That additional import duty shall apply if the quantity of any of the products put into free circulation for any of the periods of application set out in that Annex exceeds the trigger volume for that product unless the imports are unlikely to disturb the Union market, or the effects of the additional import duty would be disproportionate to the intended objective. 2 For each of the products listed in Annex VII and during the periods indicated in that Annex, Member States shall notify the Commission of details of the volumes put into free circulation using the method for the surveillance of preferential imports set out in Article 55 of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2447. 3 The additional import duty shall be levied on quantities put into free circulation after the date of application of that duty, provided that: a their customs value determined in accordance with Article 74 of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2017/891 entails the application of the highest specific duties applicable to imports of the origin in question; and b the import takes place during the period of application of the additional import duty.
