Suspensions and Tariff Quotas import-export data and tools.
The main purpose of trade policy is to reduce/eliminate trade barriers.
Trade barriers include all measures that restrict international trade. Within the trade barriers, the Common Customs Tariff
is one of the trade policy instruments to improve the efficiency and competitiveness of the industry.
The interconnection of countries involved in the industry on the supply of raw materials is constantly growing.
Union European operators rely on 80% of imported inputs to carry out productive work, and the price of many basic raw materials for the European chemical industry is growing. Therefore, access to raw materials in better economic conditions
is a key element for the competitiveness of the company's chemical industry.
In this regard, the country can autonomously, temporarily, and non-discriminately adopt moratoriums and tariff quotas to improve the competitiveness of their companies and allow them to use supplies that are completely or partially exempt
from normal tariffs on raw materials. Materials, semi-finished products, or components that do not exist in the country import (suspended) or in insufficient quantities (quota).
The legal basis for regulating these suspensions and quotas in Union European is the Commission’s Notice on Autonomous Tariff Suspension and Quotas.
Autonomous Tariff Suspensions.
Commercial policy measures allow the exemption of tariffs on imported inputs in the absence of national production.
Autonomous tariff quotas.
In the EU, it is an autonomous and non-discriminatory way to establish autonomous tariff quotas. It is a measure of trade policy that allows full or partial exemption of tariff payments on imported inputs within quantitative limits.
When there is enough community production to meet industrial demand, tariff quotas are implemented regarding the capacity and sustainable goals of the country's origin.
