EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the instrument and does not purport to be a legal interpretation.)
Section 104(2)(a) of the Finance Act 2001 provides for a relief from excise duty for excisable products acquired by a private individual in another Member State of the Community and transported by that person to the State. The Excise Duty on Tobacco Products (Quantitative Restrictions) Order 2004 excludes from the scope of that relief tobacco products transported from certain Member States where the rate of excise duty on such products is lower than the minimum required under EU law.
As the rate of excise duty on cigarettes in the Republic of Slovenia now conforms to the EU minimum requirement, this Order removes the Republic of Slovenia from the scope of the 2004 Order, and so provides that the relief under section 104(2)(a) of the Finance Act 2001 applies to qualifying importations of cigarettes from that Member State.
