Costa Rica restarts export of tubular and polypropylene bags to Dominican Republic

Source: Costa Rican Ministry of Foreign Trade

Costa Rican shipments of polypropylene and fabric tubular bags began arriving once again at the Dominican Republic after the WTO's Dispute Settlement System ordered the latter to lift the safeguard measure that had been imposed on the import of these products from Costa Rica, Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador. The elimination of this measure - which implied a duty of 38% - means that no duty will be levied on these shipments. The Costa Rican Minister of Foreign Trade Anabel González welcomed the development and assured complete adherence to all trade agreements on Costa Rica's part. Prior to 2010, Costa Rica had been one of the primary exporters of these bags. After the imposition of the safeguard measures, it approached the WTO along with the other Central American countries in October 2010, in order to resolve the issue. The discussions that followed with the Dominican Republic failed to settle the dispute. However, in November 2011, the Arbitration Panel released a final report that ruled that these measures were a violation. They were consequently lifted by the Dominican Republic. Following this turn of events and the resumption of exports, Costa Rica is now poised to recover its earlier magnitude of shipments and regain its status as a leading exporter of polypropylene and fabric tubular bags to the Dominican Republic.

EU Council reinforces sanctions against military junta in Guinea-Bissau

Cyprus to comply with the European Commission

Source: EU Commission - DG Trade

On May 31 2012, the EU Council strengthened sanctions against individuals threatening peace, security and stability in Guinea-Bissau. Fifteen persons have been added to the list of people banned from entering the European Union and have also been subjected to an asset freeze within the EU. High Representative of EU, Catherine Ashton stated that these EU measures had been imposed on members of the military junta since they were posing a threat to the security and stability in Guinea-Bissau. In addition, the Council decision incorporates provisions of UN Security Council Resolution 2048 (2012) into EU law. 5 members of the military junta, who are already listed under EU's autonomous sanctions regime, have now been subjected to an UN travel ban. Development aid to Guinea-Bissau has been suspended since the mutiny on April 1 2010. The humanitarian aid and direct support to the people of the country have not been affected by these sanctions measures.

On May 31st, the European Commission requested Cyprus to comply with the ruling of the European Court of Justice with regards to the transfer or registration tax of second-hand vehicles which European Member States follow. Currently Cypriot law does not take into account the age, mileage, or the depreciation of the vehicle and is instead based on the type of vehicle, engine capacity and carbon dioxide emissions. In addition, taxpayers are not able to challenge the assessment made by tax authorities regarding registration or transfer tax on the vehicle. This is in contradiction with EU rules. The EU Commission has therefore requested Cyprus to comply with the rules within a period of two months, failing to which, the issue may be referred to the European Court of Justice.
