Deductions from the quota volumeU.K.
This section has no associated Explanatory Memorandum
12.—(1) Deductions from the quota volume must be made in the order in which Customs accept the request to benefit from the relevant quota, together with the associated declaration for a customs procedure.
(2) For the purposes of paragraph (1), the order of acceptance of the goods by Customs is determined by reference to the date of acceptance by Customs of the declaration for a customs procedure.
(3) Where the declaration for a customs procedure is accepted by Customs on 1st, 2nd or 3rd January of any year, the declaration is deemed to have been accepted on 3rd January of the same year or, if 3rd January is not a working day, on the next working day following 3rd January.
(4) Where acceptance by Customs of any request referred to in paragraph (1) occurs on the same day as acceptance by Customs of the associated declaration for a customs procedure for the goods, acceptance of the request and of the declaration is to be treated as having occurred simultaneously.
(5) Subject to paragraph (7), the quantity to be deducted from the quota volume is the quantity of goods for which Customs has accepted the request to benefit from the relevant quota.
(6) When the quantity of quota goods deducted from the quota volume for those goods in any quota period is equal to the quota volume, the quota is exhausted.
(7) On a day when the total quantity of goods for which requests under paragraph (1) are accepted exceeds the remaining quota volume, deductions must be apportioned between all such requests on a pro rata basis calculated by reference to the quantity of goods requested in each case.
(8) For the purposes of this regulation, where a quota (“a linked quota”) is linked to one or more other quotas by virtue of being entered in the Quota Table against the same corresponding quota volume, a deduction from quota volume for the linked quota in respect of a quantity of imported quota goods is also to operate as a deduction in respect of the same quantity of goods from each of the other quotas.
[F1(9) Where the entry for a linked quota in column 1 of the Quota Table is followed by a reference to a “coefficient”, the quantity of imported quota goods which is to be deducted from quota volume for the purposes of paragraph (8) is subject to the application of the coefficient specified for that entry.]
