Notwithstanding the rules for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature, the wording for the description of the products is to be considered as having no more than an indicative value, the preferential scheme being determined, within the context of this Annex, by the coverage of CN codes. Where ex CN codes are indicated, the preferential scheme is to be determined by application of the CN code and corresponding description taken together.
For the year 2013, an increase of the volume of the tariff quota by 40 500 hl as from 1 July 2013, calculated as a pro rata of the basic volume by taking into account the part of the period elapsed before 1 July 2013, shall be distributed, on a first-come, first-serve basis and subject to an application, amongst operators having imported wines originating in the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia under these tariff lines in 2013.
Consultations at the request of one of the Contracting Parties may be held to adapt the quotas by transferring quantities above 6 000 hl from the quota applying to position ex 2204 29 (order number 09.1559) to the quota applying to positions ex 2204 10 and ex 2204 21 (order number 09.1558).
From 1 January 2015, this quota volume is to be increased annually by 6 000 hl.
From 1 January 2015, this quota volume is to be reduced annually by 6 000 hl.
