Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 70/2013 of 23 January 2013 concerning the classification of certain goods in the Combined Nomenclature
When the UK left the EU, legislation.gov.uk published EU legislation that had been published by the EU up to IP completion day (31 December 2020 11.00 p.m.). On legislation.gov.uk, these items of legislation are kept up-to-date with any amendments made by the UK since then.
Legislation.gov.uk publishes the UK version. EUR-Lex publishes the EU version. The EU Exit Web Archive holds a snapshot of EUR-Lex’s version from IP completion day (31 December 2020 11.00 p.m.).
This is the original version as it was originally adopted in the EU.
This legislation may since have been updated - see the latest available (revised) version
Description of the goods | Classification(CN code) | Reasons |
---|---|---|
(1) | (2) | (3) |
The product has the following composition (% by weight): — ethyl alcohol 90 — ethyl tertiary butyl ether (ETBE) 10 The product is transported in bulk. | 2207 20 00 | Classification is determined by the General Rules 1, 3(a) and 6 for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature and by the wording of CN codes 2207 and 2207 20 00. Heading 2207 provides a more specific description in comparison to heading 3824 which provides a more general description. Therefore, classification under heading 3824 is excluded by application of General Rule 3(a). The product is a simple mixture of ethyl alcohol and ETBE. The percentage level of ETBE in the product renders it unfit for human consumption but does not prevent the use of the product for industrial purposes (see also the HS Explanatory Notes to heading 2207, fourth paragraph). The product is therefore to be classified under CN code 2207 20 00 as denatured ethyl alcohol. |
