Article 1(i) shall be replaced by: “(i) “added value” shall be taken to be the ex-works price minus the customs value of each of the materials incorporated which originate in the other countries referred to in Articles 3 and 4 or, where the customs value is not known or cannot be ascertained, the first price verifiably paid for the products in Slovenia or Estonia.“ 2. Articles 3 and 4 shall be replaced by: 1. Without prejudice to the provisions of Article 2 paragraph 1, products shall be considered as originating in Slovenia if such products are obtained there, incorporating materials originating in Slovenia, Estonia, the European Community, Bulgaria, Poland, Hungary, the Czech Republic, the Slovak Republic, Romania, Lithuania, Latvia, Iceland, Norway, Switzerland (including Liechtenstein)(1) or Turkey in accordance with the provisions of the Protocol on rules of origin annexed to the Agreements between Slovenia and each of these countries, provided that the working or processing carried out in Slovenia goes beyond that referred to in Article 7 of this Protocol. It shall not be necessary that such materials have undergone sufficient working or processing. 2. Where the working or processing carried out in Slovenia does not go beyond the operations referred to in Article 7, the product obtained shall be considered as originating in Slovenia only where the value added there is greater than the value of the materials used originating in any one of the other countries referred to in paragraph 1. If this is not so, the product obtained shall be considered as originating in the country which accounts for the highest value of originating materials used in the manufacture in Slovenia. 3. Products, originating in one of the countries referred to in paragraph 1, which do not undergo any working or processing in Slovenia, retain their origin if exported into one of these countries. 4. The cumulation provided for in this Article may only be applied to materials and products which have acquired originating status by an application of rules of origin identical to those given in this Protocol. 1. Without prejudice to the provisions of Article 2 paragraph 2, products shall be considered as originating in Estonia if such products are obtained there, incorporating materials originating in Estonia, Slovenia, the European Community, Bulgaria, Poland, Hungary, the Czech Republic, the Slovak Republic, Romania, Lithuania, Latvia, Iceland, Norway, Switzerland (including Liechtenstein)(2) or Turkey in accordance with the provisions of the Protocol on rules of origin annexed to the Agreements between Estonia and each of these countries, provided that the working or processing carried out in Estonia goes beyond that referred to in Article 7 of this Protocol.

But where, in the list in Annex II, a rule setting a maximum value for all the non-originating materials incorporated is applied in determining the originating status of the end product, the total value of the non-originating materials incorporated in the territory of the party concerned, taken together with the total added value acquired outside Slovenia or Estonia by applying the provisions of this Article, shall not exceed the stated percentage. 5. For the purposes of applying the provisions of paragraphs 3 and 4, “total added value“ shall be taken to mean all costs arising outside Slovenia or Estonia, including the value of the materials incorporated there. 6.

Dr. BORIS FRLEC Minister za zunanje zadeve Ljubljana, 16. novembra 1998 Vaša Ekscelenca, v čast mi je, da Vas lahko obvestim, da glede Sporazuma o prosti trgovini med Republiko Slovenijo in Republiko Estonijo, podpisanega v Talinu dne 26. novembra 1996, še posebej njegovega Protokola 2, Vlada Republike Slovenije predlaga sklenitev Protokola o definiciji pojma “izdelki s poreklom“ in načinih upravnega sodelovanja, s katerim se spreminja Sporazum o prosti trgovini in ki se glasi:

Protokol 2 v zvezi z definicijo pojma “izdelki s poreklom“ in načinih upravnega sodelovanja se spremeni in dopolni v naslednjem: 1. Točka i) 1. člena se nadomesti z: “i) ‘dodana vrednost’ pomeni ceno izdelka franko tovarna, zmanjšano za carinsko vrednost vsakega od vključenih materialov s poreklom iz drugih držav, omenjenih v 3. in 4. členu, ali če carinska vrednost ni znana ali se ne da ugotoviti, prvo ceno, ki se za izdelke preverljivo plačuje v Sloveniji ali Estoniji.“ 2. 3. in 4. člen se nadomestita z naslednjima: 1. Ne glede na določbe prvega odstavka 2. člena izdelki veljajo za izdelke s poreklom iz Slovenije, če so bili tam pridobljeni in vključujejo materiale s poreklom iz Slovenije, Estonije, Evropske skupnosti, Bolgarije, Poljske, Madžarske, Češke republike, Slovaške republike, Romunije, Litve, Latvije, Islandije, Norveške, Švice (vključno z Liechtensteinom)(1) ali Turčije, v skladu z določbami Protokola o pravilih o poreklu, priloženega sporazumom med Slovenijo in vsako od teh držav, pod pogojem, da obdelava ali predelava, opravljena v Sloveniji, presega tisto, omenjeno v 7. členu tega protokola. Ni treba, da bi bili taki materiali zadosti obdelani ali predelani. 2. Če obdelava ali predelava, ki se opravlja v Sloveniji, ne presega postopkov, omenjenih v 7. členu, se šteje, da ima pridobljeni izdelek poreklo iz Slovenije samo, kadar je tam dodana vrednost višja od vrednosti uporabljenih materialov s poreklom iz katere koli od držav, omenjenih v prvem odstavku. Če to ni tako, se pridobljeni izdelek šteje za izdelek s poreklom iz države, ki je prispevala največjo vrednost uporabljenih materialov s poreklom pri proizvodnji v Sloveniji. 3. Izdelki s poreklom iz ene od držav, omenjenih v prvem odstavku, ki niso obdelani ali predelani v Sloveniji, ohranijo svoje poreklo, če se izvozijo v eno od teh držav. 4. V tem členu predvidena kumulacija se lahko uporablja samo za materiale in izdelke, ki so pridobili status blaga s poreklom z uporabo pravil o poreklu, ki so enaka kot pravila v tem protokolu.

1. Ne glede na določbe drugega odstavka 2. člena izdelki veljajo za izdelke s poreklom iz Estonije, če so bili tam pridobljeni in vključujejo materiale s poreklom iz Estonije, Slovenije, Evropske skupnosti, Bolgarije, Poljske, Madžarske, Češke republike, Slovaške republike, Romunije, Litve, Latvije, Islandije, Norveške, Švice (vključno z Liechtensteinom)(2) ali Turčije, v skladu z določbami Protokola o pravilih o poreklu, priloženega sporazumom med Estonijo in vsako od teh držav, pod pogojem, da obdelava ali predelava, opravljena v Estoniji, presega tisto, omenjeno v 7. členu tega protokola. Ni treba, da bi bili taki materiali zadosti obdelani ali predelani. 2. Če obdelava ali predelava, ki se opravlja v Estoniji, ne presega postopkov, omenjenih v 7. členu, se šteje, da ima pridobljeni izdelek poreklo iz Estonije samo, kadar je tam dodana vrednost višja od vrednosti uporabljenih materialov s poreklom iz katere koli od držav, omenjenih v prvem odstavku. Če to ni tako, se pridobljeni izdelek šteje za izdelek s poreklom iz države, ki je prispevala največjo vrednost uporabljenih materialov s poreklom pri proizvodnji v Estoniji. 3. Izdelki s poreklom iz ene od držav, omenjenih v prvem odstavku, ki niso obdelani ali predelani v Estoniji, ohranijo svoje poreklo, če se izvozijo v eno od teh držav. 4.

Razen v primerih iz 3. in 4. člena in tretjega odstavka tega člena morajo biti pogoji za pridobitev statusa blaga s poreklom, določeni v II. oddelku, v Sloveniji ali Estoniji izpolnjeni neprekinjeno. 2. Razen v primerih iz 3. in 4. člena se blago s poreklom, izvoženo iz Slovenije ali Estonije v drugo državo, ko se vrne, šteje za blago brez porekla, razen če se carinskim organom lahko zadovoljivo dokaže: (a) da je blago, ki se vrača, isto blago, kot je bilo izvoženo, in (b) da na njem, medtem ko je bilo v tisti državi ali med izvozom, niso bili opravljeni nikakršni postopki, razen tistih, ki so potrebni, da se ohrani v dobrem stanju. 3. Na pridobitev statusa blaga s poreklom v skladu s pogoji, določenimi v II. oddelku, ne bo vplivala obdelava ali predelava, opravljena zunaj Slovenije ali Estonije na materialih, izvoženih iz Slovenije ali Estonije in nato ponovno uvoženih tja, pod pogojem, da: (a) so omenjeni materiali v celoti pridobljeni v Sloveniji ali Estoniji ali so bili pred izvozom obdelani ali predelani bolj, kot so nezadostni postopki, navedeni v 7. členu, in (b) se carinskim organom zadovoljivo dokaže, da: i) je bilo ponovno uvoženo blago pridobljeno z obdelavo ali predelavo izvoženih materialov in ii) skupna dodana vrednost, pridobljena zunaj Slovenije ali Estonije ob uporabi določb tega člena, ne presega 10 odstotkov cene končnega izdelka franko tovarna, za katerega se ugotavlja status blaga s poreklom. 4. Za namene tretjega odstavka se pogoji za pridobitev statusa blaga s poreklom, določeni v II. oddelku, ne uporabljajo za obdelavo ali predelavo, opravljeno zunaj Slovenije ali Estonije. Kadar pa se v seznamu v Prilogi II za določitev statusa blaga s poreklom za končni izdelek uporablja pravilo, ki določa najvišjo vrednost vseh vključenih materialov brez porekla, skupna vrednost materialov brez porekla, vključenih na ozemlju določene pogodbenice, upoštevana skupaj s skupno dodano vrednostjo, pridobljeno zunaj Slovenije ali Estonije z uporabo določb tega člena, ne sme presegati navedenega odstotka. 5. Za namene uporabe določb tretjega in četrtega odstavka se šteje, da “skupna dodana vrednost“ pomeni vse stroške, nastale zunaj Slovenije ali Estonije, vključno z vrednostjo tam vključenih materialov. 6. Določbe tretjega in četrtega odstavka se ne uporabljajo za izdelke, ki ne izpolnjujejo pogojev, določenih v seznamu Priloge II, in ki se lahko štejejo za zadosti obdelane ali predelane samo ob uporabi splošne tolerance, določene v drugem odstavku 6. člena. 7. Določbe tretjega in četrtega odstavka se ne uporabljajo za izdelke, ki se uvrščajo v 50. do 63. poglavje harmoniziranega sistema. 8. Vsaka obdelava ali predelava, ki je zajeta z določbami tega člena, opravljena zunaj Slovenije ali Estonije, se opravi v skladu s postopki o začasnem izvozu na oplemenitenje ali podobnimi postopki.“ 4. V 13., 14., 15., 17., 21., 27., 30. in 32. členu se besedilo “omenjeno v 4. členu“ nadomesti z “omenjeno v 3. in 4. členu“. 5. V zadnjem pododstavku šestega odstavka 15. člena se datum “31. december 1998“ nadomesti z “31. december 2000“. 6. V 26. členu se sklicevanje na “C2/CP3“ nadomesti s “CN22/CN23“. 7. V Prilogi I, opomba 5.2, se vstavi “prevodni filamenti“ med “umetni filamenti“ in “sintetična rezana vlakna iz polipropilena“. 8. V Prilogi I, opomba 5.2, se peti primer (“Taftana preproga,... pogoj glede teže.“) črta. 9. V Prilogi II se med pravila za tarifni številki 2202 in 2208 HS vstavi naslednje pravilo: 10. V Prilogi II se pravilo za 57. poglavje nadomesti z: 11. V Prilogi II se pravilo za tarifno številko 7006 HS nadomesti z: 12. V Prilogi II se pravilo za tarifno številko 7601 HS nadomesti z: 13.

Če obdelava ali predelava, ki se opravlja v Sloveniji, ne presega postopkov, omenjenih v 7. členu, se šteje, da ima pridobljeni izdelek poreklo iz Slovenije samo, kadar je tam dodana vrednost višja od vrednosti uporabljenih materialov s poreklom iz katere koli od držav, omenjenih v prvem odstavku. Če to ni tako, se pridobljeni izdelek šteje za izdelek s poreklom iz države, ki je prispevala največjo vrednost uporabljenih materialov s poreklom pri proizvodnji v Sloveniji. 3. Izdelki s poreklom iz ene od držav, omenjenih v prvem odstavku, ki niso obdelani ali predelani v Sloveniji, ohranijo svoje poreklo, če se izvozijo v eno od teh držav. 4. V tem členu predvidena kumulacija se lahko uporablja samo za materiale in izdelke, ki so pridobili status blaga s poreklom z uporabo pravil o poreklu, ki so enaka kot pravila v tem protokolu.

Na pridobitev statusa blaga s poreklom v skladu s pogoji, določenimi v II. oddelku, ne bo vplivala obdelava ali predelava, opravljena zunaj Slovenije ali Estonije na materialih, izvoženih iz Slovenije ali Estonije in nato ponovno uvoženih tja, pod pogojem, da: (a) so omenjeni materiali v celoti pridobljeni v Sloveniji ali Estoniji ali so bili pred izvozom obdelani ali predelani bolj, kot so nezadostni postopki, navedeni v 7. členu, in (b) se carinskim organom zadovoljivo dokaže, da: i) je bilo ponovno uvoženo blago pridobljeno z obdelavo ali predelavo izvoženih materialov in ii) skupna dodana vrednost, pridobljena zunaj Slovenije ali Estonije ob uporabi določb tega člena, ne presega 10 odstotkov cene končnega izdelka franko tovarna, za katerega se ugotavlja status blaga s poreklom. 4. Za namene tretjega odstavka se pogoji za pridobitev statusa blaga s poreklom, določeni v II. oddelku, ne uporabljajo za obdelavo ali predelavo, opravljeno zunaj Slovenije ali Estonije. Kadar pa se v seznamu v Prilogi II za določitev statusa blaga s poreklom za končni izdelek uporablja pravilo, ki določa najvišjo vrednost vseh vključenih materialov brez porekla, skupna vrednost materialov brez porekla, vključenih na ozemlju določene pogodbenice, upoštevana skupaj s skupno dodano vrednostjo, pridobljeno zunaj Slovenije ali Estonije z uporabo določb tega člena, ne sme presegati navedenega odstotka. 5. Za namene uporabe določb tretjega in četrtega odstavka se šteje, da “skupna dodana vrednost“ pomeni vse stroške, nastale zunaj Slovenije ali Estonije, vključno z vrednostjo tam vključenih materialov. 6. Določbe tretjega in četrtega odstavka se ne uporabljajo za izdelke, ki ne izpolnjujejo pogojev, določenih v seznamu Priloge II, in ki se lahko štejejo za zadosti obdelane ali predelane samo ob uporabi splošne tolerance, določene v drugem odstavku 6. člena. 7.
