Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/2198
of 22 December 2020
correcting Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/1628 introducing retrospective Union surveillance of imports of renewable ethanol for fuel

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EU) 2015/478 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 March 2015 on common rules for imports, and in particular Article 10 thereof,
OJ L83, 27.3.2015, p.16.
Having regard to Regulation (EU) 2015/755 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 29 April 2015 on common rules for imports from certain third countries, and in particular Article 7 thereof,
OJ L123, 19.5.2015, p.33.
After consulting the Committee on Safeguards and Common Rules for exports,
Whereas:
(1) By Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/1628, the Commission has introduced retrospective Union surveillance of imports of renewable ethanol for fuel.
Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/1628 of 3 November 2020 introducing retrospective Union surveillance of imports of renewable ethanol for fuel (OJ L 366, 4.11.2020, p. 12).
(2) In the Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/1628 the product concerned covers ethyl alcohol produced from agricultural products contained in Ethyl tert-butyl ether (ETBE), but the corresponding CN code for ‘ETBE’ was erroneously missing in the list of the CN codes in the table of the Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/1628. The CN code ex 2909 19 10 therefore has to be added by amending the table in the Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/1628.
(3) The Commission considers that the error does not raise any concerns since Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/1628 referred to ‘renewable ethanol for fuel’ as the product subject to retrospective Union surveillance and the CN and TARIC codes were provided for information only,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1 The table in the Annex to Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/1628 is replaced by the following:

‘CN CODES	TARIC CODE EXTENSIONS
