital belongs to those States or to public bodies or nationals of the said States;

  • of which the captain and all the officers are nationals of the Member States of the Community or of Norway;

  • of which at least 75 % of the crew are nationals of the Member States of the Community or of Norway.

II.Products shall be regarded as being transported directly from Norway to the Community where they cross no territories other than those of Norway and of the Community. Such goods, where they constitute one single shipment which is not split up, may however be transported through territory other than that of Norway or of the Community and may where necessary be trans-shipped or temporarily warehoused in such territory, provided that the crossing of such territory is justified for geographical reasons, that the goods have remained under the surveillance of the customs authorities in the country of transit or of warehousing, that they have not entered into the commerce of such countries or been entered for home use there and have not undergone operations other than unloading, reloading or any operation designed to preserve them in good condition.

III.Originating products within the meaning of this Annex shall, on import into the Community, benefit from the provisions of Article 1 on production of a EUR.l movement certificate as issued by the Norwegian customs authorities under the EEC-Norway Agreement on written application by the exporter made out on the form prescribed for this purpose.

IV.The provisions of Protocol 3 annexed to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1691/73 of 25 June 1973 which relate to the issuing of certificates, the limit for the submission of such certificates to the customs authorities of the importing State and mutual assistance between Norway and Member States for the purpose of checking the authenticity and accuracy of movement certificates, shall apply.
