COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION(EU) 2026/1183
of 2 June 2026
amending Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2447 as regards procedural rules on the preferential
origin of goods
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 952/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 9 October 2013 laying
down the Union Customs Code(1), and in particular Article 25, first paragraph, point (c), and Article 66, first paragraph,
point (a), thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2447(2)lays down, inter alia, the procedural rules, referred to in
Article 64(1) of Regulation (EU) No 952/2013 (‘the Code’), to facilitate the establishment in the Union of the
preferential origin of goods. Taking into account the end of the transition period until the full application of the
Registered Exporter system (‘the REX system’) within the framework of the Generalised System of Preferences (‘the
GSP’) of the Union, the extension of the REX system to Union exporters within the framework of Free Trade
agreements of the Union, the specific questions raised about provisions currently in force or which may need to be
included in Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2447, and the implementation of certain Free Trade agreement
procedures requiring legislation at Union level, it is necessary to amend those rules accordingly.
(2) In order to best accommodate the changes in the application of the procedural rules concerning the preferential
origin of goods, the section on preferential origin should be restructured into subsections with new subsections
related to preferential agreements, the REX system and the GSP. As a result of that restructuring, the current
subsection 10, related to autonomous trade measures, should remain unchanged and become subsection 5, and
subsections 11 and 12 should be renumbered subsection 6 and subsection 7 respectively.
(3) It is necessary to introduce new definitions for the document on origin, the preferential agreement, the supplier, the
customer and the originating status in order to achieve clarity in the application of the procedural rules for
preferential origin of goods.
(4) To support uniform access to and management of the approved exporter authorisations in the Union, the current
provisions on the approved exporter authorisation should be simplified and limited to procedural provisions outside
those specified in preferential agreements.
(5) To ensure a uniform implementation across the Member States of options available to the Union by preferential
agreements, procedural provisions should be introduced concerning accounting segregation, the acceptance of a
document on origin for multiple shipments of identical products, the exemption from the obligation to provide
documents on origin, the acceptance or imposition of conditions on a claim for preferential tariff treatment based
on importer’s knowledge and the possibility to waive the requirement for a document on origin to be signed by the
exporter.
(6) To limit the administrative burden for the customs authorities as well as for economic operators, the replacement of
documents on origin in the Union should be simplified and their verification facilitated by introducing
administrative cooperation between Member States.
(1) OJ L 269, 10.10.2013, p. 1, ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2013/952/oj.
(2) Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2447 of 24 November 2015 laying down detailed rules for implementing certain
provisions of Regulation (EU) No 952/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council laying down the Union Customs Code
(OJ L 343, 29.12.2015, p. 558, ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg_impl/2015/2447/oj).
ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg_impl/2026/1183/oj 1/49EN
OJ L, 3.6.2026
(7) To increase the flexibility and reduce the administrative burden, the possibility of the acceptance of documents on
origin after the expiry of their period of validity, as is currently applicable to statements on origin under the rules of
the GSP scheme of the Union, should become applicable to all documents on origin and a respective legal framework
for such acceptance should be introduced.
(8) To enhance the administrative cooperation overall, the existing requirements on the notification of the respective
competent authorities of the Member States, as are currently applicable to the administrative cooperation under the
rules of the GSP scheme of the Union, should become applicable to the administrative cooperation with third
countries under preferential agreements and in the field of the supplier’s declarations.
(9) To avoid increasing the administrative burden for economic operators and for customs authorities, the threshold of
EUR 6 000 up to which an exporter who is not a registered exporter may complete a document on origin should be
maintained both for Union exporters and GSP beneficiary countries’ exporters. Nonetheless, where a preferential
trade agreement between the Union and a third country explicitly states that exporters must indicate their
identification number in the document on origin independently of the value of the exported goods, no threshold
should be used by exporters. Moreover, to increase the transparency of transactions and allow for better monitoring,
exporters who are registered in the Union and GSP beneficiary countries should always indicate their REX
identification number in their statements on origin and origin declarations, independently of the value of the goods
for which the statement or origin declaration is made out.
(10) To streamline the existing provisions on the registration of exporters and re-consignors in the REX system, those
provisions should be consolidated in subsection 2. That subsection should set out the scope of application of the
REX system in the Union, including the procedural framework for that application, and in third countries, and
should also cover provisions on the publication of the data contained in the REX system. The current provisions on
the registered exporters’ database concerning the access rights to the database and the data protection should be
deleted as they exist in Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2025/512(3).
(11) To support and unify the practice of monitoring in the Member States, a provision should be added on the
monitoring of registered exporters in the Union.
(12) Following the end of the transition from the use of the certificate of origin Form A to self-certification with the REX
system, the provisions on the procedural rules of preferential origin for the purposes of the GSP scheme of the Union,
including the obligations of the beneficiary countries in respect of registration in the REX system and administrative
cooperation, should be updated and grouped in a new subsection 3.
(13) To enhance the supervision and monitoring of the beneficiary countries by the competent authorities, the provisions
on the obligations of exporters should be streamlined, and an explicit obligation should be included for exporters to
provide to the competent authorities of the beneficiary country with copies or lists of the statements on origin they
have made out.
(14) To limit the administrative burden both for the customs authorities and for economic operators, the provisions on
the admissibility of a claim for preferential tariff treatment under the GSP scheme of the Union, as well as the
provisions on the replacement of statements on origin, should be simplified.
(15) To strengthen legal certainty and equal treatment of verification requests, the provision on the verification of claims
for GSP preferential tariff treatment should be modified by removing the distinction between requests based on
reasonable doubts and random requests, in line with the recent preferential agreements, and all requests should be
based on risk assessment. In order to ensure the continued compliance of registered exporters with their obligations,
the competent authorities of GSP beneficiary countries should carry out verifications of the originating status of
products and regular controls on registered exporters.
(3) Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2025/512 of 13 March 2025 on technical arrangements for developing, maintaining and
employing electronic systems for the exchange and storage of information under Regulation (EU) No 952/2013 of the European
Parliament and of the Council (OJ L, 2025/512, 20.3.2025, ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg_impl/2025/512/oj).
2/49 ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg_impl/2026/1183/ojEN
OJ L, 3.6.2026
(16) In order to improve administrative cooperation between the Union, Norway and Switzerland, it is necessary to set up
appropriate time limits to carry out in the Union the verifications of replacement statements on origin made out in
Norway or Switzerland.
(17) To strengthen the use of the rules under the GSP scheme of the Union, the procedural rules on the management of
registrations in a beneficiary country should be simplified by removing the reference to ‘re-consignors’.
(18) Consequently, to support the streamlined rules, certain Annexes to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2447
(Annexes 22-02, 22-06, 22-08, 22-09 and 22-16 to 22-19) should be deleted, and Annexes 22-06A, 22-07, 22-15
and 22-20 should be modified. A new Annex 22-06B should be inserted.
(19) To modernise customs procedures and ensure the secure and efficient management of proofs of origin, a central
system of electronic Proof of origin Certificates (the EU e-PoC system) should be established. This system should be
made available to Member States and, where provided for in preferential agreements of the Union, to third countries,
to replace the current use of paper certificates with a fully electronic process. The introduction of the EU e-PoC
system is necessary to harmonise the issuance, verification and exchange of proofs of origin, improve the security of
transactions and data, and automate authenticity controls. By facilitating the dematerialisation of documents, this
system should also ease goods import and export formalities, thereby simplifying customs procedures for both
customs authorities and economic operators.
(20) The Commission should ensure the interconnection of the EU e-PoC system with national customs systems via the
European Union Customs Single Window Certificate Exchange System (EU CSW-CERTEX) established by Regulation
(EU) 2022/2399 of the European Parliament and of the Council(4), for the purpose of enabling the automated
exchange of information between Member States’ national customs systems and the EU e-PoC system. The
interconnection aims to streamline the verifications of movement certificates EUR.1 in the EU e-PoC system during
customs clearance. Article 17 of Appendix 1 to the Regional Convention on pan-Euro-Mediterranean Preferential
Rules of Origin(5)provides that ‘two or more Contracting Parties may agree among them to establish a system that
allows proofs of origin listed in paragraph 1 to be issued electronically and/or submitted electronically. On
7 December 2023, the pan-Euro-Mediterranean Joint Committee adopted revised rules of origin under the PEM
Convention with an implementation date of 1 January 2025. To facilitate this transition, the Commission should
establish the EU e-PoC system, ensuring that the electronic certification of origin is implemented in accordance with
the minimum conditions for electronic certificates adopted by the Joint Committee.
(21) In order to adapt the supplier’s declaration to actual production and supply chains and to requirements pertaining to
the establishment of preferential origin by exporters and its verification by customs authorities, the supplier’s
declaration should be based on a list of standardised and codified data elements, which would facilitate their
electronic exchange and processing between suppliers and exporters. In respect of the verification of supplier’s
declarations, the process should be streamlined by applying solely administrative cooperation between the customs
authorities of the Member States.
(22) In order to allow the customs authorities of the Member States sufficient time to prepare for the changes to the
provisions related to the supplier’s declaration, the application of those provisions should be deferred.
(23) Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2447 should therefore be amended accordingly.
(24) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Customs Code Committee,
(4) Regulation (EU) 2022/2399 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 November 2022 establishing the European Union
Single Window Environment for Customs and amending Regulation (EU) No 952/2013, (OJ L 317, 9.12.2022, p. 1, ELI: http://data.
europa.eu/eli/reg/2022/2399/oj).

State, responsible in the place where the importer is established, to verify the preferential origin of the goods
concerned. The requesting customs authorities shall send the requested customs authorities all available information
and documents and give the reasons for their verification request. The requesting customs authorities shall be
informed of the results of the verification no later than 120 days from the date of the verification request. Where
there is no reply within that time limit, or where the information contained in the reply is inadequate to confirm the
preferential origin of the goods, the requesting customs authorities may deny preferential tariff treatment.

the goods for free circulation within the Union. The validity of the replacement document shall not exceed the
validity period of the replaced document.
2. The replacement document on origin referred to in paragraph 1 may be made out by a registered exporter or
re-consignor established in the customs territory of the Union, in the form of a replacement statement on origin,
and shall comply with the requirements laid down in Annex 22-20.

Blank boxes in columns 3 to 8 of the table mean that there is no such status for the D.E. at stake, insofar as the
column is concerned. The optional status of a data element for the supplier as determined in this Annex is without
prejudice to contractual arrangements between the supplier and the customer providing otherwise.
4. The “M” or “O” symbols have no bearing on the fact that certain data elements are required only where the type of
supplier’s declaration or the circumstances warrant it. They may be complemented by conditions or clarifications
listed in Notes of the data requirements table in Chapter 3.
5. The specific provisions and codes in relation to data requirements set out in Title II shall apply without prejudice to
the status of the data element concerned, as defined in the data requirements table in Chapter 3.
6. Without affecting the obligation for the supplier to provide data in accordance with this Annex and without prejudice
to Article 61(4) and (5), the content of the data provided by the supplier to the customer for a given requirement is
based on the information as known by the supplier at the time the supplier’s declaration is provided to the customer.
7. In pdf or printed versions of the supplier’s declarations, codes may be replaced by their meaning in plain language.
