If one of the Contracting Parties finds that dumping is taking place in trade with the other Contracting Party, it may take appropriate measures against this practice in accordance with the Agreement on implementation of Article VI of the General Agreement on tariffs and trade, under the conditions and in accordance with the procedures laid down in Article 33. 2.

Provision may be made for contributions to risk capital formation, to be charged against the amount shown in (b). 2. The loans referred to in paragraph 1 (a) shall generally be combined with interest rate subsidies of up to 2 % financed by means of the funds shown in paragraph 1 (c). Article 3\n1. The total amount fixed in Article 2 shall be used for the financing or part-financing of:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u2014\n\n\ncapital projects in the fields of production and economic infrastructure, aimed in particular at diversifying Syria's economic structure and, especially, at promoting its industrialization and modernizing its agriculture,\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u2014\n\n\ntechnical cooperation as a preliminary or complement to capital projects drawn up by Syria,\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u2014\n\n\ntechnical cooperation in the field of training. 2.

Any funds not committed by the end of the period referred to in Article 2 (1) shall be used, until exhausted, in accordance with the same arrangements as provided for in this Protocol. Article 6\n1. Loans granted by the Bank from its own resources shall be subject to terms as to duration established on the basis of the economic and financial characteristics of the projects for which such loans are intended. The interest rate shall be that applied by the Bank at the time of the signing of each loan contract, subject to the interest rate subsidy referred to in Article 2 (2). 2. Loans on special terms shall be granted for 40 years with an amortization period of 10 years. The interest rate shall be fixed at 1 %. 3. The loans may be granted through the intermediary of the State or appropriate Syrian bodies, on condition that they onlend the amounts to the recipients on terms decided, by agreement with the Community, on the basis of the economic and financial characteristics of the projects.

Within the framework established pursuant to paragraph 1, financial and technical cooperation shall apply to projects and measures drawn up by Syria or by other beneficiaries approved by that country. Article 10\n1.

As regards projects and measures financed by the Community, participation in tendering procedures and other procedures for the award of contracts shall be open, on equal terms, to all natural or legal persons of the Member States and of Syria. 2. To promote participation by Syrian undertakings in the performance of works contracts, an accelerated procedure for issuing invitations to tender involving shorter time limits for the submission of tenders may be used at the proposal of the relevant Community body where the works in question, because of their scale, are mainly of interest to Syrian undertakings. This accelerated procedure may be used for invitations to tender the value of which is estimated at less than one million European units of account. 3. Participation by other countries in contracts financed by the Community may be decided by mutual agreement in exceptional cases. Participation by third countries may also be decided on, in the same circumstances, where the Community participates in the financing of schemes together with other sources of funds. Article 13\nUnder its national law in force, Syria shall apply to contracts awarded for the execution of projects or measures financed by the Community fiscal and customs arrangements as favourable as those applied in respect of other international organizations.

Article 15\nThroughout the duration of the loans accorded pursuant to this Protocol, Syria shall undertake to make available to debtors enjoying such loans the foreign currency necessary for the payment of interest and commission and the repayment of principal. Article 16\nThe results of financial and technical cooperation shall be examined annually by the Cooperation Council. The latter shall define, where appropriate, the general guidelines of such cooperation.

Evidence that the conditions referred to in paragraph 1 have been fulfilled shall be supplied to the responsible customs authorities in the Community or in Syria by the production of:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n(a)\n\n\na through bill of lading issued in the exporting country covering the passage through the country of transit; or\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n(b)\n\n\na certificate issued by the customs authorities of the country of transit:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u2014\n\n\ngiving an exact description of the goods,\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u2014\n\n\nstating the dates of unloading and reloading of the goods or of their embarkation or disembarkation, identifying the ships used,\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u2014\n\n\ncertifying the conditions under which the goods remained in the transit country;\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n(c)\n\n\nor failing these, any substantiating documents. TITLE II\n\nArrangements for administrative cooperation\n\nArticle 6\n1. Evidence of the originating status of products, within the meaning of this Protocol, is given by a movement certificate EUR. 1, a specimen of which is given in Annex V to this Protocol. However, evidence of the originating status of products, within the meaning of this Protocol, which form the subject of postal consignments (including parcels), provided that they consist only of originating products and that the value does not exceed 1\u00a0000 units of account per consignment, may be given by a form EUR. 2, a specimen of which is given in Annex VI to this Protocol. The unit of account (u. a. ) has a value of 088867088 gram of fine gold. Should the unit of account be changed, the Contracting Parties shall make contact with each other at the level of the Cooperation Council to redefine the value in terms of gold. 2. Without prejudice to Article 3 (3), where, at the request of the person declaring the goods at the customs, a dismantled or non-assembled article falling within Chapter 84 or 85 of the Brussels Nomenclature is imported by instalments on the conditions laid down by the competent authorities, it shall be considered to be a single article and a movement certificate may be submitted for the whole article upon importation of the first instalment. 3. Accessories, spare parts and tools dispatched with a piece of equipment, machine, apparatus or vehicle which are part of the normal equipment and included in the price thereof or are not separately invoiced are regarded as one with the piece of equipment, machine, apparatus or vehicle in question. Article 7\n1. A movement certificate EUR1 shall be issued by the customs authorities of the exporting State when the goods to which it relates are exported. It shall be made available to the exporter as soon as actual exportation has been effected or ensured. 2. In exceptional circumstances a movement certificate EUR. 1 may also be issued after the exportation of the goods to which it relates if it was not issued at the time of exportation because of errors, involuntary omissions or special circumstances. In this case, the certificate shall bear a special reference to the conditions in which it was issued. 3. A movement certificate EUR. 1 shall be issued only where application has been made in writing by the exporter. Such application shall be made on a form, a specimen of which is given in Annex V to this Protocol, which shall be completed in accordance with this Protocol. 4. A movement certificate EUR. 1 may be issued only where it can serve as the documentary evidence required for the purpose of implementing the Agreement. 5. Applications for movement certificates EUR. 1 must be preserved for at least two years by the customs authorities of the exporting State. Article 8\n1. A movement certificate EUR. 1 shall be issued by the customs authorities of the exporting State, if the goods can be considered \u2018originating products\u2019 within the meaning of this Protocol. 2. For the purpose of verifying whether the conditions stated in paragraph 1 have been met, the customs authorities shall have the right to call for any documentary evidence or to carry out any check which they consider appropriate. 3. It shall be the responsibility of the customs authorities of the exporting State to ensure that the forms referred to in Article 9 are duly completed. In particular, they shall check whether the space reserved for the description of the goods has been completed in such a manner as to exclude all possibility of fraudulent additions. To this end, the description of the goods must be indicated without leaving any blank lines. Where the space is not completely filled a horizontal line must be drawn below the last line of the description, the empty space being crossed through. 4. The date of issue of the movement certificate must be indicated in the part of the certificate reserved for the customs authorities. Article 9\nMovement certificates EUR. 1 shall be made out on the form a specimen of which is given in Annex V to this Protocol.

Certificates shall be made out in one of these languages and in accordance with the provisions of the domestic law of the exporting State; if they are handwritten, they shall be completed in ink and in capital letters. Each certificate shall measure 210 x 297 mm; a tolerance of up to plus 8 mm or minus 5 mm in the length shall be allowed. The paper used must be white sized writing paper not containing mechanical pulp and weighing not less than 25 g/m2. It shall have a printed green guilloche pattern background making any falsification by mechanical or chemical means apparent to the eye. The exporting States may reserve the right to print the certificates themselves or may have them printed by approved printers. In the latter case, each certificate must include a reference to such approval. Each certificate must bear the name and address of the printer or a mark by which the printer can be identified. It shall also bear a serial number, either printed or not, by which it can be identified. Article 10\n1. Under the responsibility of the exporter, he or his authorized representative shall request the issue of a movement certificate EUR. 1. 2. The exporter or his representative shall submit with his request any appropriate supporting document proving that the goods to be exported are such as to qualify for the issue of a movement certificate EUR. 1. Article 11\nA movement certificate EUR. 1 must be submitted, within five months of the date of issue by the customs authorities of the exporting State, to the customs authorities of the importing State where the goods are entered. Article 12\nMovement certificates EUR. 1 shall be submitted to customs authorities in the importing State, in accordance with the procedures laid down by that State. The said authorities may require a translation of a certificate. They may also require the import declaration to be accompanied by a statement from the importer to the effect that the goods meet the conditions required for the implementation of the Agreement. Article 13\n1. A movement certificate EUR. 1 which is submitted to the customs authorities of the importing State after the final date for presentation specified in Article 11 may be accepted for the purpose of applying preferential treatment, where the failure to submit the certificate by the final date set is due to reasons of force majeure or exceptional circumstances. 2. In other cases of belated presentation, the customs authorities of the importing State may accept the certificates where the goods have been submitted to them before the said final date. Article 14\nThe discovery of slight discrepancies between the statements made in the movement certificate EUR. 1 and those made in the documents submitted to the customs office for the purpose of carrying out the formalities for importing the goods shall not ipso facto render the certificate null and void if it is duly established that the certificate does correspond to the goods submitted. Article 15\nIt shall always be possible to replace one or more movement certificates EUR. 1 by one or more other movement certificates EUR. 1 provided that this is done at the customs office where the goods are located. Article 16\nForm EUR. 2, a specimen of which is given in Annex VI, shall be completed by the exporter or, under his responsibility, by his authorized representative. It shall be made out in one of the languages in which the Agreement is drawn up and in accordance with the provisions of the domestic law of the exporting State. If it is handwritten it must be completed in ink and in capital letters. If the goods contained in the consignment have already been subject to verification in the exporting country by reference to the definition of the concept of \u2018originating products\u2019 the exporter may refer to this check in the \u2018Remarks\u2019 box of form EUR. 2. Form EUR. 2 shall measure 210 X 148 mm. A tolerance of up to plus 8 mm or minus 5 mm in the length shall be allowed. The paper used shall be white sized writing paper not containing mechanical pulp and weighing not less than 64 g/m2.

In addition, the form must bear the distinctive sign attributed to the approved printer and a serial number, either printed or not, by which it can be identified. A form EUR. 2 shall be completed for each postal consignment. These provisions do not exempt exporters from complying with any other formalities required by customs or postal regulations. Article 17\n1. Goods sent as small packages to private persons or forming part of travellers' personal luggage shall be admitted as originating products without requiring the production of a movement certificate EUR. 1 or the completion of a form EUR. 2, provided that such goods are not imported by way of trade and have been declared as meeting the conditions required for the application of these provisions, and where there is no doubt as to the veracity of such declaration. 2. Importations which are occasional and consist solely of goods for the personal use of the recipients or travellers or their families shall not be considered as importations by way of trade if it is evident from the nature and quantity of the goods that no commercial purpose is in view. Furthermore, the total value of these goods must not exceed 60 units of account in the case of small packages or 200 units of account in the case of the contents of travellers' personal luggage. Article 18\n1. Goods sent from the Community or from Syria for exhibition in another country and sold after the exhibition for importation into Syria or into the Community shall benefit on importation from the provisions of the Agreement on condition that the goods meet the requirements of this Protocol entitling them to be recognized as originating in the Community or in Syria and provided that it is shown to the satisfaction of the customs authorities that:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n(a)\n\n\nan exporter has consigned these goods from the Community or from Syria to the country in which the exhibition is held and has exhibited them there;\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n(b)\n\n\nthe goods have been sold or otherwise disposed of by that exporter to someone in Syria or in the Community;\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n(c)\n\n\nthe goods have been consigned during the exhibition or immediately thereafter to Syria or to the Community in the state in which they were sent for exhibition;\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n(d)\n\n\nthe goods have not, since they were consigned for exhibition, been used for any purpose other than demonstration at the exhibition. 2. A movement certificate EUR. 1 must be produced to the customs authorities in the normal manner. The name and address of the exhibition must be indicated thereon. Where necessary, additional documentary evidence of the nature of the goods and the conditions under which they have been exhibited may be required. 3. Paragraph 1 shall apply to any trade, industrial, agricultural or crafts exhibition, fair or similar public show or display which is not organized for private purposes in shops or business premises with a view to the sale of foreign goods, and during which the goods remain under customs control. Article 19\n1. When a certificate is issued within the meaning of Article 7 (2) of this Protocol after the goods to which it relates have actually been exported, the exporter must in the application referred to in Article 7 (3) of this Protocol:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u2014\n\n\nindicate the place and date of exportation of the goods to which the certificate relates,\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u2014\n\n\ncertify that no movement certificate EUR. 1 was issued at the time of the exportation of the goods in question, and state the reasons. 2. The customs authorities may issue a movement certificate EUR. 1 retrospectively only after verifying that the information supplied in the exporter's application agrees with that in the corresponding file. Certificates issued retrospectively must be endorsed with one of the following phrases: \u2018NACHTR\u00c4GLICH AUSGESTELLT\u2019, \u2018D\u00c9LIVR\u00c9 A POSTERIORI\u2019, \u2018RILASCIATO A POSTERIORI\u2019, \u2018AFGEGEVEN A POSTERIORI\u2019, \u2018ISSUED RETROSPECTIVELY\u2019, \u2018UDSTEDT EFTERF\u00d8LGENDE\u2019, \u2018\u2019. Article 20\nIn the event of the theft, loss or destruction of a movement certificate EUR. 1, the exporter may apply to the customs authorities which issued it for a duplicate made out on the basis of the export documents in their possession. The duplicate issued in this way must be endorsed with one of the following words: \u2018DUPLIKAT\u2019, \u2018DUPLICATA\u2019, \u2018DUPLICATO\u2019, \u2018DUPLICAAT\u2019, \u2018DUPLICATE\u2019, \u2018\u2019. Article 21\nSyria and the Community shall take all necessary steps to ensure that goods traded under cover of a movement certificate EUR. 1 which in the course of transport use a free zone situated in their territory are not replaced by other goods and that they do not undergo handling other than normal operations designed to prevent their deterioration. Article 22\nIn order to ensure the proper application of this Title, Syria and the Community shall assist each other, through their respective customs administrations, in checking the authenticity of movement certificates EUR. 1 and the accuracy of the information concerning the actual origin of the products concerned and the declarations by exporters on forms EUR. 2. Article 23\nPenalties shall be imposed on any person who, in order to enable goods to be accepted as eligible for preferential treatment, draws up or causes to be drawn up either a document which contains incorrect particulars for the purpose of obtaining a movement certificate EUR. 1 or a form EUR. 2 containing incorrect particulars. Article 24\n1. Subsequent verification of movement certificates EUR. 1 and of forms EUR. 2 shall be carried out at random or whenever the customs authorities of the importing State have reasonable doubt as to the authenticity of the document or the accuracy of the information regarding the true origin of the goods in question. 2. For the purpose of implementing paragraph 1, the customs authorities of the importing State shall return the movement certificate EUR. 1 or the form EUR. 2 or a photocopy thereof, to the customs authorities of the exporting State, giving, where appropriate, the reasons of form or substance for an inquiry. The invoice, if it has been submitted, or a copy thereof shall be attached to the form EUR. 2 and the customs authorities shall forward any information that has been obtained suggesting that the particulars given on the said certificate or the said form are inaccurate. If the customs authorities of the importing State decide to suspend implementation of Title I of the Agreement while awaiting the results of the verification, they shall offer to release the goods to the importer subject to any precautionary measures judged necessary. 3. The customs authorities of the importing State shall be informed of the results of the verification as quickly as possible. These results must be such as to make it possible to determine whether the disputed movement certificate EUR. 1 or form EUR. 2 applies to the goods actually exported, and whether these goods can, in fact, qualify for the application of the preferential arrangements. If such disputes cannot be settled between the customs authorities of the importing State and those of the exporting State, or if they raise a question as to the interpretation of this Protocol, they shall be submitted to the Customs Cooperation Committee. In all cases the settlement of disputes between the importer and the customs authorities of the importing State shall be under the legislation of the importing State. Article 25\nThe Cooperation Council may decide to amend the provisions of this Protocol. Article 26\n1. The Community and Syria shall take any measures necessary to enable movement certificates EUR. 1 as well as forms EUR. 2 to be submitted, in accordance with Articles 11 and 12 of this Protocol, from the day on which it enters into force. 2. The movement certificates EUR. 1 and the forms EUR. 2 printed in the Member States before the date of the entry into force of this Protocol which do not conform to the models in Annexes V and VI to this Protocol may continue to be used until stocks are exhausted, under the conditions laid down by this Protocol. Article 27\nThe Community and Syria shall each take the steps necessary to implement this Protocol. Article 28\nThe Annexes to this Protocol shall form an integral part thereof. Article 29\nThe provisions of the Agreement may be applied to goods which comply with the provisions of Title I and which, on the date of the entry into force of the Agreement, are either in transit, or are in the Community or in Syria in temporary storage, in bonded warehouses or in free zones, subject to the submission to the customs authorities of the importing State within four months from that date of a certificate EUR. 1 endorsed retrospectively by the competent authorities of the exporting State together with the documents showing that the goods have been transported directly.
