No update to the EU’s Common Customs Tariff was published today, continuing a quiet start to the week. However, a set of previously scheduled measures did take effect, introducing new certificate requirements for a chemical product (HS code 2812900000) from all non-EU countries, as per Regulation R0573/24.
Coming into force
The only regulatory movement today was the activation of pre-scheduled measures. As of today, new certificate requirements apply to imports of a chemical product under HS code 2812900000 from all non-EU origins. This change implements Regulation R0573/24.
What to watch
Today’s activation of new chemical controls is a concrete step in the large-scale regulatory update for the chemical and pharmaceutical sectors that we have been flagging. Attention remains on the several hundred other future-dated measures for goods in Chapters 28 and 29 that were published last week and are expected to take effect in the near future.
