Statute overview

About this statute

This provision approves the Croatia Stabilisation and Association Agreement, sets up political and trade cooperation rules, and requires gradual removal of many trade barriers. This provision sets rules for market access, non-discrimination, services, capital movement, real estate rights, transport, competition, state aid, IP protection, and some cooperation duties between the Parties. The Parties must take measures to carry out the Agreement, consult on disputes, and give the Council decision-making powers. The Agreement also gives people from the other Party access to courts and administrative bodies without discrimination. This annex sets staged reductions in duties, ending with abolition of the remaining duties on 1 January 2007. This segment lists tariff product codes and descriptions, including a definition for “baby beef” products and a Croatian tariff concession for certain agricultural products that are duty-free in unlimited quantities.
