With 3 Community Regulations (n. 475/2009, n. 476/2009 and n. 477/2009, all adopted on 5 June 2009), the European Commission establishes new rules concerning the classification of certain goods in the combined nomenclature.
Article 9, par. 1, point a) of the Council Regulation (EEC) n. 2658/87 del of 23 July 1987 (on the tariff and statistical nomenclature and on the Common Customs Tariff), that contains the general rules for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature (CN), attributes to the European Commission, in accordance with the Customs Code Committee procedure (Tariff and Statistic nomenclature Section), the possibility to adopt some measures regarding the classification of goods with the aim of ensuring the uniform application of the CN, which is enclosed to this Regulation. Those rules apply also to any other nomenclature which is wholly or partly based on it or which adds any additional subdivision to it and which is established by specific Community provisions, with a view to the application of tariff and other measures relating to trade in goods.
