Proposal for a
COUNCIL DECISION
on the signing, on behalf of the European Union, of the Interim Agreement on Trade
between the European Union and the United Mexican States
EN EN
EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM
1. CONTEXT OF THE PROPOSAL
• Reasons for and objectives of the proposal
The attached proposal constitutes the legal instrument for authorising the signature of the
Interim Agreement on Trade between the European Union and the United Mexican States
(hereinafter referred to as ‘the ITA’).
Relations between the European Union (‘EU’) and the United Mexican States ('Mexico') are
currently based on the Economic Partnership, Political Coordination and Cooperation
Agreement between the European Community and its Member States, of the one part, and the
United Mexican States, of the other part (hereinafter referred to as ‘the Global Agreement’),
which entered into force on 1 October 20001. The trade pillar of the Global Agreement was
expanded by two decisions of the Joint Council: Decision No 2/2000 of the EC-Mexico Joint
Council of 23 March 2000 related to trade in goods2 and Decision No 2/2001 of the EU-
Mexico Joint Council of 27 February 2001 on trade in services3.
Since the entry into force of the Global Agreement, the EU and Mexico have deepened their
relations. In 2008, the EU and Mexico established a Strategic Partnership which introduced a
bilateral dialogue and cooperation in new key policy areas, including multilateral issues,
security and justice, macroeconomic aspects, and human rights.
In the Santiago Declaration of 27 January 2013, the Parties expressed their joint commitment
to modernise and replace the existing Global Agreement to reflect new political and economic
realities and the advancements made in their Strategic Partnership.
At the seventh EU-Mexico Summit in Brussels in June 2015, both sides reaffirmed their
willingness to launch the process of starting negotiations, in accordance with the legal
framework of each side, to modernise the Global Agreement and to reinforce the Strategic
Partnership.
On 4 May 2016, the Council of the European Union authorised the European Commission and
the High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy to negotiate a
modernised agreement with Mexico to replace the Global Agreement.
The negotiations were formally launched in May 2016. The negotiations were conducted in
consultation with the Trade Policy Committee. The European Parliament has been kept fully
informed about the outcome of the negotiations.
An agreement was reached on 17 January 2025. Trade negotiations were conducted to unfold
the full potential of the bilateral relationship and help meet current global challenges.
The modernisation of the existing EU-Mexico Global Agreement revolves around two legal
instruments:
1. The Political, Economic and Cooperation Strategic Partnership Agreement (also
known as the ‘Modernised Global Agreement’ and hereinafter referred to as the ‘MGA’),
which will include a) the political and cooperation pillar and b) the trade and investment pillar
(inclusive of investment protection provisions); and

OJ L 70, 12.3.2001, p. 7–50.
EN 1 EN
2. the Interim Agreement on Trade (hereinafter referred to as ‘the ITA’ or ‘the
Agreement’) covering trade and investment liberalisation.
The ITA is intended to be signed at the same time as the MGA. The ITA will enter into force
following the respective notifications of the Parties pursuant to Article 33.9 of the ITA. The
ITA will expire and be replaced by the MGA upon the MGA’s full entry into force, following
its full ratification.
• Consistency with existing policy provisions in the policy area
The ITA provides a modernised comprehensive legal framework for EU-Mexico trade and
investment relations and replaces Titles III to V of the current Global Agreement, including a
set of subsequent decision by its institutional bodies, which are listed in Annex 33 to the ITA.
Over the years, the EU and Mexico have concluded, in addition to the Global Agreement,
several bilateral sectoral agreements, including the Agreement between the European
Community and the United Mexican States on the mutual recognition and protection of
designations for spirit drinks signed in Brussels on 27 May 1997 (the ‘1997 Spirits
Agreement’)4.
The 1997 Spirits Agreement is incorporated into the ITA. The other sectoral agreements not
falling within the scope of the ITA will remain in place as separate agreements.
The ITA is fully in line with the overall EU vision for its partnership with Latin America and
the Caribbean, as outlined in the Joint Communication to the European Parliament and the
Council on a New Agenda for Relations between the EU and Latin America and the
Caribbean, adopted on 7 June 2023.
In addition, the ITA is fully in line with the ‘Trade Policy Review - An Open, Sustainable and
Assertive Trade Policy’ of February 2021 which anchors trade and investment policy to
European and universal standards and values, alongside core economic interests, putting a
greater emphasis on sustainable development, human rights, tax evasion, consumer
protection, and responsible and fair trade.
• Consistency with other Union policies
The ITA is fully consistent with European Union policies and will not require the EU to
amend its rules, regulations or standards in any regulated area, e.g. technical rules and product
standards, sanitary or phytosanitary rules, regulations on food and safety, health and safety
standards, rules on GMOs, environmental protection or consumer protection.
The ITA also includes a Chapter on Trade and Sustainable Development, which links the
Agreement to the EU’s overall objectives of sustainable development and specific objectives
in the areas of labour, environment, and climate change.
Furthermore, the ITA fully safeguards public services and ensures that governments’ right to
regulate in the public interest is fully preserved by the Agreement and constitutes a basic
underlying principle thereof.

EN 2 EN
2. LEGAL BASIS, SUBSIDIARITY AND PROPORTIONALITY
• Legal basis
In accordance with Opinion 2/15 on the EU-Singapore FTA of the Court of Justice of 16 May
2017, all the areas covered by the ITA fall within the exclusive competence of the EU and in
particular, within the scope of Articles 91, 100(2) and 207 TFEU.
As a result, the ITA is to be signed by the Union pursuant to a decision of the Council based
on Article 218(5) TFEU.
• Subsidiarity (for non-exclusive competence)
The ITA as presented to the Council does not cover any matters that fall outside the EU’s
exclusive competence.
• Proportionality
Trade agreements are the appropriate means to govern market access and the related areas of
comprehensive economic relations with a third country outside the EU. No alternative means
exist to render such commitments and liberalisation efforts legally binding.
This initiative directly pursues the objectives of the Union's external action and contributes to
the political priority of 'EU as a stronger global actor’. It is in line with the EU Global
Strategy’s orientations to engage with other countries and to revamp the EU’s external
partnerships in a responsible way, in order to attain the EU's external priorities. It contributes
to the EU’s trade and development objectives.
Negotiations for the ITA with Mexico were carried out in accordance with the negotiating
directives set out by the Council. The outcome of the negotiations does not go beyond what is
necessary to achieve the policy objectives set out in the negotiating directives.
• Choice of the instrument
This proposal for a Council decision is submitted in accordance with paragraph 5 of Article
218 TFEU, which provides for the adoption by the Council of a decision authorising the
signing of international agreements. There is no other legal instrument that could be used to
achieve the objective expressed in this proposal.
3. RESULTS OF EX-POST EVALUATIONS, STAKEHOLDER
CONSULTATIONS AND IMPACT ASSESSMENTS
• Ex-post evaluations/fitness checks of existing legislation
An assessment of six EU Free-Trade Agreements (including Mexico’s) commissioned by the
Commission was carried out in February 2011. An ex-post evaluation of the trade pillar of the
existing Global Agreement and an ex-ante assessment looking at options for modernisation
were completed in 2016.
The analysis of the Global Agreement demonstrated that, while the coverage of the existing
trade pillar was comprehensive at the time, there was scope for further improvements to the
rules and for achieving further market access. It also concluded that it was necessary to update
the Global Agreement to take account of the developments in the global trade landscape.
EN 3 EN
• Stakeholder consultations
The contractor for the external studies undertaken in support of the modernisation organised
numerous consultation and outreach activities, including: (i) a dedicated website for
documents and activities linked to the studies; (ii) an online survey of stakeholders, launched
in October 2014; (iii) a local stakeholder workshop in Mexico, held in July 2015; and (iv)
personal interviews.
As part of the Impact Assessment, DG Trade consulted interested stakeholders about the
modernisation, including businesses, civil society stakeholders, non-governmental
organisations, trade unions, trade associations, chambers of commerce and other private
interests. These stakeholder consultations involved a number of different consultation
activities including an open public online consultation (launched in July 2015).
The external studies, the Impact Assessment and the consultations held in the context of its
preparation, provided the Commission with input that has been of great value in the ITA
negotiations.
During the negotiations, meetings were held to debrief civil society organisations on the status
of the negotiations and to exchange views on the modernisation (meetings in April and
November 2017 in Brussels and in July 2017 in Mexico City).
Negotiations of the ITA were carried out in consultation with the Trade Policy Committee, as
the special committee designated by the Council in accordance with Article 218(4) TFEU.
The European Parliament and the European Economic and Social committee were also
regularly informed through the Committee on International Trade (INTA), notably its
Monitoring Group on Mexico. The texts progressively resulting from the negotiations were
circulated throughout the process to both institutions.
• Collection and use of expertise
The ‘ex-post evaluation of the implementation of the EU-Mexico Free Trade Agreement’ was
carried out by the external contractor ‘Ecorys’.
A ‘Sustainability Impact Assessment (SIA) in support of the negotiations for the
modernisation of the trade pillar of the Global Agreement with Mexico’ was carried out by the
external contractor ‘LSE Enterprise’.
• Impact assessment
The proposal was supported by an Impact Assessment published in January 2016 5 which
received a positive opinion6.
The Impact Assessment concluded that a comprehensive negotiation would deliver positive
benefits for both the EU and Mexico. Such benefits included increases in GDP, welfare and
exports, employment, wages (for both less skilled and more skilled employees),
competitiveness and an improved position for both the EU and Mexico in respect of other
global competitors. The inclusion of provisions on sustainable development would also have a
positive impact on the promotion and respect of human rights, on the effective
implementation of International Labour Organisation (ILO) core labour standards and on the
progress towards ratification of the fundamental ILO Convention on the right to organise and
collective bargaining not yet ratified by Mexico.

EN 4 EN
Furthermore, the SIA carried out during the negotiations provides a comprehensive
assessment of the potential economic, social and environmental impacts of increased trade
liberalisation under the ITA in the EU and Mexico. The SIA also analyses the potential
impacts of the modernisation on human rights and on the manufacturing, agriculture and
services sectors. The terms of reference, interim report and final report are available on the
DG TRADE website:
http://ec.europa.eu/trade/policy/policy-making/analysis/policy-evaluation/sustainability-
impact-assessments/index_en.htm
The EU and Mexico have reached an ambitious agreement in line with the most recent trade
agreements such as those concluded by the EU with Canada, Japan, New Zealand and Chile.
The Agreement will open new opportunities for trade and investment in both markets and
support jobs in the EU.
The ITA will inter alia remove most customs duties, extend access to public contracts, open
up the services’ market, offer predictable conditions for investors and help prevent illegal
copying of EU innovations and traditional products. The ITA also contains all the guarantees
to ensure that the economic gains do not come at the expense of fundamental rights, social
standards, governments' right to regulate, environmental protection or consumers' health and
safety.
• Regulatory fitness and simplification
The ITA is not subject to REFIT procedures. It nevertheless contains a framework for
simplified trade and investment procedures, and reduced export and investment related costs
and will therefore increase trade and investment opportunities for small and medium-sized
enterprises (SMEs). Among the expected benefits are increased transparency, less
burdensome technical rules, compliance requirements, customs procedures and rules of origin,
enhanced protection of intellectual property rights and geographical indications, better access
to procurement tender procedures, as well as a special chapter to enable SMEs to maximise
the benefits from the Agreement.
• Fundamental rights
The proposal does not affect the protection of fundamental rights in the Union.
4. BUDGETARY IMPLICATIONS
The ITA would have very limited effects on national budgets and the EU budget, notably
through the loss of own resources in the form of foregone customs duties, as most of the
customs duties are already eliminated under the current Global Agreement. The loss from
tariff revenue could be around EUR 18.75 million based on current trade flows. Indirect
positive impacts are expected in terms of increases in resources linked to value added tax and
gross national income.
5. OTHER ELEMENTS
• Implementation plans and monitoring, evaluation and reporting arrangements
The ITA includes institutional provisions that set up bodies tasked with monitoring its
implementation, operation and impact.
EN 5 EN
The institutional provisions of the ITA establish the specific functions and tasks of the Trade
Council and Trade Committee which will monitor the implementation and application of the
ITA.
The Trade Committee will assist the Trade Council in the performance of its function and
supervise the work of all Sub-Committees and other bodies established under the ITA. The
Trade Committee will be comprised of representatives of the EU and Mexico with
responsibility for trade-related matters who will meet on dates to be mutually agreed.
• Explanatory documents (for directives)
Not applicable.
• Detailed explanation of the specific provisions of the proposal
The ITA broadens the scope of the current bilateral framework and adjusts it to the new
global political and economic challenges, to the new reality of the EU-Mexico partnership and
to the level of ambition of recently concluded trade agreements and negotiations conducted by
the EU and Mexico.
The ITA creates a coherent, comprehensive, up-to-date and legally binding framework for the
EU's trade relations with Mexico. It will foster trade and investment by contributing to the
expansion and diversification of economic and trade relations.
For the first time, the ITA includes a civil society consultation mechanism extended to the
whole Agreement to allow civil society on both sides to make its voice heard on all the
provisions in the Agreement.
The ITA includes a review clause to allow certain specific elements of the agreement to be
discussed again three years after its entry into force.
In line with the objectives set by the negotiating directives, the ITA will seek to fulfil the aims
listed below:
Provide important market access for agricultural and fisheries exports and improved
rules
Under the current Global Agreement, all industrial goods and a considerable amount of
agricultural and fisheries products had already been liberalised. With the modernisation, the
chapter on Trade in Goods fully liberalised more than 98.7% of all tariff lines and removes
95% of the remaining Mexican tariffs on agricultural products.
The text on Trade in Goods contains additional and more extensive rules that will facilitate
trade between the EU and Mexico. This includes provisions on fees and formalities, import
and export licensing, prohibition of export duties, and binding of tariffs for which full duty
elimination is not envisaged (standstill). It also contains new-generation provisions on export
competition, remanufacturing, goods entered after repair and provisions to facilitate the
temporary admission of goods.
Simplify Rules of Origin
The Rules of Origin (RoO) have been reviewed and, in some cases, simplified to take into
consideration the need of industry, for example, for key industrial products such as cars and
pharmaceuticals.
Modernise and simplify border procedures
EN 6 EN
The ITA contains an ambitious Chapter on Customs and Trade Facilitation based on the
provisions of the WTO Agreement on Trade Facilitation (TFA) and goes even further in
certain areas. The EU and Mexico undertake to apply simplified, modern and where possible
automated procedures for the efficient and expedited release of goods through streamlined
requirements on data and documentation, pre-arrival processing of customs documentation
and information, and effective and non-discriminatory risk management.
Ensure fair trade and business conditions
In order to be able to deal efficiently and effectively with unfair trading practices, improved
disciplines regarding trade remedies have been agreed. In addition, the ITA contains
provisions to protect domestic industries in the event that increased imports of a product
arising from the Agreement are causing, or risk causing, serious injury to that industry. The
ITA also contains a subsidy chapter which helps to level the playing field between EU and
Mexican companies through (i) increased transparency for subsidies to both goods and
services, (ii) consultations in case subsidies risk having a negative effect on trade, and (iii)
rules on the most harmful subsidies (restructuring aid without restructuring plan and unlimited
guarantees).
The ITA also ensures that companies respect the basic competition principles: no abuse of a
dominant position, no agreements between companies that restrict competition, and scrutiny
of the competitive effects of a merger. At the same time, the ITA will ensure a level playing
field between public and private companies on the market. State-owned enterprises,
enterprises granted special rights or privileges, and designated monopolies must act in a non-
discriminatory manner and in line with commercial considerations when buying and selling
goods and services on the market.
Enhance trade and investment in Critical Raw Materials
The ITA maintains tariff-free trade of critical raw materials, securing cheaper access and
reduced costs for these materials essential for the EU’s green and digital transitions.
Moreover, the new agreement will prohibit export monopolies and unjustified government
intervention in the price setting of raw materials and will ban export or dual pricing where
export prices are set above domestic prices. There are also specific provisions laid down for
cooperation with Mexico in the raw materials value-chains.
Ensure sustainability and gender equality
The ITA contains an ambitious and comprehensive chapter on Trade and Sustainable
Development, to better integrate sustainable development into the Parties’ trade and
investment relationship through legally binding commitments on environmental protection,
climate change and labour rights, provisions on cooperation and dialogue including with civil
society, as well as dispute settlement procedures. This chapter also includes a review clause
which requires the Parties to discuss possible further improvements of the sustainability
provisions, including the provision of countermeasures in case of breaches and the possibility
to consider the inclusion of the Paris Agreement as an essential element of the agreement. The
review will be launched upon entry into force of the agreement and should be concluded
within 12 months.
The Parties have also agreed on a Joint Declaration on trade and gender equality which
includes provisions on the effective implementation of the international obligations
addressing gender equality and women’s rights, and to strengthen cooperation on trade-related
aspects of gender equality policies and measures. The Joint Declaration forms an integral part
of the Agreement.
Focus on the needs of smaller businesses
EN 7 EN
The ITA requires the EU and Mexico to set up a website for SMEs which will make it easier
for them to access information and therefore benefit from all provisions of the Agreement.
Contact points in the EU and Mexico will work together to take into account the specific
needs of SMEs and identify ways they can take advantage of new opportunities in each
market.
Provide opportunities for service suppliers and rules for digital trade
The ITA contains comprehensive disciplines covering market access for services and
investment in all sectors of the economy, and specific disciplines covering digital trade. It
aims to create a level playing field especially for EU service suppliers involved in sectors
such as telecommunications and financial services, as well as in areas such as delivery
services and maritime services. The ITA also provides a framework for the Parties to
recognise each other's qualifications in regulated professions such as architects, accountants,
lawyers and engineers in the future. In digital trade, the Agreement establishes disciplines that
apply horizontally (to online trade in goods, services, etc.) and that are indispensable for the
proper functioning of trade online.
Encourage investment
The ITA contains provisions liberalising investment, following the same approach as that set
out in the most ambitious EU trade agreements concluded so far. In particular, all substantive
disciplines under the investment chapter will apply to both services and non-services sectors.
In particular, investors and their investments will be able to benefit from the commitment to
provide non-discriminatory treatment in comparison to domestic or third country investors
and investments, as well as from the ambitious disciplines for market access (addressing
quantitative restrictions such as monopolies and exclusive rights, quotas, and economic needs
tests), as well as prohibition of certain performance requirements. On the energy sector, the
ITA ensures that the Most Favoured Nation principle will be applied both in case of past and
future FTAs that Mexico has entered or will enter into. The agreement therefore ensures that
EU investors will be treated on a par with investors from Mexico’s other preferential trading
partners.
Provide access to Mexican public tenders
The ITA provides for more opportunities for bidders for public procurement contracts.
Mexico has opened up its government tenders to EU companies to a greater extent than to any
of its other trading partners. EU companies will be able to bid to provide goods and services
not only at federal level but also to the most economically important Mexican states, being the
first non-Mexican companies to be able to do so. The EU and Mexico also undertake to
subject their public procurement procedures to a modern set of rules, applying high standards
of transparency, non-discrimination and equal treatment.
Set better protection for innovation and creative works
The ITA creates a level playing field by ensuring that Mexico and the EU also follow a
common approach on enforcing Intellectual Property Rights (IPRs) and by ensuring that both
sides will take action to fight against counterfeiting, piracy and uncompetitive practices. It
ensures a high level of protection and enforcement of IPRs. It also includes the reciprocal
protection of a selected list of Geographical Indications (GIs) of the EU and Mexico. In the
case of the EU, 336 EU GIs will be protected. This is in addition to the EU spirits GIs already
protected under the 1997 EU- Mexico Spirit Agreement, which is incorporated and made part
of the ITA and will enjoy the same level of protection.
Ensure that safe agri-food products are traded without any unnecessary SPS constraints
EN 8 EN
The ITA include a comprehensive Chapter on Sanitary and Phytosanitary matters (SPS)
providing many specific trade facilitation measures (including the elimination of pre-
clearance). This should enable faster yet safe trade. Both the EU and Mexico keep their right
to set the level of protection they consider appropriate.
Ensure that technical regulations, standards, and conformity assessment procedures are
non-discriminatory and do not create unnecessary obstacles to trade
The ITA reiterates the commitment of the EU and Mexico to base their technical regulations
on international standards and to agree on an open list of international standards setting
organisations. On conformity assessment, the ITA recognises the different approaches of the
Parties to conformity assessment and their relevant trade facilitation measures: for the EU the
use the supplier’s declaration of conformity and for Mexico the recognition of product
certification carried out in the EU.
Ensure transparency and good regulatory practices
The ITA includes a Chapter on Transparency with ambitious provisions on the publication,
administration, and review and appeal of measures of general application related to trade
matters and a chapter that lays down a set of good regulatory practices that EU and Mexico
will use when developing regulations.
Implement modern procedures on dispute settlement
The ITA includes a Chapter on State-to-State Dispute Settlement that lays down effective and
transparent modern procedures grounded in due process to prevent and solve any disputes
between Mexico and the EU.

Cooperation pillar and a Trade and Investment pillar (inclusive of investment
protection provisions). The second instrument is the Interim Agreement on Trade
between the European Union and the United Mexican States (hereinafter ‘the
Agreement’) which covers trade and investment liberalisation. The Agreement will
cease to have effect and will be replaced by the Modernised Global Agreement upon
entry into force of the latter.
(4) The objective of the Agreement is to foster increased and sustainable trade and
investment between the Parties by expanding and diversifying their economic and
trade relations and by creating new opportunities for workers and businesses alike, in
particular small businesses, while contributing to the promotion of sustainable
development in its social and environmental dimensions.

that imports of an originating good of the other Party have increased as a result of the reduction or
elimination of a customs duty under this Agreement, and that such imports cause or threaten to

Procedural Rules Applicable to Bilateral Safeguard Measures
ARTICLE 5.16
Applicable Law
For the application of bilateral safeguard measures, the competent investigating authority shall

the rules established under the law of the Party concerned, as long as those rules are in conformity
with the provisions of Section C.

ARTICLE 5.17
Initiation of a Safeguard Procedure
1. A competent investigating authority may initiate a safeguard procedure upon a written
application made by or on behalf of the domestic industry, or in exceptional circumstances, on its
own initiative. In the case of the European Union that application can be filed by one or more
Member States of the European Union on behalf of the domestic industry. The application shall be
deemed to have been made by or on behalf of the domestic industry if it is supported by those
domestic producers whose collective output constitutes more than 50 % of the total production of
the like or directly competitive products produced by that portion of the domestic industry
expressing either support for or opposition to the application. However, no investigation shall be
initiated when domestic producers expressly supporting the application account for less than 25 %
of total national production of the like or directly competitive products produced by the domestic
industry.
2. Once the investigation has been initiated, the application referred to in paragraph 1 shall
promptly be made available to whom it may concern, except for the confidential information
contained therein.
& /en 125
3. Upon initiation of a safeguard procedure, the competent investigating authority shall publish a
notice of initiation of the procedure in the official journal of the Party. The notice shall identify the
entity which filed the written application, if applicable, the imported good concerned, its heading,
subheading or the tariff item number under which it is classified under the Harmonized System, the
nature and timing of the determination to be made, the period within which interested parties may
make their views known in writing and submit information, the place at which the written
application and any other non-confidential documents filed in the course of the procedure may be
inspected and the name, address and telephone number of the office to be contacted for more
information. In case the competent investigating authority decides to hold a public hearing, the time
and place of that public hearing may be either included in the notice of initiation or notified at any
subsequent stage of the procedure, provided that such notice is given well in advance. In case no
public hearing is scheduled at the beginning of the investigation, the notice of initiation shall
include the period within which interested parties may apply to be heard orally by the competent
investigating authority.
4. With respect to a safeguard procedure initiated on the basis of a written application filed by an
entity asserting that it is representative of the domestic industry, the competent investigating
authority shall not publish the notice of initiation pursuant to paragraph 3 without first assessing
carefully that the application meets the requirements of its law and the requirements of paragraph 1,
and includes reasonable evidence that imports of an originating good of the other Party have
increased as the result of the reduction or elimination of a customs duty under this Agreement, and
that such imports cause or threaten to cause the alleged serious injury or the alleged serious
deterioration in the economic situation.
& /en 126
ARTICLE 5.18
Investigation
1. A Party may apply a safeguard measure only following an investigation by the competent
investigating authority of that Party pursuant to the procedures established in this Sub-Section. This
investigation shall include reasonable public notice to all interested parties, and public hearings or
other appropriate means in which importers, exporters and other interested parties can present
evidence and their views, including the opportunity to respond to the presentations of other parties.
2. Each Party shall ensure that its competent investigating authority completes any such
investigation within one year following its date of initiation.
ARTICLE 5.19
Determination of Serious Injury or Threat Thereof and Causal Link
1. In the investigation to determine whether increased imports cause or threaten to cause serious
injury to a domestic industry, the competent investigating authority shall evaluate all relevant
factors of an objective and quantifiable nature having a bearing on the situation of the domestic
industry, in particular the rate and amount of the increase in imports of the product concerned in
absolute terms and relative to domestic production, the share of the domestic market taken by the
increased imports, and changes in the level of sales, production, productivity, capacity utilisation,
profits and losses, and employment.
& /en 127
2. The determination that increased imports cause or threaten to cause the situations described in
Articles 5.10 or 5.15, shall not be made unless the investigation demonstrates, based on objective
evidence, the existence of a clear causal link between the increased imports of the product
concerned and the situations described in Articles 5.10 or 5.15. If factors other than the increased
imports are, at the same time, causing the situations described in Articles 5.10 or 5.15, such injury
or threat thereof, or serious deterioration in the economic situation or threat thereof, shall not be
attributed to the increased imports.
ARTICLE 5.20
Hearings
In the course of each safeguard procedure, the competent investigating authority shall:
(a) hold a public hearing, after providing reasonable notice, to allow all interested parties
considered as such under the law of the Party concerned, to appear in person or through
counsel, to present evidence and to be heard on the serious injury or threat thereof, or on the
serious deterioration in the economic situation or threat thereof, and the appropriate
remedy; or
& /en 128
(b) alternatively, in the case of the European Union, provide an opportunity to all interested
parties to be heard provided they have made a written application within the period set out in
the notice of initiation showing that they are likely to be affected by the outcome of the
investigation and that there are special reasons for them to be heard orally.
ARTICLE 5.21
Confidential Information
Any information which is by nature confidential or which is provided on a confidential basis shall,
upon good cause being shown, be treated as such by the competent investigating authority. Such
information shall not be disclosed without permission of the party submitting it. Parties providing
confidential information shall be requested to furnish non-confidential summaries thereof or, if
those parties indicate that such information cannot be summarised, the reasons why a summary
cannot be provided. The summaries shall be in sufficient detail to permit a reasonable
understanding of the substance of the submitted confidential information. However, if the
competent investigating authority finds that a request for confidentiality is not warranted and if the
party concerned is either unwilling to make the information public or to authorise its disclosure in
generalised or summary form, it may disregard such information unless it can be demonstrated to its
satisfaction from appropriate sources that the information is correct.
& /en 129
ARTICLE 5.22
Adoption, Notification, Consultation and Publication
1. If a Party considers that one of the situations set out in Articles 5.10 or 5.15 exists, it shall
immediately refer the matter to the Trade Committee for examination. The Trade Committee may
make any recommendation required to remedy the situations that have arisen. If no recommendation
has been made by the Trade Committee aimed at remedying the situations, or no other satisfactory
solution has been reached within 30 days of the matter being referred to the Trade Committee, the
importing Party may adopt the bilateral safeguard measure appropriate to remedy the situations in

showing that the requirements of Article 5.17 are met, as well as a questionnaire detailing the
points on which the interested parties must provide information; and
(b) a precise description of the imported good concerned.

12. If a Party adopts, modifies or repeals a sanitary or phytosanitary measure that is subject to an
equivalence determination by the other Party, the importing Party shall maintain its recognition of
equivalence provided that the measures of the exporting Party concerning the product continue to
achieve the appropriate level of sanitary or phytosanitary protection of the importing Party. On
request of a Party, the Parties shall promptly discuss the determination made by the importing Party.
ARTICLE 6.7
Risk Assessment
1. The Parties recognise the importance of ensuring that their respective sanitary and
phytosanitary measures are based on scientific principles and conform to the relevant international
standards, guidelines and recommendations.
2. If a Party considers that a specific sanitary or phytosanitary measure adopted or maintained by
the other Party is constraining, or has the potential to constrain, its exports and that measure is not
based on a relevant international standard, guideline or recommendation, or a relevant standard,
guideline or recommendation does not exist, that Party may request information from the other
Party. The requested Party shall provide to the requesting Party an explanation of the reasons and
relevant information regarding that measure.
& /en 140
3. If the relevant scientific evidence is insufficient, a Party may provisionally adopt a sanitary or
phytosanitary measure on the basis of available pertinent information including from the relevant
international organisations. In such circumstances, that Party shall seek to obtain the additional
information necessary for a more objective risk assessment and review the sanitary or phytosanitary
measure accordingly within a reasonable period of time.
4. Recognising the rights and obligations of the Parties pursuant to the relevant provisions of the
SPS Agreement, nothing in this Chapter shall be construed as preventing a Party from:
(a) establishing the level of sanitary or phytosanitary protection it determines to be appropriate in
accordance with Article 5 of the SPS Agreement;
(b) establishing or maintaining an approval procedure that requires a risk assessment to be
conducted before that Party grants a product access to its market; or
(c) adopting or maintaining sanitary or phytosanitary precautionary measures in accordance with
paragraph 7 of Article 5 of the SPS Agreement.
5. Each Party shall ensure that its sanitary and phytosanitary measures do not arbitrarily or
unjustifiably discriminate between the Parties where identical or similar conditions prevail. A Party
shall not apply sanitary and phytosanitary measures in a manner that would constitute a disguised
restriction to trade between the Parties.
& /en 141
6. A Party conducting a risk assessment shall:
(a) take into account relevant guidance of the WTO SPS Committee and international standards,
guidelines and recommendations;
(b) consider risk management options that are no more trade restrictive than required to achieve
the level of sanitary or phytosanitary protection it has determined to be appropriate in
accordance with paragraph 3 of Article 5 of the SPS Agreement, taking into account technical
and economic feasibility, and
(c) take into account the objective of minimising negative effects on trade when determining the
appropriate level of sanitary or phytosanitary protection in accordance with paragraph 4 of
Article 5 of the SPS Agreement, and select a risk management option that is no more trade
restrictive than required to achieve the sanitary or phytosanitary objective, taking into account
technical and economic feasibility.
7. On request of the exporting Party, the importing Party shall inform the exporting Party of the
progress made with regard to a specific risk assessment concerning a market access request of the
exporting Party, and of any delay that may occur during the process.
& /en 142
8. Without prejudice to Article 6.16, a Party shall not stop the importation of a product of the
other Party solely for the reason that the Party is undertaking a review of its sanitary or
phytosanitary measures, if the importing Party permitted the importation of that product of the other
Party at the time the review was initiated.
ARTICLE 6.8
Adaptation to Regional Conditions, Including Pest- or Disease-Free Areas
and Areas of Low Pest or Disease Prevalence
General
1. The Parties recognise that the adaptation of sanitary and phytosanitary measures to regional
pest or disease conditions is an important means to protect animal and plant life or health, and to
facilitate trade.
2. The Parties shall recognise the concepts of pest- or disease- free areas and areas of low pest or
disease prevalence. The determination of such areas shall be based on factors such as geography,
ecosystems, epidemiological surveillance, and the effectiveness of sanitary or phytosanitary
controls.
& /en 143
3. The exporting Party claiming that areas within its territory are pest- or disease-free areas or
areas of low pest or disease prevalence shall provide the necessary evidence thereof in order to
objectively demonstrate to the importing Party that such areas are, and are likely to remain, pest- or
disease-free areas or areas of low pest or disease prevalence, respectively. For that purpose, the
exporting Party shall, on request of the importing Party, provide reasonable access for inspection,
testing and other relevant procedures.
4. When determining the areas referred to in paragraph 2 by regionalisation decisions, the
Parties shall take into account the relevant guidance of the WTO SPS Committee and base their
measures on international standards, guidelines and recommendations, or, in case those do not
achieve the appropriate level of sanitary or phytosanitary protection of the Party, on a risk
assessment appropriate to the circumstances.
5. For the determination of areas referred to in paragraph 2, the importing Party shall take into
account any relevant information of and prior experience with the authorities of the exporting Party.
6. The importing Party may determine that an expedited process can be used to evaluate a
request from the exporting Party for recognition of pest- or disease-free areas or areas of low pest or
disease prevalence.

by the exporting Party unless otherwise agreed between the Parties.
12. The Parties recognise the concept of compartmentalisation and shall cooperate on this matter.
& /en 145
Plants and Plant Products
13. The Parties recognise the concepts of pest free areas, pest free places of production and pest
free production sites, as well as areas of low pest prevalence as means to protect plant life or health,
and to facilitate trade as specified in relevant IPPC International Standards for Phytosanitary
Measures (hereinafter referred to as "ISPM"), which they agree to apply to goods traded between
them.
14. On request of the exporting Party, the importing Party shall, when adopting or maintaining
phytosanitary measures, take into account pest free areas, pest free places of production, pest free
production sites, as well as areas of low pest prevalence established by the exporting Party in
accordance with the relevant international standards, guidelines and recommendations.
15. The exporting Party shall identify pest free areas, pest free places of production, pest free
production sites or areas of low pest prevalence and provide that information to the other Party. On
request, the exporting Party shall provide a full explanation and supporting data in accordance with
the relevant ISPM or otherwise as appropriate.
16. Without prejudice to Article 6.16, the importing Party shall, in principle, base its own
determination of the plant health status of the exporting Party or parts thereof on the information
provided by the exporting Party in accordance with the SPS Agreement and the relevant ISPM.
& /en 146
17. The importing Party shall assess any additional information received from the exporting Party
without undue delay and normally within 90 days after receipt. The importing Party may request an
on-site inspection to the exporting Party and shall carry out any inspection in accordance with the
principles set out in Article 6.11 and within 6 months following receipt of the request for inspection
by the exporting Party unless otherwise agreed between the Parties. When agreeing on a different
period, the Parties shall take into account the biology of the pest and the crop concerned.
ARTICLE 6.9

SPS Committee as well as international standards, guidelines and recommendations.
& /en 147
3. Unless urgent problems of human, animal or plant life or health protection arise or threaten to
arise, or the measure is of a trade-facilitating nature, a Party shall notify a proposed sanitary or
phytosanitary measure which may affect trade between the Parties and normally allow at
least 60 days after the notification for the other Party to provide written comments. If feasible and
appropriate, that Party should allow more than 60 days for comments and shall consider any
reasonable request from the other Party to extend the time period for comments. On request, the
Party shall respond to the written comments of the other Party in an appropriate manner.

Trade Facilitation
Approval Procedures
1. The Parties recognise that each Party has the right to develop and apply approval procedures
to ensure the fulfillment of the appropriate level of sanitary and phytosanitary protection of the
importing Party while minimising negative effects on trade.
2. Each Party shall ensure that all sanitary and phytosanitary approval procedures affecting trade
between the Parties:
(a) are undertaken and completed without undue delay; and
(b) are not conducted in a manner which would constitute an arbitrary or unjustifiable
discrimination against the other Party.
3. Each Party shall endeavour to ensure that products exported to the other Party meet the
appropriate level of sanitary or phytosanitary protection of the importing Party. To that end, the
exporting Party shall establish and carry out appropriate control measures, including risk-based
on-site inspections where appropriate. The importing Party may require that the relevant competent
authority of the exporting Party objectively demonstrates, to the satisfaction of the importing Party,
that its import requirements are fulfilled.
& /en 151
4. If the importing Party requires a product to be approved prior to importation, that Party shall,
on request of the exporting Party, promptly make available information about sanitary and
phytosanitary import procedures. The importing Party shall in particular ensure that:
(a) the standard processing period of each procedure is published or that the anticipated
processing period is communicated on request to the exporting Party;

elements, as far as practicable with the procedure if the exporting Party so requests; and
(e) the competent authority of the importing Party informs the exporting Party, on request, of the
stage of the procedure including an explanation of any delay.
& /en 152
5. If a Party requires for the approval process a risk assessment, that Party shall under normal
circumstances promptly, and normally within one year after the date of receipt of the required
information for the exportation of the product, make that risk assessment available.
6. Each Party shall endeavour to apply reasonable timelines for all steps of its approval
processes and shall promptly start those processes on receipt of an application from the other Party.
7. Each Party shall avoid unnecessary duplication and administrative burdens with respect to:
(a) any documentation, information or action that it requires of the applicant as part of its
approval processes; and
(b) any information the Party evaluates as part of the approval processes.
8. Each Party shall promptly make available any changes to its required approval processes or
related requirements. Except in duly justified circumstances related to its level of protection, each
Party shall provide a transition period between the publication of any changes to its approval
processes or related requirements and their entry into force to allow the other Party to become
familiar with and adapt to such changes. Each Party shall endeavour to accommodate and avoid
lengthening the approval process for applications submitted prior to the publication of the changes.
If the change of the approval processes reduces burdens, the entry into force shall not be
unnecessarily delayed.
& /en 153
9. On request, a Party shall provide, in a timely manner, to the other Party information on the
stage of the approval procedure.
Specific Plant Health related Conditions
10. In accordance with applicable standards agreed under the IPPC, each Party shall maintain
adequate information on its pest status, which may include surveillance, eradication and
containment programmes and their results, in order to support the categorisation of pests and to
justify phytosanitary import measures.

which a phytosanitary concern exists. The list shall contain:
(a) the quarantine pests not present within any part of its territory;
(b) the quarantine pests present but not widely distributed and under official control; and
(c) the regulated non-quarantine pests.
12. Each Party shall limit its import requirements for plants or plant products for which a
phytosanitary concern exists to measures ensuring the absence of regulated pests. Such import
requirements shall be applicable to the entire territory of the exporting Party taking into account the
regional conditions.
& /en 154
13. Consignments of products for which phytosanitary measures exist shall be accepted on the
basis of adequate guarantees provided by the exporting Party without pre-clearance programs. The
importing Party may, based on a system approach, confer the related activities for the trade of
products to the competent authority of the exporting Party.

ARTICLE 6.11
Audits
1. In order to determine the ability of the exporting Party to provide the required assurances and
to comply with the sanitary and phytosanitary measures of the importing Party, the importing Party
shall have the right to audit, subject to the provisions of this Article, the competent authorities and
associated or designated inspection systems of the exporting Party.
2. The importing Party may determine that it is necessary to carry out an audit as one of the tools
to assess the official inspection and certification systems of the exporting Party. Such audit shall
follow a systems-based approach which relies on the examination of a sample of system procedures,
documents or records and, where required, on-site inspections of facilities within the scope of the
audit.
3. Audits shall focus primarily on evaluating the effectiveness of the official inspection and
certification systems as well as the capacity of the exporting Party to comply with the sanitary and
phytosanitary import requirements and related control measures, rather than on evaluating specific
establishments or facilities, in order to determine the ability of the exporting Party's competent
authorities to have and maintain control and deliver the required assurances to the importing
country.
& /en 156
4. In conducting an audit, the importing Party shall take into account relevant guidance of the
WTO SPS Committee and act in conformity with relevant international standards, guidelines, and
recommendations.

inherent risks of the product, the track record of past import checks and other available information,
such as audits and inspections carried-out by the competent authority of the exporting Party.
6. Each Party shall endeavour to reduce the frequency and number of audits. If the importing
Party considers it necessary to carry out an audit as one of the tools to assess the official inspection
and certification systems of the exporting Party, as well as the capacity of the exporting Party to
comply with the sanitary and phytosanitary import requirements and related control measures, the
following shall apply:
(a) for the first export request for a specific product, the importing Party shall carry out an audit
on a representative sample of the other Party; and
(b) for any subsequent export request for the same product, with the aim to shorten the time of the
approval procedure, the importing Party shall carry out an audit to the exporting Party only in
duly justified circumstances. If the importing Party carries out an audit, it shall provide an
explanation to the exporting Party.
& /en 157
7. Prior to the audit, the competent authorities of the importing Party and of the exporting Party
shall discuss and lay down in an audit plan:
(a) the rationale for, and the objectives and scope of the audit;
(b) the criteria or requirements against which the exporting Party will be assessed; and
(c) the itinerary and procedures for conducting the audit.
Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, the importing Party shall provide the exporting Party an
audit plan at least 30 days prior to the audit.
8. The importing Party shall provide information about the results of the audit in writing to the
exporting Party by means of an audit report that sets out findings, conclusions and
recommendations.
9. The importing Party shall provide the draft audit report to the exporting Party, normally
within 30 days of the conclusion of the audit.
10. The importing Party shall provide the exporting Party with the opportunity to comment on the
findings of the audit. The importing Party may take any such comments into account before
drawing conclusions and taking any action. The importing Party shall provide a final report in
writing to the exporting Party normally within two months after the date of receipt of those
comments.
& /en 158
11. The exporting Party shall inform the importing Party of any corrective actions taken on the
basis of the importing Party's findings and conclusions.
12. Each Party shall ensure that procedures are in place to prevent the disclosure of confidential
information obtained during an audit of the competent authorities of the exporting Party, including
procedures to remove any confidential information from a final audit report before that report is
made publicly available.
13. Any measures taken as a result of audits shall be proportionate to the risks identified and shall
not be more trade restrictive than required to achieve the appropriate level of sanitary or
phytosanitary protection of the importing Party. If so requested, consultations regarding the
situation shall be held in accordance with Article 6.19. The Parties shall consider any information
provided through such consultations.
14. Each Party shall bear its own costs associated with the audit.

procedures including the frequency of import checks regarding sanitary and phytosanitary measures
and the factors it considers as determining the risks associated with importations.
4. If an import check reveals that a product does not comply with the relevant import
requirements, the importing Party shall:
(a) base its action on an assessment of the risk involved and ensure that the action is not more
trade-restrictive than necessary to achieve its appropriate level of sanitary or phytosanitary
protection;
(b) inform the importer or its representative of the reasons for the non-compliance, the legal basis
for the action and, as appropriate, on the place of disposal of that consignment; and
(c) provide to the importer or its representative the opportunity to provide additional information
for assisting that Party in taking a decision.
& /en 160
5. If a Party prohibits or restricts the importation of a good of the other Party on the basis of a
negative result of an import check, the importing Party, shall, in accordance with its law, if
requested by the competent authority of the exporting Party or the operator responsible for the
consignment, provide in writing through normal channels the reason for the prohibition or
restriction, the legal basis or authorisation for the action and, as appropriate, information on the
place of disposal of that consignment.21
6. If the rejected consignment is accompanied by a sanitary or phytosanitary certificate, the
importing Party shall inform the competent authority of the exporting Party and provide all
appropriate information, including the legal basis for the action, detailed laboratory results and
methods. The importing Party shall maintain physical and electronic documentation regarding the
identification, collection, sampling, transportation and storage of the test sample and the analytical
methods used on the test sample. The importing Party shall also inform the importer or its
representative on the disposal of that consignment. In the case of pest interceptions, the notification
shall indicate the pest at species level whenever feasible.
7. If the importing Party determines that there is a significant, sustained or recurring pattern of
non-conformity with a sanitary or phytosanitary measure, the importing Party shall notify the
exporting Party of the non-conformity.
21 For greater certainty, nothing in this Article prevents an importing Party from disposing of a
consignment which is found to have an infectious pathogen or pest that can, if urgent action is
not taken, spread and cause damage to human, animal or plant life or health in the territory of
that Party.
& /en 161
8. Notwithstanding paragraph 6, the importing Party shall provide to the exporting Party, on
request, available information on goods from the exporting Party that were found not to be in
conformity to a sanitary or phytosanitary measure of the importing Party.
9. Any fees imposed with respect to any procedure to check and ensure the fulfilment of sanitary
or phytosanitary measures shall not be higher than the actual cost of the service.

Application of SPS Measures
1. Without prejudice to Article 6.8, each Party shall apply its sanitary or phytosanitary measures
to the territory of the other Party.
2. In order to avoid an arbitrary or unjustifiable discrimination, the same import requirements
shall apply to the territory of the exporting Party where identical or similar sanitary or phytosanitary
conditions exist.
& /en 163
3. For the first export request for a specific product, the importing Party shall promptly start the
approval procedure for an application of the other Party or, as the case may be, of one or a group of
Member States of the European Union. The approval procedure shall follow the procedure set out in
Article 6.10 and, in case of an application of a group of Member States where identical or similar
sanitary or phytosanitary conditions exist, shall not take longer than for an application of one
Member State.
4. For a subsequent export request related to the same product, the importing Party shall approve
the application no later than six months after the reception of the request, except in duly justified
cases. Information requests shall be limited to what is necessary and shall take into account
information already available to the importing Party, such as information on the legislative
framework and previous audit reports.

health. Misuse of anti-microbials in animal production, including non-therapeutic use, can
contribute to anti-microbial resistance that may represent a risk to human and animal health. The
Parties recognise that the nature of the threat requires a transnational and "One Health"22 approach.
2. The Parties shall cooperate to reduce the use of anti-microbials in animal production and to
ban their use as growth promotors with the aim of combatting anti-microbial resistance in line with
the "One Health" approach.
22 "One Health" as defined by the World Health Organisation (WHO) is an approach combining
policies in multiple sectors to achieve better public health outcomes.
& /en 173
3. The Parties shall cooperate in and follow existing and future guidelines, standards,
recommendations and actions developed in relevant international organisations, initiatives and
national plans aiming to promote the prudent and responsible use of anti-microbials in animal
husbandry and veterinary practices.
4. The Parties shall promote cooperation in all multilateral fora, in particular in the international
standard setting bodies.
ARTICLE 7.4
Working Group on Animal Welfare and Anti-Microbial Resistance
1. The Parties shall endeavour to exchange information, expertise and experiences in the fields
of animal welfare and combatting anti-microbial resistance with the aim of implementing
Articles 7.2 and 7.3.
2. To that end, the Parties shall establish a working group on animal welfare and anti-microbial
resistance which shall share information with the Sub-Committee on Sanitary and Phytosanitary
Measures, as appropriate. The representatives of the Parties in the working group may jointly decide
to invite experts for specific activities.

ownership and management of all hydrocarbons in the subsoil of their respective territories by the
state or by the relevant public authorities, and their respective sovereign right to regulate with
respect to matters addressed in this Chapter in accordance with their respective law, in the full
exercise of their democratic processes.
2. In the case of Mexico, the European Union, without prejudice to its rights and remedies
available under this Agreement,23 recognizes that:
(a) Mexico reserves its sovereign right to reform its Constitution (Constitución Política de los
Estados Unidos Mexicanos) and its domestic legislation regarding the energy sector, including
hydrocarbons and electricity;
23 For greater certainty, these rights and remedies include those arising from Mexico's
obligations pursuant to the provisions in Chapter 10 (Investment) and the related annexes.
& /en 176
(b) Mexico has the direct, inalienable, and imprescriptible ownership of all hydrocarbons in the

part of this Agreement, mutatis mutandis.
& /en 179
ARTICLE 9.4
International Standards
1. The Parties recognise the important role that international standards, guides and
recommendations can play in supporting greater regulatory alignment, good regulatory practice and
reducing unnecessary technical barriers to trade. To that end, the Parties shall use relevant
international standards as a basis for their technical regulations, except when the Party developing
the technical regulation can demonstrate that such international standards would be ineffective or
inappropriate for the fulfilment of the legitimate objectives pursued.
2. In addition to the obligations set out in Articles 2 and 5 and Annex 3 of the TBT Agreement,
each Party shall consider, among others, the Decisions and Recommendations adopted by the WTO
Committee on Technical Barriers to Trade since 1 January 1995.24
3. Standards developed by international organisations including those listed in Annex 9-A shall
be considered to be relevant international standards, provided that in their development those

4. At the request of either Party the Trade Committee may by decision update the list in
Annex 9-A.
5. With a view to harmonising standards on as wide a basis as possible, each Party shall
encourage the standardisation bodies within its territory, as well as the regional standardisation
bodies of which the Party or the standardisation bodies within its territory are members, to:
(a) participate, within the limits of their resources, in the preparation of international standards by
relevant international standardisation bodies;
(b) use relevant international standards as a basis for the standards they develop, except where
such international standards would be ineffective or inappropriate, for instance because of an
insufficient level of protection or fundamental climatic or geographical factors or fundamental
technological problems;
(c) avoid duplication of, or overlap with, the work of international standardisation bodies;
(d) review national and regional standards not based on relevant international standards at regular
intervals, with a view to increasing their convergence with relevant international standards;
& /en 181
(e) cooperate with the relevant standardisation bodies of the other Party in international
standardisation activities to ensure that international standards, guides and recommendations
that are likely to become a basis for technical regulations and conformity assessment
procedures do not create unnecessary obstacles to international trade; that cooperation may be
undertaken in international standardisation bodies or at regional level;
(f) foster bilateral cooperation with the standardisation bodies within the territory of the other
Party, as well as the regional standardisation bodies of which the other Party or the
standardisation bodies within its territory are members;

incorporation or referencing.
& /en 182
ARTICLE 9.5
Conformity Assessment Procedures
1. The Parties recognise that different mechanisms exist to facilitate the acceptance of the results
of conformity assessment, including:
(a) voluntary agreements between the conformity assessment bodies within the territories of the
Parties;
(b) agreements on the mutual acceptance of the results of conformity assessment procedures with
regard to specific technical regulations, carried out by bodies located within the territory of
the other Party;
(c) use of accreditation procedures to qualify conformity assessment bodies;
(d) government designation or, if applicable, approval of conformity assessment bodies;
(e) recognition by a Party of the results of conformity assessment bodies within the territory of
the other Party; and
(f) acceptance of the supplier's declaration of conformity by the importing Party.
& /en 183
2. Recognising the differences in the conformity assessment procedures in their respective
territories:
(a) the European Union shall, as provided for in its laws and regulations, apply the regime of
supplier's declaration of conformity; and
(b) Mexico shall, as provided for in its laws and regulations, accept as an assurance that a product
conforms to the requirements of Mexico's technical regulations, including technical
regulations enacted after the entry into force of this Agreement, and without additional
requirements, certificates issued by conformity assessment bodies within the territory of the
European Union and that have been accredited by a Mexican accreditation entity and
approved by the competent authority.
In this regard, Mexico shall accord to conformity assessment bodies within the territory of the
European Union treatment no less favourable than that it accords to conformity assessment
bodies within its own territory.
Nothing in this subparagraph shall preclude Mexico from verifying the results of individual
conformity assessment procedures, as long as it does not require that a product is subject to
conformity assessment procedures in the territory of Mexico duplicating the conformity
assessment procedures already conducted in the territory of the European Union, except on a
random or infrequent basis for the purpose of surveillance, audit or in response to information
indicating non-conformity.
& /en 184
3. Notwithstanding paragraph 2, a Party may introduce requirements for mandatory third party
testing or certification for products if compelling reasons related to the protection of human health
and safety justify the introduction of such requirements or certification.
4. Nothing in this Article shall preclude a Party from requesting that a conformity assessment in
relation to specific products is performed by specified governmental bodies of that Party. In such
cases, the Party shall:
(a) limit the conformity assessment fees to the approximate cost of the services rendered and, on
request of an applicant for conformity assessment, explain how the fees imposed are limited
in amount to the approximate cost of the services rendered;
(b) make publicly available the conformity assessment fees; and
(c) on request of the other Party, and in addition to the obligations set out in Articles 5.2.3, 5.2.4
and 5.2.8 of the TBT Agreement, explain:
(i) how the information required is necessary to assess conformity and determine fees;
(ii) how the Party ensures that the confidentiality of the information required is respected in
a manner that ensures the protection of legitimate commercial interests; and
& /en 185
(iii) the procedure to review complaints concerning the operation of the conformity
assessment procedure.
5. Each Party shall publish online, preferably on a single website:
(a) any procedures, criteria and other conditions that it may use as a basis for determining
whether conformity assessment bodies are competent to receive accreditation, approval,
designation or other recognition, if applicable, including recognition granted pursuant to a
mutual recognition agreement; and
(b) a list of the bodies that it has approved, designated or otherwise recognised to perform such
conformity assessment and relevant information on the scope of the approval, designation or
other recognition of each body.
6. A Party may submit a substantiated request to the other Party to enter into negotiations to
conclude a mutual recognition agreement on the mutual acceptance of the results of conformity
assessment procedures for a particular sector. If the other Party refuses to enter into such
negotiations, it shall explain the reasons for its decision.
7. Article 9.7 applies, mutatis mutandis, to conformity assessment procedures.
& /en 186
8. If a Party requires a conformity assessment procedure, it shall:
(a) select conformity assessment procedures proportionate to the risks involved as determined on
the basis of a risk assessment; and
(b) on request, provide information to the other Party on the criteria used for the conformity
assessment procedures for specific products.
9. If a Party requires a third party conformity assessment procedure and it has not reserved this
task to a specified governmental body as referred to in paragraph 4, it shall:
(a) preferably use accreditation to qualify conformity assessment bodies;
(b) make best use of international standards for accreditation and conformity assessment, as well
as international agreements involving the Parties' accreditation bodies, for example, through
the mechanisms of the International Laboratory Accreditation Cooperation (ILAC) and the
International Accreditation Forum (IAF);
(c) join or, as applicable, encourage its conformity assessment bodies to join any functioning
international agreements or arrangements for harmonisation or facilitation of acceptance of
conformity assessment results;
& /en 187
(d) ensure that when more than one conformity assessment body has been designated for a
particular product or set of products, economic operators have a choice amongst them to carry
out the conformity assessment procedure;
(e) ensure that there are no conflicts of interest between accreditation bodies and conformity
assessment bodies; and
(f) allow conformity assessment bodies to rely on testing or inspections carried out by conformity
assessment bodies within the territory of the other Party in relation to the conformity
assessment. Nothing in this subparagraph shall be construed as prohibiting a Party from
requiring those conformity assessment bodies within the territory of the other Party to meet
the same requirements that its own conformity assessment body is required to meet.
ARTICLE 9.6
Transparency
1. In accordance with its respective rules and procedures and without prejudice to Chapter 28
(Good Regulatory Practices), when developing technical regulations and conformity assessment
procedures, which may have a significant effect on trade, each Party shall, except where urgent
problems of safety, health, environmental protection or national security arise or threaten to arise:
(a) allow persons of the other Party to participate in its public consultation process on terms no
less favourable than those accorded to its own persons; and

8. Each Party shall endeavour to publish proposals for new technical regulations and conformity
assessment procedures of sub-central or local governments, as the case may be, that are in
accordance with the technical content of relevant international standards, guides and
recommendations, if any, and that may have a significant effect on trade, in accordance with the
procedures set out in Articles 2.9 or 5.6 of the TBT Agreement.
9. For the purposes of determining whether a proposed technical regulation or conformity
assessment procedure may have a significant effect on trade and must thus be notified in accordance
with the relevant provisions of the TBT Agreement which are incorporated in this Agreement
pursuant to Article 9.3, a Party shall consider, among others, the relevant Decisions and
Recommendations adopted by the WTO Committee on Technical Barriers to Trade
since 1 January 1995, as referred to in Article 9.4.2.

Central Registry of Notifications of proposed technical regulations and conformity assessment
procedures for the other Party to provide written comments, except where urgent problems of
safety, health, environmental protection or national security arise or threaten to arise. A Party shall
consider any reasonable request from the other Party to extend the comment period. A Party that is
able to extend the comment period beyond 60 days, for example to 90 days, is encouraged to do so.
12. Each Party shall endeavour to provide sufficient time between the end of the comment period
and the adoption of the notified technical regulation or conformity assessment procedure, for its
consideration of, and preparation of responses to, the comments received.
13. If a Party receives written comments on its proposed technical regulation or conformity
assessment procedure from the other Party, it shall:
(a) on request of the other Party, discuss the written comments with the participation of its
competent regulatory authority at a time when those comments can be taken into account; and
(b) reply in writing to the comments no later than the date of publication of the technical
regulation or conformity assessment procedure.
14. Each Party shall publish on a website its responses to comments it receives, if possible no
later than the date of publication of the adopted technical regulation or conformity assessment
procedure.
& /en 191
15. Each Party shall notify the final text of a technical regulation or conformity assessment
procedure at the time the text is adopted or published, as an addendum to the original notification of
the proposed measure notified under Articles 2.9, 3.2, 5.6 or 7.2 of the TBT Agreement.
16. No later than the date of publication of a final technical regulation or conformity assessment
procedure that may have a significant effect on trade, each Party shall make publicly available
online:
(a) an explanation of the objectives and of how the final technical regulation or conformity
assessment procedure achieves them; and
(b) the results of the impact assessment provided for in Article 9.7, if carried out, in accordance
with its rules and procedures.

shall, on request of the other Party, identify any substantial deviation from the relevant international
standards and explain the reasons why those standards have been judged inappropriate or
ineffective for the objective pursued, and provide the scientific or technical evidence on which this
assessment is based.
4. In addition to Article 2.3 of the TBT Agreement, each Party shall review technical regulations
with a view to increasing their convergence with relevant international standards. Each Party shall
take into account, among others, any new development in the relevant international standards and
whether the circumstances that have given rise to divergences from any relevant international

reasons of public health or safety or due to a requirement related to a geographical indication
of the exporting Party; and
(f) endeavour to accept non-permanent or detachable labels, or the inclusion of relevant
information for marking or labelling in the accompanying documentation, rather than in labels

ARTICLE 16.9
Interconnection with Major Suppliers
1. Each Party shall ensure that a major supplier of public telecommunications networks and
services in its territory provides interconnection with suppliers of public telecommunications
services of the other Party:
(a) at any technically feasible point in the network of that major supplier;
(b) on non-discriminatory terms and conditions including as regards rates, technical standards,

specifications, that are transparent, reasonable, having regard to economic feasibility, and
sufficiently unbundled so that the suppliers of public telecommunications services do not need
to pay for network components or facilities that they do not require for the service to be
provided; and
57 Nothing in this paragraph shall preclude a Party from requiring that a major supplier provides
interconnection at cost-oriented rates. "Cost-oriented rates" means rates based on cost, which
may include a reasonable profit, and may involve different cost methodologies for different
facilities or services.

providing public telecommunications services, except when this is not necessary to achieve
effective competition on the basis of the facts collected and the assessment of market conditions
conducted by the telecommunications regulatory authority. The essential facilities of a major
supplier may include network elements, leased circuits services and associated facilities.
2. Each Party shall provide its telecommunications regulatory authority with the power to
determine the essential facilities required to be made available in its territory by a major supplier,
and to what extent those essential facilities are to be unbundled. Such determination shall be based,
among others, on the objective of achieving effective competition and the benefit of the long-term
interest of end users.

objectives, including the promotion of competition. Procedures, and conditions and obligations
attached to rights of use, shall be based on objective, transparent, non-discriminatory and
proportionate criteria.

available, but detailed identification of radio spectrum allocated for specific government purposes is
not required.
3. A Party may rely on market-based approaches, such as bidding procedures, to assign radio
spectrum for commercial use.
& /en 295
4. Measures of a Party allocating and assigning radio spectrum and managing frequency are not
per se inconsistent with Articles 10.6 (Market Access) and 11.4 (Market Access). Each Party retains
the right to adopt and maintain spectrum and frequency management measures that may have the
effect of limiting the number of suppliers of telecommunications services, provided those measures

maintain.
& /en 296
2. Each Party shall administer any universal service obligation in a manner that is transparent,
non-discriminatory and neutral with respect to competition. Each Party shall ensure that any
universal service obligation it imposes is not more burdensome than necessary for the kind of
universal service that it has defined. Universal service obligations defined according to these
principles shall not be regarded per se as anticompetitive.

compensation does not exceed the needs directly attributable to the universal services obligation, as
determined through a competitive process or a determination of net costs.
ARTICLE 16.14
Confidentiality of Information
1. Each Party shall ensure that suppliers of public telecommunications networks or services that
acquire information from another supplier of public telecommunications networks or services, in
the process of negotiating arrangements pursuant to Articles 16.5, 16.9 or 16.10 use that
information solely for the purpose for which it was supplied and respect at all times the
confidentiality of that information.
& /en 297
2. Each Party shall ensure the confidentiality of telecommunications and related traffic data
transmitted in the use of public telecommunications networks or services, subject to the requirement

Technological Neutrality
The Parties recognise the benefits of technological neutrality, in particular with regard to allowing
suppliers of public telecommunications services to choose the technologies they desire to use for
supplying their services. A Party may restrict such choice by adopting or maintaining requirements

consumers visiting its territory can access telecommunications services using the device of
their choice.
ARTICLE 16.18

& /en 366
Valuation
5. In estimating the value of a procurement for the purpose of ascertaining whether it is a

valuation method for estimating the value of a procurement with the intention of totally or

& /en 367
6. If an individual requirement for a procurement results in the award of more than one contract

calculation of the estimated maximum total value shall be based on:
(a) the value of recurring contracts of the same type of good or service awarded during the

take into account anticipated changes in the quantity or value of the good or service being
procured over the following 12 months; or

interests relating to the procurement of arms, ammunition or war materials, or to procurement
indispensable for national security or for national defence purposes.

Party.

suppliers.

entities, shall not:
(a) treat a locally established supplier less favourably than another locally established supplier on

offered by that supplier for a particular procurement are goods or services of the other Party.
Use of Electronic Means
4. When conducting covered procurement by electronic means, a procuring entity shall:

engaged in fraudulent or other illegal actions in relation to government procurement in the territory
of that Party. Each Party shall also ensure that they have in place policies and procedures to
eliminate to the extent possible or manage any potential conflict of interest on the part of those
engaged in or having influence over a procurement.
Rules of Origin
7. A Party shall not apply rules of origin to goods imported or services supplied from the other

rules of origin which that Party applies in the normal course of trade to imports or supplies of the
same goods or services.
Denial of Benefits
8. A Party may deny the benefits of this Chapter to a service supplier of the other Party, subject

account when deciding whether such measures should be applied. Any justification for not acting
shall be provided in writing.

(b) the modification covers a procuring entity over which the Party has effectively eliminated its
control or influence in accordance with paragraph 3.

from having received the notification. If a Party submits an objection, it shall explain why it
considers the proposed rectification is not a change provided for in paragraph 5, and describe the
effect of the proposed rectification on the coverage provided for in this Chapter. If no objection is
submitted in writing within 45 days after the date of receipt of the notification, the other Party shall
be deemed to have accepted the proposed rectification.
Consultations and Dispute resolution.
8. If the other Party objects to the proposed modification or rectification, the Parties shall seek to
resolve the issue through consultations. If no agreement is found within 60 days after the date of
receipt of the objection, the Party seeking to modify or rectify Annex 21-A (Covered Procurement
of the European Union) or Annex 21-B (Covered Procurement of Mexico) may refer the matter to
dispute settlement under Chapter 31 (Dispute Settlement). The proposed modification or

control mechanism, which achieves the objective of protection.
4. Notwithstanding the legal protection provided for in paragraph 1, in the absence of voluntary
measures taken by the right holders, each Party may take appropriate measures, as necessary, to
ensure that the adequate legal protection against the circumvention of effective technological
measures provided for in accordance with this Article does not prevent beneficiaries from enjoying
exceptions and limitations provided for in accordance with Article 25.14.

bringing, in the course of trade, goods into the territory of the Party where the trademark is

with the goods or services in respect of which it is registered, and there are no proper reasons for
non-use.
98 For greater certainty, a Party may define cancellation as revocation, expiration or nullity.
99 A Party may require that the use is of genuine character or made in a quantity or manner
corresponding to commercial use. A Party may further decide to disregard the commencement
or resumption of use just before the filing of the cancellation request.
& /en 476

having the holder's consent at least from using and notably making, offering for sale, selling,
putting on the market or importing a product or using articles bearing or embodying the protected
industrial design if such acts are undertaken for commercial purposes, unduly prejudice the normal
exploitation of the industrial design, or are not compatible with fair trade practice.
3. An industrial design applied to or incorporated in a product which constitutes a component
part of a complex product shall only be considered to be new or original:

industrial designs and do not unreasonably prejudice the legitimate interests of the holder of the
protected industrial design, taking account of the legitimate interests of third parties.

2. Industrial design protection shall not extend to designs dictated essentially by technical or
functional considerations. In particular, an industrial design shall not be protected if it consists of
features of appearance of a product which must necessarily be reproduced in their exact form and
dimensions in order to permit the product, in which the industrial design is incorporated or to which
it is applied, to be mechanically connected to, or placed in, around or in contact with another
product so that either product may perform its function.
3. By way of derogation from paragraph 2, an industrial design right may subsist in an industrial
design, which has the purpose of allowing the multiple assembly or connection of mutually
interchangeable products within a modular system.

exception to the rights conferred by a trademark, in certain circumstances a prior trademark may not
entitle its owner to prevent a registered geographical indication from being granted protection or
being used in the Party in which the trademark is applied for, registered or used. The protection of
the registered geographical indication shall not limit in any other way the rights conferred by that
trademark, including the possibility to request renewals or variations of a distinctive sign provided
that the variation does not constitute an act of unfair competition.
2. A Party shall not be required to protect a name as a geographical indication pursuant to

application for protection of the geographical indication in the territory of the Party
concerned.

application for protection referred to in subparagraph 3(d) shall be the date of the signing of this
Agreement.
5. For geographical indications referred to in Article 25.35, the date of submission of the
application for protection shall be the date of the publication of the geographical indication in the

comes from another territory shall not be registered as a geographical indication even if the name is
accurate as far as the actual territory, region or locality of origin of the good is concerned. Without
prejudice to Article 23 of the TRIPS Agreement, the Parties shall jointly decide the practical
conditions under which wholly or partially homonymous geographical indications will be
differentiated from each other, taking into account the need to ensure equitable treatment of the
producers concerned and that consumers are not misled.

common language as the common name for a good in the territory of a Party, or if a geographical
indication is not identical to but contains that term, this Sub-Section shall be without prejudice to
the right of any person to use that term in association with that good in the territory of that Party.
3. In determining whether a term is the term customary in common language as the common

into account how consumers understand that term in its territory. Factors relevant to that consumer
understanding may include:
(a) whether the term is used to refer to the type of good in question, as indicated by competent
sources such as dictionaries, newspapers and relevant websites; and

Supplementary Protection in Case of Delays in Marketing Approval
for Pharmaceutical Products Including Biologic Products108
1. The Parties recognise that pharmaceutical products, including biologic products109, protected
by a patent in their respective territory may be subject to an administrative approval110 procedure
before being put on the market. They recognise that the period that elapses between the filing of the
application for a patent and the approval to place the product on their respective market, as defined
for that purpose by the relevant law of a Party, may shorten the period of effective protection under
the patent.
108 Mexico shall implement the obligations provided for in this Article no later than two years
after the entry into force of this Agreement.
109 Each Party shall determine which products fall under the terms "pharmaceutical products" and
"biologic products" in accordance with its law in place on 21 April 2018.
110 For greater certainty, the term "marketing approval" is equivalent to the term "marketing
authorisation".
& /en 499
2. Each Party shall provide for an adequate and effective mechanism to compensate the patent
owner for the reduction in the effective patent life resulting from unreasonable delays111 in the
granting of the first marketing approval in its respective territory. Such compensation shall take the
form of a supplementary sui generis protection, equal to the time by which the period of two years
referred to in the footnote is exceeded. The maximum term of this supplementary protection shall
not exceed five years.112
3. As an alternative to paragraph 2, a Party may make available an extension, not exceeding five
years113, of the duration of the rights conferred by the patent protection to compensate the patent
owner for the reduction in the effective patent life as a result of the marketing approval procedure.
This extension of the duration shall take effect at the end of the lawful term of the patent for a
period equal to the period which elapsed between the date on which the application for a patent was
filed and the date of the first approval to place the product on the market in that Party, reduced by a
period of five years.
111 For the purposes of this Article, an unreasonable delay includes at least a delay of more than
two years in the first response to the applicant following the date of filing of the application
for marketing approval. Any delays that occur in the granting of a marketing approval due to
periods attributable to the applicant or any period that is out of control of the marketing
approval authority need not be included in the determination of such delay.
112 If a Party complies with this paragraph, that Party is not obliged to comply with the
alternative provided in paragraph 3.
113 This period can be extended for six months in the case of pharmaceutical products if
paediatric studies have been carried out and the results of those studies are reflected in the
product information.
& /en 500
4. In implementing the obligations of this Article, each Party may determine conditions and
limitations, provided that the Party continues to comply with this Article.
5. Each Party shall make best efforts to process applications for marketing approval of
pharmaceutical products in an efficient and timely manner, with a view to avoiding unreasonable or
unnecessary delays. With the objective of avoiding unreasonable delays, a Party may adopt or

& /en 502
2. For the purposes of this Sub-Section, a Party shall at least consider the following conduct to
be contrary to honest commercial practices:
(a) the acquisition of a trade secret without the consent of the trade secret holder, whenever
carried out by unauthorised access to, appropriation of, or copying of any documents, objects,
materials or electronic files, lawfully under the control of the trade secret holder, containing
the trade secret or from which the trade secret can be deduced; or
(b) the use or disclosure of a trade secret without the consent of the trade secret holder, whenever
carried out by a person who acquired the trade secret unlawfully or in breach of a
confidentiality agreement or of any other duty not to disclose the trade secret or to limit its
use.117,118

permitted to use or disclose any trade secret or alleged trade secret which the competent authorities
have, in response to a duly reasoned application by an interested party, identified as confidential
and of which they have become aware as a result of such participation or access.
2. In the proceedings referred to in Article 25.48.1, each Party shall provide that its competent
authorities have the authority at least to take specific measures to preserve the confidentiality of any
trade secret or alleged trade secret produced in the proceedings. Such specific measures may
include, in accordance with the law of each Party, the possibility of restricting access to certain
documents in whole or in part, of restricting access to hearings and their corresponding records or
transcript, and of making available a non-confidential version of judicial decisions in which the

or clinical trials necessary to determine whether the use of those products is safe and effective, the
Party shall protect those data against disclosure to third parties, if the origination of those data
involves considerable effort, except where the disclosure is necessary for an overriding public
interest or unless steps are taken to ensure that the data are protected against unfair commercial use.
119 Mexico shall implement this obligation no later than two years after the entry into force of
this Agreement.
120 For the purposes of this Article, the term "new" implies that the products contain a new
chemical entity that has not been previously approved in the territory of the Party or refers to
a new biologic or biotechnological product that has not been previously approved in the

submitted the data referred to in paragraph 1, to market the product122 on the basis of those data or
the marketing approval granted to the person that submitted those data123, for at least six years from
the date124 of the marketing approval of the new product in the territory of that Party.125
3. There shall be no limitation on either Party to implement abbreviated authorisation procedures
for such products on the basis of bioequivalence and bioavailability studies.
122 For the purposes of this paragraph, a Party may provide that the term "product" refers to the
same or a similar product.
123 For greater certainty, this includes data submitted for authorisations granted to the person that
submitted such information in the territories of the Parties and of third countries.
124 For greater certainty, a Party may limit the period of protection under this paragraph to six
years.

disclosure is necessary for an overriding public interest or unless steps are taken to ensure that the
data are protected against unfair commercial use.
126 Mexico shall implement this obligation no later than two years after the entry into force of
this Agreement.
127 For purposes of this article, the term "marketing approval" is synonymous with "sanitary
approval" under the law of a Party.
128 For purposes of this article, the term "new" implies that the product contains a new chemical
entity that has not been previously approved in the territory of the Party.
129 For greater certainty, this Article applies to cases in which the Party requires the submission
of undisclosed test or other data concerning only the safety of the product, only the efficacy of
the product or both.

also order destruction of materials and implements predominantly used in the creation or
manufacture of those goods.

documents to criminal procedures in accordance with its law. Each Party may limit this
authority to infringements committed on a commercial scale and situations where the
applicant demonstrates the existence of circumstances likely to endanger the recovery of

attributable to the infringement. A Party may comply with this paragraph through a presumption
that those profits correspond to the damages referred to in paragraph 1.

or other obligations exceeds the level equivalent to the nullification or impairment caused by the
violation, it may deliver a written request to the original panel before the expiry of the 15-day
period set out in paragraph 4 to decide on the matter. The panel shall determine the level of benefits
it considers to be equivalent and shall deliver its decision to the Parties within 30 days after the date
of the request. The complaining Party shall not suspend any obligations until the panel has delivered
its decision. The suspension of obligations shall be consistent with this decision.

temporary and shall not be applied after:
(a) the Parties have reached a mutually agreed solution pursuant to Article 31.33;
(b) the Parties have agreed that the measure taken to comply brings the Party complained against
into conformity with the covered provisions; or

complained against into conformity with the covered provisions within 30 days of the date of
receipt of the notification, the complaining Party shall deliver a written request to the original panel
to decide on the matter. The panel shall deliver its decision to the Parties within 60 days after the

Ettepanek:
NÕUKOGU OTSUS
Euroopa Liidu ja Mehhiko Ühendriikide vahelise kaubanduse vahelepingu Euroopa
Liidu nimel allkirjastamise kohta
ET ET
SELETUSKIRI
1. ETTEPANEKU TAUST
• Ettepaneku põhjused ja eesmärgid
Lisatud on ettepanek õigusakti kohta, millega antakse luba allkirjastada Euroopa Liidu ja
Mehhiko Ühendriikide vaheline kaubanduse vaheleping (edaspidi „kaubanduse vaheleping“).
Praegu põhinevad Euroopa Liidu (EL) ja Mehhiko Ühendriikide (edaspidi „Mehhiko“) suhted
ühelt poolt Euroopa Ühenduse ja selle liikmesriikide ning teiselt poolt Mehhiko Ühendriikide
vahelisel majanduspartnerlust, poliitilist kooskõlastamist ja koostööd käsitleval lepingul
(edaspidi „üldleping“), mis jõustus 1. oktoobril 20001. Üldlepingu kaubandussammast
laiendati ühisnõukogu kahe otsusega: EÜ-Mehhiko ühisnõukogu 23. märtsi 2000. aasta
otsusega nr 2/2000 kaubavahetuse kohta2 ning ELi-Mehhiko ühisnõukogu 27. veebruari 2001.
aasta otsusega nr 2/2001 teenuskaubanduse kohta3.
Alates üldlepingu jõustumisest on EL ja Mehhiko oma suhteid süvendanud. Aastal 2008 lõid
EL ja Mehhiko strateegilise partnerluse, millega võeti kasutusele kahepoolne dialoog ja
koostöö uutes olulistes poliitikavaldkondades, sealhulgas mitmepoolsetes küsimustes,
julgeoleku ja õiguse, makromajanduslike aspektide ja inimõiguste alal.
27. jaanuari 2013. aasta Santiago deklaratsioonis väljendasid lepinguosalised oma ühist tahet
ajakohastada kehtivat üldlepingut ja see asendada, et kajastada uut poliitilist ja majanduslikku
tegelikkust ning strateegilises partnerluses tehtud edusamme.
2015. aasta juunis Brüsselis toimunud seitsmendal ELi-Mehhiko tippkohtumisel kinnitasid
pooled taas oma valmisolekut alustada kooskõlas mõlema poole õigusraamistikuga
läbirääkimisi, et ajakohastada üldlepingut ja tugevdada oma strateegilist partnerlust.
4. mail 2016 andis Euroopa Liidu Nõukogu Euroopa Komisjonile ja liidu välisasjade ja
julgeolekupoliitika kõrgele esindajale loa pidada Mehhikoga läbirääkimisi ajakohastatud
lepingu üle, mis asendaks üldlepingu.
Läbirääkimised algasid ametlikult 2016. aasta mais. Läbirääkimiste käigus konsulteeriti
kaubanduspoliitika komiteega. Euroopa Parlamenti hoiti läbirääkimiste tulemustega täielikult
kursis.
Kokkulepe saavutati 17. jaanuaril 2025. Et kasutada ära kahepoolsete suhete kõiki võimalusi
ja aidata lahendada praegusi ülemaailmseid probleeme, peeti kaubandusläbirääkimisi.
Senise ELi-Mehhiko üldlepingu ajakohastamise keskmes on kaks õigusakti:
1. poliitilise, majandusliku ja koostööalase strateegilise partnerluse leping (mida
nimetatakse ka „ajakohastatud üldlepinguks“), mis sisaldab a) poliitilist ja koostöösammast
ning b) kaubanduse ja investeeringute sammast (sealhulgas sätteid investeeringute kaitse
kohta); ning
2. kaubanduse vaheleping (edaspidi „vaheleping“ või „leping“), mis käsitleb kaubanduse
ja investeeringute liberaliseerimist.

EÜT L 70, 12.3.2001, lk 7–50.
ET 1 ET
Kaubanduse vaheleping on kavas allkirjastada samaaegselt ajakohastatud üldlepinguga.
Kaubanduse vaheleping jõustub pärast seda, kui lepinguosalised on lepingu artikli 33.9 alusel
esitanud sellekohased teated. Kaubanduse vaheleping kaotab kehtivuse ja asendatakse
ajakohastatud üldlepinguga, kui viimane on ratifitseeritud ja jõustunud.
• Kooskõla poliitikavaldkonnas praegu kehtivate õigusnormidega
Kaubanduse vaheleping annab ELi-Mehhiko kaubandus- ja investeerimissuhetele tervikliku
ajakohastatud õigusraamistiku ning asendab praeguse üldlepingu III–V jaotise, sealhulgas
selle institutsiooniliste organite poolt hiljem tehtud otsused, mis on loetletud kaubanduse
vahelepingu 33. lisas.
Lisaks üldlepingule on EL ja Mehhiko aastate jooksul sõlminud mitu kahepoolset
valdkondlikku lepingut, sealhulgas 27. mail 1997 Brüsselis allkirjastatud Euroopa Ühenduse
ja Mehhiko Ühendriikide vahelise piiritusjookide nimetuste vastastikuse tunnustamise ja
kaitse lepingu (edaspidi „1997. aasta piiritusjookide leping“)4.
1997. aasta piiritusjookide leping on inkorporeeritud kaubanduse vahelepingusse. Muud
sektoripõhised lepingud, mis ei kuulu kaubanduse vahelepingu kohaldamisalasse, jäävad
kehtima eraldi lepingutena.
Kaubanduse vaheleping on täielikult kooskõlas ELi üldise visiooniga partnerlusest Ladina-
Ameerika ja Kariibi piirkonnaga, mis esitati 7. juunil 2023 vastu võetud ühisteatises Euroopa
Parlamendile ja nõukogule „ELi ning Ladina-Ameerika ja Kariibi piirkonna vaheliste suhete
uus tegevuskava“.
Lisaks on kaubanduse vaheleping täielikult kooskõlas 2021. aasta veebruaris avaldatud
teatisega „Kaubanduspoliitika läbivaatamine – avatud, kestlik ja jõuline kaubanduspoliitika“,
milles kaubandus- ja investeerimispoliitika seotakse Euroopa ja üldiste standardite ja
väärtustega ning peamiste majandushuvidega, pannes suuremat rõhku kestlikule arengule,
inimõigustele, maksudest kõrvalehoidmisele, tarbijakaitsele ning vastutustundlikule ja
õiglasele kaubandusele.
• Kooskõla muude liidu tegevuspõhimõtetega
Kaubanduse vaheleping on täielikult kooskõlas Euroopa Liidu tegevuspõhimõtetega ega nõua
ELi eeskirjade, õigusnormide või standardite (näiteks tehnilised normid ja tootestandardid,
sanitaar- ja fütosanitaarnõuded, toidu- ja toiduohutuseeskirjad, tervisekaitse- ja
ohutusstandardid, eeskirjad GMOde kohta, keskkonnakaitse- või tarbijakaitsenormid)
muutmist üheski reguleeritud valdkonnas.
Samuti sisaldab kaubanduse vaheleping kaubanduse ja kestliku arengu peatükki, mis seob
lepingu ELi kestliku arengu üldeesmärkidega ning tööjõu, keskkonna ja kliimamuutuste
valdkonna erieesmärkidega.
Lisaks kaitseb kaubanduse vaheleping täielikult avalikke teenuseid ja tagab, et valitsuste
õigus kehtestada avalikes huvides õigusnorme säilib täielikult ja moodustab selle
aluspõhimõtte.

2. ÕIGUSLIK ALUS, SUBSIDIAARSUS JA PROPORTSIONAALSUS
• Õiguslik alus
Vastavalt Euroopa Kohtu 16. mai 2017. aasta arvamusele 2/15 ELi-Singapuri
vabakaubanduslepingu kohta kuuluksid kõik kaubanduse vahelepinguga hõlmatud
valdkonnad ELi ainupädevusse ning täpsemalt ELi toimimise lepingu artikli 91, artikli 100
lõike 2 ja artikli 207 kohaldamisalasse.
Sellest tulenevalt peab liit kaubanduse vahelepingu allkirjastama nõukogu otsuse alusel, mis
põhineb ELi toimimise lepingu artikli 218 lõikel 5.
• Subsidiaarsus (ainupädevusse mittekuuluva valdkonna puhul)
Kaubanduse vahelepingus, nagu see on nõukogule esitatud, ei käsitleta küsimusi, mis ei kuulu
ELi ainupädevusse.
• Proportsionaalsus
Kaubanduslepingud on sobiv vahend, millega reguleerida turulepääsu ja sellega seotud
ulatuslikke majandussuhteid ELi-välise kolmanda riigiga. Ei ole ühtki alternatiivset vahendit,
mis võimaldaks selliseid kohustusi ja liberaliseerimispüüdlusi õiguslikult siduvaks muuta.
Käesoleva algatusega taotletakse otseselt liidu välistegevuse valdkonnas seatud eesmärke ja
toetatakse poliitilist prioriteeti „EL kui tugevam tegija rahvusvahelisel tasandil“. See on
kooskõlas ELi üldise strateegia suunaga teha teiste riikidega koostööd ja uuendada
vastutustundlikult oma välispartnerlussuhteid, et saavutada ELi välistegevuses seatud sihid.
See aitab saavutada ELi kaubandus- ja arengueesmärke.
Läbirääkimisi Mehhikoga sõlmitava kaubanduse vahelepingu üle peeti nõukogu antud
läbirääkimisjuhiste kohaselt. Läbirääkimiste tulemused ei lähe kaugemale sellest, mis on
vajalik läbirääkimisjuhistes esitatud poliitiliste eesmärkide saavutamiseks.
• Vahendi valik
Käesolev nõukogu otsuse ettepanek esitatakse ELi toimimise lepingu artikli 218 lõike 5
alusel, milles nähakse ette, et nõukogu võtab vastu otsuse, millega antakse luba
rahvusvahelistele lepingutele alla kirjutada. Käesolevas ettepanekus esitatud eesmärgi
saavutamiseks ei ole võimalik kasutada muud õiguslikku vahendit.
3. JÄRELHINDAMISE, SIDUSRÜHMADEGA KONSULTEERIMISE JA MÕJU
HINDAMISE TULEMUSED
• Praegu kehtivate õigusaktide järelhindamine või toimivuse kontroll
Komisjoni tellimusel toimus 2011. aasta veebruaris kuue ELi vabakaubanduslepingu
(sealhulgas Mehhiko lepingu) hindamine. 2016. aastal viidi lõpule kehtiva üldlepingu
kaubandussamba järelhindamine ja ajakohastamisvõimaluste eelhindamine.
Üldlepingu analüüs näitas, et kuigi praeguse kaubandussamba katvus oli tol ajal kõikehõlmav,
oli võimalik norme veelgi parandada ja saavutada täiendav turulepääs. Samuti jõuti
järeldusele, et üldlepingut on vaja ajakohastada, et võtta arvesse ülemaailmsel
kaubandusmaastikul toimunud arengut.
ET 3 ET
• Konsulteerimine sidusrühmadega
Töövõtja, kes tegi lepingu ajakohastamise toetuseks välisuuringud, korraldas arvukalt
konsultatsioone ja tegi tööd sidusrühmadega, sealhulgas: i) lõi uuringutega seotud
dokumentide ja tegevuste jaoks spetsiaalse veebisaidi; ii) korraldas sidusrühmade
veebiküsitluse, mis käivitati 2014. aasta oktoobris; iii) korraldas 2015. aasta juulis Mehhikos
kohalike sidusrühmade seminari; iv) viis läbi isikuküsitlusi.
Mõjuhinnangu osana pidas kaubanduse peadirektoraat ajakohastamise küsimuses nõu
huvitatud sidusrühmadega, sealhulgas ettevõtete, kodanikuühiskonna sidusrühmade,
valitsusväliste organisatsioonide, ametiühingute, kutseühingute, kaubanduskodade ja teiste
erahuvide esindajatega. Need sidusrühmadega peetud konsultatsioonid hõlmasid
mitmesuguseid konsultatsioonitoiminguid, sealhulgas avalikku veebikonsultatsiooni (algatati
2015. aasta juulis).
Välisuuringud, mõjuhinnang ja selle ettevalmistamise käigus peetud konsultatsioonid andsid
komisjonile sisendit, mis oli kaubanduse vahelepingu üle peetud läbirääkimistel suureks
abiks.
Läbirääkimiste käigus toimusid kohtumised, kus anti kodanikuühiskonna organisatsioonidele
ülevaade läbirääkimiste seisust ja vahetati arvamusi ajakohastamise üle (kohtumised 2017.
aasta aprillis ja novembris Brüsselis ning 2017. aasta juulis Méxicos).
Kaubanduse vahelepingu üle peetud läbirääkimiste käigus konsulteeriti kaubanduspoliitika
komiteega kui erikomiteega, mille nõukogu oli ELi toimimise lepingu artikli 218 lõike 4
kohaselt määranud. Rahvusvahelise kaubanduse komisjoni (INTA), eelkõige selle Mehhiko
järelevalverühma kaudu teavitati korrapäraselt ka Euroopa Parlamenti ning Euroopa
Majandus- ja Sotsiaalkomiteed. Läbirääkimiste tulemusena jooksvalt koostatud teksti levitati
kogu protsessi vältel mõlemas institutsioonis.
• Eksperdiarvamuste kogumine ja kasutamine
ELi-Mehhiko vabakaubanduslepingu rakendamise järelhindamise viis läbi välistöövõtja
„Ecorys“.
Kestlikkusalase mõjuhindamise, millega toetati Mehhiko üldlepingu kaubandussamba
ajakohastamiseks peetavaid läbirääkimisi, viis läbi välistöövõtja „LSE Enterprise“.
• Mõjuhinnang
Ettepanekut toetas mõjuhinnang, mis avaldati jaanuaris 20165 ja mille kohta esitati positiivne
arvamus6.
Mõjuhinnangus jõuti järeldusele, et põhjalikud läbirääkimised tooksid kasu nii ELile kui ka
Mehhikole. Selle kasu hulka kuulub SKP, heaolu ja ekspordi, tööhõive, palkade (nii
madalama kui ka kõrgema kvalifikatsiooniga töötajate puhul) ja konkurentsivõime kasv ning
nii ELi kui ka Mehhiko parem positsioon teiste üleilmsete konkurentidega võrreldes. Kestliku
arengu sätete lisamine avaldaks positiivset mõju inimõiguste edendamisele ja austamisele
ning Rahvusvahelise Tööorganisatsiooni tööõiguse põhireeglite tulemuslikule rakendamisele
ning aitaks liikuda ILO organiseerumisõiguse ja kollektiivse läbirääkimisõiguse
põhikonventsiooni ratifitseerimise poole, kuna Mehhiko pole seda seni ratifitseerinud.

ET 4 ET
Peale selle saadakse läbirääkimiste kestel läbi viidud kestlikkusalase mõjuhindamise
tulemusena põhjalik hinnang võimaliku majandusliku, sotsiaalse ja keskkonnamõju kohta,
mida kaubanduse vahelepingu alusel toimuv kaubanduse suurem liberaliseerimine avaldaks
ELis ja Mehhikos. Kestlikkusalasel mõjuhindamisel analüüsitakse ka ajakohastamise
võimalikku mõju inimõigustele ning tootmis-, põllumajandus- ja teenindussektorile.
Volitused, vahearuanne ja lõpparuanne on kättesaadavad kaubanduse peadirektoraadi
veebilehel:
http://ec.europa.eu/trade/policy/policy-making/analysis/policy-evaluation/sustainability-
impact-assessments/index_en.htm
EL ja Mehhiko on saavutanud paljutõotava kokkuleppe, mis on kooskõlas uusimate
kaubanduslepingutega, näiteks lepingutega, mille EL on sõlminud Kanada, Jaapani, Uus-
Meremaa ja Tšiiliga. Leping avab mõlemal turul uusi kaubandus- ja investeerimisvõimalusi
ning toetab ELis töökohtade loomist.
Kaubanduse vahelepinguga kaotatakse muu hulgas enamik tollimakse, laiendatakse
juurdepääsu riigihankelepingutele, avatakse teenusteturg, pakutakse investoritele
prognoositavaid tingimusi ning aidatakse ära hoida ELi uuenduslike ja traditsiooniliste
toodete ebaseaduslikku kopeerimist. Samuti sisaldab kaubanduse vaheleping kõiki tagatisi
selleks, et majanduslik kasu ei tuleks põhiõiguste, sotsiaalsete standardite, valitsuste
õigusnormide kehtestamise õiguse, keskkonnakaitse ega tarbijate tervise ja ohutuse arvelt.
• Õigusnormide toimivus ja lihtsustamine
Kaubanduse vahelepingu suhtes ei kohaldata õigusloome kvaliteedi ja tulemuslikkuse
programmi menetlusi. Sellegipoolest sisaldab see raamistikku, millega lihtsustatakse
kaubandus- ja investeerimismenetlusi ning millega vähenevad ekspordi ja investeeringutega
seotud kulud, mistõttu suurenevad väikeste ja keskmise suurusega ettevõtjate (VKEd)
kaubandus- ja investeerimisvõimalused. Eeldatavate kasutegurite hulka kuuluvad suurem
läbipaistvus, vähem koormavad tehnilised normid, vastavusnõuded, tolliprotseduurid ja
päritolureeglid, intellektuaalomandi õiguste ja geograafiliste tähiste parem kaitse, parem
juurdepääs riigihankemenetlustele ning eripeatükk, millega võimaldatakse VKEdel saada
lepingust võimalikult suurt kasu.
• Põhiõigused
Ettepanek ei mõjuta põhiõiguste kaitset liidus.
4. MÕJU EELARVELE
Kaubanduse vahelepingu mõju liikmesriikide eelarvetele ja ELi eelarvele ilmneks eelkõige
omavahendite kaotusena, mis tuleneb saamata jäänud tollimaksudest, ning oleks väga
piiratud, kuna enamik tollimakse on kehtiva üldlepingu alusel juba kaotatud. Praeguste
kaubavoogude põhjal võib tollimaksudest saadav tulu väheneda ligikaudu 18,75 miljoni euro
võrra. Oodata on kaudset positiivset mõju, mis seisneb käibemaksu ja kogurahvatuluga seotud
vahendite suurenemises.
5. MUU TEAVE
• Rakenduskavad ning järelevalve, hindamise ja aruandluse kord
Kaubanduse vaheleping sisaldab institutsioonilisi sätteid, millega luuakse organid, mille
ülesanne on jälgida lepingu rakendamist, toimimist ja mõju.
ET 5 ET
Kaubanduse vahelepingu institutsiooniliste sätetega kehtestatakse konkreetsed funktsioonid ja
ülesanded kaubandusnõukogule ja kaubanduskomiteele, kes kaubanduse vahelepingu
rakendamist ja kohaldamist jälgivad.
Kaubanduskomitee abistab kaubandusnõukogu tema ülesannete täitmisel ning jälgib kõigi
kaubanduse vahelepingu alusel loodud allkomiteede ja muude organite tööd.
Kaubanduskomitee koosneb ELi ja Mehhiko esindajatest, kes vastutavad kaubandusküsimuste
eest ja tulevad kokku kuupäevadel, mis vastastikku kokku lepitakse.
• Selgitavad dokumendid (direktiivide puhul)
Ei kohaldata.
• Ettepaneku sätete üksikasjalik selgitus
Kaubanduse vaheleping laiendab praeguse kahepoolse kaubandusraamistiku ulatust ning
kohandab seda, et võtta arvesse uusi üleilmseid poliitilisi ja majandusprobleeme, ELi-
Mehhiko partnerluse uut tegelikkust ning ELi ja Mehhiko poolt hiljuti sõlmitud
kaubanduslepingute ja toimunud läbirääkimiste ambitsiooni.
Kaubanduse vahelepinguga luuakse sidus, terviklik, ajakohane ja õiguslikult siduv ELi-
Mehhiko kaubandussuhete raamistik. Leping soodustab kaubandust ja investeeringuid, aidates
kaasa majandus- ja kaubandussuhete laiendamisele ja mitmekesistamisele.
Esmakordselt sisaldab kaubanduse vaheleping kodanikuühiskonnaga konsulteerimise
mehhanismi, mis on laiendatud kogu lepingule, nii et mõlema poole kodanikuühiskonnal on
võimalik avaldada arvamust lepingu kõigi sätete kohta.
Kaubanduse vaheleping sisaldab läbivaatamisklauslit, mis võimaldab lepingu teatavaid
elemente kolm aastat pärast lepingu jõustumist uuesti läbi arutada.
Vastavalt läbirääkimisjuhistes seatud sihtidele püütakse kaubanduse vahelepinguga saavutada
alljärgnevalt loetletud eesmärke.
Põllumajandus- ja kalandustoodete ekspordile parema turulepääsu andmine ja
paremad reeglid
Praeguse üldlepingu kohaselt on kõik tööstuskaubad ja tuntav osa põllumajandus- ja
kalandustoodetest juba liberaliseeritud. Ajakohastamise käigus liberaliseeritakse
kaubavahetuse peatükiga täielikult üle 98,7 % kõigist tariifiridadest ja kaotatakse 95 %
ülejäänud Mehhiko tollitariifidest põllumajandustoodetele.
Kaubavahetust käsitlev tekst sisaldab täiendavaid, veelgi ulatuslikumaid norme, mis
hõlbustavad ELi ja Mehhiko vahelist kaubandust. See sisaldab sätteid, mis käsitlevad tasusid
ja formaalsusi, impordi ja ekspordi litsentsimist, eksporditollimaksude keeldu ning selliste
tariifide sidumist, mille puhul ei ole tollimaksude täielikku kaotamist ette nähtud (kahjulike
maksumeetmete kehtestamisest hoidumine). Samuti sisaldab see uue põlvkonna sätteid
ekspordikonkurentsi, taastootmise ning parandamise järel sisse toodud kaupade kohta ja
kaupade ajutise impordi lihtsustamise sätteid.
Päritolureeglite lihtsustamine
Päritolureeglid on läbi vaadatud ja teatavatel juhtudel on neid lihtsustatud, et võtta arvesse
sektori vajadusi, näiteks vajadust selliste oluliste tööstuskaupade järele nagu autod ja ravimid.
Piirimenetluste ajakohastamine ja lihtsustamine
ET 6 ET
Kaubanduse vaheleping sisaldab ambitsioonikat tolli ja kaubanduse lihtsustamise peatükki,
mille aluseks on WTO kaubanduse lihtsustamise leping ja mis teatavates valdkondades läheb
sellest veelgi kaugemale. EL ja Mehhiko võtavad kohustuse kasutada lihtsustatud,
ajakohaseid ja võimaluse korral automaatseid menetlusi, et kaupu tõhusalt ja kiirendatud
korras vabastada, ja kohaldada selleks ühtlustatud andme- ja dokumendinõudeid,
tollidokumentide ja -teabe saabumiseelset töötlemist ning tulemuslikku ja
mittediskrimineerivat riskijuhtimist.
Õiglase kaubandus- ja ettevõtluskeskkonna tagamine
Selleks et tõhusalt ja tulemuslikult takistada ebaausate kaubandustavade kasutamist, on
lepitud kokku paremates kaubanduse kaitsemeetmetes. Lisaks sisaldab kaubanduse
vaheleping sätteid, millega kaitstakse omamaiseid tootmisharusid juhul, kui lepingukohase
toote import põhjustab või ähvardab põhjustada kõnealusele tootmisharule olulist kahju.
Kaubanduse vaheleping sisaldab ka subsiidiumide peatükki, mis aitab luua ELi ja Mehhiko
äriühingutele võrdsemad tingimused järgmise kaudu: i) nii kaupade kui ka teenuste
subsiidiumide suurem läbipaistvus, ii) konsultatsioonid juhtudel, kui subsiidiumid ähvardavad
avaldada kaubandusele negatiivset mõju, ning iii) reeglid kõige kahjulikumate subsiidiumide
kohta (restruktureerimisabi ilma restruktureerimiskavata ja piiramatud tagatised).
Ühtlasi tagatakse kaubanduse vahelepinguga, et äriühingud järgivad konkurentsi
aluspõhimõtteid: ei kuritarvita turgu valitsevat seisundit, ettevõtjad ei sõlmi konkurentsi
piiravaid kokkuleppeid ja ühinemise korral kontrollitakse selle mõju konkurentsile. Samal ajal
tagab kaubanduse vaheleping turul avaliku ja erasektori ettevõtetele võrdsed võimalused.
Turul kaupu või teenuseid ostes või müües peavad riigi osalusega ettevõtted, eri- või
eelisõigustega ettevõtted ja määratud monopolid tegutsema mittediskrimineerival viisil ja
äriliste kaalutluste alusel.
Ulatuslikum kauplemine kriitiliste toormetega ja neisse investeerimine
Kaubanduse vahelepingu alusel säilib tollimaksuvaba kauplemine kriitiliste toormetega – nii
tagatakse odavam juurdepääs neile ELi rohe- ja digipöörde jaoks hädavajalikele materjalidele
ning väiksemad kulud. Peale selle keelatakse uue lepinguga ekspordimonopolid ja valitsuse
põhjendamatu sekkumine toormehindade kujundamisse ning keelatakse sellised
ekspordihinnad või kahetine hinnakujundus, kus ekspordihinnad on seatud omamaistest
hindadest kõrgemaks. Samuti on selles erisätted Mehhikoga toorainete väärtusahelates tehtava
koostöö kohta.
Kestlikkuse ja soolise võrdõiguslikkuse tagamine
Kaubanduse vaheleping sisaldab kaugeleulatuvat ja põhjalikku peatükki kaubanduse ja
kestliku arengu kohta, et lõimida kestlik areng paremini lepinguosaliste kaubandus- ja
investeerimissuhetesse: selleks nähakse ette õiguslikult siduvad kohustused keskkonnakaitse,
kliimamuutuste ja töötajate õiguste alal, sätted koostöö ja dialoogi kohta, muu hulgas
kodanikuühiskonnaga, ning vaidluste lahendamise kord. See peatükk sisaldab ka
läbivaatamisklauslit, mille kohaselt peavad lepinguosalised arutama kestlikkussätete edasise
täiendamise võimalusi, sealhulgas vastumeetmete kehtestamist rikkumiste korral, ja võimalust
kaaluda Pariisi kokkuleppe lisamist lepingu olulise osana. Läbivaatamine algab lepingu
jõustumisel ja peaks jõudma lõpule 12 kuuga.
Samuti on lepinguosalised kokku leppinud kaubanduse ja soolise võrdõiguslikkuse
ühisdeklaratsioonis, mis sisaldab sätteid soolist võrdõiguslikkust ja naiste õigusi käsitlevate
rahvusvaheliste kohustuste tulemusliku rakendamise kohta ning millega tugevdatakse
koostööd soolise võrdõiguslikkuse poliitika ja meetmete kaubandusaspektide alal.
Ühisdeklaratsioon on lepingu lahutamatu osa.
ET 7 ET
Keskendumine väiksemate ettevõtjate vajadustele
Kaubanduse vahelepingus nõutakse, et EL ja Mehhiko looksid VKEdele veebisaidi, mis
lihtsustab nende juurdepääsu teabele ja võimaldab neil seega kõikidest lepingu sätetest kasu
saada. ELis ja Mehhikos paiknevad kontaktpunktid töötavad üheskoos selleks, et võtta arvesse
VKEde erivajadusi ja selgitada välja, kuidas neil on võimalik kummalgi turul uusi võimalusi
kasutada.
Võimaluste loomine teenuseosutajatele ja digikaubanduse eeskirjad
Kaubanduse vaheleping sisaldab teenuste ja investeeringute turulepääsu üldpõhimõtteid
kõikides majandussektorites ning eripõhimõtteid digikaubanduse jaoks. Sellega püütakse luua
võrdsed võimalused eelkõige ELi teenuseosutajatele, kes tegutsevad sellistes sektorites nagu
telekommunikatsioon ja finantsteenused ning sellistes valdkondades nagu kättetoimetamis- ja
mereveoteenused. Kaubanduse vahelepinguga nähakse lepinguosalistele ette raamistik
üksteise kvalifikatsioonide tunnustamiseks reguleeritud kutsealadel, nagu arhitektid,
raamatupidajad, juristid ja insenerid. Digikaubanduses kehtestatakse lepinguga muu hulgas
põhimõtted, mis kehtivad horisontaalselt (sellistes valdkondades nagu kaupade ja teenuste e-
kaubandus jms) ning mis on e-kaubanduse hea toimimise jaoks hädavajalikud.
Investeeringute soodustamine
Kaubanduse vaheleping sisaldab investeeringute liberaliseerimise sätteid, mis järgivad sama
lähenemisviisi kui muud seni sõlmitud kõige ambitsioonikamad ELi kaubanduslepingud.
Eelkõige kohaldatakse kõiki investeeringute peatüki sisulisi põhimõtteid nii teenustesektori
kui ka muude sektorite suhtes. Eeskätt on investoritele ja nende investeeringutele kasuks
kohustus tagada kodumaiste või kolmandate riikide investorite ja investeeringutega võrreldes
mittediskrimineeriv kohtlemine, samuti kaugeleulatuvad turulepääsu põhimõtted (käsitletakse
kvantitatiivseid piiranguid, nagu monopole ja ainuõigusi, kvoote ja majandusvajaduste teste),
aga ka teatavate tulemuslikkuse nõuete keeld. Energiasektoris tagatakse kaubanduse
vahelepinguga, et enamsoodustusrežiimi põhimõtet kohaldatakse nii nende
vabakaubanduslepingute puhul, mille Mehhiko on varem sõlminud, kui ka nende puhul, mille
ta tulevikus sõlmib. Seega tagab leping, et ELi investoreid koheldakse võrdselt Mehhiko teiste
sooduskaubanduspartnerite investoritega.
Mehhiko avalikele hangetele juurdepääsu võimaldamine
Kaubanduse vahelepinguga antakse hankemenetlustes osalevatele pakkujatele rohkem
võimalusi. Mehhiko on avanud oma riigihanked ELi äriühingutele palju ulatuslikumalt kui
teiste oma kaubanduspartnerite äriühingutele. ELi ettevõtted on esimesed Mehhiko-välised
ettevõtted, kes saavad võimaluse teha pakkumusi kaupade ja teenuste pakkumiseks mitte
ainult föderaaltasandil, vaid ka majanduslikult kõige olulisemates Mehhiko osariikides.
Samuti võtavad EL ja Mehhiko kohustuse kehtestada oma riigihankemenetlustele
nüüdisaegne reeglistik, milles kohaldatakse rangeid läbipaistvuse, diskrimineerimiskeelu ja
võrdse kohtlemise standardeid.
Leiutiste ja loometeoste kaitse
Kaubanduse vahelepinguga kehtestatakse võrdsed tingimused, mille kohaselt Mehhiko ja EL
järgivad ühist lähenemisviisi ka intellektuaalomandi õiguskaitse tagamisel ning mõlemad
pooled võtavad meetmeid, et võidelda võltsimise, piraattoodete ja konkurentsivastase
tegevusega. See tagab intellektuaalomandi õiguste range kaitse ja õiguskaitse. Siia hulka
kuulub ka valitud loetellu kuuluvate ELi ja Mehhiko geograafiliste tähiste vastastikune kaitse.
ELi poolelt kuulub sellesse loetellu 336 ELi geograafilist tähist. See lisandub ELi kangete
alkohoolsete jookide geograafilistele tähistele, mis on juba saanud samasuguse kaitsetaseme
ET 8 ET
1997. aasta ELi-Mehhiko piiritusjookide lepinguga, mis inkorporeeritakse kaubanduse
vahelepingusse ja muudetakse selle osaks.
Võimalus kaubelda ohutute põllumajanduslike toiduainetega ilma tarbetute sanitaar- ja
fütosanitaarpiiranguteta
Kaubanduse vaheleping sisaldab ulatuslikku sanitaar- ja fütosanitaarküsimuste peatükki,
milles on sätestatud mitmed kaubanduse lihtsustamise meetmed (sealhulgas eelkontrolli
kaotamine). See peaks võimaldama kiiremat, kuid siiski ohutut kauplemist. Nii ELile kui ka
Mehhikole jääb õigus kehtestada selline kaitsetase, mida nad peavad asjakohaseks.
Selle tagamine, et tehnilised normid, standardid ja vastavushindamismenetlused ei ole
diskrimineerivad ega tekita tarbetuid kaubandustõkkeid
Kaubanduse vahelepingus korratakse ELi ja Mehhiko võetud kohustust võtta oma tehniliste
normide aluseks rahvusvahelised standardid ja leppida kokku rahvusvaheliste
standardiorganisatsioonide avatud nimekirjas. Kaubanduse vahelepingus tunnistatakse, et
lepinguosaliste lähenemine vastavushindamisele ja nende vastavad kaubanduse lihtsustamise
meetmed on erinevad: EL kasutab tarnija vastavusdeklaratsiooni, Mehhiko aga tunnustab
toodete sertifitseerimist ELis.
Läbipaistvuse tagamine ja head reguleerimistavad
Kaubanduse vaheleping sisaldab läbipaistvuse peatükki, milles on ambitsioonikad sätted
kaubandusküsimustega seotud üldkohaldatavate meetmete avaldamise, haldamise ning
läbivaatamise ja kaebuste esitamise kohta, ning peatükki, milles nähakse ette head
reguleerimistavad, mida EL ja Mehhiko oma normide väljatöötamisel kohaldavad.
Nüüdisaegse vaidluste lahendamise korra rakendamine
Kaubanduse vaheleping sisaldab sätteid riikidevaheliste vaidluste lahendamise kohta:
kehtestatakse nüüdisaegsed tulemuslikud ja läbipaistvad menetlused, mis põhinevad
nõuetekohasel protsessil, millega hoitakse ära või lahendatakse kõik Mehhiko ja ELi
vahelised vaidlused.

(3) Praeguse ELi-Mehhiko üldlepingu ajakohastuses on ette nähtud kaks paralleelset
õigusakti. Esimene neist on ühelt poolt Euroopa Liidu ja selle liikmesriikide ning
teiselt poolt Mehhiko Ühendriikide vaheline strateegilise poliitilise ja majandusliku
partnerluse leping, mis sisaldab poliitilist ja koostöösammast ning kaubandus- ja
investeerimissammast (sealhulgas sätteid investeeringute kaitse kohta), Teine akt on
Euroopa Liidu ja Mehhiko Ühendriikide vaheline kaubanduse vaheleping (edaspidi
„leping“), mis käsitleb kaubanduse ja investeeringute liberaliseerimist. Leping kaotab
kehtivuse ja asendatakse ajakohastatud üldlepinguga, kui viimane on jõustunud.
(4) Lepingu eesmärk on soodustada lepinguosaliste vahel kaubanduse ja investeeringute
kasvu ja kestlikkust, laiendades ja mitmekesistades nende majandus- ja
kaubandussuhteid, luues nii töötajatele kui ka ettevõtjatele, eelkõige väikeettevõtjatele,
uusi võimalusi ning aidates samal ajal edendada kestlikku arengut selle sotsiaalses ja
keskkonnamõõtmes.
(5) Seetõttu tuleks leping liidu nimel allkirjastada, eeldusel et see hiljem sõlmitakse,

Kavandatav määrus ei põhjusta täiendavaid kulusid ELi eelarvest (kulude poolel).
Kaubanduse vahelepingul on finantsmõju ELi eelarve tulude poolele. Kaubanduse
vahelepingu jõustumisel jääb saamata hinnanguliselt 18,75 miljoni euro ulatuses
tollimakse8.
Oodata on kaudset positiivset mõju, mis seisneb käibemaksu ja kogurahvatuluga
seotud vahendite suurenemises.

Saamata jääva tulu hinnanguline summa 18,75 miljonit eurot ei sisalda sissenõudmiskulusid (25 miljoni
euro suurusest hinnangulisest saamata jäävast tulust on maha arvatud 25 %).

1. Kumbki lepinguosaline võtab kõik üld- või erimeetmed, mis on vajalikud käesolevast
lepingust tulenevate kohustuste täitmiseks, sealhulgas meetmed, mis on vajalikud, et tagada nende
täitmine keskvalitsuse, piirkondlike või kohalike omavalitsuste ja asutuste ning valitsusväliste
asutuste poolt neile delegeeritud volitusi kasutades.
& /et 16
2. Kui kumbki lepinguosaline leiab, et teinelepinguosaline
– ei austa põhimõtteid, õigusi või põhivabadusi, millele on osutatud ajakohastatud üldlepingu I
osa artiklis 2, või
– ei ole täitnud või rakendanud desarmeerimist ja tuumarelva leviku tõkestamist käsitlevatest
rahvusvahelistest lepingutest ja kokkulepetest tulenevaid kehtivaid kohustusi või muid
rahvusvahelisi kohustusi, millele on osutatud ajakohastatud üldlepingu II osa artiklis 1.4,
võib ta võtta asjakohaseid meetmeid vastavalt ajakohastatud üldlepingu IV osa artikli 2.3 lõike 3
sätetele (kohustuste täitmine). Käesoleva lõike kohaldamisel võivad „asjakohased meetmed“
hõlmata käesoleva lepingu osalist või täielikku peatamist.
Kumbki lepinguosaline võib teostada käesoleva lõikega ette nähtud õigust, olenemata sellest, kas
ajakohastatud üldlepingu asjakohased sätted on jõustunud või neid kohaldatakse ajutiselt.
3. Lõikes 2 osutatud asjakohaste meetmete võtmisel järgitakse igati rahvusvahelist õigust ning
need meetmed peavad olema proportsionaalsed lõikes 2 osutatud kohustuste täitmata jätmisega.
Eelistada tuleb meetmeid, mis häirivad käesoleva lepingu toimimist kõige vähem. Käesoleva
lepingu osaline või täielik peatamine on viimane abinõu.

a) tagasitoodud kaup on sama kaup, mis eksporditi, ning
b) tagasitoodud kaup ei ole läbinud ühtegi muud toimingut peale nende, mis on vajalikud kauba
hea seisundi säilitamiseks kõnealuses kolmandas riigis viibimise või ekspordi ajal.
& /et 68
ARTIKKEL 3.14
Mittemuutmise põhimõte
1. Lepinguosalise impordiks deklareeritud kaup peab olema sama kaup, mida eksporditakse teise
lepinguosalise territooriumilt, kus seda käsitatakse päritolustaatusega kaubana. Kõnealust kaupa ei
tohi enne impordiks deklareerimist muuta, ümber kujundada ega teha muid toiminguid peale nende,
mis on vajalikud selle heas seisukorras hoidmiseks või märgiste, etikettide, pitserite või muude
eraldusmärkide lisamiseks või kinnitamiseks, et tagada vastavus importiva lepinguosalise
riigisisestele erinõuetele.
2. Kaupade või saadetiste ladustamine võib toimuda kolmandas riigis tingimusel, et need jäävad
selles kolmandas riigis tollijärelevalve alla.
3. Ilma et see piiraks B jao sätete kohaldamist, võib saadetiste osadeks jagamine toimuda
kolmandas riigis, kui seda teostab eksportija või see toimub eksportija vastutusel ja tingimusel, et
kaubad jäävad kõnealuses kolmandas riigis tollijärelevalve alla.
4. Lõigete 1–3 nõudeid peetakse täidetuks, välja arvatud juhul, kui tolliasutusel on põhjust
arvata vastupidist. Sellisel juhul tõendab importija kooskõlas kummagi lepinguosalise
õigusnormidega nõuetele vastavust asjakohaste vahendite abil, mille hulka kuuluvad lepingulised
veodokumendid, nagu veokirjad, faktilised või konkreetsed tõendid, mis põhinevad märgistusel või
pakendite nummerdamisel, või kauba endaga seotud tõendid.

ARTIKKEL 3.15
Näitused
1. Päritolustaatusega toodete suhtes, mis saadetakse kolmandasse riiki näitusele ja müüakse
pärast näitust impordiks lepinguosalise territooriumile, kohaldatakse importimisel käesoleva
lepingu sätteid, kui tolliasutustele on tõendatud, et
a) eksportija on saatnud need tooted lepinguosalise territooriumilt sellesse kolmandasse riiki, kus
näitus toimub, ja on neid seal eksponeerinud;
b) see eksportija on tooted müünud või muul viisil võõrandanud lepinguosalise territooriumil
asuvale isikule;
c) tooted on saadetud näituse ajal või vahetult pärast seda samas seisukorras, milles need
näitusele saadeti, ning
d) tooteid ei ole pärast näitusele saatmist kasutatud muudel eesmärkidel kui näitusel
esitlemiseks.
2. Päritolukinnitus tuleb koostada vastavalt B jao sätetele ja esitada importiva lepinguosalise
tolliasutusele tavapärasel viisil. Sellele tuleb märkida näituse nimi ja aadress.

3. Lõiget 1 kohaldatakse kõikide kaubandus-, tööstus-, põllumajandus- või käsitöönäituste,
messide või samalaadsete avalike näituste või väljapanekute suhtes, mida ei korraldata isiklikel
eesmärkidel kauplustes või äriruumides kõnealuste toodete müümiseks ja mille jooksul tooted
jäävad tollikontrolli alla.
4. Importiva lepinguosalise tolliasutus võib nõuda tõendeid selle kohta, et tooted on jäänud
kolmandas riigis, kus näitus toimub, tollikontrolli alla, ning täiendavaid dokumentaalseid tõendeid
selle kohta, millistel tingimustel neid on eksponeeritud.

Lahknevused ja väikesed vead
1. Päritolukinnituses ja tolliasutusele toodete impordiga seotud formaalsuste täitmiseks esitatud
dokumentides olevate andmete vahel väikeste lahknevuste avastamisel ei muuda see asjaolu
päritolukinnitust iseenesest tühiseks, kui nõuetekohaselt tõendatakse, et see dokument vastab
asjaomastele toodetele.
2. Importiva lepinguosalise tolliasutus ei jäta päritolukinnituses esinevate väikeste vigade,
näiteks trükivigade tõttu tariifse sooduskohtlemise taotlust rahuldamata.
ARTIKKEL 3.22
Dokumentide säilitamise nõuded
1. Importija, kes taotleb lepinguosalise territooriumile imporditud kauba suhtes tariifset
sooduskohtlemist, peab omama eksportija koostatud päritolukinnitust ja säilitama seda kolme aasta

lisateabe saamiseks. Kui pädev uurimisasutus otsustab korraldada avaliku istungi, võib selle
toimumise aja ja koha lisada algatamisteatesse või teatada sellest menetluse hilisemas etapis,
tingimusel et sellest teatatakse aegsasti ette. Kui uurimise alguses ei ole avalikku istungit
kavandatud, märgitakse algatamisteates tähtaeg, mille jooksul huvitatud isikud võivad taotleda, et
pädev uurimisasutus neid suuliselt ära kuulaks.
4. Seoses kaitsemeetmete menetlusega, mis on algatatud kirjaliku taotluse alusel, mille on
esitanud üksus, kes väidab, et ta esindab omamaist tootmisharu, ei avalda pädev uurimisasutus
lõike 3 kohast algatamisteadet, ilma et ta oleks eelnevalt hoolikalt hinnanud, kas taotlus vastab tema
õigusaktide ja lõike 1 nõuetele ning kas see sisaldab põhjendatud tõendeid selle kohta, et teise
lepinguosalise päritolustaatusega kauba import on käesoleva lepingu kohase tollimaksu
vähendamise või kaotamise tulemusena suurenenud ning et selline import põhjustab või ähvardab
põhjustada väidetavat olulist kahju või majandusolukorra tõsist halvenemist.

ARTIKKEL 5.18
Uurimine
1. Lepinguosaline võib kohaldada kaitsemeetmeid ainult pärast seda, kui tema pädev
uurimisasutus on käesolevas alajaos sätestatud menetluse kohaselt läbi viinud uurimise. Uurimine
hõlmab kõikide huvitatud isikute mõistlikku avalikku teavitamist ning avalikke istungeid või muid
asjakohaseid vahendeid, mille käigus importijad, eksportijad ja teised huvitatud isikud saavad
esitada tõendeid ja oma seisukohti, sealhulgas võimaluse vastata teiste isikute esitatud väidetele.
2. Kumbki lepinguosaline tagab, et tema pädev uurimisasutus viib iga sellise uurimise lõpule
ühe aasta jooksul pärast selle algatamist.
ARTIKKEL 5.19
Olulise kahju olemasolu või selle ohu tuvastamine ja põhjuslik seos
1. Kui pädev uurimisasutus uurib, kas suurenenud import põhjustab või ähvardab põhjustada
olulist kahju omamaisele tootmisharule, hindab ta kõiki asjakohaseid objektiivseid ja mõõdetavaid
tegureid, mis mõjutavad omamaise tootmisharu olukorda, eelkõige vaatlusaluse toote impordi kasvu
määra ja kogust absoluutarvudes ja võrreldes omamaise toodanguga, suurenenud impordi osakaalu
omamaisel turul ning muutusi müügi, tootmise, tootlikkuse, tootmisvõimsuse rakendamise, kasumi
ja kahjumi ning tööhõive tasemes.
& /et 127
2. Otsus, et suurenenud import põhjustab või ähvardab põhjustada artiklis 5.10 või 5.15
kirjeldatud olukordi, tehakse ainult juhul, kui uurimine näitab objektiivsete tõendite põhjal, et
vaatlusaluse toote suurenenud impordi ja artiklis 5.10 või 5.15 kirjeldatud olukordade vahel on
selge põhjuslik seos. Kui artiklis 5.10 või 5.15 kirjeldatud olukordi põhjustavad samal ajal muud
tegurid kui suurenenud import, ei saa sellist kahju või selle ohtu või majandusolukorra tõsist
halvenemist või selle ohtu seostada suurenenud impordiga.
ARTIKKEL 5.20
Istungid
Kaitsemeetmete menetluse käigus teeb pädev uurimisasutus järgmist:
a) korraldab pärast mõistliku etteteatamist avaliku istungi, et võimaldada kõikidel huvitatud
isikutel, keda käsitatakse sellisena asjaomase lepinguosalise õiguse kohaselt, tulla isiklikult
või advokaadi vahendusel kohale, esitada tõendeid ja olla ära kuulatud seoses olulise kahju
või selle ohuga või majandusliku olukorra tõsise halvenemise või selle ohuga ning asjakohase
õiguskaitsevahendiga, või
& /et 128
b) Euroopa Liidu puhul annab teise võimalusena kõikidele huvitatud isikutele võimaluse olla ära
kuulatud, kui nad on algatamisteates sätestatud tähtaja jooksul esitanud kirjaliku taotluse,
milles nad näitavad, et uurimise tulemus võib neid mõjutada ja et nende suuliseks
ärakuulamiseks on erilised põhjused.
ARTIKKEL 5.21
Konfidentsiaalne teave
Pädev uurimisasutus käsitleb mõjuvatel põhjustel konfidentsiaalsena mis tahes teavet, mis on oma
olemuselt konfidentsiaalne või mis on esitatud konfidentsiaalsena. Sellist teavet ei avalikustata ilma
selle esitanud isiku loata. Konfidentsiaalset teavet esitavad isikud peavad esitama selle
mittekonfidentsiaalse kokkuvõtte, või kui kõnealused isikud märgivad, et sellist teavet ei saa
kokkuvõtlikult esitada, siis põhjused, miks kokkuvõtet ei saa esitada. Kokkuvõte peab olema
piisavalt üksikasjalik, et võimaldada esitatud konfidentsiaalse teabe sisust mõistlikult aru saada. Kui
pädev uurimisasutus leiab siiski, et konfidentsiaalsustaotlus ei ole põhjendatud, ja kui asjaomane
isik ei soovi teavet avalikustada või ei luba seda üldistatud või kokkuvõtlikul kujul avalikustada,
võib pädev uurimisasutus jätta sellise teabe arvesse võtmata, välja arvatud juhul, kui talle
tõendatakse asjakohaste allikate põhjal, et teave on õige.
& /et 129
ARTIKKEL 5.22
Vastuvõtmine, teatamine, konsulteerimine ja avaldamine
1. Kui lepinguosaline leiab, et esineb üks artiklis 5.10 või 5.15 sätestatud olukordadest, suunab
ta küsimuse viivitamata kaubanduskomiteele uurimiseks. Kaubanduskomitee võib anda soovitusi,
mis on vajalikud tekkinud olukorra lahendamiseks. Kui kaubanduskomitee ei ole olukorra
lahendamiseks soovitust andnud või kui 30 päeva jooksul pärast küsimuse suunamist
kaubanduskomiteele ei ole saavutatud muud rahuldavat lahendust, võib importiv lepinguosaline
võtta kahepoolseid kaitsemeetmeid, mis on asjakohased olukorra lahendamiseks vastavalt C jaole.
2. Pädev uurimisasutus esitab eksportivale lepinguosalisele kogu asjakohase teabe, mis sisaldab
tõendeid suurenenud impordist põhjustatud olulise kahju või selle ohu või majandusliku olukorra
tõsise halvenemise või selle ohu kohta, asjaomase toote ja kavandatava kahepoolse kaitsemeetme

tooted vastaksid importiva lepinguosalise sanitaar- või fütosanitaarkaitse asjakohasele tasemele.
Selleks kehtestab ja rakendab eksportiv lepinguosaline asjakohased kontrollimeetmed, sealhulgas
vajaduse korral riskipõhised kohapealsed kontrollid. Importiv lepinguosaline võib nõuda, et
eksportiva lepinguosalise asjakohane pädev astutus tõendaks importivale lepinguosalisele
objektiivselt, et impordinõuded on täidetud.
& /et 151
4. Kui importiv lepinguosaline nõuab toote heakskiitmist enne importi, teeb ta eksportiva
lepinguosalise taotlusel viivitamata kättesaadavaks teabe sanitaar- ja fütosanitaaralaste

taotluse heakskiitmise menetlust. Heakskiitmismenetlus järgib artiklis 6.10 sätestatud menetlust
ning samasuguste või sarnaste sanitaar- või fütosanitaartingimustega liikmesriikide rühma taotluse
puhul ei tohi see võtta kauem aega kui ühe liikmesriigi taotluse puhul.
4. Sama tootega seotud järgmise eksporditaotluse puhul kiidab importiv lepinguosaline taotluse
heaks hiljemalt kuus kuud pärast taotluse saamist, välja arvatud nõuetekohaselt põhjendatud
juhtudel. Teabenõuded peavad piirduma üksnes vajalikuga ja neis tuleb arvesse võtta importivale
lepinguosalisele juba kättesaadavat teavet, näiteks teavet õigusraamistiku ja varasemate
auditiaruannete kohta.
ARTIKKEL 6.15
Liigsete kontrollimeetmete kaotamine
1. Lepinguosalised tunnistavad, et eksportiv lepinguosaline vastutab selle eest, et
ekspordikõlblikud ettevõtted, rajatised ja tooted vastaksid importiva lepinguosalise kohaldatavatele
sanitaarnõuetele.
& /et 164
2. Kui importival lepinguosalisel on nimekiri konkreetse kauba importimiseks heakskiidetud
ettevõtetest või rajatistest, kiidab ta eksportiva lepinguosalise taotlusel, millele on lisatud
asjakohased tagatised, eksportiva lepinguosalise territooriumil asuva ettevõtte või rajatise ilma seda
eelnevalt kontrollimata heaks järgmistel tingimustel ja korras:
a) importiv lepinguosaline on andnud kauba importimiseks loa eksportiva lepinguosalise
pädevate asutuste kohaldatava loomatervise ja toiduohutuse tingimusi puudutava
kontrollisüsteemi tehtud hindamise alusel;
b) eksportiva lepinguosalise pädev asutus on asjaomase ettevõtte või rajatise heaks kiitnud;
c) eksportiva lepinguosalise pädeval asutusel on volitus asjaomasele ettevõttele või rajatisele
antud heakskiit peatada või tühistada ning
d) eksportiv lepinguosaline on esitanud importiva lepinguosalise nõutud teabe.
3. Importiv lepinguosaline kannab ettevõtted või rajatised heakskiidetud ettevõtete või rajatiste
nimekirja tavaliselt 45 päeva jooksul pärast eksportiva lepinguosalise taotluse kättesaamist.
Nimekiri tehakse üldsusele kättesaadavaks.
& /et 165
4. Importival lepinguosalisel on õigus eksportiva lepinguosalise kontrollisüsteemi pärast
ekspordiloa andmist auditeerida. Need auditid võivad hõlmata heakskiidetud ettevõtete või rajatiste
nimekirja kantud representatiivse arvu heakskiidetud ettevõtete või rajatiste kohapealset kontrolli
või nende ettevõtete või rajatiste kontrolli, mille heakskiitmist on eksportiv lepinguosaline
taotlenud. Kui importiv lepinguosaline avastab auditi tulemusel korduvaid tõsiseid mittevastavuse
juhtumeid, võib importiv lepinguosaline eksportiva lepinguosalise pädeva asutuse kontrollisüsteemi
tunnustamise peatada.
5. Nõuetekohaselt põhjendatud asjaoludel võib importiv lepinguosaline keelduda selliste
ettevõtete või rajatiste heakskiitmisest, mida peetakse tema nõuetele mittevastavaks. Sellisel juhul
teavitab importiv lepinguosaline eksportivat lepinguosalist ettevõtete või rajatiste heakskiitmisest
keeldumisest ja esitab keeldumise põhjenduse.
6. Importiv lepinguosaline võib heakskiitmismenetluse raames läbi viia artikli 6.11 kohaseid
auditeid. Sellised auditid piirduvad ettevõtte või rajatise heakskiitmise eest vastutava pädeva
asutuse struktuuri, korralduse ja kohustustega ning importiva lepinguosalise nõuetele vastavusega
seotud sanitaartagatistega. Need auditid võivad hõlmata heakskiidetud ettevõtete või rajatiste
nimekirja kantud representatiivse arvu heakskiidetud ettevõtete või rajatiste kohapealset kontrolli
või nende ettevõtete või rajatiste kontrolli, mille heakskiitmist on eksportiv lepinguosaline
taotlenud.
7. Importiv lepinguosaline võib auditi tulemuste põhjal ettevõtete või rajatiste nimekirja muuta.

2. Erakorralist meedet vastu võttev lepinguosaline teatab sellest viivitamata kirjalikult teisele
lepinguosalisele. Erakorralise meetme vastu võtnud lepinguosaline võtab arvesse teise
lepinguosalise esitatud teavet.
3. Pärast erakorralise meetme vastuvõtmist vaatab lepinguosaline selle põhjendused tavaliselt
kuue kuu jooksul läbi, tingimusel et asjakohane teave on kättesaadav, ja teavitab taotluse korral teist
lepinguosalist läbivaatamise tulemustest. Lepinguosaline ei jäta erakorralist meedet kehtima, välja
arvatud juhul, kui kiireloomuline probleem või oht püsib. Kui lepinguosaline jätab erakorralise
meetme kehtima, tuleks see meede korrapäraselt läbi vaadata.
4. Erakorralise meetme vastu võtnud lepinguosaline peab tarbetute kaubandushäirete vältimiseks
pakkuma kõige sobivamat ja proportsionaalsemat lahendust lepinguosaliste vahel veetavate
saadetiste jaoks, võttes arvesse tuvastatud riski.

ARTIKKEL 7.3
Antimikroobikumiresistentsus
1. Lepinguosalised tunnistavad, et antimikroobikumiresistentsus kujutab endast tõsist ohtu
inimeste ja loomade tervisele. Antimikroobikumide väärkasutamine loomakasvatuses, sealhulgas
nende kasutamine muul otstarbel kui raviks, võib soodustada antimikroobikumiresistentsuse teket,
mis võib ohustada inimeste ja loomade tervist. Lepinguosalised tunnistavad, et ohu laadi tõttu on
vaja riikidevahelist ja terviseühtsuse22 põhimõttel põhinevat lähenemisviisi.
2. Lepinguosalised teevad koostööd, et vähendada antimikroobikumide kasutamist
loomakasvatuses ja keelata nende kasutamine kasvu soodustava vahendina, eesmärgiga võidelda
antimikroobikumiresistentsuse vastu kooskõlas terviseühtsuse põhimõttega.
22 Maailma Terviseorganisatsiooni (WHO) määratluse kohaselt on terviseühtsus põhimõte, mis
ühendab eri sektorite poliitikameetmeid, et saavutada paremaid tulemusi rahvatervise
valdkonnas.

kõigi nende territooriumi aluspinnases asuvate süsivesinike omandiõigust ja haldamist riigi või
asjaomaste ametiasutuste poolt, ning üksteise suveräänset õigust reguleerida käesolevas peatükis
käsitletud küsimusi kooskõlas oma vastavate õigusaktidega, lähtudes täiel määral oma
demokraatlikest protsessidest.
2. Mehhiko puhul tunnistab Euroopa Liit, ilma et see piiraks tema käesolevast lepingust
tulenevaid õigusi ja õiguskaitsevahendeid23, et:
a) Mehhiko jätab omale suveräänse õiguse reformida oma põhiseadust (Constitución Política de
los Estados Unidos Mexicanos) ja oma energiasektorit, sealhulgas süsivesinikke ja elektrit
käsitlevat seadusandlust.
23 Suurema selguse huvides tuleb märkida, et need õigused ja õiguskaitsevahendid hõlmavad
õigusi ja õiguskaitsevahendeid, mis tulenevad 10. peatüki „Investeeringud“ ja sellega seotud
lisade sätetest tulenevaid Mehhiko kohustusi.

& /et 179
ARTIKKEL 9.4
Rahvusvahelised standardid
1. Lepinguosalised tunnistavad, et rahvusvahelistel standarditel, suunistel ja soovitustel võib olla
oluline roll õigusnormide suurema ühtlustamise ja heade tavade toetamisel ning tarbetute tehniliste
kaubandustõkete vähendamisel. Selleks kasutavad lepinguosalised oma tehniliste normide alusena
asjakohaseid rahvusvahelisi standardeid, välja arvatud juhul, kui tehnilist normi koostav
lepinguosaline suudab tõendada, et need rahvusvahelised standardid oleksid taotletavate
õiguspäraste eesmärkide saavutamiseks ebatõhusad või asjakohatud.
2. Lisaks tehniliste kaubandustõkete lepingu artiklites 2 ja 5 ning 3. lisas sätestatud kohustustele
võtab kumbki lepinguosaline muu hulgas arvesse WTO tehniliste kaubandustõkete komitee poolt

mille liikmeks lepinguosaline või tema territooriumil asuvad standardiorganisatsioonid on, tegema
järgmist:
a) osalema vastavalt oma võimalustele asjakohaste rahvusvaheliste standardiorganisatsioonide
töös rahvusvaheliste standardite väljatöötamisel;
b) kasutama standardite väljatöötamiseks asjakohaseid rahvusvahelisi standardeid, välja arvatud
juhul, kui sellised rahvusvahelised standardid oleksid õiguspäraste eesmärkide saavutamiseks
ebatõhusad või asjakohatud ebapiisava kaitsetaseme, oluliste klimaatiliste või geograafiliste
tegurite või oluliste tehnoloogiaprobleemide tõttu;
c) tagama, et nende tegevus ei dubleeriks rahvusvaheliste standardiorganisatsioonide tööd ega
kattuks sellega;
d) vaatama korrapäraselt läbi riiklikud ja piirkondlikud standardid, mis ei põhine asjakohastel
rahvusvahelistel standarditel, et lähendada neid asjaomastele rahvusvahelistele standarditele;
& /et 181
e) tegema teise lepinguosalise asjaomaste standardiorganisatsioonidega rahvusvahelises
standardimistegevuses koostööd, eesmärgiga tagada, et rahvusvahelised standardid, suunised
ja soovitused, mis tõenäoliselt saavad tehniliste normide ja vastavushindamismenetluste
aluseks, ei looks tarbetuid takistusi rahvusvahelisele kaubandusele; koostööd võib teha nii
rahvusvaheliste standardiorganisatsioonide tasandil kui ka piirkondlikul tasandil;
f) soodustama kahepoolset koostööd teise lepinguosalise territooriumil asuvate

a) lepinguosaliste territooriumidel asuvate vastavushindamisasutuste vahelised vabatahtlikud
kokkulepped;
b) kokkulepped teise lepinguosalise territooriumil asuvate asutuste poolt konkreetsete tehniliste
normidega seoses läbiviidud vastavushindamismenetluste tulemuste vastastikuse
tunnustamise kohta;
c) akrediteerimismenetluste kasutamine vastavushindamisasutuste kvalifitseerimiseks;
d) vastavushindamisasutuste määramine või vajaduse korral heakskiitmine valitsuse poolt;
e) lepinguosalise poolt teise lepinguosalise territooriumil asuvate vastavushindamisasutuste
tulemuste tunnustamine ning
f) tarnija vastavusdeklaratsiooni aktsepteerimine importiva lepinguosalise poolt.
& /et 183
2. Tunnistades, et lepinguosaliste territooriumidel kohaldatakse erinevaid
vastavushindamismenetlusi:
a) kohaldab Euroopa Liit vastavalt oma õigusnormidele tarnija vastavusdeklaratsiooni korda
ning
b) Mehhiko aktsepteerib oma õigusnormidega ettenähtud viisil ja ilma täiendavate nõueteta
Mehhiko tehniliste normide, sealhulgas pärast käesoleva lepingu jõustumist vastuvõetud
tehniliste normide nõuetele vastavuse tõendina sertifikaate, mille on välja andnud Euroopa
Liidu territooriumil asuvad vastavushindamisasutused, mis on akrediteeritud Mehhiko
akrediteerimisasutuse poolt ja mille pädev asutus on heaks kiitnud.
Sellega seoses võimaldab Mehhiko Euroopa Liidu territooriumil asuvatele
vastavushindamisasutustele vähemalt sama soodsat kohtlemist kui oma territooriumil
asuvatele vastavushindamisasutustele.
Käesoleva lõike sätted ei takista Mehhikot kontrollimast üksikute
vastavushindamismenetluste tulemusi, kui ta ei nõua, et toote suhtes kohaldataks Mehhiko
territooriumil vastavushindamismenetlusi, mis dubleerivad Euroopa Liidu territooriumil juba
läbiviidud vastavushindamismenetlusi, välja arvatud pisteliselt või harva järelevalve või auditi
eesmärgil või vastusena mittevastavusele viitava teabe korral.

3. Olenemata lõikest 2 võib lepinguosaline kehtestada nõuded toodete kohustuslikuks
katsetamiseks või sertifitseerimiseks kolmanda isiku poolt, kui inimeste tervise ja ohutuse kaitsega
seotud kaalukad põhjused õigustavad selliste nõuete või sertifitseerimise kehtestamist.
4. Käesolev artikkel ei takista lepinguosalist nõudmast, et konkreetsete toodete
vastavushindamist teeksid selle lepinguosalise kindlaksmääratud valitsusasutused. Sellistel juhtudel
peab lepinguosaline tegema järgmist:
a) piirama vastavushindamise eest makstavate tasude suuruse osutatud teenuste ligikaudse
maksumusega ja vastavushindamise taotleja taotluse korral selgitama, kuidas tema
kehtestatud tasude suurus piirdub osutatud teenuste ligikaudse maksumusega;
b) tegema teabe vastavushindamise tasude kohta üldsusele kättesaadavaks ning
c) teise lepinguosalise taotlusel ja lisaks tehniliste kaubandustõkete lepingu artiklites 5.2.3, 5.2.4
ja 5.2.8 sätestatud kohustustele selgitama:
i) kuidas nõutav teave on vajalik vastavuse hindamiseks ja tasude määramiseks;
ii) kuidas lepinguosaline tagab, et nõutava teabe konfidentsiaalsus on tagatud viisil, mis
tagab õigustatud ärihuvide kaitse, ning
& /et 185
iii) milline on vastavushindamismenetluse läbiviimisega seotud kaebuste läbivaatamise
menetlus.
5. Kumbki lepinguosaline avaldab internetis, eelistatavalt ühel veebisaidil, järgmise teabe:
a) kõik menetlused, kriteeriumid ja muud tingimused, mille alusel ta võib otsustada, kas
vastavushindamisasutused on pädevad akrediteeringu, heakskiidu, määramise või muu
tunnustuse saamiseks, sealhulgas tunnustamiseks vastastikuse tunnustamise lepingu alusel,
kui see on kohaldatav, ning
b) nende asutuste loetelu, mille ta on heaks kiitnud, määranud või mida ta on muul viisil
tunnustanud sellist vastavushindamist tegema, ning asjakohane teave iga asutuse
heakskiitmise, määramise või muu tunnustamise ulatuse kohta.
6. Lepinguosaline võib esitada teisele lepinguosalisele põhjendatud taotluse alustada
läbirääkimisi, et sõlmida vastastikuse tunnustamise leping, mis käsitleb
vastavushindamismenetluste tulemuste vastastikust tunnustamist konkreetses sektoris. Kui teine
lepinguosaline keeldub sellistest läbirääkimistest, peab ta oma otsust põhjendama.
7. Artiklit 9.7 kohaldatakse mutatis mutandis vastavushindamismenetluste suhtes.
& /et 186
8. Kui lepinguosaline nõuab vastavushindamismenetlust, peab ta
a) valima vastavushindamismenetlused, mis on proportsionaalsed riskihindamise alusel kindlaks
määratud riskidega, ning
b) andma teisele lepinguosalisele taotluse korral teavet kriteeriumide kohta, mida kasutatakse
konkreetsete toodete vastavushindamismenetluses.
9. Kui lepinguosaline nõuab kolmanda isiku poolt läbiviidavat vastavushindamismenetlust ja ta
ei ole seda ülesannet usaldanud lõikes 4 osutatud konkreetsele valitsusasutusele, peab ta tegema
järgmist:
a) kasutama vastavushindamisasutuste kvalifitseerimiseks eelistatavalt akrediteerimismenetlust;
b) kasutama parimal viisil akrediteerimise ja vastavushindamise rahvusvahelisi standardeid,
samuti lepinguosaliste akrediteerimisasutusi kaasavaid rahvusvahelisi lepinguid, näiteks
rahvusvahelise laborite akrediteerimise koostööorganisatsiooni (ILAC) ja rahvusvahelise
akrediteerimisfoorumi (IAF) mehhanismide kaudu;
c) ühinema või vajaduse korral julgustama oma vastavushindamisasutusi ühinema toimivate
rahvusvaheliste lepingute või kokkulepetega vastavushindamistulemuste ühtlustamiseks või
heakskiitmise hõlbustamiseks;
& /et 187
d) tagama, et kui konkreetse toote või tootekomplekti jaoks on määratud rohkem kui üks
vastavushindamisasutus, on ettevõtjatel võimalik valida, kes neist vastavushindamismenetlust
läbi viib;
e) tagama, et akrediteerimisasutuste ja vastavushindamisasutuste vahel puudub huvide konflikt,
ning
f) lubama vastavushindamisasutustel tugineda katsetele või kontrollidele, mille
vastavushindamisasutused on seoses vastavushindamisega läbi viinud teise lepinguosalise
territooriumil. Käesolevat lõiget ei tõlgendata nii, et see keelab lepinguosalisel nõuda teise
lepinguosalise territooriumil asuvatelt vastavushindamisasutustelt samade nõuete täitmist,
mida peab täitma tema enda vastavushindamisasutus.
ARTIKKEL 9.6
Läbipaistvus
1. Kui kumbki lepinguosaline töötab välja tehnilisi norme ja vastavushindamismenetlusi, mis
võivad kaubandust märkimisväärselt mõjutada, peab ta kooskõlas oma asjaomaste normide ja
menetlustega ning ilma et see piiraks 28. peatüki „Hea reguleerimistava“ kohaldamist, tegema
järgmist (v.a juhul, kui tekivad või võivad tekkida ohutuse, tervise, keskkonnakaitse või riigi
julgeolekuga seotud kiireloomulised probleemid):
a) lubama teise lepinguosalise isikutel osaleda avalikes konsultatsioonides vähemalt sama
soodsatel tingimustel kui tema enda isikutel ning
& /et 188
b) avaldama konsultatsioonide tulemused ametlikul veebisaidil.
2. Kumbki lepinguosaline püüab rakendada meetodeid, et tagada tehniliste normide ja

elektroonilisi vahendeid ja üldsuse teavitamist või avalikke konsultatsioone.
3. Vajaduse korral soovitab kumbki lepinguosaline oma territooriumil asuvatel valitsusvälistel
asutustel, sealhulgas standardiorganisatsioonidel, järgida lõikeid 1 ja 2.
4. Kumbki lepinguosaline tagab, et kõik dokumendid, millega kehtestatakse tehniline norm või
vastavushindamismenetlus, sisaldavad piisavalt üksikasjalikku teavet, et huvitatud isikud ja teine
lepinguosaline saaksid asjakohaselt teavet selle kohta, kas ja kuidas see võib nende kaubandushuve
mõjutada.
5. Kumbki lepinguosaline avaldab internetis, eelistatavalt ühel veebisaidil või ametlikus
väljaandes, kõik ettepanekud uute või muudetud tehniliste normide ja vastavushindamismenetluste
kohta keskvalitsuse tasandil ja keskvalitsusest madalamal tasandil ning nende lõplikud versioonid,
millest lepinguosaline peab teatama või mille ta peab avaldama vastavalt tehniliste kaubandustõkete
lepingule26.
6. Kumbki lepinguosaline tagab, et tema vastuvõetud tehnilised normid ja
vastavushindamismenetlused avaldatakse veebisaidil tasuta.
26 Suurema selguse huvides tuleb märkida, et lepinguosaline võib seda kohustust täita, tagades,
et kavandatavad meetmed ja nende lõplikud versioonid avaldatakse WTO ametlikul
veebisaidil või on WTO ametliku veebisaidi kaudu muul viisil kättesaadavad.

võivad kaubandust märkimisväärselt mõjutada, vastavalt tehniliste kaubandustõkete lepingu
artiklis 2.9 või 5.6 sätestatud korrale.
9. Selleks et määrata kindlaks, kas kavandatav tehniline norm või vastavushindamismenetlus
võib kaubandust märkimisväärselt mõjutada ja kas sellest tuleb seega teatada vastavalt tehniliste
kaubandustõkete lepingu asjakohastele sätetele, mis on artikli 9.3 kohaselt inkorporeeritud
käesolevasse lepingusse, võtab lepinguosaline muu hulgas arvesse asjakohaseid otsuseid ja
soovitusi, mille WTO tehniliste kaubandustõkete komitee on alates 1. jaanuarist 1995 vastu võtnud,
nagu on osutatud artikli 9.4 lõikes 2.
10. Kumbki lepinguosaline annab teise lepinguosalise taotlusel teavet vastuvõetud või

märkuste esitamiseks, välja arvatud juhul, kui tekivad või võivad tekkida ohutuse, tervise,
keskkonnakaitse või riigi julgeolekuga seotud kiireloomulised probleemid. Lepinguosaline kaalub
teise lepinguosalise põhjendatud taotlusi märkuste esitamise tähtaja pikendamiseks. Kui
lepinguosalisel on võimalik pikendada märkuste esitamise tähtaega üle 60 päeva, näiteks
90 päevani, siis soovitatakse tal seda teha.
12. Kumbki lepinguosaline püüab jätta märkuste esitamise lõpptähtaja ja teatatud tehnilise normi
või vastavushindamismenetluse vastuvõtmise vahele piisavalt aega saadud märkuste
läbivaatamiseks ja neile vastuste koostamiseks.
13. Kui lepinguosaline saab teiselt lepinguosaliselt kirjalikke märkusi kavandatava tehnilise
normi või vastavushindamismenetluse kohta, peab ta tegema järgmist:
a) arutama teise lepinguosalise taotlusel kirjalikke märkusi oma pädeva reguleeriva asutuse
osavõtul ajal, mil neid märkusi saab arvesse võtta, ning

kohaselt teatatud kavandatud meedet käsitleva algse teatise lisana.
16. Kumbki lepinguosaline teeb hiljemalt sellise lõpliku tehnilise normi või
vastavushindamismenetluse avaldamise kuupäeval, mis võib kaubandust märkimisväärselt
mõjutada, internetis avalikult kättesaadavaks järgmise teabe:
a) selgitus nii eesmärkide kui ka selle kohta, kuidas need lõpliku tehnilise normi või
vastavushindamismenetluse abil saavutatakse, ning
b) artiklis 9.7 sätestatud mõjuhinnangu tulemused, kui see viiakse läbi vastavalt tema
eeskirjadele ja menetlustele.
17. Tehniliste kaubandustõkete lepingu artiklite 2.12 ja 5.9 kohaldamisel tähendab „mõistlik
ajavahemik“ tavaliselt vähemalt kuue kuu pikkust ajavahemikku, välja arvatud juhul, kui see oleks
õiguspärase eesmärgi saavutamiseks ebatõhus.

ARTIKKEL 9.7
Tehnilised normid
1. Kumbki lepinguosaline viib oma asjakohaste eeskirjade ja menetluste kohaselt läbi
kavandatavate tehniliste normide regulatiivse mõju hindamise.
2. Kumbki lepinguosaline hindab kavandatava tehnilise normi olemasolevaid regulatiivseid ja
mitteregulatiivseid alternatiive, mis võivad täita lepinguosalise õiguspärased eesmärgid, kooskõlas
tehniliste kaubandustõkete lepingu artikli 2 lõikega 2.
3. Kui lepinguosalise tehnilised normid ei põhine rahvusvahelistel standarditel, teeb
lepinguosaline teise lepinguosalise taotlusel kindlaks kõik olulised kõrvalekalded asjaomastest
rahvusvahelistest standarditest ja selgitab, miks neid standardeid ei peetud taotletud eesmärgi
saavutamiseks sobivaks või tõhusaks, ning esitab selle hinnangu aluseks olevad teaduslikud või
tehnilised tõendid.
4. Lisaks tehniliste kaubandustõkete lepingu artikli 2 lõikele 3 vaatab kumbki lepinguosaline
tehnilised normid läbi, et lähendada neid asjakohastele rahvusvahelistele standarditele. Kumbki
lepinguosaline võtab muu hulgas arvesse kõiki uusi arengusuundumusi asjaomastes
rahvusvahelistes standardites ja seda, kas endiselt esinevad asjaolud, mis on põhjustanud
kõrvalekaldeid mõnest asjakohasest rahvusvahelisest standardist.
& /et 193
ARTIKKEL 9.8
Regulatiivne koostöö
1. Lepinguosalised tunnistavad, et on olemas mitmesugused regulatiivse koostöö mehhanismid,
mis võivad aidata tehnilisi kaubandustõkkeid kõrvaldada või nende tekkimist vältida.
2. Lepinguosaline võib teha teisele lepinguosalisele ettepaneku sektoripõhiseks regulatiivseks
koostööks käesoleva peatükiga hõlmatud valdkondades. Ettepanekud edastatakse artikli 9.11

normide, standardite ja vastavushindamismenetluste ning metroloogia väljatöötamise,
rakendamise ja läbivaatamise tavasid.
Teine lepinguosaline kaalub ettepanekut nõuetekohaselt ja vastab sellele mõistliku aja jooksul.
& /et 194
3. Lepinguosalised soodustavad käesoleva peatükiga hõlmatud küsimustes koostööd oma
vastavate standardimise, vastavushindamise, akrediteerimise ja metroloogia eest vastutavate
organisatsioonide vahel, olenemata sellest, kas need organisatsioonid on avaliku või erasektori
organisatsioonid.
4. Käesolevat artiklit ei tõlgendata nii, et see kohustab lepinguosalist

rahvatervise või ohutuse huvides või eksportiva lepinguosalise geograafilise tähisega seotud
nõude tõttu, ning
f) püüdma aktsepteerida mittepüsivaid või eemaldatavaid etikette või märgistamise või
etikettimisega seotud asjakohase teabe esitamist pigem saatedokumentides kui tootele
füüsiliselt kinnitatud etikettidel, välja arvatud juhul, kui selline etikettimine on nõutav
rahvatervise või ohutuse huvides.

Üldpõhimõtted
Diskrimineerimiskeeld
1. Olenemata artikli 21.2 kohaldamisalast võib lepinguosalise ettevõtja, kes on seaduslikult
asutatud, omandatud või kelle kaubanduslik kohalolek on säilitatud teise lepinguosalise
territooriumil, osaleda selle teise lepinguosalise riigihangetes samadel tingimustel kui selle teise
lepinguosalise ettevõtjad, nagu on ette nähtud selle teise lepinguosalise õiguses.
& /et 370
2. Lepinguosaline ja tema hankeüksused kohtlevad iga käesoleva lepinguga hõlmatud hankega
seotud meetme puhul teise lepinguosalise kaupu ja teenuseid ning teise lepinguosalise tarnijaid, kes
selliseid kaupu ja teenuseid pakuvad, kohe ja tingimusteta vähemalt sama soodsalt, kui asjaomane
lepinguosaline (sealhulgas tema hankeüksused) kohtleb oma kaupu, teenuseid ja tarnijaid.
3. Käesoleva lepinguga hõlmatud hankega seotud meetmete puhul lepinguosalised ja nende
hankeüksused:
a) ei kohtle mõnda kohapealset tarnijat tema välismaise kuuluvuse või omandiõiguse määra
põhjal vähem soodsalt kui teisi kohapealseid tarnijaid või
b) ei diskrimineeri kohapealset tarnijat selle alusel, et kaup või teenus, mida see tarnija selle
konkreetse hanke jaoks pakub, pärineb teiselt lepinguosaliselt.
Elektrooniliste vahendite kasutamine
4. Kui hankeüksus korraldab käesoleva lepinguga hõlmatud hanke elektroonilisel teel, peab ta:
a) tagama, et hanke korraldamisel kasutatakse muu hulgas ka autentimiseks ja andmete
krüptimiseks IT-süsteeme ja tarkvara, mis on vabalt kättesaadavad ja muude vabalt
kättesaadavate IT-süsteemide ja tarkvaraga koostalitlusvõimelised;
& /et 371
b) rakendama mehhanisme, millega tagatakse osalemistaotluste ja pakkumuste terviklus,
sealhulgas fikseeritakse nende esitamise aeg ning välistatakse neile loata juurdepääs, ning
c) kasutama hankemenetlustes teadete ja hankedokumentide avaldamiseks ning võimalikult
suures ulatuses pakkumuste esitamiseks elektroonilisi teabe- ja sidevahendeid.
Hanke korraldamine
5. Hankeüksus korraldab käesoleva lepinguga hõlmatud hanke läbipaistval ja erapooletul viisil,
mis:
a) on kooskõlas käesoleva peatükiga, kasutades üht järgmistest hankeviisidest: avatud
pakkumismenetlus, valikpakkumismenetlus või piiratud pakkumismenetlus;
b) ennetab huvide konflikte ja korruptsiooni vastavalt asjaomase lepinguosalise õigusele.

Korruptsioonivastased meetmed
6. Kumbki lepinguosaline tagab, et ta on võtnud kasutusele asjakohased meetmed korruptsiooni
tõkestamiseks oma riigihangetes. Nende meetmete hulka kuuluvad menetlused, millega võetakse
lepinguosalise hangetes osalemise õigus kas tähtajatult või kindlaksmääratud ajavahemikuks
tarnijatelt, kelle puhul on selle lepinguosalise õigusasutused lõpliku otsusega kindlaks teinud, et nad
on osalenud pettuses või muus ebaseaduslikus tegevuses, mis on seotud riigihangetega selle
lepinguosalise territooriumil. Kumbki lepinguosaline tagab ka selle, et tal on kehtestatud
põhimõtted ja menetlused, millega hangetega seotud või neid mõjutavate isikute võimalik huvide
konflikt võimalikult suures ulatuses kõrvaldada või seda ohjata.
Päritolureeglid
7. Käesoleva peatükiga hõlmatud riigihanke puhul ei kohalda lepinguosaline teisest
lepinguosalisest imporditavate kaupade ega osutatavate teenuste suhtes päritolureegleid, mis
erinevad nendest päritolureeglitest, mida lepinguosaline kohaldab tavapärase kaubanduse raames
samade kaupade impordi või samade teenuste osutamise suhtes.
Eeliste andmisest keeldumine
8. Lepinguosaline võib keelduda käesoleva peatüki eeliste andmisest teise lepinguosalise
teenuseosutajale, kui ta on sellest eelnevalt teavitanud ja selles küsimuses konsulteerinud ning kui

ARTIKKEL 21.7
Osalemistingimused
1. Hankeüksus esitab hankes osalemiseks ainult need tingimused, mis on olulised tagamaks, et
tarnija vastab õiguslikult ja finantsiliselt hanke nõuetele ning on äriliselt ja tehniliselt suutlik
asjaomast hankelepingut täitma.
& /et 380
2. Osalemistingimuste kehtestamisel hankeüksus:
a) ei esita tingimust, et hankes osalemiseks peab tarnija olema eelnevalt sõlminud mõne
lepinguosalise hankeüksusega ühe või mitu lepingut;
b) võib nõuda varasemat tegevuskogemust, kui see on hanke tingimuste seisukohalt tähtis, ning

ARTIKKEL 21.8
Tarnijate kvalifitseerimine
Registreerimissüsteemid ja kvalifikatsioonimenetlused
1. Lepinguosaline ja tema hankeüksused võivad kasutada tarnijate registreerimise süsteemi,
mille kaudu huvitatud tarnijad peavad registreeruma ja esitama teatavat teavet. Sellisel juhul tagab
lepinguosaline, et huvitatud tarnijatel on elektrooniliste vahendite kaudu täielik juurdepääs
registreerimissüsteemi puudutavale teabele ja et nad võivad taotleda registreerimist igal ajal
süsteemi kehtivuse jooksul. Pädev asutus teatab neile mõistliku tähtaja jooksul taotluse rahuldamise
või tagasilükkamise otsusest. Taotluse tagasilükkamise korral tuleb otsust nõuetekohaselt
põhjendada.
2. Kumbki lepinguosaline tagab, et
a) tema hankeüksused teevad jõupingutusi, et minimeerida kvalifitseerimismenetluste erinevusi,
ning

osutatud teave.
5. Hankeüksus lubab konkreetses hankes osaleda kõigil kvalifitseeritud tarnijatel, välja arvatud
juhul, kui hankeüksus teatab kavandatava hanke teates, et hankes lubatakse osalema vaid piiratud
arv tarnijaid, ning esitab tarnijate arvu piiramise kriteeriumid. Pakkumiskutse adresseeritakse nii
mitmele tarnijale, nagu on vaja tõhusa konkurentsi tagamiseks.
6. Kui hankedokumente ei tehta alates lõikes 4 osutatud teate avaldamise kuupäevast avalikult
kättesaadavaks, tagab hankeüksus, et need tehakse kõikidele lõike 5 kohaselt väljavalitud
kvalifitseeritud tarnijatele kättesaadavaks samal ajal.

võtmiseks ning selleks, et saada kõik vajalikud loeteluga seotud dokumendid;
d) loetelu kehtivusaeg ja selle kehtivuse pikendamise või lõpetamise viis või kui kehtivusaega ei
esitata, siis märge selle kohta, millisel viisil teatatakse loetelu kasutamise lõpetamisest, ning
e) märge, et loetelu võib kasutada käesoleva peatükiga hõlmatud hanke puhul.
& /et 385
9. Kui korduvkasutatav loetelu kehtib kuni kolm aastat, võib hankeüksus lõikest 7 olenemata
avaldada lõikes 7 osutatud teate ainult üks kord, nimelt loetelu kehtivusaja alguses, tingimusel et
a) teates esitatakse loetelu kehtivusaeg ja teatatakse, et rohkem teateid ei avaldata, ning
b) teade avaldatakse elektrooniliselt ja see on kogu kehtivusaja jooksul pidevalt kättesaadav.
10. Hankeüksus lubab tarnijatel taotleda igal ajal enda kandmist korduvkasutatavasse loetelu ja
kannab kõik kvalifitseeritud tarnijad loetellu mõistlikult lühikese aja jooksul.
11. Kui tarnija, kes ei ole kantud korduvkasutatavasse loetellu, esitab korduvkasutataval loetelul
põhinevas hankes osalemise taotluse ja kõik nõutud dokumendid artikli 21.10 lõikes 2 sätestatud
ajavahemiku jooksul, peab hankeüksus taotlusega tutvuma. Hankeüksus ei jäta tarnijat
hankemenetlusest kõrvale selle tõttu, et hankeüksusel ei ole piisavalt aega taotlusega tutvuda, välja
arvatud erijuhul, kui hanke keerukusest tingituna ei suuda hankeüksus lõpetada taotlusega tutvumist
pakkumuste esitamiseks lubatud ajavahemiku jooksul.

Muudatused
12. Kui hankeüksus muudab enne lepingu sõlmimist kavandatava hanke teates või osalevatele
tarnijatele esitatud hankedokumentides sätestatud kriteeriume või nõudeid või kui ta muudab või
avaldab uuesti hanketeate või hankedokumendid, edastab ta kirjalikult kõik sellised muudatused või
muudetud või uuesti avaldatud teate või hankedokumendid:
a) kõikidele teabe muutmise või uuesti avaldamise ajal hankes osalevatele tarnijatele, kui nad on
hankeüksusele teada, kõikidel muudel juhtudel aga esitab muudatused samal viisil, kui ta
esitas algse teabe, ning

kiireloomulistel juhtudel, mida hankeüksus on nõuetekohaselt põhjendanud, ei saa sellist tähtaega
kasutada, võib seda lühendada kuni kümne päevani.
3. Välja arvatud lõigetes 4, 5, 7 ja 8 sätestatud juhtudel, kehtestab hankeüksus pakkumuste
esitamise tähtpäeva, mis ei ole varem kui 40 päeva pärast
a) kavandatava hanke teate avaldamise kuupäeva avatud pakkumismenetluse korral või
b) kuupäeva, mil hankeüksus teatab tarnijatele, et nad kutsutakse pakkumusi esitama, olenemata
sellest, kas kasutatakse korduvkasutatavat loetelu või mitte, valikpakkumismenetluse korral.

avaldamisest.
7. Hankeüksus võib kommertskaupade või -teenuste või nende mõlema ostmise korral
olenemata muudest käesoleva artikli sätetest lühendada lõike 3 kohast pakkumuste esitamise
tähtaega vähemalt 13 päevani, kui ta avaldab elektrooniliselt ühel ja samal ajal nii kavandatava
hanke teate kui ka hankedokumendid. Kui hankeüksus võimaldab lisaks teha kommertskaupade või
-teenuste pakkumusi elektrooniliselt, võib ta lühendada lõike 3 kohast tähtaega kuni kümne päevani.
& /et 396
8. Kui 21-A lisa „Euroopa Liidu käesoleva lepinguga hõlmatud hange“ või 21-B lisa „Mehhiko
käesoleva lepinguga hõlmatud hange“ B või C jao kohane hankeüksus on valinud kõik
kvalifitseeritud tarnijad või piiratud arvu kvalifitseeritud tarnijaid, võib pakkumuste esitamise
tähtaja kehtestada hankeüksuse ja valitud tarnijate vastastikusel kokkuleppel. Sellise kokkuleppe
puudumise korral peab tähtaeg olema vähemalt kümme päeva.
ARTIKKEL 21.11
Läbirääkimine
1. Lepinguosaline võib ette näha, et tema hankeüksused peavad tarnijatega läbirääkimisi, kui:
a) hankeüksus on vastavalt artikli 21.6 lõikele 2 nõutavas kavandatava hanke teates viidanud
oma kavatsusele pidada läbirääkimisi või
b) hindamisel ilmneb, et ükski pakkumus ei ole kavandatava hanke teates või
hankedokumentides sätestatud hindamiskriteeriumide kohaselt selgelt kõige soodsam.
& /et 397
2. Hankeüksus
a) tagab, et läbirääkimistel osalevate tarnijate kõrvalejätmine toimub kavandatava hanke teates
või hankedokumentides sätestatud hindamiskriteeriumide kohaselt, ning
b) määrab pärast läbirääkimiste lõppu allesjäänud osalevatele tarnijatele ühise tähtaja uute või
muudetud pakkumuste esitamiseks.
ARTIKKEL 21.12
Piiratud pakkumismenetlus
1. Tingimusel, et hankeüksus ei kasuta piiratud pakkumismenetlust konkurentsi vältimiseks
tarnijate vahel või viisil, millega diskrimineeritakse teise lepinguosalise tarnijaid või kaitstakse
omamaiseid tarnijaid, võib ta kasutada piiratud pakkumismenetlust ja otsustada mitte kohaldada
artikleid 21.6–21.8, artikli 21.9 lõikeid 8–12 ning artikleid 21.10, 21.11, 21.13 ja 21.14 järgmiste
asjaolude korral:
a) eeldusel, et hankedokumentide nõudeid ei ole oluliselt muudetud, kui:
i) ükski tarnija ei ole esitanud pakkumust ega osalemistaotlust;
& /et 398
ii) ei ole esitatud ühtki hankedokumentide olulistele nõuetele vastavat pakkumust;
iii) ükski tarnija ei vastanud osalemistingimustele või
iv) esitatud pakkumused kajastasid konkurentide kokkulepet;
b) kui kaupu või teenuseid saab tarnida üksnes konkreetne tarnija ja puuduvad mõistlikud
alternatiivsed või asenduskaubad või -teenused ühel järgmistest põhjustest:
i) hangitakse kunstiteost;
ii) patentide, autoriõiguste või muude ainuõiguste tõttu või
iii) konkurents puudub tehnilistel põhjustel;
c) kui esialgne tarnija tarnib lisaks selliseid kaupu või teenuseid, mis ei olnud esialgse hanke ese,
ning kui sellise tarnija vahetamine:
i) ei ole võimalik majanduslikel ja tehnilistel põhjustel, mis tulenevad näiteks
olemasolevate seadmete, tarkvara, teenuste või paigaldiste vahetatavus- ja
koostalitlusnõudest, ning
& /et 399
ii) põhjustaks hankeüksusele olulist ebamugavust või märkimisväärseid lisakulusid;
d) juhul kui kiireloomulise olukorra tõttu, mis on tingitud sündmustest, mida hankeüksus ei
võinud ette näha, ei ole avatud või valikpakkumismenetlust kasutades olnud võimalik saada
kaupu või teenuseid õigeks ajaks, ja ainult niivõrd, kui see on rangelt vajalik;
e) kaubaturult ostetavate kaupade korral;
f) kui hankeüksus hangib prototüüpi või esimest toodet või teenust, mis töötatakse välja tema
tellimusel teatava teadusuuringu, katsetuse, uurimise või uusarenduse raames ja asjakohase
lepingu alusel;
esimese toote või teenuse esialgne arendustöö võib hõlmata piiratud ulatuses tootmist või
teenuse osutamist, et võtta arvesse kohapealse katsetamise tulemusi ja tõendada, et kaup või
teenus sobib masstootmiseks või -tarnimiseks kooskõlas vastuvõetavate
kvaliteedistandarditega, kuid ei hõlma masstootmist või -tarnimist eesmärgiga saavutada
kaubanduslik tasuvus või katta teadus- ja arendustööde kulud;
& /et 400
g) ostude korral, mis tehakse üksnes lühiajaliselt kehtivatel eriti soodsatel tingimustel, mis
tulenevad erakorralisest realiseerimisest, näiteks likvideerimisest, pankrotivara haldamisest
või pankrotist, mitte aga tavaliste ostude korral tavapärastelt tarnijatelt, või
h) kui leping sõlmitakse ideekonkursi võitjaga, tingimusel et
i) konkursi korraldus vastas käesoleva peatüki põhimõtetele, eelkõige seoses kavandatava
hanke teate avaldamisega, ning
ii) konkursil osalejaid hindas sõltumatu komisjon eesmärgiga selgitada välja võitja, kellega
sõlmitakse leping.
2. Hankeüksus koostab iga lõike 1 alusel sõlmitud lepingu kohta kirjaliku aruande. Aruanne
sisaldab hankeüksuse nime, hangitud kaupade või teenuste maksumust ja laadi ning märkust
lõikes 1 kirjeldatud asjaolude ja tingimuste kohta, mis õigustavad piiratud pakkumismenetluse
kasutamist.
& /et 401
ARTIKKEL 21.13
Elektroonilised oksjonid
Kui hankeüksus kavatseb käesoleva lepinguga hõlmatud hanke korraldada elektroonilise oksjonina,
esitab ta igale osalejale enne elektroonilise oksjoni algust:
a) teabe automaatse hindamismeetodi kohta, mida kasutatakse oksjoni käigus automaatseks
pakkumuste pingerea koostamiseks ja muutmiseks, sealhulgas hankedokumentides sätestatud
hindamiskriteeriumidel põhineva matemaatilise valemi;
b) pakkumuse elementide esialgse hindamise tulemused, kui leping kavatsetakse sõlmida kõige
soodsama pakkumuse tegijaga, ning
c) muu olulise teabe oksjoni korraldamise kohta.
& /et 402
ARTIKKEL 21.14
Pakkumuste läbivaatamine ja lepingute sõlmimine
Pakkumuste läbivaatamine
1. Hankeüksus võtab pakkumused vastu, avab need ja vaatab need läbi nii, et hankemenetlus on
läbipaistev ja erapooletu ning säilib pakkumuste konfidentsiaalsus.
2. Kui hankeüksus pakub ühele tarnijale võimalust parandada pakkumuste avamise ja lepingu
sõlmimise otsustamise vahelisel ajal tahtmatud vormivead, tuleb tal sama võimalust pakkuda
kõikidele osalevatele tarnijatele.
Lepingute sõlmimine
3. Selleks et pakkumust saaks lepingu sõlmimise üle otsustamisel arvesse võtta, peab see olema
tehtud kirjalikult, vastama avamise ajal teadetes ja hankedokumentides sätestatud olulistele nõuetele
ja pärinema tarnijalt, kes vastab osalemistingimustele.
& /et 403
4. Välja arvatud juhul, kui hankeüksus jõuab järeldusele, et lepingu sõlmimine ei ole avalikes
huvides, sõlmib ta lepingu tarnijaga, kes hankeüksuse hinnangul on suuteline täitma
lepingutingimusi ja kes ainuüksi teadetes ja hankedokumentides sätestatud lepingutingimuste
kohaselt on esitanud:
a) soodsaima pakkumuse või
b) madalaima hinnaga pakkumuse, kui hind on ainus kriteerium.
5. Kui hankeüksusele esitatakse pakkumus, mille hind on teiste pakkumustega võrreldes tavatult
madal, võib ta kontrollida, kas tarnija vastab osalemistingimustele ja on suuteline lepingutingimusi
täitma.
6. Hankeüksus ei tee valikuid, ei tühista hanget ega muuda sõlmitud lepinguid viisil, mis ei ole
kooskõlas käesolevast peatükist tulenevate kohustustega.
7. Üldjuhul võib kumbki lepinguosaline sätestada võitja väljaselgitamise ja lepingu sõlmimise
vahelise ooteaja, et tagasilükatud pakkujatele jääks piisavalt aega lepingu sõlmimise otsuse
läbivaatamiseks ja vaidlustamiseks.
& /et 404
ARTIKKEL 21.15
Hanketeabe läbipaistvus
Tarnijatele esitatav teave
1. Hankeüksus teavitab osalevaid tarnijaid viivitamata ja tarnija taotluse korral kirjalikult sellest,
kelle ta on kuulutanud hanke võitjaks. Kooskõlas artikli 21.16 lõigetega 2 ja 3 esitab hankeüksus
tagasilükatud tarnija taotlusel talle selgituse, miks hankeüksus ei valinud tema pakkumust ja
millised olid võitnud tarnija pakkumuse suhtelised eelised.
Teabe avaldamine sõlmitud lepingu kohta
2. Hankeüksus avaldab teate 21-A lisa „Euroopa Liidu käesoleva lepinguga hõlmatud hange“
või 21-B lisa „Mehhiko käesoleva lepinguga hõlmatud hange“ I jaos loetletud asjakohases
elektroonilises või paberväljaandes hiljemalt 72 päeva jooksul pärast iga käesoleva peatükiga
hõlmatud lepingu sõlmimist. Kui hankeüksus avaldab teate üksnes elektroonilises väljaandes, peab
teave jääma mõistliku tähtaja jooksul vabalt kättesaadavaks. Teade sisaldab vähemalt järgmist
teavet:
a) hangitud kaupade või teenuste kirjeldus;
& /et 405
b) hankeüksuse nimi ja aadress;
c) eduka tarnija nimi ja aadress;
d) eduka pakkumuse maksumus või lepingu sõlmimisel arvesse võetud kõrgeima ja madalaima
hinnaga pakkumus;
e) lepingu sõlmimise kuupäev ning
f) kasutatud hankemeetod ja juhul, kui vastavalt artiklile 21.12 kasutati piiratud
pakkumismenetlust, siis selle kasutamist õigustavate asjaolude kirjeldus.
Dokumentide ja aruannete säilitamine ning elektrooniline jälgitavus
3. Hankeüksus säilitab vähemalt kolm aastat alates lepingu sõlmimisest:
a) dokumendid ja aruanded käesoleva lepinguga hõlmatud hankega seotud hankemenetluste ja
sõlmitud lepingute kohta, sealhulgas artikli 21.12 alusel nõutavad aruanded, ning
b) andmed, millega tagatakse käesoleva lepinguga hõlmatud hanke elektroonilisel korraldamisel
asjakohane jälgitavus.
& /et 406
Statistiliste andmete vahetus
4. Kumbki lepinguosaline kogub ja vahetab igal aastal statistilisi andmeid oma käesoleva
peatükiga hõlmatud hangete kohta65. Nendes statistilistes aruannetes esitatakse statistika asjaomase
lepinguosalise käesoleva peatükiga hõlmatud kõigi hankeüksuste sõlmitud lepingute hinnangulise
maksumuse kohta maailmas ja hankeüksuste kategooriate kaupa.
5. Kumbki lepinguosaline esitab kättesaadava statistika oma hankeüksuste ostetud toodete ja
teenuste päritoluriigi kohta. Sellise statistika võrreldavuse tagamiseks annab artikli 21.19 kohaselt
moodustatud riigihangete allkomitee juhiseid kasutatavate meetodite kohta. Kaubandusnõukogu
võib otsustada muuta lõikes 4 sätestatud nõudeid, et tagada käesoleva peatükiga hõlmatud hangete
tulemuslik järelevalve.
6. Kui lepinguosaline nõuab, et sõlmitud lepinguid käsitlevad teated tuleb lõike 2 kohaselt
avaldada elektrooniliselt, ja kui sellised teated on avalikkusele kättesaadavad ühe andmebaasi kaudu
vormis, mis võimaldab käesoleva peatükiga hõlmatud lepinguid analüüsida, võib lepinguosaline
riigihangete allkomiteele andmete edastamise asemel esitada lingi veebisaidile koos juhistega, mida
on vaja selliste andmete kättesaamiseks ja kasutamiseks.
65 Esimest korda vahetatakse teavet aasta pärast käesoleva lepingu jõustumist.
& /et 407
ARTIKKEL 21.16
Teabe avalikustamine
Teabe esitamine lepinguosalistele
1. Teise lepinguosalise taotluse korral annab lepinguosaline viivitamata teavet, mis võimaldab
kindlaks teha, kas käesoleva lepinguga hõlmatud hange korraldati õiglaselt, erapooletult ja
käesoleva peatüki kohaselt, sealhulgas teavet eduka pakkumuse näitajate ja suhteliste eeliste kohta.
Teabe saanud lepinguosaline ei avalda kõnealust teavet ühelegi tarnijale, kui see seaks ohtu
konkurentsi tulevastes hankemenetlustes, välja arvatud juhul, kui ta on saanud teabe esitanud
lepinguosalise nõusoleku.
Teabe avalikustamata jätmine
2. Olenemata käesoleva peatüki muudest sätetest ei anna lepinguosaline ega tema hankeüksused
konkreetsele tarnijale teavet, mis võib kahjustada tarnijatevahelist ausat konkurentsi.
3. Käesolevat peatükki ei tõlgendata nii, et lepinguosaline ja tema hankeüksused, ametiasutused
ja läbivaatavad organid peaksid avalikustama konfidentsiaalset teavet, kui selline avalikustamine
võiks:
a) kahjustada õiguskaitset;
& /et 408
b) kahjustada ausat konkurentsi tarnijate vahel;
c) kahjustada konkreetsete isikute õigustatud ärihuve, sealhulgas nende intellektuaalomandi
kaitset, või
d) olla muul viisil vastuolus avalike huvidega.
ARTIKKEL 21.17
Siseriiklik vaidlustusmenetlus
1. Kumbki lepinguosaline kehtestab õigeaegse, tulemusliku, läbipaistva ja mittediskrimineeriva
haldusliku või kohtuliku läbivaatamise korra, mille abil tarnija, kellel on või on olnud huvid seoses
käesoleva lepinguga hõlmatud hankega, võib vaidlustada:
a) käesoleva peatüki sätete rikkumise või
b) kui tarnijal ei ole lepinguosalise õiguse kohaselt õigust vaidlustada otseselt käesoleva peatüki
sätete rikkumist, siis nende meetmete eiramise, mille lepinguosaline on võtnud käesoleva
peatüki rakendamiseks.
Vaidlustamise kord on kirjalik ja see tehakse üldiselt kättesaadavaks.
& /et 409
2. Kui tarnija esitab seoses käesoleva lepinguga hõlmatud hankega, mille vastu tal on või on
olnud huvi, kaebuse lõikes 1 nimetatud rikkumise või eiramise kohta, kutsub lepinguosaline, kelle
hankeüksus käesoleva lepinguga hõlmatud hanget korraldab, hankeüksust ja tarnijat üles leidma
kaebusele lahendust konsultatsioonide teel. Hankeüksus vaatab sellised kaebused läbi erapooletult
ja õigel ajal ning nii, et see ei mõjuta tarnija osalemist käimasolevates ega tulevastes käesoleva
lepinguga hõlmatud hangetes ega tema õigust taotleda haldusliku või kohtuliku
läbivaatamismenetluse kaudu parandusmeetmete võtmist.
3. Igale tarnijale võimaldatakse vaidlustuse ettevalmistamiseks ja esitamiseks piisav aeg, mis ei
ole mingil juhul lühem kui kümme päeva alates hetkest, mil tarnija sai või oleks pidanud saama
teada vaidlustamise aluseks olevast asjaolust.
4. Selleks asutab või määrab kumbki lepinguosaline vähemalt ühe erapooletu haldus- või
õigusasutuse, mis on tema hankeüksusest sõltumatu ning mis võtab vastu ja vaatab läbi tarnijate
vaidlustusi seoses käesoleva lepinguga hõlmatud hangetega.
5. Kui vaidlustamise vaatab esimesena läbi muu kui lõikes 4 osutatud asutus, tagab
lepinguosaline, et tarnijal on võimalik algne otsus edasi kaevata erapooletule haldus- või
õigusasutusele, kes ei sõltu hankeüksusest, kelle hanget ta vaidlustab.
& /et 410
6. Kumbki lepinguosaline tagab, et kui läbivaatav asutus ei ole kohus, on võimalik tema otsus
kohtusse edasi kaevata või et kehtivad menetlused, millega tagatakse, et:
a) hankeüksus vastab vaidlustamisele kirjalikult ja esitab läbivaatavale asutusele kõik
asjakohased dokumendid;
b) menetlusosalistel on õigus ärakuulamisele enne, kui läbivaatav asutus teeb vaidluses otsuse;
c) menetlusosalistel on õigus võtta endale esindaja ja saatja;
d) menetlusosalistel on õigus osaleda kõikides menetlustoimingutes;
e) menetlusosalistel on õigus taotleda avalikku menetlust ja kutsuda tunnistajaid ning
f) läbivaatav asutus teeb otsuse või esitab soovituse viivitamata ja kirjalikult ning põhjendab iga
otsust või soovitust.
& /et 411
7. Kumbki lepinguosaline võtab vastu või jätab kehtima korra, millega nähakse ette ajutised
kiirmeetmed, et tarnijal oleks võimalik hankes edasi osaleda. Need ajutised meetmed võivad kaasa
tuua hankemenetluse peatamise. Selles korras võib olla ette nähtud, et selliste meetmete
kohaldamise üle otsustamisel võib arvesse võtta nende ülekaalukalt ebasoodsaid tagajärgi
asjakohastele huvidele, sealhulgas avalikele huvidele. Meetmete võtmata jätmist põhjendatakse
kirjalikult.
8. Kumbki lepinguosaline võtab vastu või jätab kehtima korra, millega nähakse ette
parandusmeetmed või tekkinud kahju hüvitamine, juhul kui läbivaatav asutus on teinud kindlaks, et
lõikes 1 osutatud rikkumine või eiramine on aset leidnud. Tekkinud kahju hüvitamine võib piirduda
kas pakkumuse ettevalmistus- või vaidlustamiskuludega või mõlemaga.

Muudatused
2. Kui lepinguosaline kavatseb muuta vastavalt 21-A lisa „Euroopa Liidu käesoleva lepinguga
hõlmatud hange“ või 21-B lisa „Mehhiko käesoleva lepinguga hõlmatud hange“, siis see
lepinguosaline:
a) teatab teisele lepinguosalisele sellest kirjalikult ning
b) esitab teates ettepaneku teha teise lepinguosalise jaoks sobivad kompenseerivad kohandused,
mis võimaldaksid säilitada hõlmavuse tasemel, mis on võrreldav muutmiseelse tasemega.
3. Olenemata lõike 2 punktist b ei pea lepinguosaline esitama kompenseerivaid kohandusi, kui
muudatus puudutab hankeüksust, kelle üle lepinguosalisel ei ole tegelikult enam kontrolli või mõju.
Valitsuse kontroll või mõju käesoleva lepinguga hõlmatud hanke üle, mida korraldab 21-A lisa
„Euroopa Liidu käesoleva lepinguga hõlmatud hange“ C jaoga või 21-B lisa „Mehhiko käesoleva
lepinguga hõlmatud hange“ B või C jao iga osariigi 2. alamnimekirjaga hõlmatud hankeüksus,
loetakse tegelikult kaotatuks, kui hankeüksus on avatud konkurentsile turgudel, millele juurdepääs
ei ole piiratud.
4. Teine lepinguosaline võib esitada lõike 2 kohaselt teatavaks tehtud kavandatava muudatuse
kohta vastuväiteid, kui ta vaidlustab, et:
a) lõike 2 punkti b alusel pakutav kohandus on piisav, et säilitada hõlmavus tasemel, mis on
võrreldav käesolevas peatükis ette nähtud olemasoleva tasemega;
& /et 413
b) muudatus on seotud hankeüksusega, kelle üle lepinguosaline on lõike 3 kohaselt tegelikult
kaotanud kontrolli või mõju.
Vastuväide tuleb esitada kirjalikult 45 päeva jooksul alates lõike 2 punktis a osutatud teate
saamisest või vastasel juhul loetakse, et lepinguosaline on kohanduse või muudatusega nõus,
sealhulgas 31. peatüki „Vaidluste lahendamine“ kohaldamisel.
Korrigeerimine
5. Järgmisi 21-A lisas „Euroopa Liidu käesoleva lepinguga hõlmatud hange“ või 21-B lisas
„Mehhiko käesoleva lepinguga hõlmatud hange“ tehtavaid muudatusi käsitatakse puhtformaalset
laadi korrigeerimisena, tingimusel et need ei mõjuta käesoleva peatükiga ette nähtud hõlmavust:
a) hankeüksuse nime muutmine;
b) 21-A lisa „Euroopa Liidu käesoleva lepinguga hõlmatud hange“ või 21-B lisa „Mehhiko

ETTEVÕTTED NING MÄÄRATUD MONOPOLID
ARTIKKEL 22.1
Mõisted
Käesolevas peatükis kasutatakse järgmisi mõisteid:
a) „kokkulepe“ – OECD raames välja töötatud kokkulepe riiklikult toetatavate
ekspordikrediitide kohta või OECD raames või väljaspool seda välja töötatud järgnev
kohustus, mille on vastu võtnud vähemalt 12 WTO asutajaliiget, kes on osalenud kokkuleppes
alates 1. jaanuarist 1979;
b) „äritegevus“ – tegevus, mille lõpptulemusena toodetakse kaupa või osutatakse teenust, mida
müüakse asjaomasel turul ettevõtja poolt pakkumis- ja nõudlustingimustega määratud koguses
ja hindadega ning mille eesmärk on kasumi teenimine66;
66 Suurema selguse huvides olgu märgitud, et see ei hõlma sellise ettevõtja tegevust, a) kes
tegutseb mittetulunduslikul alusel või b) kes tegutseb kulude katmise põhimõttel.
& /et 417
c) „ärilised kaalutlused“ – hind, kvaliteet, kättesaadavus, turustatavus, transport ja muud ostu-
või müügitingimused või muud asjaolud, mida asjaomasel tegevusalal või majandusharus
turumajanduse põhimõtete kohaselt tegutsev ettevõtja võtab tavaliselt arvesse äriotsuste
tegemisel;
d) „määrama“ – monopoli kehtestama või lubama või selle tegevusulatust laiendama, et hõlmata
veel mõni kaup või teenus;
e) „määratud monopol“ – avaliku või erasektori üksus, sealhulgas konsortsium või
valitsusasutus, mis on lepinguosalise territooriumil asjaomasel turul määratud teatava kauba
või teenuse ainutarnijaks või -ostjaks; ainuüksi asjaolu tõttu, et mingile üksusele on antud
ainuõigus intellektuaalomandile, ei loeta seda üksust veel monopoliks67;
f) „eri- või eelisõigustega ettevõte“ – avaliku või erasektori ettevõtja, sealhulgas tütarettevõtja,
millele lepinguosaline on andnud de jure või de facto eri- või eelisõigused; eri- või
eelisõigused tekivad, kui lepinguosaline määrab või piirab seda, mitmel ettevõtjal on luba
tarnida teatavat kaupa või osutada teatavat teenust selliste kriteeriumide alusel, mis ei ole
objektiivsed, proportsionaalsed ega mittediskrimineerivad, mõjutades seeläbi oluliselt teiste
ettevõtjate võimalusi tarnida sama kaupa või osutada sama teenust samas geograafilises
piirkonnas sisuliselt samaväärsetel tingimustel;
67 Suurema selguse huvides olgu märgitud, et käesolevat peatükki ei kohaldata loomulike
monopolide suhtes, välja arvatud juhul, kui need on määratud lõigu 1 punkti d tähenduses.
& /et 418
g) mõistetel „finantsasutus“ ja „finantsteenus“ on sama tähendus, nagu artiklis 18.1 „Mõisted“;
h) „teenus, mida osutatakse valitsuse ülesannete täitmisel“ – teenus, mida osutatakse valitsuse
ülesannete täitmisel, nagu see on määratletud GATSis ja asjakohasel juhul GATSi
finantsteenuseid käsitlevas lisas68;
i) „riigi osalusega ettevõte“ – ettevõte, mida omab või kontrollib lepinguosaline69.
ARTIKKEL 22.2
Volitatud asutus
Kui käesolevas lepingus ei ole sätestatud teisiti, tagab kumbki lepinguosaline, et kõik isikud,

lepinguosaline on siseriiklike õigusaktide alusel volitanud täitma regulatiiv-, haldus- või muid
valitsusfunktsioone, tegutsevad neid volitusi täites kooskõlas lepinguosaliste kohustustega, mis on
sätestatud käesolevas lepingus.
68 Suurema selguse huvides olgu märgitud, et teenuste hulka, mida osutatakse valitsuse
ülesannete täitmisel, kuuluvad lepinguosalise keskpanga, rahandusasutuse,
finantsregulatsiooni asutuse või kriisilahendusasutuse osutatavad teenused.

eelnenud järjestikusest eelarveaastast väiksem kui 200 miljonit eriarveldusühikut.
71 Suurema selguse huvides olgu märgitud, et a) mõistet „kriisilahendus“ tõlgendatakse vastavalt
selle lepinguosalise õigusele, kus finantsasutus või muu juriidiline isik on asutatud, b)
finantsasutus või muu juriidiline isik ei tegele äritegevusega, mis ei ole otseselt seotud selle

võrreldavate finantsteenuste puhul kommertsturul72;
b) nende finantsteenustega toetatakse erasektori investeeringuid väljaspool lepinguosalise
territooriumi, tingimusel et

punkti a alapunkti ii ja punkti b alapunkti ii eesmärkidel vajaduse korral tugineda
olemasolevatele tõenditele, et määrata kindlaks tingimused, mille alusel selliseid teenuseid
kommertsturul osutataks, ning b) punkti a alapunkti i ja punkti b alapunkti i eesmärkidega
seoses ei ole finantsteenuste osutamine ette nähtud kommertsrahastuse asendamiseks.

pakkuvate ülesannetega seoses ning need peaksid olema proportsionaalsed soovitud avaliku
poliitika eesmärkidega ja läbipaistvad.

Käesolevas peatükis kasutatakse järgmisi mõisteid:
a) „kaupade subsiidium“ – meede, mis vastab subsiidiumide ja tasakaalustusmeetmete lepingu
artiklis 1.1 sätestatud tingimustele ning on subsiidiumide ja tasakaalustusmeetmete lepingu
artiklile 2 vastavalt ja selle tähenduses eripärane;
b) „teenuste subsiidium“ – meede, mis hõlmab valitsuse või avalik-õiguslike asutuse rahalist
panust ning toob kasu ja on eripärane ettevõtjale või tööstusharule või ettevõtjate või
tööstusharude rühmale vastavalt subsiidiumide ja tasakaalustusmeetmete lepingu artiklile 2 ja
selle tähenduses80.
80 See määratlus ei mõjuta teenuste subsiidiumide mõiste määratluse teemal WTOs edaspidi
toimuvate arutelude tulemusi. Sõltuvalt nende arutelude käigust võib kaubandusnõukogu
võtta vastu otsuse käesolevat lepingut selles osas kohandada.

Üldpõhimõtted
Lepinguosalised tunnistavad, et subsiidiume võib anda, kui need on vajalikud avaliku poliitika
eesmärgi saavutamiseks. Samas tunnistavad lepinguosalised ka seda, et teatavad subsiidiumid
võivad kahjustada turgude nõuetekohast toimimist ning vähendada kaubanduse ja investeeringute
liberaliseerimisest tulenevat kasu. Lepinguosaline ei või põhimõtteliselt subsideerida kaupu
müüvaid või teenuseid osutavaid ettevõtjaid, kui see kahjustab või võib kahjustada kaubandust või
investeeringuid.

2. Käesolevat peatükki ei kohaldata subsiidiumide suhtes, mida antakse ettevõtjatele, kellele on
tehtud ülesandeks osutada teatavaid avalikku huvi pakkuvaid teenuseid, sealhulgas nendele, kellele
on nende ülesannetega seoses antud eri- või eelisõigused, sel määral kui sellised subsiidiumid
piirduvad summaga, mis on vajalik kõnealuse teenuse kulude katmiseks.
3. Käesolevat peatükki ei kohaldata põllumajanduskaupade subsiidiumide ega kala- ja

tehnilistest või funktsionaalsetest kaalutlustest. Eelkõige ei kaitsta tööstusdisainilahendust, kui see
seisneb toote välisomadustes, mida tuleb kindlasti täpselt sama kuju ja suurusega reprodutseerida,
selleks et toodet, milles tööstusdisainilahendus sisaldub või millel seda on kasutatud, saaks
mehaaniliselt ühendada teise tootega või paigutada selle sisse, ümber või külge nii, et kumbki toode
saaks täita oma otstarvet.
3. Erandina lõikest 2 võib tööstusdisainilahenduse õigus seisneda tööstusdisainilahenduses,
mille eesmärk on võimaldada mitme vastastikku vahetatava toote kokkupanemist või ühendamist
moodulsüsteemi raames.

Tööstusdisainilahendus on alates kuupäevast, mil see loodi või mis tahes kujul fikseeriti,
kaitsekõlblik ka asjaomase lepinguosalise autoriõiguse normide alusel. Kumbki lepinguosaline
määrab sellise autoriõiguse kaitse ulatuse ja andmise tingimused, sealhulgas nõutava algupärasuse
taseme.

Geograafilised tähised
ARTIKKEL 25.29
Mõisted
Käesolevas alajaos kasutatakse järgmisi mõisteid:
a) „geograafiline tähis“ – tähis, mis näitab, et kaup on pärit lepinguosalise territooriumilt või
selle territooriumi teatavast piirkonnast või paikkonnast, kui kauba teatav omadus, maine või
muu iseloomulik tunnus on olulisel määral seostatav kauba geograafilise päritoluga, ning
b) „tooteklass“ – Nizza klassifikatsiooni klasside loetellu kuuluv klass.

ARTIKKEL 25.30
Rahvusvahelised lepingud
Lepinguosalised kinnitavad oma kohustust kaitsta oma territooriumil geograafilisi tähiseid vastavalt
TRIPS-lepingu artiklitele 22, 23 ja 24.
Kumbki lepinguosaline teeb kõik mõistlikud jõupingutused, et järgida 20. mail 2015. aastal Genfis
vastu võetud päritolunimetuste kaitset ja nende rahvusvahelist registreerimist käsitleva Lissaboni
kokkuleppe Genfi redaktsiooni.
ARTIKKEL 25.31
Kohaldamisala
1. Käesolevat alajagu kohaldatakse selliste geograafiliste tähiste tunnustamise ja kaitse suhtes,
millega identifitseeritakse asjakohasesse tooteklassi kuuluvad kaubad ja mis on loetletud 25-B lisas
„Geograafiliste tähiste loetelu“.

2. Lepinguosalised kaaluvad käesoleva alajaoga hõlmatud geograafilistele tähiste kohaldamisala
laiendamist ka muude tooteklasside geograafilistele tähistele peale toiduainete ja
põllumajandustoodete. Sellel põhjusel on lepinguosalised lisanud 25-C lisasse „Mehhiko
geograafilised tähised vastavalt artikli 25.31 lõikele 2“ nimetused, millega identifitseeritakse nende
territooriumilt pärit ja seal kaitstavad tooted, mille lisamist käesoleva lepinguga ettenähtud kaitse
kohaldamisalasse kaalutakse käesoleva lepinguga ettenähtud kaitse kohaldamisala laiendamise
korral, kui käesolevas alajaos sätestatud menetlused on lõpule viidud103.
ARTIKKEL 25.32
Loetletud geograafilised tähised
Käesolevas alajaos on:
a) 25-B lisa „Geograafiliste tähiste loetelu“ A osas loetletud tähiste puhul tegemist geograafiliste
tähistega, mis näitavad, et toode on pärit Euroopa Liidu territooriumilt või selle territooriumi
piirkonnast või paikkonnast, ning
103 Lepinguosalised tunnistavad, et kaubamärgitaotluste hindamisega seoses on need nimetused
kaitstud päritoluriigis, niivõrd kui see on lepinguosalise õiguse alusel asjakohane.

ARTIKKEL 25.34
25-B lisas „Geograafiliste tähiste loetelu“ loetletud
geograafiliste tähiste kaitse
1. Kumbki lepinguosaline näeb ette õiguslikud abinõud, mis võimaldavad huvitatud isikutel
takistada:
a) teise lepinguosalise 25-B lisas „Geograafiliste tähiste loetelu“104 loetletud geograafilise tähise
kasutamist kauba puhul, mis kuulub selle geograafilise tähise jaoks sätestatud tooteklassi ja
mis:
i) ei pärine 25-B lisas „Geograafiliste tähiste loetelu“ selle geograafilise tähise jaoks
sätestatud päritoluriigist või
ii) pärineb 25-B lisas „Geograafiliste tähiste loetelu“ selle geograafilise tähise jaoks
sätestatud päritoluriigist, kuid seda ei toodetud ega valmistatud kooskõlas teise
lepinguosalise õigusnormidega, mida kohaldataks juhul, kui kaup oleks ette nähtud
tarbimiseks teise lepinguosalise territooriumil;
104 Seoses 25-B lisas „Geograafiliste tähiste loetelu“ esitatud geograafiliste tähiste loeteluga ei
hõlma käesoleva artikli kohane kaitse liites 25-B-1 „Üksiksõnad geograafilise liittähise
osana“ sätestatud geograafilise tähise liitnimetusse kuuluvaid üksiksõnu.
& /et 486
b) kõigi selliste kauba tähistamise või tutvustamise viiside kasutamist, mis näitavad või lubavad
oletada, et kõnealune kaup pärineb mujalt kui sellest geograafilisest piirkonnast, kust see
tegelikult pärit on, eksitades üldsust kauba geograafilise päritolu suhtes, ning
c) muu kasutamise eest, mille puhul on tegemist kõlvatu konkurentsiga Pariisi konventsiooni
artikli 10bis tähenduses.
2. Kumbki lepinguosaline annab lõike 1 punktis a nimetatud kaitse ka siis, kui on märgitud
kauba tegelik geograafiline päritolu või geograafilist tähist kasutatakse tõlkes või nimetusele
lisatakse sellised väljendid nagu „liik“, „tüüp“, „stiil“, „imitatsioon“ või muu sarnane väljend.
3. Kumbki lepinguosaline näeb haldusmeetmetega ja oma õigusaktides sätestatud vormis ette
õiguskaitse järgmise vastu:
a) kaitstud nimetuse otsene või kaudne kaubanduslikul eesmärgil kasutamine;
b) kaitstud nimetuse võltsimine, muutmine või petlik kasutamine;
c) vale või eksitav viitamine kaitstud nimetusele või
d) tegevus, mis võib jätta tarbijale vale mulje kauba tegeliku päritolu, lähtekoha ja laadi kohta.

4. Käesoleva alajao alusel kaitstavad geograafilised tähised ei muutu lepinguosaliste
territooriumil üldmõisteteks.
5. Vastavalt käesolevale alajaole ei ole lepinguosalisel kohustust kaitsta teise lepinguosalise
geograafilist tähist, mida ei kaitsta või mille kaitsmine on lõpetatud selle lepinguosalise
territooriumil, kust see on pärit. Lepinguosalised teavitavad üksteist, kui geograafilist tähist nende
territooriumil enam ei kaitsta. Teavitada tuleb kolme kuu jooksul pärast seda, kui pädev asutus on
teinud lõpliku otsuse, et geograafilist tähist enam ei kaitsta.
6. Käesoleva artikli sätteid kohaldatakse mutatis mutandis 27. mail 1997. aastal Brüsselis
sõlmitud Euroopa Ühenduse ja Mehhiko Ühendriikide vahelise piiritusjookide nimetuste
vastastikuse tunnustamise ja kaitse kokkuleppe (edaspidi „piiritusjookide kokkulepe“) I ja II lisas
esitatud nimetuste loetelu suhtes.
ARTIKKEL 25.35
Geograafiliste tähiste loetelu muutmine
1. Kaubandusnõukogu võib kooskõlas artikliga 25.42 otsustada muuta 25-B lisa „Geograafiliste
tähiste loetelu“, lisades või parandades geograafilisi tähiseid või jättes välja geograafilised tähised,
mida nende päritolukohas enam ei kaitsta või ei kasutata. Need otsused valmistab ette
intellektuaalomandi allkomitee.

2. Uued geograafilised tähised lisatakse kaubandusnõukogu otsusega pärast seda, kui esitatud
nimetused on läbi vaadatud ja artiklis 25.33 osutatud vastuväitemenetlus on lõpule viidud.
3. Kaubandusnõukogu võib uute geograafiliste tähiste puhul oma otsusega muuta piiritusjookide
kokkuleppe I ja II lisa artiklis 25.33 sätestatud korras.
ARTIKKEL 25.36
Geograafiliste tähiste kasutamise õigus
1. Käesoleva alajao alusel kaitstavat geograafilist tähist võib kasutada iga ettevõtja, kes turustab
asjakohasele tehnilisele kirjeldusele vastavat kaupa.
2. Kui geograafiline tähis on käesoleva alajao kohaselt kaitstud, ei saa selle kaitstud
geograafilise tähise kasutamise eeltingimuseks kehtestada kasutaja registreerimist või muid
nõudeid.
3. Geograafilisele tähisele viitavaid tähiseid, lühendeid ja sümboleid tohib kasutada ainult
vastaval territooriumil kaitstud või registreeritud kauba puhul, mis on toodetud vastava tehnilise
kirjelduse kohaselt.

ARTIKKEL 25.37
Kaubamärkide ja geograafiliste tähiste seos
1. Käesolev alajagu ei mõjuta õigusi, mis on lepinguosalise territooriumil antud varasema
kaubamärgiga, mida taotleti või mis registreeriti heas usus, või mis omandati heauskse kasutamise
kaudu. Kaubamärgiga antud õiguste suhtes kehtib piiratud erand, et teatavatel juhtudel ei pruugi
varasem kaubamärk anda selle omanikule õigust takistada registreeritud geograafilisele tähisele
kaitse andmist või selle kasutamist selle lepinguosalise territooriumil, kus kaubamärki taotletakse,
kus see registreeritakse või kus seda kasutatakse. Registreeritud geograafilise tähise kaitse ei piira
mingil muul viisil selle kaubamärgiga antud õigusi, sealhulgas võimalust taotleda tunnuse
uuendamist või muutmist, tingimusel et muudatus ei kujuta endast kõlvatut konkurentsi.
2. Lepinguosaline ei ole artikli 25.34 alusel kohustatud kaitsma geograafilise tähisena nimetust,
kui asjaomane nimetus eksitab tõenäoliselt tarbijat kauba tegeliku olemuse osas, võttes arvesse
kaubamärgi mainet ja tuntust ning kasutamise aega.
3. 25-B lisas „Geograafiliste tähiste loetelu“ loetletud geograafiliste tähiste puhul, mida nende
päritolukoha lepinguosaline kaitseb jätkuvalt geograafiliste tähistena, keeldub lepinguosaline
kaubamärgi registreerimisest või tunnistab selle kehtetuks ex officio vastavalt artiklile 25.39 ja
TRIPS-lepingu artikli 22 lõikele 3, kui seda lubab tema õigus või taotleb huvitatud isik, tingimusel
et:
a) kaubamärgi registreerimine oleks vastuolus artikliga 25.34;

b) kaubamärk on seotud sama või sarnase kaubaga;
c) kaubamärk on seotud kaubaga, millel ei ole asjaomase geograafilise tähise päritolu, ning
d) kaubamärgi registreerimise taotlus esitatakse pärast asjaomase lepinguosalise territooriumil
geograafilise tähise kaitse taotluse esitamise kuupäeva.
4. Artiklis 25.32 nimetatud geograafiliste tähiste puhul on lõike 3 punktis d nimetatud
kaitsetaotluse esitamise kuupäev käesoleva lepingu sõlmimise kuupäev.
5. Artiklis 25.35 nimetatud geograafiliste tähiste puhul on kaitsetaotluse esitamise kuupäev
vastuväitemenetluses geograafilise tähise avaldamise kuupäev.
6. 25-B lisas „Geograafiliste tähiste loetelu“ loetletud geograafiliste tähiste kaitse ei alga enne
käesoleva lepingu jõustumise kuupäeva.

Kaitse tagamine
Kumbki lepinguosaline tagab artiklites 25.34–25.37 sätestatud kaitse asjakohaste haldus- või
kohtumenetlustega vastavalt oma õigusele ja tavadele. Pädevad asutused tagavad selle kaitse ühel
või mõlemal järgmistest viisidest:
a) omal algatusel või
b) huvitatud isiku taotlusel.
ARTIKKEL 25.39
Üldnormid
1. Lepinguosaliselt ei saa käesoleva alajao alusel nõuda, et ta kaitseks geograafilise tähisena
nimetust, mis on vastuolus taimesordi või loomatõu nimetusega ning mis seetõttu tõenäoliselt
eksitab tarbijat kauba tegeliku päritolu osas.
& /et 492
2. Homonüümset nimetust, mis tõenäoliselt tekitab tarbijas eksliku arvamuse, et kaup on pärit
muult territooriumilt, ei registreerita geograafilise tähisena, isegi kui nimetus on kauba tegeliku
päritoluterritooriumi, -piirkonna või -koha osas täpne. Ilma et see piiraks TRIPS-lepingu artikli 23
kohaldamist, määravad lepinguosalised ühiselt kindlaks otstarbekohased tingimused, mille alusel
täielikult või osaliselt homonüümseid geograafilisi tähiseid üksteisest eristada, võttes arvesse
vajadust tagada asjaomaste tootjate õiglane kohtlemine ning hoiduda tarbijate eksitamisest.
3. Kui üks lepinguosaline teeb kolmanda riigiga peetavate kahepoolsete läbirääkimiste raames
ettepaneku kõnealuse kolmanda riigi geograafilise tähise kaitsmiseks ning see nimetus on täielikult
või osaliselt homonüümne teise lepinguosalise geograafilise tähisega, teatab ta sellest teisele
lepinguosalisele ja annab talle võimaluse esitada märkusi enne selle nimetuse kaitse alla võtmist.
4. Käesolevas alajaos nimetatud tehnilise kirjelduse, sealhulgas selle muudatused, kiidavad
heaks selle lepinguosalise ametiasutused, kelle territooriumilt kaup pärineb.

ARTIKKEL 25.40
Erandid
1. Ükski käesoleva alajao säte ei kohusta lepinguosalist kohaldama selle sätteid teise
lepinguosalise geograafilise tähise või mitmeosalises geograafilises tähises sisalduva üksiknimetuse

lepinguosalise territooriumil tavalises keelepruugis asjaomaste kaupade või teenuste üldnimetusena
kasutatava terminiga.
2. Kui geograafilise tähise tõlge on identne lepinguosalise territooriumil tavalises keelepruugis
kauba üldnimetusena kasutatava terminiga või sisaldab seda või kui geograafiline tähis ei ole
identne, kuid sisaldab sellist terminit, ei piira käesolev alajagu ühegi isiku õigust kasutada seda
terminit seoses kõnealuse kaubaga selle lepinguosalise territooriumil.
3. Selle kindlakstegemisel, kas termin on lepinguosalise territooriumil tavalises keelepruugis
kauba üldnimetusena kasutatav termin, on selle lepinguosalise ametiasutustel õigus võtta arvesse
seda, kuidas tarbijad seda terminit tema territooriumil mõistavad. Tarbijate arusaama
kindlaksmääramisel võivad asjakohasteks teguriteks olla:
a) usaldusväärsetest allikatest, näiteks sõnastikest, ajalehtedest ja asjakohastelt veebisaitidelt
saadud tõendid selle kohta, kas terminit kasutatakse kõnealusele kaubale viitamisel, ning
& /et 494
b) kuidas selle terminiga tähistatavat kaupa turustatakse ja kasutatakse selle lepinguosalise
territooriumil toimuvas kaubanduses105.
4. Ükski käesoleva alajao säte ei takista kasutamast lepinguosalise territooriumil kaubaga seoses
taimesordi või loomatõu tavanimetust, mis on olemas selle lepinguosalise territooriumil käesoleva
lepingu jõustumise kuupäeval.
5. Ükski käesoleva lepingu säte ei piira ühegi isiku õigust kasutada äritegevuses enda või oma
ärialase eelkäija nime, välja arvatud juhul, kui sellist nime kasutatakse üldsust eksitaval viisil.

ARTIKKEL 25.45
Patendid ja rahvatervis
1. Käesolevas alajaos sätestatud õigused ja kohustused ei takista lepinguosalist võtmast

Täiendav kaitse ravimi, sealhulgas bioloogilise ravimi
müügiloa andmise viivituse korral108
1. Lepinguosalised tunnistavad, et ravimite, sealhulgas bioloogiliste ravimite109 suhtes, mida
nende asjaomasel territooriumil kaitstakse patendiga, võidakse kohaldada enne turule laskmist
halduslikku loamenetlust110. Nad tunnistavad, et patendiga antava tõhusa kaitse periood võib
lüheneda selle ajavahemiku võrra, mis jääb patenditaotluse esitamise ja toote vastavale turule
laskmise loa andmise vahele, mis on määratletud lepinguosalise asjakohaste õigusaktide alusel.
108 Mehhiko täidab käesolevas artiklis sätestatud kohustused hiljemalt kahe aasta jooksul pärast
käesoleva lepingu jõustumist.
109 Kumbki lepinguosaline määrab kindlaks, millised tooted kuuluvad mõistete „ravimid“ ja
„bioloogilised ravimid“ alla vastavalt tema 21. aprillil 2018. aastal kehtinud õigusaktidele.
110 Suurema selguse huvides olgu märgitud, et mõiste „marketing approval“ (müügiloa andmine)
on samaväärne mõistega „marketing authorisation“.
& /et 499
2. Kumbki lepinguosaline näeb ette piisava ja tõhusa mehhanismi, millega hüvitada
patendiomanikule patendi tegeliku eluea vähenemine, mis tuleneb põhjendamatutest viivitustest111
esimese müügiloa andmisel tema territooriumil. Selline hüvitis antakse täiendava sui generis kaitse
vormis, mis on võrdne ajaga, mille võrra joonealuses märkuses osutatud kaheaastane ajavahemik on
ületatud. Sellise täiendava kaitse kestus ei ületa viit aastat112.
3. Lepinguosaline võib alternatiivina lõikele 2 lubada pikendada patendikaitsega antavate
õiguste kehtivusaega kuni viis aastat,113 et hüvitada patendiomanikule patendi tegeliku kehtivusaja
lühenemine, mis tuleneb müügiloa andmise menetlusest. Patendikaitsega antavate õiguste
kehtivusaja pikendamine hakkab kehtima patendi seadusega ette nähtud tähtaja lõppemisel
ajavahemikuks, mis vastab patenditaotluse esitamise kuupäeva ja toote selle lepinguosalise turule
lubamiseks esmase müügiloa väljaandmise kuupäeva vahelisele ajale, mida vähendatakse viie aasta
võrra.
111 Käesoleva artikli kohaldamisel hõlmab põhjendamatu viivitus vähemalt seda, kui taotlejale
esmase vastuse andmisega viivitatakse pärast müügiloa taotluse esitamist rohkem kui kaks
aastat. Viivituse kestuse kindlakstegemisel ei pea arvesse võtma müügiloa andmise käigus
tekkinud viivitusi, mille on tinginud taotleja, ega ajavahemikku, mille üle müügiluba andval
asutusel puudub kontroll.
112 Kui lepinguosaline järgib käesolevat lõiget, ei ole see lepinguosaline kohustatud järgima
lõikes 3 sätestatud alternatiivi.
113 Seda ajavahemikku on võimalik ravimite puhul kuue kuu võrra pikendada, kui on tehtud
pediaatrilised uuringud ja nende uuringute tulemused kajastuvad tootekirjelduses.

tingimused ja piirangud eeldusel, et lepinguosaline jätkab käesoleva artikli täitmist.
5. Kumbki lepinguosaline teeb kõik endast oleneva, et menetleda ravimite müügiloa taotlusi
tõhusalt ja õigel ajal, et vältida põhjendamatuid või tarbetuid viivitusi. Põhjendamatute viivituste

1. Kui vaidlus on seotud meetmega, mis on väidetavalt vastuolus käesoleva lepingu kohase
kohustusega ja sisuliselt samaväärse kohustusega, mis tuleneb muust rahvusvahelisest lepingust,
mille osalised on mõlemad lepinguosalised, sealhulgas WTO asutamislepingust, valib õiguskaitset
taotlev lepinguosaline organi, kus vaidlus lahendada.
2. Kui lepinguosaline on algatanud vaidluse lahendamise menetluse vastavalt käesolevale jaole
või muule rahvusvahelisele lepingule, ei algata see lepinguosaline lõikes 1 nimetatud meetmega
seoses vaidluse lahendamise menetlust üheski muus organis, välja arvatud juhul, kui esimesena
valitud vaidluse lahendamise organ ei saa menetluslikel või kohtualluvuslikel põhjustel otsust teha.
3. Käesoleva artikli kohaldamisel kehtib järgmine:
a) käesoleva jao kohane vaidluste lahendamise menetlus loetakse algatatuks lepinguosalise
taotlusega moodustada artikli 31.6 kohane vahekohus;
b) WTO asutamislepingu kohane vaidluste lahendamise menetlus loetakse algatatuks
lepinguosalise taotlusega moodustada vaidluste lahendamise käsitusleppe artikli 6 kohane

mille osalised mõlemad lepinguosalised on. WTO asutamislepingut ega ühtegi muud
lepinguosalistevahelist rahvusvahelist lepingut ei kasutata selleks, et takistada lepinguosalist
peatamast kohustuste täitmist vastavalt käesolevale lepingule.

konfidentsiaalsena.
2. Vahekohtu istungid on avalikud, kui lepinguosalised ei ole teisiti kokku leppinud.
ARTIKKEL 31.22
Vahekohtu töö peatamine ja lõpetamine
1. Kui vahekohus saab mõlemalt lepinguosaliselt taotluse, peatab ta oma töö lepinguosaliste
vahel kokku lepitud tähtajaks, kuid mitte kauemaks kui 12 järjestikuseks kuuks. Vahekohus jätkab
oma tööd mõlema lepinguosalise kirjalikul taotlusel enne peatamisperioodi lõppu või ühe
lepinguosalise kirjalikul taotlusel peatamisperioodi viimasel päeval. Taotluse esitanud
lepinguosaline teavitab oma taotlusest teist lepinguosalist.
& /et 611
2. Kui kumbki lepinguosaline ei taotle enne peatamisperioodi lõppu vahekohtu töö jätkamist,
siis vahekohtu pädevus aegub ja vaidluste lahendamise menetlused lõpetatakse. See ei piira
lepinguosalise õigust algatada samas küsimuses uus menetlus.

aruandeid ja teha otsuseid konsensuse alusel. Kui see ei ole võimalik, otsustab vahekohus küsimuse
häälteenamusega. Individuaalsete vahekohtunike arvamusi ei avalikustata ühelgi juhul.
2. Lepinguosalised aktsepteerivad vahekohtu otsuseid ja aruandeid tingimusteta. Vahekohtu
aruannete ja otsustega ei looda füüsilistele ja juriidilistele isikutele õigusi ega kohustusi.
3. Kumbki lepinguosaline teeb vahekohtu aruanded ja otsused üldsusele kättesaadavaks
võimalikult kiiresti pärast nende lepinguosalistele edastamise kuupäeva, rakendades

ANNEX 3-A
PRODUCT SPECIFIC RULES OF ORIGIN
SECTION A
INTRODUCTORY NOTES
Note 1
General Principles
1.1 This Section sets out the rules for the application of the conditions in Sections B and C of this
Annex as provided for in subparagraph 1(c) of Article 3.2 (General Requirements).
1.2 For the purposes of this Annex, the requirements for a product to be considered as originating
in accordance with subparagraph 1(c) of Article 3.2 (General Requirements) are a change in tariff
classification, a production process, a maximum value or weight of non-originating materials or any
other requirement specified in this Annex.
1.3 Reference to weight in a product specific rule of origin means the net weight, which is the
weight of a material or a product not including the weight of packaging.
& /en 1
Note 2
Structure of the List of Product Specific Rules of Origin
2.1 Notes on sections, chapters, headings or subheadings, if applicable, shall be read in
conjunction with the product specific rules of origin for the relevant section, chapter, heading or
subheading.
2.2 Each product specific rule of origin set out in the second column of the list of Section B
applies to the corresponding product indicated in the first column of that list.
2.3 If a product is subject to alternative product specific rules of origin, the product shall be
considered as originating in a Party if it satisfies one of the alternatives.
2.4 If a product is subject to a product specific rule of origin that includes multiple requirements,
the product shall be considered as originating in a Party only if it satisfies all of the requirements.
2.5 If a product specific rule of origin specifically excludes certain materials of the Harmonized
System, it requires that the excluded materials be originating in a Party.
Example: When the rule of origin for heading 3505 requires "CTH except from
heading 1108" then, materials classified under heading 1108 (starches, inulin) must be
originating.
& /en 2
Note 3
Application of the Product Specific Rules of Origin
3.1 Paragraph 2 of Article 3.2 (General Requirements), concerning products having acquired
originating status which are used in the production of other products, applies whether or not this
status has been acquired inside the same factory in a Party where these products are used.
3.2 If a product specific rule of origin provides that a specified non-originating material shall not
be used or that the value or weight of a specified non-originating material shall not exceed a
specific threshold, these conditions do not apply to non-originating materials classified elsewhere in
the Harmonized System.
Example: When the rule for Chapter 19 requires that "that the total weight of non-originating
materials of headings 1006, 1101, 1102 or 1104 to 1108 used does not exceed 20 % by weight
of the final product", the use of non-originating cereals of Chapter 10, other than rice of
heading 1006, is not limited.
3.3 If a product-specific rule of origin provides that a product shall be produced from a particular
material, this does not prevent the use of other materials which are unable to satisfy that rule
because of their inherent nature.
& /en 3
Note 4
Definitions
4.1 For the purposes of this Annex:
(a) "CC" means production from non-originating materials of any chapter, except that of the
product, or a change to the chapter, heading or subheading from any other chapter so that all
non-originating materials used in the production of the product must undergo a change in
tariff classification at the two-digit level of the Harmonized System (a change in chapter);
(b) "CTH" means production from non-originating materials of any heading, except that of the
product, or a change to the chapter, heading or subheading from any other heading so that all
non-originating materials used in the production of the product undergo a change in tariff
classification at the four-digit level of the Harmonized System (a change in heading);

Note 5
Fibres, Printing, Basic Textile Materials and Tolerances
5.1 The term "natural fibres" is used in this Annex to refer to fibres other than artificial or
synthetic fibres and is limited to the stages before spinning takes place, including waste, and, unless
otherwise specified, includes fibres that have been carded, combed or otherwise processed, but not
spun.
5.2 Natural fibres include horsehair of heading 0511, silk of headings 5002 and 5003 as well as
wool fibres, fine or coarse animal hair of headings 5101 to 5105, cotton fibres of headings 5201
to 5203 and other vegetable fibres of headings 5301 to 5305.
5.3 The terms "textile pulp", "chemical materials" and "paper-making materials" are used in the
list of product specific rules of origin to describe the materials not classified in Chapters 50 to 63,
which can be used to manufacture artificial, synthetic or paper fibres or yarns.
5.4 The term "man-made staple fibres" is used in the list of product specific rules of origin to
refer to synthetic or artificial filament tow, staple fibres or waste, of headings 5501 to 5507.
5.5 The term "printing" means a technique by which an objectively assessed function, such as
colour, design or technical performance, is applied to a textile substrate with a permanent character,
using screen, roller, digital or transfer techniques.
& /en 6
5.6 The term "printing (as standalone operation)" means printing combined with at least two
preparatory or finishing operations (such as scouring, bleaching, mercerising, heat setting, raising,
calendaring, shrink resistance processing, permanent finishing, decatising, impregnating, mending
and burling shearing, singeing, process of air-tumbler, process of stenter, milling, steam and
shrinking, and wet decatising), provided that the value of all the non-originating materials used does
not exceed 50 % of the ex-works price of the good.
5.7 If for a given product in the list of product specific rules of origin a reference is made to
Note 5, the conditions set out in in the second column of that list shall not apply to non-originating
basic textile materials used in the production of this product, which, taken together, do not
exceed 8 % of the total weight of all the basic textile materials used. Note 5.9 or 5.10 may also
apply.
5.8 The tolerance provided for in Note 5.7 may only apply to mixed products which have been
made from two or more of the following basic textile materials:
(a) silk;
(b) wool;
(c) coarse animal hair;
(d) fine animal hair;
& /en 7
(e) horsehair;
(f) cotton;
(g) paper-making materials and paper;
(h) flax;
(i) true hemp;
(j) jute and other textile bast fibres;
(k) sisal and other textile fibres of the genus Agave;
(l) coconut, abaca, ramie and other vegetable textile fibres;
(m) synthetic man-made filaments;
(n) artificial man-made filaments;
(o) current conducting filaments;
(p) synthetic man-made staple fibres of polypropylene;
& /en 8
(q) synthetic man-made staple fibres of polyester;
(r) synthetic man-made staple fibres of polyamide;
(s) synthetic man-made staple fibres of polyacrylonitrile;
(t) synthetic man-made staple fibres of polyimide;
(u) synthetic man-made staple fibres of polytetrafluoroethylene;
(v) synthetic man-made staple fibres of polyphenylene sulphide;
(w) synthetic man-made staple fibres of polyvinyl chloride;
(x) other synthetic man-made staple fibres;
(y) artificial man-made staple fibres of viscose;
(z) other artificial man-made staple fibres;
(aa) yarn made of polyurethane segmented with flexible segments of polyether whether or not
gimped;
& /en 9
(ab) yarn made of polyurethane segmented with flexible segments of polyester whether or not
gimped;
(ac) products classified under heading 5605 (metallised yarn) incorporating strip consisting of a
core of aluminium foil or of a core of plastic film whether or not coated with aluminium
powder, of a width not exceeding five millimetres, sandwiched by means of a transparent or
coloured adhesive between two layers of plastic film; and
(ad) other products classified under heading 5605.
Example: A yarn of heading 5205 made from cotton fibres of heading 5203 and synthetic
staple fibres of heading 5506 is a mixed yarn. Therefore, non-originating synthetic staple
fibres that do not satisfy the rule of origin (which requires manufacture from chemical
materials or textile pulp) may be used up to a weight of 8 % of the yarn.
Example: A woollen fabric of heading 5112 made from woollen yarn of heading 5107 and
synthetic yarn of staple fibres of heading 5509 is a mixed fabric. Therefore, synthetic yarn
which does not satisfy the rule of origin (which requires manufacture from chemical materials
or textile pulp) or woollen yarn that does not satisfy the rule of origin (which require
manufacture from natural fibres, not carded or combed or otherwise prepared for spinning) or
a combination of both may be used provided their total weight does not exceed 8 % of the
weight of the fabric.
& /en 10
Example: Tufted textile fabric of heading 5802 made from cotton yarn of heading 5205 and
cotton fabric of heading 5210 is only a mixed product if the cotton fabric is itself a mixed
fabric being made from yarns classified in two separate headings or if the cotton yarns used
are themselves mixtures.
Example: If the tufted textile fabric concerned had been made from cotton yarn of
heading 5205 and synthetic fabric of heading 5407, then, obviously, the yarns used are two
separate basic textile materials and the tufted textile fabric is accordingly a mixed product.
5.9 If for a given product a reference is made to Note 5, the conditions set out in the second
column of the list in Section B shall not apply to yarn made of polyurethane segmented with
flexible segments of polyether whether or not gimped if the non-originating yarn does not
exceed 8 % of the total weight of all the basic textile materials used.
5.10 If for a given product a reference is made to Note 5, the conditions set out in the second
column of the list in Section B shall not apply to the strip consisting of a core of aluminium foil or
of a core of plastic film whether or not coated with aluminium powder, of a width not exceeding
five millimetres, sandwiched by means of an adhesive between two layers of plastic film when the
non-originating strip does not exceed 30 % of the total weight of all the basic textile materials used.
& /en 11
Note 6
Other Tolerances Applicable to Certain Textile Materials
6.1 If reference to Note 6 is made in the list of product specific rules of origin in Section B, textile
materials may be used, with the exception of linings and interlinings, which do not satisfy the
requirements set out in the second column for the made-up textile product, provided that those
materials are classified under a heading other than that of the product and that their value does not
exceed 8 % of the ex-works price of the product.
6.2 Without prejudice to Note 6.3, materials which are not classified under Chapters 50 to 63 may
be used freely in the production of textile products, whether or not they contain textiles.
Example: If a rule in the list provides that for a particular textile item, such as trousers, yarn
must be used, this does not prevent the use of metal items, such as buttons, because buttons
are not classified in Chapters 50 to 63. For the same reason, it does not prevent the use of
slide-fasteners even though slide-fasteners normally contain textiles.
6.3 If a percentage rule applies, the value of materials which are not classified under Chapters 50
to 63 shall be taken into account when calculating the value of the incorporated non-originating
materials.
& /en 12
Note 7
Agricultural Goods
7.1 Agricultural goods classified under Section II of the Harmonized System and heading 2401,
which are grown or harvested in the territory of a Party, shall be treated as originating in the
territory of a Party, even if grown from seeds, bulbs, rootstock, cuttings, slips, grafts, shoots, buds,
or other live parts of plants imported from a third-country.

8 Active cathode materials (CAM) of rechargeable batteries are chemical materials and any
subsequent products, which have reached the stage at which they can react chemically to
produce electric energy when a battery cell is being discharged and form the positive
electrode in the battery cell. The active cathode material is used in battery cell production to
produce a cathode.
9 Cathode slurry is a mixture of active cathode material, conductive additives, binders and
solvents, intended to be coated onto a current collector to get the cathode in its final form,
which serves as a functional electrode in a battery cell.

modifications of the other Party.
SECTION C
Four-Step Process for the Recognition of Qualifications
14. The following four-step process should be considered to simplify and facilitate the
recognition of the qualifications.
Step One: Verification of Equivalency
15. The negotiating entities should verify the overall equivalence of the scope of practice or
qualifications of the regulated profession in their respective jurisdictions.
16. The examination of qualifications should include the collection of all relevant information
pertaining to the scope of practice rights related to a legal competency to practice or to the
qualifications required for a specific regulated profession in the respective jurisdictions.
& /en 8
17. The negotiating entities should:
(a) identify activities or groups of activities covered by the scope of practice rights of the
regulated profession; and
(b) identify the qualifications required in each jurisdiction, which may include the following
elements:
(i) the minimum level of education required, for example, entry requirements, length of
study and subjects studied;
(ii) the minimum level of experience required, for example, location, length and conditions
of practical training or supervised professional practice prior to licensing, or the
framework of ethical and disciplinary standards;
(iii) examinations passed, especially examinations of professional competency;
(iv) the extent to which qualifications from one jurisdiction are recognised in the other
jurisdiction; and
& /en 9
(v) the qualifications which the relevant authorities in each jurisdiction are prepared to
recognise, for instance, by listing particular diplomas or certificates issued, or by
reference to particular minimum requirements to be certified by the relevant authorities
of the jurisdiction of origin, including whether the possession of a certain level of
qualification would allow recognition for some activities of the scope of practice but not
others such as level and length of education, major educational focuses and overall
subjects and areas.
18. There is an overall equivalence between the scope of practice rights or the qualifications of
the regulated profession if there are no substantial differences in this regard between jurisdictions.
Step Two: Evaluation of Substantial Differences
19. Substantial differences in the scope of qualifications required to practice a regulated
profession exist, in cases of:
(a) important differences in the essential knowledge; or
(b) significant differences in the duration or content of the training between the jurisdictions.
20. Substantial differences in the scope of practice exist if:
(a) one or more professional activities do not form part of the corresponding profession in the
jurisdiction of origin;
& /en 10
(b) those activities are subject to specific training in the host jurisdiction; and
(c) the training for those activities in the host jurisdiction covers substantially different matters
from those covered by the applicant's qualification.
Step Three: Equivalence Measures
21. If the negotiating entities determine that substantial differences exist in the scope of practice
rights or of qualifications between the jurisdictions, they may determine equivalence measures to
reduce those differences.
22. Equivalence measures may take the form of, among other things, an adaptation period or, if
required, an aptitude test.
23. Equivalence measures should be proportionate to the substantial differences which they seek
to address. The negotiating entities should also evaluate any practical professional experience
obtained in the jurisdiction of origin to see whether this experience is sufficient to remedy, in whole
or in part, the substantial differences in the scope of practice rights or qualifications between the
jurisdictions, prior to determining a equivalence measure.
& /en 11
Step Four: Identification of the Conditions for Recognition
24. Once the assessment of the overall equivalency of the scope of practice rights or
qualifications of the regulated profession is completed, the negotiating entities should specify in the
MRA:
(a) the legal competency required to practice the regulated profession;
(b) the qualifications for the regulated profession;
(c) whether equivalence measures are necessary;
(d) the extent to which professional experience may compensate for substantial differences; and
(e) a description of any equivalence measures, including the use of any adaptation period or
aptitude test.

MAIN ELEMENTS OF THE OPPOSITION PROCEDURE
SECTION A
MAIN ELEMENTS OF THE OPPOSITION PROCEDURE
IN THE EUROPEAN UNION
When carrying out an opposition procedure as referred to in Article 25.33, the European Union
shall ensure the following.
1. Any natural or legal person except those established or resident in Mexico, having a
legitimate interest, shall be invited, by publication of a notice, to oppose the envisaged protection of
the geographical indication concerned by lodging a duly substantiated statement. The notice shall
include the name(s) with the corresponding transcription into Latin characters, and the product type
of the geographical indication to be protected.
2. Statements of opposition shall reach the European Commission no later than two months after
the date of publication of the notice.
& /en 1
3. Statements of opposition shall be admissible only if they are received within the time-limit set
out above and if they show that:
(a) the protection of the name proposed would conflict with the name of a plant variety, including
a wine grape variety or an animal breed, and as a result is likely to mislead the consumer as to
the true origin of the good;
(b) there is a homonymous name which is likely to mislead the consumer into believing that the
good comes from another territory;
(c) the protection of the name proposed would in the light of a trademark's reputation and renown
and the length of time it has been used, be likely to mislead the consumer as to the true
identity of the good;
(d) the protection of the name proposed would jeopardise the existence of an entirely or partly
identical name or of a trademark or the existence of a good which has been legally on the
market for at least five years preceding the date of the publication of the notice; or
(e) the information provided by the opponent indicates that the name, for which protection and
registration is considered, is generic.
4. The elements of the opposition procedure referred to above shall be evaluated in relation to
the territory of the European Union, which in the case of intellectual property rights refers only to
the territory or territories where those rights are protected.
& /en 2
SECTION B
MAIN ELEMENTS OF THE OPPOSITION PROCEDURE IN MEXICO
When carrying out an opposition procedure as referred to in Article 25.33, Mexico shall ensure the
following.
Legitimate interested persons shall have the right to oppose the envisaged protection of a
geographical indication in accordance with the law of Mexico. The criteria for opposition shall be
published in a public notice and are the following:
1. the name is identical to, or has a degree of similarity so as to lead to confusion with
("semejante en grado de confusion"), a protected appellation of origin or geographical
indication for the same or a similar good;
2. the name is identical to, or has a degree of similarity so as to lead to confusion with
("semejante en grado de confusion"), a name that is subject to a pending pre-existing good
faith application for recognition as appellation of origin or geographical indication for the
same or a similar good;
3. the name is generic or is commonly used in the territory of Mexico for the good that is
intended to be protected, or, has become a common or generic element of that good in
common or commercial language;
& /en 3
4. the name, considering all its characteristics, constitutes a description of the good that it seeks
to protect. Those characteristics shall include descriptive or indicative words which usually
serve to designate species, quality, quantity, composition, destination or value of a good in the
course of trade;
5. the name is identical to, or has a degree of similarity so as to lead to confusion with
("semejante en grado de confusion"), a registered trademark or commercial name registered in
Mexico, applicable to the same or similar goods;
6. the name is identical to, or has a degree of similarity so as to lead to confusion with
("semejante en grado de confusion"), a pending pre-existing good faith application for
trademarks or commercial names;
7. the name is a translation or transliteration of an appellation of origin or geographical
indication which cannot be protected; and
8. the name conflicts with the name of a plant variety, including a wine grape variety, or an

esitatud päritolustaatusega kaupade tollimaks on alates käesoleva lepingu jõustumise
kuupäevast 75 eurot tonni kohta.
4. Kui päritolustaatusega kauba tollimaks on sätestatud ühes lõikes 3 esitatud
üleminekukategooriatest, vähendatakse kõnealusele kaubale kehtestatud tollimaksude kõiki
komponente või kaotatakse kõnealusele kaubale kehtestatud tollimaksude kõik komponendid, mida
väljendatakse kas väärtuselise või koguselise tollimaksuna või nende mis tahes kombinatsioonina,
antud üleminekukategooria vastavates etappides.
5. Euroopa Liidu tollitariifide kaotamise ajakava üleminekukategooria 0/EP tariifiridade all
esitatud päritolustaatusega kaupade väärtuselise tollimaksu komponent kaotatakse alates käesoleva
lepingu jõustumise kuupäevast. Tollitariifide kaotamist kohaldatakse ainult väärtuselise tollimaksu
suhtes. Päritolustaatusega kaupade koguseline tollimaks säilitatakse olukorras, kus impordihind
langeb allapoole piiril kehtivat hinda.
& /et 9
6. Selleks et kaotada tollimaksud vastavalt artiklile 2.4 „Tollimaksude kaotamine või
vähendamine“, ümardatakse vahepealsed tollimaksumäärad allapoole vähemalt lähima
kümnendikuni protsendipunktist või juhul, kui tollimaksu väljendatakse rahaühikutes, vähemalt
lähima kümnendikuni lepinguosalise ametlikust rahaühikust.

Tariifikvootide üldeeskirjad
1. Lepinguosalise tollitariifide kaotamise ajakava veerus „Üleminekukategooria“ TRQ-XY
märkega tariifiridade alla klassifitseeritud päritolustaatusega toodete tollimaksude suhtes
kohaldatakse alates käesoleva lepingu jõustumise kuupäevast konkreetse tariifirea jaoks kehtiva
tariifikvoodi tingimusi, nagu on sätestatud liidetes 2-A-3 ja 2-A-4.
2. Kui käesoleva lepingu jõustumise kuupäeval on tariifikvoodi kohaldamise aasta lõpuni vähem
kui 12 kuud, teeb kumbki lepinguosaline iga käesoleva lisa kohaselt määratud tariifikvoodi
haldamiseks esimesel aastal alates käesoleva lepingu jõustumise kuupäevast kvoodi taotlejatele
kättesaadavaks käesoleva lisa kohaselt kindlaksmääratud tariifikvoodi aastase koguse, mis
korrutatakse murdarvuga, mille lugeja on täisarv, mis koosneb tariifikvoodi kohaldamise aasta
lõpuni jäänud päevadest alates käesoleva lepingu jõustumise kuupäevast, ning mille nimetaja on
365. Seejärel teeb kumbki lepinguosaline iga tariifikvoodi kohaldamise aasta esimesel päeval
kvoodi taotlejatele kättesaadavaks käesoleva lisa kohaselt kindlaksmääratud tariifikvoodi kogu
aastase koguse.

RAVIMID
1. Kumbki lepinguosaline täidab tehniliste kaubandustõkete lepingus sätestatud kohustusi seoses
müügiloa andmise, teatamismenetluse ja muude regulatiivsete nõuetega, mille kumbki
lepinguosaline koostab, võtab vastu või mida kohaldatakse ravimite suhtes ja mis ei kuulu tehniliste
eeskirjade määratluse või vastavushindamismenetluse kohaldamisalasse.
2. Kumbki lepinguosaline kasutab oma tehniliste eeskirjade alusena ravimite ja
meditsiiniseadmete rahvusvahelisi standardeid, tavasid ja suuniseid, kaasa arvatud neid, mille on
välja töötanud Maailma Terviseorganisatsioon (WHO), Majanduskoostöö ja Arengu Organisatsioon
(OECD), inimravimite tehniliste nõuete rahvusvahelise ühtlustamisnõukogu (ICH) ning
farmaatsiatoodete kontrolli konventsiooni ja farmaatsiatoodete kontrolli alase koostöö kava (PIC/S),
välja arvatud juhtudel, kui teaduslikule või tehnilisele teabele tuginedes on nõuetekohaselt
põhjendatud, miks sellised rahvusvahelised standardid, tavad või suunised oleksid soovitavate
õiguspäraste eesmärkide saavutamiseks ebatõhusad või ebasobivad.
& /et 1
3. Lepinguosalised tunnistavad, et nende täielik osalemine lõikes 2 osutatud asjakohastes
organites hõlbustab nendevahelist regulatiivset koostööd. Lepinguosalised püüavad teha otsuse häid
tootmistavasid käsitleva vastastikuse tunnustamise lepingu sõlmimise kohta tulevikus. Sellega
seoses tunnistavad lepinguosalised, kui oluline on näidata häid tulemusi rahvusvaheliste standardite
rakendamisel ja omavahelise usalduse suurendamisel. Kaubavahetuskomitee tuleb kokku iga kahe
aasta järel, et jälgida edusamme. Nendel kohtumistel arutavad lepinguosalised oma vastavate
õigusraamistike arengut ja seda, kuidas kaitsta teabevahetust. Samuti alustavad lepinguosalised
dialoogi, et arutada kontrollimenetlusi ja hinnata vastastikuse tunnustamise lepinguga saavutatavat
kokkuhoidu.

MOOTORSÕIDUKID NING NENDE SEADMED JA OSAD
1. Käesolevat lisa kohaldatakse standardite, tehniliste normide ja vastavushindamismenetluste
suhtes, mille lepinguosaline on oma kesksel valitsemistasandil vastu võtnud või säilitanud seoses
tema õigusnormides määratletud uute mootorsõidukite või mootorsõidukite uute seadmete ohutuse
ja heitega.
2. Lepinguosalised püüavad kõrvaldada tarbetud kaubandustõkked ja tõhustada regulatiivset
koostööd kooskõlas 9. peatükiga „Tehnilised kaubandustõkked“, tunnustades samal ajal kummagi
lepinguosalise õigust määrata kindlaks oma soovitud ohutuse ning tervise-, keskkonna- ja
tarbijakaitse tase.
Turulepääs
3. Kumbki lepinguosaline aktsepteerib oma turul kõiki tema õigusnormides määratletud uusi
mootorsõidukeid või mootorsõidukite uusi seadmeid, tingimusel et tootja on importiva
lepinguosalise kohaldatavate menetluste kohaselt tõendanud, et sõiduk või seadmed vastavad
importiva lepinguosalise kohaldatavatele ohutusstandarditele ja tehnilistele normidele1.
1 Suurema selguse huvides olgu märgitud, et ühtki käesoleva lõike sätet ei tõlgendata nii, et see
takistaks lepinguosalist lubamast oma turul vastu võtta ka uusi mootorsõidukeid või
mootorsõidukite uusi seadmeid, mis on sertifitseeritud vastavalt kolmanda riigi ohutus- ja
heitenormidele, või nõuda vastavuse tõendamist mootorsõidukite ohutus- ja heitenormidele,
mille lepinguosaline säilitab käesoleva lepingu jõustumise kuupäeval.

4. Lepinguosalised tunnistavad, et Mehhiko on lisanud oma tehnilistesse normidesse
NOM-194-SCFI ja NOM-042-SEMARNAT Euroopa Liidu ja ÜRO Euroopa Majanduskomisjoni
(UNECE) tehnilised normid, sealhulgas nende vastavad katsearuanded ja tüübikinnitustunnistused,
mis on loetletud liites 2-G-1 „Mehhiko poolt heaks kiidetud tunnistused ja katsearuanded“.
5. Mehhiko säilitab õiguse muuta oma tehnilisi norme NOM‑194‑SCFI ja NOM-042-
SEMARNAT, sealhulgas lisades neisse Euroopa Liidu või UNECE tehnilised normid. Selliste
muudatuste tegemise ajal teavitab Mehhiko Euroopa Liitu ja esitab taotluse korral teavet
muudatuste põhjuste kohta. Mehhiko tunnustab jätkuvalt liites 2-G-1 „Mehhiko poolt heaks
kiidetud tunnistused ja katsearuanded“ loetletud tehnilisi norme ja nende ajakohastatud versioone,
välja arvatud juhul, kui selline tunnustamine tagaks ohutuse või keskkonnakaitse madalama taseme
kui tehtud muudatused või seaks ohtu USA, Mehhiko ja Kanada lepingu raames võetud kohustused
või oleks vastuolus Mehhiko õiguspäraste poliitikaeesmärkidega.
6. Kui Mehhiko vaatab läbi mootorsõidukite ja nende seadmete tüübikinnitust käsitlevaid
tehnilisi norme, püüavad lepinguosalised üksteisega konsulteerida vastavalt 9. peatüki „Tehnilised
kaubandustõkked“ asjakohastele sätetele, et teha kindlaks, kas liites 2-G-2 „Täiendavad tunnistused
ja katsearuanded“ loetletud tehnilised normid võib lisada liitesse 2-G-1 „Mehhiko poolt heaks
kiidetud tunnistused ja katsearuanded“.

7. Kumbki lepinguosaline püüab lubada importida ja viia oma turule tooteid, mille valmistamisel
on kasutatud uut tehnoloogiat või mis on uute omadusega, mida importiv lepinguosaline ei ole veel
reguleerinud, välja arvatud juhul, kui tal on põhjendatud kahtlused toote ohutuse suhtes, tuginedes
teaduslikule või tehnilisele teabele, mis näitab, et see uus tehnoloogia või omadus kujutab endast
riski inimeste tervisele, ohutusele või keskkonnale. Lepinguosaline, kes keelab nende toodete
impordi ja turule viimise, teatab sellest otsusest teisele lepinguosalisele niipea kui võimalik.
8. Lepinguosaline ei kaota ega vähenda teise lepinguosalise soodustusi, mis tulenevad
käesolevast lisast, rakendades hõlmatud toodetega seotud regulatiivseid meetmeid. See kohustus ei
piira lepinguosalise õigust võtta meetmeid, mis on vajalikud ohutuse ning keskkonna või
rahvatervise kaitseks.
Koostöö
9. Lepinguosalised teevad kaubavahetuskomitees koostööd ja vahetavad teavet kõigis käesoleva
lisa rakendamisega seotud küsimustes.
10. Et edendada õigusnormide lähendamist, vahetavad lepinguosalised teavet, niivõrd kui see on
võimalik, oma mootorsõidukite ohutuse ja keskkonnakaitsega seotud tehniliste eeskirjade kohta.
11. Liide 2-G-1 „Mehhiko poolt heaks kiidetud tunnistused ja katsearuanded“ ja liide 2-G-2

TOOTEPÕHISED PÄRITOLUREEGLID
A JAGU
SISSEJUHATAVAD MÄRKUSED
Märkus 1
Üldpõhimõtted
1.1 Käesolevas jaos sätestatakse eeskirjad selle lisa B ja C jaos sätestatud tingimuste
kohaldamiseks vastavalt artikli 3.2 „Üldnõuded“ lõike 1 punktile c.
1.2 Käesoleva lisa kohaldamisel on nõuded, mille kohaselt käsitatakse toodet päritolustaatusega
tootena vastavalt artikli 3.2 „Üldnõuded“ lõike 1 punktile c järgmised: kauba tariifse
klassifikatsiooni muudatus, tootmisprotsess, päritolustaatuseta materjalide maksimaalne väärtus või
mass või muu käesolevas lisas sätestatud nõue.
1.3 Viide massile tootepõhises päritolureeglis tähistab netomassi, mis on materjali või toote mass
ilma pakendi massita.
& /et 1
Märkus 2
Tootepõhiste päritolureeglite loetelu ülesehitus
2.1 Märkusi jaotiste, gruppide, rubriikide või alamrubriikide kohta tuleb vajaduse korral lugeda
koos vastava jaotise, grupi, rubriigi või alamrubriigi tootepõhiste päritolureeglitega.
2.2 B jao loetelu teises veerus sätestatud iga tootepõhist päritolureeglit kohaldatakse selle loetelu
esimeses veerus osutatud vastava toote suhtes.
2.3 Kui toote suhtes kohaldatakse alternatiivseid tootepõhiseid päritolureegleid, loetakse toode
lepinguosalise päritolustaatusele vastavaks, kui ta vastab ühele alternatiivsele reeglile.
2.4 Kui toote suhtes kohaldatakse sellist tootepõhist päritolureeglit, mis sisaldab mitut nõuet,
loetakse toode lepinguosalise päritolustaatusele vastavaks üksnes siis, kui ta vastab kõigile neile
nõuetele.
2.5 Kui tootepõhises päritolureeglis on konkreetselt sätestatud, et teatavat harmoneeritud süsteemi
materjali ei tohi kasutada, tähendab see, et välistatud materjalid peavad pärinema lepinguosalise
territooriumilt.
Näide: kui rubriigi 3505 päritolureegel näeb ette „CTH, v.a rubriik 1108“, peavad rubriiki
1108 klassifitseeritud materjalid (tärklised, inuliin) olema päritolustaatusega.
& /et 2
Märkus 3
Tootepõhiste päritolureeglite kohaldamine
3.1 Artikli 3.2 „Üldnõuded“ lõiget 2, milles käsitletakse tooteid, millele on antud päritolustaatus,
kui neid kasutatakse materjalina teiste toodete valmistamisel, kohaldatakse olenemata asjaolust, kas
päritolustaatus on antud lepinguosalise samas tootmispaigas, kus neid tooteid kasutatakse.
3.2 Kui tootepõhises päritolureeglis on sätestatud, et teatavat päritolustaatuseta materjali ei tohi
kasutada või et teatava päritolustaatuseta materjali väärtus või kaal ei tohi ületada teatavat
piirmäära, ei kehti need tingimused selliste päritolustaatuseta materjalide suhtes, mis on
harmoneeritud süsteemis mujale klassifitseeritud.
Näide: Kui grupi 19 reegel näeb ette, et „kasutatavate rubriiki 1006, 1101, 1102 või 1104–
1108 kuuluvate päritolustaatuseta materjalide kogumass ei ületa 20 % lõpptoote massist“, ei
ole grupi 10 päritolustaatuseta teravilja, v.a rubriiki 1006 kuuluv riis, kasutamine piiratud.
3.3 Kui tootepõhise päritolureegliga on ette nähtud, et toode peab olema valmistatud teatavast
materjalist, ei takista see kasutamast muid materjale, mis oma iseloomulike omaduste tõttu ei saa
reeglile vastata.
& /et 3
Märkus 4
Mõisted
4.1 Käesolevas lisas kasutatakse järgmisi mõisteid:
a) „CC“ – valmistamine mis tahes gruppi kuuluvast päritolustaatuseta materjalist, v.a toote
gruppi kuuluv materjal, või ümberliigitamine mõnest muust grupist asjaomase toote gruppi,
rubriiki või alamrubriiki nii, et kõigi asjaomase toote valmistamiseks kasutatud
päritolustaatuseta materjalide puhul tuleb teha tariifse klassifikatsiooni muudatus
harmoneeritud süsteemi kahe numbri tasandil (st grupi muudatus);
b) „CTH“ – valmistamine mis tahes rubriiki kuuluvast päritolustaatuseta materjalist, v.a toote
rubriiki kuuluv materjal, või ümberliigitamine mõnest muust rubriigist asjaomase toote
gruppi, rubriiki või alamrubriiki nii, et kõigi asjaomase toote valmistamiseks kasutatud
päritolustaatuseta materjalide puhul tuleb teha tariifse klassifikatsiooni muudatus
harmoneeritud süsteemi nelja numbri tasandil (st rubriigi muudatus);
c) „CTSH“ – valmistamine mis tahes alamrubriiki kuuluvast päritolustaatuseta materjalist, v.a
toote alamrubriiki kuuluv materjal, või ümberliigitamine mõnest muust alamrubriigist
asjaomase toote gruppi, rubriiki või alamrubriiki nii, et kõigi asjaomase toote valmistamiseks
kasutatud päritolustaatuseta materjalide puhul tuleb teha tariifse klassifikatsiooni muudatus
harmoneeritud süsteemi kuue numbri tasandil (st alamrubriigi muudatus);
d) „tolliväärtus“ – kauba väärtus, mis on määratud tolliväärtuse määramise lepingu kohaselt;
& /et 4
e) „EXW“ või „tehasehind“ – hind, mida makstakse tehases toote eest selle lepinguosalise
territooriumil asuvale tootjale, kus toimus viimane töö või töötlus, ning mis igal juhul sisaldab
kõigi kasutatud materjalide väärtust ja kõiki muid selle tootmisega seotud kulusid, sellest on
maha arvatud kõik riigisisesed maksud, mis makstakse tagasi või mida võib tagasi maksta
saadud toote ekspordil, isegi kui hind ei ole teada, on ebakindel või ei kajasta kõiki toote
tootmisega seotud kulusid.
Kui viimane töö või töötlus on tellitud lepinguosalise territooriumil asuvalt tootjalt allhanke
korras, osutab mõiste „tootja“ alltöövõtja palganud ettevõtjale;
f) „MaxNOM“ – päritolustaatuseta materjalide maksimaalne väärtus, mis on väljendatud
protsendimäärana ja mis arvutatakse vastavalt järgmisele valemile:
VNM
MaxNOM(%) = × 100
EXW
g) „NOM“ – valmistamine mis tahes rubriiki kuuluvast päritolustaatuseta materjalist ning
h) „VNM“ – toote valmistamisel kasutatud päritolustaatuseta materjalide väärtus, mis on nende
tolliväärtus impordi ajal, sealhulgas veo-, kindlustus- (kui see on asjakohane), pakendamis- ja
kõik muud kulud, mis on seotud materjalide transportimisega selle lepinguosalise
impordisadamasse, kus kauba tootja asub, või kui väärtus ei ole teada ja seda ei ole võimalik
kindlaks teha, siis esimene tuvastatav hind, mida makstakse päritolustaatuseta materjalide eest
Euroopa Liidus või Mehhikos.

5.3 Tootepõhiste päritolureeglite loetelus kasutatud terminitega „tekstiilimass“, „keemilised
materjalid“ ja „paberi valmistamiseks kasutatavad materjalid“ kirjeldatakse materjale, mis ei kuulu
gruppidesse 50–63 ning mida saab kasutada tehis-, süntees- või paberkiudude ja -lõngade
valmistamiseks.
5.4 Tootepõhiste päritolureeglite loetelus kasutatud termin „keemilised staapelkiud“ tähendab
rubriikidesse 5501–5507 kuuluvaid süntees- või tehisfilamentköisikuid, -staapelkiudusid või
kiujäätmeid.
5.5 „Trükkimine“– tehnika, millega tekstiili alusmaterjalile antakse püsiva loomuga objektiivselt
hinnatav funktsioon, nagu värv, kujundus või tehniline omadus, kasutades siidi-, rull-, digitaal- või
ülekandetrüki tehnikaid.
& /et 6

ab) mähitud või mähkimata lõng, mis koosneb elastsete polüestriosadega polüuretaanist;
ac) rubriiki 5605 kuuluvad tooted (metalliseeritud lõng), mis sisaldavad kahe plastkile vahele
läbipaistva või värvilise liimiga liimitud kuni 5 mm laiust riba, mis koosneb
alumiiniumpulbriga kaetud või katmata alumiiniumfoolium- või plastkilesüdamikust, ning
ad) muud rubriiki 5605 kuuluvad tooted.
Näide: Rubriiki 5203 kuuluvast puuvillakiust ja rubriiki 5506 kuuluvast sünteesstaapelkiust
valmistatud rubriiki 5205 kuuluv lõng on segalõng. Seetõttu võib päritolustaatuseta
sünteesstaapelkiud, mis ei vasta päritolureeglitele (mis näevad ette, et see peab olema
valmistatud keemilistest materjalidest või tekstiilimassist), moodustada kuni 8 % lõnga
massist.
Näide: Rubriiki 5112 kuuluv villane riie, mis on valmistatud rubriiki 5107 kuuluvast villasest
lõngast ja rubriiki 5509 kuuluvast sünteesstaapellõngast, on segariie. Seetõttu võib
sünteeslõnga, mis ei vasta päritolureeglitele (milles nähakse ette, et see peab olema
valmistatud keemilisest materjalist või tekstiilimassist), või villast lõnga, mis ei vasta
päritolureeglitele (milles nähakse ette, et see peab olema valmistatud kraasimata, kammimata
või muul viisil ketramiseks ettevalmistamata looduslikust kiust), või nende segu kasutada
tingimusel, et nende kogumass ei ületa 8 % riide massist.
& /et 10
Näide: Rubriiki 5205 kuuluvast puuvillasest lõngast ja rubriiki 5210 kuuluvast puuvillasest
riidest valmistatud rubriiki 5802 kuuluv taftingriie on segatoode üksnes siis, kui puuvillane
riie ise on kahte eri rubriiki klassifitseeritud lõngast valmistatud segariie või kui puuvillane
lõng on segatoode.
Näide: Kui kõnealune taftingriie on valmistatud rubriiki 5205 kuuluvast puuvillasest lõngast
ja rubriiki 5407 kuuluvast sünteesriidest, on kasutatud lõngad ilmselt kaks erinevat
põhitekstiilmaterjali, mistõttu selline taftingriie on segatoode.
5.9 Kui teatava toote puhul viidatakse märkusele 5, ei kohaldata B jaotise loetelu teises veerus
sätestatud tingimusi mähitud või mähkimata lõnga suhtes, mis koosneb elastsete polüeetriosadega
polüuretaanist, kui päritolustaatuseta lõng ei ületa 8 % kõigi kasutatud põhitekstiilmaterjalide
kogumassist.
5.10 Kui teatava toote puhul viidatakse märkusele 5, ei kohaldata B jaotise loetelu teises veerus
sätestatud tingimusi ribade suhtes, mis sisaldavad kahe plastkile vahele läbipaistva või värvilise
liimiga liimitud kuni 5 mm laiust riba, mis koosneb alumiiniumpulbriga kaetud või katmata
alumiiniumfoolium- või plastkilesüdamikust, kui päritolustaatuseta ribad ei ületa 30 % kõigi
kasutatud põhitekstiilmaterjalide kogumassist.
& /et 11
Märkus 6
Muud teatavate tekstiilmaterjalide suhtes kohaldatavad lubatud kõrvalekalded
6.1 Kui tootepõhiste päritolureeglite loetelus B jaos viidatakse märkusele 6, võib kasutada
päritolustaatuseta tekstiilmaterjale (välja arvatud vooder ja vaheriie), mis ei vasta asjaomase lisa
teise veeru nõuetele tekstiilist valmistoodete kohta, tingimusel et need materjalid on klassifitseeritud
mõnda teise rubriiki kui kõnealune toode ning nende väärtus ei ületa 8 % toote tehasehinnast.
6.2 Ilma et see piiraks märkuse 6.3 kohaldamist, võib tekstiiltoodete tootmiseks vabalt kasutada
gruppidesse 50–63 klassifitseerimata materjale, hoolimata sellest, kas need sisaldavad tekstiili või
mitte.
Näide: Kui loetelu reegel näeb ette, et teatava tekstiilmaterjalist kaubaartikli, näiteks pükste
valmistamiseks tuleb kasutada lõnga, ei takista see metallist kaubaartiklite, näiteks nööpide
kasutamist, kuna nööpe ei klassifitseerita gruppidesse 50–63. Samal põhjusel ei takista see
tõmblukkude kasutamist, isegi kui tõmblukud sisaldavad tavaliselt tekstiili.
6.3 Kui kohaldatakse protsendireeglit, tuleb gruppidesse 50–63 klassifitseerimata materjalide
väärtus võtta arvesse kaubas sisalduvate päritolustaatuseta materjalide väärtuse arvutamisel.

viisil kui üksnes purustamise või pressimise teel, mille tulemusel saadakse toode, millel on
kindlaksmääratud suurusega osakesed, osakeste kindlaksmääratud suurusjaotus või
kindlaksmääratud pind, mis on saadava toote seisukohalt olulised ning mille füüsikalised ja
keemilised omadused erinevad kasutatud materjalide omadest.
8.5 „Standardmaterjalide tootmine“ (sh standardlahused) – selliste preparaatide tootmine, mis
sobivad analüüside tegemiseks, kalibreerimiseks või etalonina kasutamiseks ning millel on tootja
poolt sertifitseeritud täpne puhtusaste või seguvahekord.
8.6 „Isomeeride eraldamine“ – isomeeride isoleerimine või eraldamine isomeeride segust.

SELGITAVAD MÄRKUSED
Artikkel 3.14 „Mittemuutmise põhimõte“
1. Kui eksportija ei tea ekspordi ajal saadetises sisalduvate konkreetsete kaupade lõppsihtkohta,
esitab importija päritolukinnituse, mis on väljastatud pärast eksportimist.
2. Importija võib tõendada, et kaup, mida veeti läbi kolmanda riigi territooriumi (koos
ümberlaadimise või ajutise ladustamisega või ilma), oli sellel territooriumil tolli järelevalve all.
Importiva lepinguosalise tolliasutuse taotlusel peab importija esitama järgmised dokumendid:
a) veodokumendid, nagu lennusaateleht, veokiri või maanteeveokiri, milles on märgitud kauba
lähetamise kuupäev ja koht ning lõppsihtkoha sadam, lennujaam või sissetoomise koht, juhul
kui kaup veetakse läbi ühe või mitme kolmanda riigi territooriumi ilma ümberlaadimise või
ajutise ladustamiseta;
b) veodokumendid, nagu lennusaateleht, veokiri või maanteeveokiri, või kombineeritud veo
dokument, kui kaupa veetakse läbi ühe või mitme kolmanda riigi territooriumi koos
ümberlaadimisega sellisel territooriumil, kuid ilma et seda seal ajutiselt ladustataks; või
& /et 1
c) koopia dokumentidest, mis tõendavad, et kaup oli tolliasutuse järelevalve all, juhul kui kaup,
mida veeti läbi ühe või mitme kolmanda riigi territooriumi, laaditi seal ümber ja ladustati
ajutiselt.
3. Lõikes 2 osutatud dokumentide puudumise korral võib importija esitada muid tõendavaid
dokumente.
Artikkel 3.18 „Päritolukinnituse koostamise tingimused“
4. Päritolukinnituse peab koostama ühe lepinguosalise territooriumil asutatud eksportija. Kui
arve on koostatud kolmandas riigis, koostatakse päritolukinnitus mis tahes muul äridokumendil1,
mis on välja antud eksportiva lepinguosalise territooriumil ja milles asjaomaseid kaupu
kirjeldatakse piisavalt täpselt, et neid oleks võimalik 3. peatüki „Päritolureeglid ja -menetlused“
kohaselt päritolustaatusega toodetena identifitseerida. Sellisel juhul peab dokumendis, mille alusel
päritolukinnitus koostatakse, olema märgitud kauba eksportija.
5. Päritolukinnituse sõnastus peab olema kooskõlas 3-B lisas „Päritolukinnituse tekst“ esitatud
sõnastusega.
6. Päritolukinnitus ei tohiks sisaldada märget päritolustaatuseta kaupade kohta, mida
päritolukinnitus ei hõlma. Selline märge peaks olema esitatud arvel täpsusega, mis võimaldab
vältida arusaamatusi.
1 Need äridokumendid on näiteks kaubaga kaasas olev kättetoimetamisteatis või pakkeleht.
& /et 2
7. Päritolukinnitused, mis on esitatud arvete või äridokumentide valguskoopiatel, on
vastuvõetavad tingimusel, et sellistel kinnitustel on eksportija allkiri samadel tingimustel kui
originaalil.
8. Arve või äridokumendi tagaküljel esitatud päritolukinnitus on vastuvõetav.
9. Arve eraldi lehel koostatud päritolukinnitus on vastuvõetav tingimusel, et see leht on selgelt
arve osa. Täiendavat vormi ei tohi kasutada.
10. Päritolukinnitus, mis on koostatud etiketil ja lisatakse hiljem arvele, on vastuvõetav, kui ei ole
kahtlust, et etiketi on kinnitanud eksportija. Näiteks juhul kui eksportija allkiri ulatub üle etiketi ja
arve.

C JAGU
Kvalifikatsiooni tunnustamise neli etappi
14. Kvalifikatsiooni tunnustamise lihtsustamiseks ja hõlbustamiseks tuleks kaaluda protsessi, mis
koosneb järgmisest neljast etapist.
Esimene etapp: samaväärsuse kontrollimine
15. Läbirääkimisi pidavad üksused peaksid kontrollima reguleeritud kutsealaga hõlmatud
tegevuse ulatuse või kvalifikatsiooni üldist samaväärsust oma vastavates jurisdiktsioonides.
16. Kvalifikatsiooni kontrollimise käigus tuleks koguda kogu asjakohane teave tegutsemisõiguste
ulatuse kohta, mis on seotud seadusest tuleneva pädevusega teatud kutsealal tegutseda, või
kvalifikatsiooni kohta, mida nõutakse vastavates jurisdiktsioonides konkreetsel reguleeritud
kutsealal tegutsemiseks.
& /et 8
17. Läbirääkimisi pidavad üksused peaksid määrama kindlaks:
a) reguleeritud kutsealal tegutsemise õigustega hõlmatud tegevusvaldkonnad või
tegevusvaldkondade rühmad ja
b) kummaski jurisdiktsioonis nõutava kvalifikatsiooni, mille hulka võivad kuuluda järgmised
elemendid:
i) minimaalne nõutav haridustase, näiteks vastuvõtunõuded, õpingute kestus ja läbitud
õppeained;
ii) minimaalsed nõutavad kogemused, näiteks praktilise koolituse või enne litsentsimist
teatud kutsealal järelevalve all tegutsemise asukoht, kestus ja tingimused, või eetika- ja
distsiplinaarstandardite raamistik;
iii) sooritatud eksamid, eriti kutsealase pädevusega seotud eksamid;
iv) mil määral ühe jurisdiktsiooni kvalifikatsiooni teises jurisdiktsioonis tunnustatakse ning
& /et 9
v) kvalifikatsioon, mida kummagi jurisdiktsiooni asjakohased asutused on valmis
tunnustama, näiteks loetledes väljastatavad diplomid või tunnistused või viidates
konkreetsetele miinimumnõuetele, mille täitmist peavad kinnitama päritolukoha
jurisdiktsiooni asjakohased asutused, sealhulgas sellele, kas teatavat kvalifikatsiooni
omades on võimalik saada tunnustus tegutsemiseks mõnes tegevuse ulatusega hõlmatud
tegevusvaldkonnas, aga mitte teistes, näiteks haridustase, õpingute kestus, põhiained,
üldained ja valdkonnad.
18. Reguleeritud kutsealal tegutsemise õiguste ulatus või kvalifikatsioon on üldjoontes
samaväärne, kui selles ei esine jurisdiktsioonide vahel märkimisväärseid erinevusi.
Teine etapp: märkimisväärsete erinevuste hindamine
19. Reguleeritud kutsealal tegutsemiseks nõutava kvalifikatsiooni ulatus erineb märkimisväärselt,
juhul kui jurisdiktsioonide vahel on:
a) suuri erinevusi olulistes teadmistes või
b) suuri erinevusi väljaõppe kestuses või sisus.
20. Tegevuse ulatus erineb märkimisväärselt, juhul kui:
a) üks või mitu kutsealaga hõlmatud tegevusvaldkonda ei moodusta päritolujurisdiktsioonis
vastava kutseala osa;
& /et 10
b) nende tegevusvaldkondade puhul nõutakse vastuvõtvas jurisdiktsioonis eriväljaõpet ja
c) nende tegevusvaldkondade puhul vastuvõtvas jurisdiktsioonis pakutav väljaõpe hõlmab
märksa teistsuguseid valdkondi kui need, mis on hõlmatud taotleja kvalifikatsiooniga.
Kolmas etapp: samaväärsusmeetmed
21. Kui läbirääkimisi pidavad üksused leiavad, et kutsealal tegutsemise õiguste ulatus või
kvalifikatsioon erineb jurisdiktsioonide vahel märkimisväärselt, võivad nad selle erinevuse
vähendamiseks määrata kindlaks samaväärsusmeetmed.
22. Samaväärsusmeetmed võivad väljenduda muu hulgas kohanemisajas või, kui seda nõutakse,
sobivustestis.
23. Samaväärsusmeetmed peaksid olema proportsionaalsed selle märkimisväärse erinevusega,
mida nendega püütakse ületada. Samuti peaksid läbirääkimisi pidavad üksused enne
samaväärsusmeetme kindlaksmääramist hindama päritolujurisdiktsioonis omandatud praktilist
erialast töökogemust, et näha, kas see on piisav, et jurisdiktsioonidevahelist märkimisväärset
erinevust tegutsemisõiguste ulatuses või kvalifikatsioonis täielikult või osaliselt korvata.
& /et 11
Neljas etapp: tunnustamistingimuste kindlaksmääramine
24. Kui reguleeritud kutsealal tegutsemise õiguste ulatuse või kvalifikatsiooni üldise
samaväärsuse hindamine on lõpule viidud, peaksid läbirääkimisi pidavad üksused määrama
vastastikuse tunnustamise lepingus kindlaks:
a) reguleeritud kutsealal tegutsemiseks vajaliku seadusest tuleneva pädevuse;
b) reguleeritud kutsealaga jaoks vajaliku kvalifikatsiooni;
c) samaväärsusmeetmete vajaduse;
d) mil määral võib erialane töökogemus märkimisväärseid erinevusi korvata ja
e) samaväärsusmeetmete kirjelduse, sh kas kasutatakse kohanemisaega või sobivustesti.

sidusettevõtja.
7 Kui sidusettevõtja loomise või tegevuse alustamise kuupäeva tõttu puudub teave viimase
kolme aasta käibe kohta, siis piisab sellest, kui ettevõtja näitab, eelkõige äriprognooside abil,
et käesolevas märkuses osutatud käive on usaldusväärne.

kelle suhtes ei kohaldata nimetatud direktiivi, on sidusettevõtja mis tahes ettevõtja, kellele
hankeüksusel on otseselt või kaudselt valitsev mõju või kellel võib olla valitsev mõju
hankeüksusele või kellele võib koos hankeüksusega valitsevat mõju avaldada teine ettevõtja
tulenevalt omandist, rahalisest osalusest või ettevõtja tegevust reguleerivatest eeskirjadest.

E JAO SELGITAVAD MÄRKUSED
1. Mehhiko teeb kaubandusnõukogule ettepaneku muuta käesolevat jagu, et ühtlustada hiljemalt
viie aasta jooksul pärast käesoleva lepingu jõustumist NAFTA ühisel klassifitseerimissüsteemil
põhinevat klassifikatsiooni ÜRO ajutisel ühtsel tooteklassifikaatoril põhineva CPC-koodiga.
Kaubandusnõukogu võtab esitatud muudatusettepanekud vastu otsusega.
2. 21. peatükki „Riigihanked“ ei kohaldata riiklike rajatiste käitamise suhtes kontsessioonide
alusel.

Defensa Nacionali (Kaitseministeerium) ja Secretaría de Marina (Mereministeerium) soetatud
kaupadega, mida 21. peatükk „Riigihanked“ ei hõlma.
4. Suurema selguse huvides olgu märgitud, et 21. peatükiga hõlmatud teenuste osutamise suhtes
kohaldatakse seoses teenuste piiriülese osutamisega 11. peatükki „Piiriülene teenustekaubandus“,
12. peatükki „Füüsiliste isikute ajutine kohalolek ärilisel eesmärgil“ ja 18. peatükki

AVALIKU JA ERASEKTORI PARTNERLUSE PROJEKTID
1. Käesolevas lisas kasutatakse järgmisi mõisteid:
„avaliku ja erasektori partnerluse projektid“ (edaspidi „avaliku ja erasektori partnerluse projektid“)
– projektid, millega osutatakse teenuseid avalikule sektorile, hulgimüüjatele, vahendajatele või
lõpptarbijatele ja mida rakendatakse avaliku sektori asutuse ja eraettevõtja vahelise pikaajalise
lepingulise suhte kaudu1 ning mille puhul taristu paneb täielikult või osaliselt välja eraettevõtja.
1 Suurema selguse huvides olgu öeldud, et kõigi avaliku ja erasektori partnerluse projektidega
kaasneb projektide eri etappides riskide jaotamine avaliku ja erasektori vahel.
& /et 113
2. A ja C jaos loetletud hankeüksuste sõlmitud avaliku ja erasektori partnerluse projektide suhtes
kohaldatakse 21. peatükki „Riigihanked“.
3. Punkti 2 kohaselt hõlmatud avaliku ja erasektori partnerluse projektide suhtes ei kohaldata
artikli 21.6 „Teated“ lõiget 4 ja artiklit 21.17 „Siseriiklik vaidlustusmenetlus“.
4. Avaliku ja erasektori partnerluse projektide omaalgatuslike ettepanekute hindamisel kohaldab
Mehhiko oma õigusakte ja kohtleb Euroopa Liidu ettevõtteid samamoodi nagu Mehhiko ettevõtteid.
G JAO SELGITAVAD MÄRKUSED
1. Avaliku ja erasektori partnerluse projekte võib kasutada tegevuste puhul, mille puhul
Mehhiko õigus lubab erasektori osalemist ja millega seotud teenuste osutamiseks on vaja saada
litsents, luba või kontsessioon.
2. Olenemata 21. peatükist „Riigihanked“ võivad A jaos loetletud üksused kooskõlas Mehhiko
õigusega nõuda, et võitnud pakkuja asutaks avaliku ja erasektori partnerluse projektide
väljatöötamiseks ja haldamiseks kohaliku üksuse.
3. Avaliku ja erasektori partnerluse projektide raames võivad hankeüksused kasutada piiratud
pakkumismenetlust vastavalt tingimustele, mis on sätestatud artiklis 21.12 „Piiratud
pakkumismenetlus“ ning õigusakti „Ley de Asociaciones Público Privadas“ (avaliku ja erasektori
ühenduste seadus) artiklis 64, nagu seda on muudetud 21. aprillil 2016 õigusaktiga „Decreto por el
que se reforman y derogan diversas disposiciones de la Ley de Asociaciones Público Privadas“
(dekreet, millega muudetakse ja tühistatakse avaliku ja erasektori ühenduste seaduse mitmeid

4. 21. peatükki „Riigihanked“ kohaldatakse ehita - käita - anna üle - tüüpi lepingute ja avaliku
sektori ehitustööde kontsessioonilepingute suhtes ainult juhul, kui need lepingud on hõlmatud G
jaoga „Avaliku ja erasektori partnerlusprojektid“.
Hankelepingute vabastamine lepingu alt
5. Olenemata 21. peatükist „Riigihanked“ võib Mehhiko vabastada hankelepingud 21. peatükis
„Riigihanked“ sätestatud kohustustest järgmistel tingimustel:
a) vabastatud hankelepingute koguväärtus ei tohi ületada 2 328 000 000 USA dollarit Mehhiko
peeso ekvivalendina ühel kalendriaastal alates käesoleva lepingu jõustumise kuupäevast ning
kõigi hankeüksuste peale kokku, kaasa arvatud PEMEX ja CFE;
b) käesoleva punkti kohaselt ühel aastal vabastatavate ühe FSC klassi (või muu lepinguosaliste
vahel kokku lepitud klassifikatsioonisüsteemi rubriigi) alla kuuluvate hankelepingute
kogumaksumus ei tohi ületada 10 % nende lepingute kogumaksumusest, mida võib käesoleva
lõike alusel kõnealusel aastal vabastada;
& /et 116
c) ükski üksus, mille suhtes kohaldatakse alapunkti a, ei tohi ühelgi kalendriaastal vabastada
lepinguid maksumuses, mis on suurem kui 20 % nende lepingute kogumaksumusest, mida
võib kõnealusel aastal vabastada, ning
d) PEMEXi ja CFE poolt vabastatud lepingute kogumaksumus ei tohi ühelgi kalendriaastal
ületada 466 000 000 USA dollarit Mehhiko peeso ekvivalendina.
6. Alates käesoleva lepingu jõustumise aastale järgneva kalendriaasta jaanuarist kohandatakse
punktis 5 USA dollarites väljendatud summasid igal aastal kumulatiivse inflatsiooniga, võttes
aluseks USA SKP kaudse hinnadeflaatori või Majandusnõustajate Nõukogu poolt väljaandes
„Economic Indicators“ selle asemel avaldatava majandusnäitajate indeksi.
Dollarites väljendatud summad, mida on korrigeeritud kumulatiivse inflatsiooniga iga 2018. aastale
järgneva kalendriaasta jaanuari seisuga, on võrdsed algsete dollarites väljendatud summadega, mida
on korrutatud kõnesoleva aasta jaanuaris kehtiva USA SKP kaudse hinnadeflaatori või
Majandusnõustajate Nõukogu poolt väljaandes „Economic Indicators“ selle asemel avaldatava
majandusnäitajate indeksi ning 2018. aasta jaanuaris kehtinud USA SKP kaudse hinnadeflaatori või
Majandusnõustajate Nõukogu poolt väljaandes „Economic Indicators“ selle asemel avaldatud
majandusnäitajate indeksi suhtega, tingimusel et kõnealusel hinnadeflaatoril on sama baasaasta.
Saadud kohandatud summad dollarites ümardatakse lähima miljoni dollarini. Mehhiko teatab
Euroopa Liidule kohandatud summad dollarites hiljemalt kohandamise jõustumise aasta jaanuari
jooksul.
& /et 117
7. Kui Mehhiko ületab ühel aastal selliste lepingute kogumaksumuse, mille ta võib punkti 5
kohaselt vabastada, konsulteerib Mehhiko Euroopa Liiduga, et leppida kokku täiendavate
hankevõimaluste vormis hüvitises järgmiseks aastaks. Konsultatsioonid ei piira teise lepinguosalise
õigusi, mis tulenevad 31. peatükist „Vaidluste lahendamine“.
PEMEXi ja CFE kohaliku sisendi nõuded
8. Olenemata 21. peatükist „Riigihanked“ võivad PEMEX ja CFE kehtestada kohaliku sisendi
nõude, mis ei tohi ületada:
a) 40 % töömahukate kasutusvalmis või suurte integreeritud projektide puhul või
b) 20 % kapitalimahukate kasutusvalmis või suurte integreeritud projektide puhul.
9. Käesoleva lõike kohaldamisel tähendab „kasutusvalmis või suur integreeritud projekt“ ehitus-
, tarne- või paigaldusprojekti, mida teostab peatöövõtja vastavalt üksuse sätestatud tingimustele,
mille kohaselt:
a) peatöövõtjal on õigus valida üldtöövõtjaid või alltöövõtjaid;
b) ei PEMEX ega CFE ei rahasta projekti;
& /et 118
c) kohustuste täitmata jätmisega seotud riskid kannab peatöövõtja ning
d) rajatist hakkab käitama üksus või kolmas osaleja üksusega sõlmitud hankelepingu alusel.
10. Kui Mehhiko rahvusvahelise lepingu või õigusnormi või poliitika kohase PEMEXi või CFE
otsusega lepingute maksumuse protsendimäära alandatakse, asendatakse kõnealused
protsendimäärad alaliselt. Käesoleva märkuse rakendamisel ei kohtle Mehhiko hankeüksused
Euroopa Liidu pakkujaid vähem soodsalt kui Mehhiko või mõne kolmanda riigi pakkujaid.
11. Mõiste „kohalik sisend“ hõlmab kulusid Mehhikos toodetud komponentidele,
alamkomponentidele ja toorainetele, sisaldades kulusid tööle või muudele seotud teenustele, nagu
müügijärgsed ja hooldusteenused, nagu on pakkumuses kindlaks määratud. Mõiste hõlmab ka kõiki
kulusid, mis on seotud toodete lõpliku koostamisega Mehhikos. Pakkujal on õigus määrata
hanketeates sätestatud võimaluste piires ise kindlaks, milline osa lepingu maksumusest täidetakse
Mehhikos loodud väärtusega.
12. Rahastamiskõlblikud kulud peavad võimaldama edukale pakkujale mõistlikku paindlikkust, et
sõlmida leping Mehhiko tarnijatega konkurentsivõimelistel tingimustel, mis hõlmavad sealjuures
hinda ja kvaliteeti. PEMEX ja CFE ei tohi lepinguid osadeks jagada nii, et see piirab pakkuja jaoks
rahastamiskõlblike kulude valikut.
& /et 119
13. Hankeüksused märgivad nii hanketeates kui ka lepingus kohaliku sisendi nõuded ja nendega
seotud tingimused selgelt ja objektiivselt ära.
14. Kümme aastat pärast käesoleva lepingu jõustumist esitab Mehhiko artikli 33.4 „Allkomiteed
ja muud organid“ lõike 1 punkti j alusel moodustatud riigihangete allkomiteele aruande käesoleva
punkti kohaldamise kohta.
15. Ühtegi 21. peatüki „Riigihanked“ sätet ei tõlgendata nii, et see nõuaks PEMEXilt
riskijagamise lepingute sõlmimist.
Künniste kohandamise valem
16. Käesoleva lisa A ja C jaos USA dollarites väljendatud künniseid kohandatakse igal
kalendriaastal inflatsiooniga vastavalt USMCA 13. peatüki „Riigihanked“ 13-A lisa „Mehhiko
loend“ G jao punktis 1 sätestatud piirmäärade kohandamise valemiga Ameerika Ühendriikide jaoks
kindlaksmääratud määrale.
Mehhiko teatab Euroopa Liidule Ameerika Ühendriikide poolt kindlaks määratud inflatsioonimäära
hiljemalt kohanduse jõustumisele eelneva aasta 18. novembriks.
& /et 120
17. Mehhiko arvutab ja konverteerib künniste väärtuse Mehhiko peesodesse, kasutades Banco de
México (Mehhiko keskpank) ümberarvestuskurssi. Ümberarvestuskursiks on Mehhiko peeso
väärtus USA dollarites iga aasta 1. detsembril ja 1. juunil või neile järgneval esimesel tööpäeval. 1.
detsembri ümberarvestuskurssi kohaldatakse järgmise aasta 1. jaanuarist kuni 30. juunini ning 1.
juuni ümberarvestuskurssi kohaldatakse sama aasta 1. juulist kuni 31. detsembrini. Enne, kui
Mehhiko hakkab Mehhiko peeso ümberarvestuskursi ja kindlaksmääratud künniseid kohaldama,
teeb ta need teatavaks Euroopa Liidule.

EUROOPA LIIDU
VASTUVÄITEMENETLUSE PÕHIELEMENDID
Kui Euroopa Liit viib läbi artiklis 25.33 osutatud vastuväitemenetluse, tagab ta järgmise.
1. Kõiki õigustatud huvi omavaid füüsilisi ja juriidilisi isikuid, välja arvatud Mehhikos asutatud
või seal elavaid isikuid, kutsutakse sellekohase teate avaldamisega üles esitama nõuetekohaselt
põhjendatud avaldust, et väljendada vastuseisu asjaomase geograafilise tähise kavandatavale
kaitsele. Teade peab sisaldama kaitstava geograafilise tähise nimetust (nimetusi) koos
transkriptsiooniga ladina tähestikus ja tootetüüpi.
2. Euroopa Komisjon peab vastuväited kätte saama hiljemalt kaks kuud pärast teate avaldamist.
& /et 1
3. Vastuväited on vastuvõetavad ainult siis, kui need saadakse kätte ülal nimetatud tähtaja
jooksul ja neist nähtub, et
a) nimetuse kavandatav kaitse oleks vastuolus taimesordi, sealhulgas viinamarjasordi, või
loomatõu nimega ning võib seetõttu eksitada tarbijat kauba tegeliku päritolu suhtes;
b) on olemas homonüümne nimetus, mis võib tekitada tarbijas eksiarvamuse, et kaup on pärit
muult territooriumilt;
c) nimetuse kavandatav kaitse võiks kaubamärgi mainet ja tuntust ning kasutamise kestust
arvesse võttes tarbijat kauba tegeliku olemuse suhtes eksitada;
d) nimetuse kavandatav kaitse ohustaks kaupa, mille nimetust või kaubamärk on täielikult või
osaliselt identne ja mida on õiguspäraselt turustatud vähemalt viis aastat enne teatise
avaldamist, või
e) vastuväite esitaja teabe kohaselt on nimetus, mille kaitsmist ja registreerimist kaalutakse,
üldnimetus.
4. Eespool osutatud vastuväitemenetluse elemente hinnatakse Euroopa Liidu territooriumist
lähtuvalt; intellektuaalomandi õiguste korral hinnatakse neid vaid territooriumil või
territooriumidel, kus need õigused on kaitstud.

B JAGU
MEHHIKO VASTUVÄITEMENETLUSE PÕHIELEMENDID
Kui Mehhiko viib läbi artiklis 25.33 osutatud vastuväitemenetluse, tagab ta järgmise.
Õigustatud huviga isikutel on kooskõlas Mehhiko seadustega õigus esitada vastuväiteid
geograafilise tähise kavandatavale kaitsele. Vastuväidete esitamise kriteeriumid avaldatakse
avalikus väljaandes ja need on järgmised:
1. nimetus on identne või segadust tekitaval määral sarnane („semejante en grado de confusion“)
sama või sarnase kauba kaitstud päritolunimetuse või geograafilise tähisega;
2. nimetus on identne või segadust tekitaval määral sarnane („semejante en grado de confusion“)
nimetusega, mille suhtes on eelnevalt esitatud heas usus taotlus, millega soovitakse seda sama
või sarnase kauba jaoks päritolunimetuse või geograafilise tähisena kaitsta;
3. nimetus on üldnimetus või seda kasutatakse Mehhiko territooriumil kauba puhul, mille jaoks
kaitset taotletakse, või sellest on saanud tava- või kaubanduskeeles kõnealuse kauba osa
tavapärane või üldine nimetus;
& /et 3
4. kõiki selle omadusi arvesse võttes kujutab nimetus endast kaitstud toote kirjeldust. Need
omadused hõlmavad kirjeldavaid või viitavaid sõnu, millega tavaliselt tähistatakse
kaubandustegevuse käigus kauba liiki, kvaliteeti, kvantiteeti, koostist, sihtkohta või väärtust;
5. nimetus on identne või segadust tekitaval määral sarnane („semejante en grado de confusion“)
registreeritud kaubamärgiga või Mehhikos registreeritud ärinimega, mida kasutatakse sama
või sarnase kauba puhul;
6. nimetus on identne või segadust tekitaval määral sarnane („semejante en grado de confusion“)
nimetusega, mille suhtes on eelnevalt esitatud heas usus taotlus kaubamärgi või ärinime
registreerimiseks;
7. nimetus on tõlge või transliteratsioon päritolunimetusest või geograafilisest tähisest, mida ei
saa kaitse alla võtta, ning
8. nimi on vastuolus taimesordi, sealhulgas veiniviinamarjasordi, või loomatõu nimega.

Teated
2. Iga teade, kirjalik esildis või muu dokument:
a) kui selle on koostanud vahekohus, saadetakse samal ajal mõlemale lepinguosalisele;

5. Kui dokumendi kättetoimetamise kuupäev langeb puhkepäevale või mis tahes muule päevale,
mil lepinguosaliste poolt artikli 31.36 „Vaidluste lahendamise menetluse haldamine“ kohaselt
määratud asutused on ametlikult suletud, loetakse dokument kättetoimetatuks järgmisel tööpäeval.
Punktides 16 ja 17 osutatud korralduslikul kohtumisel esitab kumbki lepinguosaline nimekirja oma
puhkepäevadest, mis tahes muudest päevadest, mil tema asutused on ametlikult suletud, ja sellise
asutuse tavapärasest tööajast. Kumbki lepinguosaline ajakohastab kõnealust nimekirja
vahekohtumenetluse ajal.
Vahekohtu liikmete nimetamine
6. Artikli 31.7 „Vahekohtu koosseis“ lõigete 6 ja 7 kohaldamisel võivad vahekohtu koosseisu
ametisse nimetada järgmised isikud:
a) artikli 10.31 „Apellatsioonikohus“ lõikes 8 osutatud investeerimiskohtu süsteemi
apellatsioonikohtu esimees või
b) alalise vahekohtu peasekretär.
& /et 4
7. Artikli 31.7 „Vahekohtu koosseis“ lõigete 6 ja 7 kohase valiku tegemisel valib ametisse
nimetav asutus või ametiisik loosi teel vahekohtu liikme selle lepinguosalise alamnimekirjast, kelle
vastu kaebus esitati, nagu on osutatud artiklis 31.8 „Vahekohtu liikmete nimekirjad“, või vahekohtu
eesistuja eesistuja ülesandeid täitvate isikute alamnimekirjast, mis on vastu võetud artikli 31.8
„Vahekohtu liikmete nimekirjad“ lõike 1 punkti c alusel. Ametisse nimetav asutus või ametiisik
järgib kõiki tingimusi, milles lepinguosalised võivad kokku leppida.
a) Ametisse nimetav asutus või ametiisik teatab lepinguosalistele viivitamata loosi teel valimise
kuupäeva, kellaaja ja koha. Lepinguosalised osalevad loosi teel valimise juures.
b) Ilma et see piiraks töökorra punkti 7 alapunkti a kohaldamist, tehakse loosi teel valik artikli
31.7 „Vahekohtu koosseis“ lõikes 6 sätestatud ajavahemiku jooksul kohal viibiva
lepinguosalise või kohal viibivate lepinguosaliste juuresolekul.
8. Artikli 31.7 „Vahekohtu koosseis“ lõigete 4, 6 ja 7 kohaldamisel lähtutakse järgmistest
põhimõtetest, kui mõni artikli 31.8 „Vahekohtu liikmete nimekirjad“ lõikes 1 osutatud
alamnimekirjadest:
a) ei ole kaubanduskomitee poolt vastu võetud, valitakse vahekohtu liige, vahekohtu liikmed või
eesistuja nende isikute hulgast, kelle üks või mõlemad lepinguosalised on kõnealusesse
alamnimekirja määranud ja kelle nime teisele lepinguosalisele kirjalikult teada andnud, või
b) ei sisalda enam vähemalt viit isikut, valitakse vahekohtu liige, vahekohtu liikmed või
vahekohtu eesistuja nende isikute hulgast, kes on alamnimekirja jäänud.
& /et 5
9. Kohe pärast valiku tegemist teatab kaebuse esitanud lepinguosalise või lepinguosaliste ühiselt
määratud asutus kirjalikult igale isikule, kes on valitud vahekohtu liikmeks või vahekohtu
eesistujaks, tema valimisest ja edastab talle 31-B lisas esitatud vahekohtu liikmete ja vahendajate
tegevusjuhendi koopia. Isik kinnitab lepinguosaliste määratud asutusele viie päeva jooksul pärast
kuupäeva, mil teda teavitati tema nimetamisest, et ta on valmis täitma vahekohtus liikme või
eesistuja ülesandeid, ning esitab 31-B lisa „Vahekohtu liikmete ja vahendajate tegevusjuhend“
punktide 6–9 „Avalikustamiskohustus“ kohase avalikustamisavalduse.
10. Kui kolm valitud vahekohtu liiget on kinnitanud, et neil on võimalik vahekohtu töös osaleda,
teavitab asjaomane määratud asutus viivitamata lepinguosalisi vahekohtu koosseisust.
Vahekohtu liikmete nimekirjad
11. Kumbki lepinguosaline teatab hiljemalt kahe kuu jooksul pärast käesoleva lepingu jõustumist
teisele lepinguosalisele kirjalikult isikud, kelle ta määrab artikli 31.8 „Vahekohtu liikmete
nimekirjad“ lõikes 1 osutatud alamnimekirjadesse.
12. Kui ta leiab, et teise lepinguosalise poolt artikli 31.8 „Vahekohtu liikmete nimekirjad“ lõike 1
punktides a ja b osutatud alamnimekirja määratud isik ei vasta artiklis 31.9 „Vahekohtu liikmetele
esitatavad nõuded“ esitatud nõuetele, võib lepinguosaline esitada 30 päeva jooksul pärast punktis 11
osutatud teate saamist selle isiku suhtes vastuväite. 15 päeva jooksul pärast vastuväitest teatamist
arutavad lepinguosalised selle üle, kas isik vastab kõnealustele nõuetele. Lahkarvamuse korral
eemaldab lepinguosaline isiku, kelle vastu teine lepinguosaline on vastuväite esitanud,
alamnimekirjast ja määrab sinna uue isiku.
& /et 6
13. 30 päeva jooksul pärast punkti 11 kohase teate esitamist lepivad lepinguosalised kummagi
lepinguosalise määratud isikute põhjal kokku alamnimekirjas, mis sisaldab isikuid, kes hakkavad
täitma artikli 31.8 „Vahekohtu liikmete nimekirjad“ lõike 1 punktis c osutatud vahekohtu eesistuja
ülesandeid.
14. Lepinguosaline võib igal ajal otsustada oma alamnimekirja muuta ning sel juhul teavitab ta
teist lepinguosalist kirjalikult enda määratud isikutest. Sellisel juhul kohaldatakse mutatis mutandis
punktis 12 osutatud menetlust. Lepinguosalised võivad vastastikusel kokkuleppel muuta ka
alamnimekirja isikutest, kes hakkavad tegutsema eesistujana.
15. Kaubanduskomitee võtab vastu lepinguosaliste alamnimekirjade muudatused hiljemalt kuus
kuud pärast punktis 14 osutatud teate saamist.
Korralduslik kohtumine
16. Kui lepinguosalised ei lepi kokku teisiti, kohtuvad nad vahekohtuga seitsme päeva jooksul
pärast vahekohtu moodustamist, et määrata kindlaks küsimused, mida lepinguosalised või
vahekohus peavad asjakohaseks, sealhulgas:
a) menetluse ajakava, sealhulgas esildiste esitamise täpsed kuupäevad ja suulise istungi kuupäev;
b) vahekohtu liikmetele makstav tasu ja nende kulude hüvitamine, mis peavad olema kooskõlas
WTO normidega, ning
& /et 7
c) assistentidele makstav tasu. Ühegi vahekohtu liikme assistendi ega assistentide tasu
kogusumma ei tohi ületada 50 % asjaomase vahekohtu liikme tasust.
17. Vahekohtu liikmed ja lepinguosaliste esindajad võivad osaleda kohtumisel mis tahes
sidevahendi kaudu.
Kirjalikud esildised
18. Kaebuse esitanud lepinguosaline esitab oma esmase kirjaliku esildise hiljemalt 20 päeva
pärast vahekohtu moodustamise kuupäeva. Lepinguosaline, kelle vastu kaebus esitati, esitab oma
esialgse kirjaliku esildise hiljemalt 20 päeva jooksul pärast kaebuse esitanud lepinguosalise
kirjaliku esildise kättetoimetamise kuupäeva. Kaebuse esitanud lepinguosaline esitab oma
ümberlükkava kirjaliku esildise hiljemalt 20 päeva jooksul pärast kaebuse esitanud lepinguosalise
esialgse kirjaliku esildise esitamiseks ette nähtud kuupäeva. Lepinguosaline, kelle vastu kaebus
esitati, esitab soovi korral oma ümberlükkava kirjaliku esildise hiljemalt 20 päeva jooksul pärast
kaebuse esitanud lepinguosalise ümberlükkava kirjaliku esildise esitamiseks ette nähtud kuupäeva.
Vahekohtu töö
19. Vahekohtu eesistuja juhatab kõiki selle istungeid. Vahekohus võib delegeerida eesistujale
volitused teha haldus- ja menetlusotsuseid.
& /et 8
20. Kui 31. peatükis „Vaidluste lahendamine“ või käesolevas töökorras ei ole sätestatud teisiti,
võib vahekohus tegutseda mis tahes viisil.

kirjaliku esildise või suulise avalduse kirjaliku versiooni või vahekohtu taotlusele või küsimusele
kirjaliku vastuse, mis sisaldab konfidentsiaalset teavet, esitab ta 15 päeva jooksul pärast sellise
dokumendi esitamise kuupäeva ka mittekonfidentsiaalse versiooni, mida saab avalikustada.
49. Miski käesolevas töökorras ei keela lepinguosalisel avaldada üldsusele oma seisukohti sellises
ulatuses, et teise lepinguosalise esitatud teabele viidates ei avalda ta teise lepinguosalise poolt
konfidentsiaalseks tunnistatud teavet.

vahekohus küsib ekspertide arvamust või tehnilist nõu, teavitab ta sellest ka lepinguosalisi.
Hiljemalt 15 päeva pärast sellise teate saamist konsulteerib vahekohus lepinguosalistega, et teha
kindlaks, kas arvamuse või tehnilise nõu küsimine ekspertidelt on põhjendatud, ning leppida kokku
arvamuse või tehnilise nõu taotlemise tingimustes, sealhulgas vajaduse korral ekspertides, kellelt
tuleks arvamust või tehnilist nõu küsida.

& /et 2
3. Et tagada vaidluste lahendamise mehhanismi usaldusväärsus ja erapooletus, ei tohi ükski
vahekohtu liige:

või tunduda takistavat vahekohtu liikme ülesannete nõuetekohast täitmist;
b) kasutada oma ametiseisundit vahekohtus oma isiklike või erahuvide edendamiseks, vältides

4. Vahekohtu liige väldib selliste suhete sõlmimist ja rahaliste huvide tekkimist, mis võivad
mõjutada tema sõltumatust või erapooletust või mis võivad anda alust ebasobiva käitumise või

Avalikustamiskohustus
5. Enne seda, kui artikli 31.7 „Vahekohtu koosseis“ kohaselt vahekohtu liikmeks valitud
kandidaat nõustub enda vahekohtu liikmeks nimetamisega, avalikustab ta kõik huvid, suhted ja
küsimused, mis võivad mõjutada tema sõltumatust või erapooletust või mis võivad vahekohtu

7. Kui vahekohtu liige on ametisse määratud , teeb ta jätkuvalt mõistlikes piires kõik endast
sõltuva, et selgitada välja kõik punktis 5 viidatud huvid, suhted ja küsimused, ja avalikustab need.
Punkti 5 kohane avalikustamiskohustus on pidev ülesanne, mis nõuab vahekohtu liikmelt kõigi
selliste huvide, suhete ja vaidluste avalikustamist, mis võivad tekkida menetluse mis tahes etapis.
8. Kandidaadid ja vahekohtu liikmed edastavad lepinguosalistele käesoleva tegevusjuhendi

täitma ja ta täidab neid põhjalikult, kiiresti, ausalt ja hoolikalt kogu menetluse jooksul.
11. Vahekohtu liige käsitleb üksnes neid küsimusi, mis vahekohtu menetluses tõstatatakse ja mis

astuvad kõik vajalikud sammud tagamaks, et nad on nendest kohustustest teadlikud ja täidavad
neid.
13. Vahekohtu liige ei astu menetlusega seoses ühepoolsetesse kontaktidesse.
Endiste vahekohtu liikmete kohustused
14. Kõik endised vahekohtu liikmed väldivad tegevust, mis võib tekitada mulje, et nad olid oma
ülesannete täitmisel erapoolikud või said vahekohtu otsusest kasu.
15. Endine vahekohtu liige täidab punktides 16–18 sätestatud kohustusi.
Konfidentsiaalsus
16. Vahekohtu liige ei avalikusta kunagi talle määratud menetlusega seotud või sellise menetluse
käigus saadud mitteavalikku teavet. Vahekohtu liige ei avalikusta ega kasuta mitte mingil juhul seda
teavet selleks, et saada isiklikku kasu, tuua kasu kellelegi teisele või kahjustada teiste isikute huve.
17. Vahekohtu liige ei avalikusta vahekohtu aruannet ega otsust ega nende osi enne selle
avaldamist kooskõlas 31. peatükiga „Vaidluste lahendamine“.

seisukohtade kohta ega tee avaldusi talle määratud menetluse või menetletavate vaidlusküsimuste
kohta. Kui vahekohus teeb otsuse häälteenamusega, ei avalikusta vahekohtu liige, milline
vahekohtu liige või liikmed on seotud vahekohtu menetluses enamuse ja vähemuse arvamusega.
Kulud
19. Iga vahekohtu liige peab arvestust menetlusele kulunud aja ja oma kulude kohta ning esitab
nende kohta lõpparuande, samuti peab ta arvestust oma assistentide ja haldustöötajate tööaja ja
kulude kohta.

With respect to Investment Liberalisation –National Treatment, Most-Favoured-Nation
Treatment:
In CY: The Council of Ministers may refuse to allow access to and exercise of the activities of
prospecting, exploration and exploitation of hydrocarbons to any entity which is effectively
controlled by Mexico or by nationals of Mexico or third country nationals. No entity may,
after the granting of an authorisation for the prospecting, exploration and production of
hydrocarbons, come under the direct or indirect control of Mexico or a national of Mexico
without the prior approval of the Council of Ministers. The Council of Ministers may refuse
to grant an authorisation for the prospecting, exploration and production of hydrocarbons to
an entity which is effectively controlled by Mexico or a third country or by a national of
Mexico or a third country, if Mexico or the third country does not grant entities of CY or
entities of Member States, in relation to the access to and exercise of the activities of
prospecting, exploring for and exploiting hydrocarbons, treatment comparable to that which
CY or the Member State grants entities of Mexico or that third country (ISIC 1110).
& /en 136
With respect to Investment Liberalisation – National Treatment, Most-Favoured-Nation
Treatment; and Cross-Border Trade in Services – Local Presence:
In SI: The exploration for and exploitation of mineral resources, including regulated mining
services, are subject to establishment in or citizenship of the EEA, the Swiss Confederation or
an Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) member, or of a third
country on condition of reciprocity. Compliance with the condition of reciprocity is verified
by the Ministry responsible for mining (ISIC 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, CPC 883, 8675).
With respect to Investment Liberalisation – National Treatment:
In NL: The exploration for and exploitation of hydrocarbons in NL is always performed
jointly by a private company and the public (limited) company designated by the Minister of
Economic Affairs. Articles 81 and 82 of the Mining Act stipulate that all shares in this
designated company must be directly or indirectly held by the Dutch State (ISIC rev 3.1 10,
3.1 11, 3.1 12, 3.1 13, 3.1 14).
With respect to Cross-Border Trade in Services – Local presence:
In FI: The exploration for and exploitation of mineral resources may be granted to a natural
person resident in the EEA or a juridical person established in the EEA. (ISIC Rev. 3.1 120,
CPC 5115, 883, 8675).
& /en 137
In SK: For mining, activities related to mining and geological activity, incorporation in a
Member State of the EU or of the EEA is required (no branching). Mining and prospecting
activities covered by Act of the Slovak Republic 44/1988 on protection and exploitation of
natural resources are regulated on a non-discriminatory basis, including through public policy
measures seeking to ensure the conservation and protection of natural resources and the
environment such as the authorisation or prohibition of certain mining technologies. For
greater certainty, those measures include the prohibition of the use of cyanide leaching in the
treatment or refining of minerals, the requirement of a specific authorisation in the case of
fracking for activities of prospecting, exploration or extraction of oil and gas, as well as prior
approval by local referendum in the case of nuclear or radioactive mineral resources. This
does not increase the non-conforming aspects of the existing measure for which the
reservation is taken (ISIC 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, CPC 5115, 7131, 883 and 8675).

& /en 183
Description: Investment Liberalisation and Cross-Border Trade in Services
The Nation has the direct, inalienable and imprescriptible ownership
of all hydrocarbons in the subsoil of its territory, including the
continental shelf and the exclusive economic zone located outside the
territorial sea and adjacent thereto, in strata or deposits, regardless of
their physical conditions. Only the Nation shall conduct the
exploration and production of hydrocarbons, through entitlements or
contracts. The exploration and production contracts shall invariably
stipulate that the hydrocarbons in the subsoil are property of the
Nation.
The SENER may award entitlements to PEMEX for the exploration
and production of hydrocarbons.
In order to perform the activities related to the entitlements for self-
development, PEMEX shall only execute service contracts with
private parties. For the activities related to the entitlements for mixed
development, PEMEX shall execute mixed contracts with private
parties, with a percentage of participation interest of PEMEX of no
less than forty percent.
& /en 184
The SENER shall establish the appropriate contract model for each
contractual area that undergoes a bidding process and is awarded in
accordance with the law; for which it may choose among other
contracting models such as services, profit-sharing, production-
sharing or licenses. For contracts of exploration and production,
PEMEX may enter into alliances or associations to participate in
bidding processes, but it may not enter into public-private partnership
contracts with private parties.
The SENER may establish a direct participation for PEMEX in the
contracts for exploration and production of hydrocarbons. The
SENER shall establish a mandatory participation of PEMEX in the
contracts for exploration and production of hydrocarbons when there
is a possibility to find a transboundary reservoir.
No bidding process shall be conducted in contracts for exploration and
production for Natural Gas for self-consumption contained in coal
seams and produced by it, which can be awarded directly to the
mining concession holders.
The exploration and production activities of hydrocarbons conducted
in the national territory through entitlements and exploration and
production contracts must comply with a minimum national content
percentage goal on average. This national content average goal will
not take into account exploration and production of hydrocarbons in
deep-water and ultra-deep water projects, which have different
national content requirements established by the SE with the opinion
of the SENER considering the characteristics of those activities.
The above mentioned mandate must comply with the methodology
established by the Ministry of Economy, and must consider that it
does not affect the competitive position of the PEMEX or any other
state productive enterprises and other economic agents developing
& /en 185
exploration and production of hydrocarbons.
& /en 186
The Federal Executive shall establish safeguard zones in the areas in
which the State decides to prohibit exploration and production
activities, different from protected natural areas in which entitlements
and contracts cannot be awarded.
The Mexican Government shall include within the conditions for the
entitlements and exploration and production contracts, as well as in
the permits, that under the same circumstances of prices, quality and
timely delivery, preference should be given to the purchase of
domestic goods and the contracting of domestic services, including the
training and hiring, at a technical and management level, of Mexican
nationals.
The activities of superficial exploration and recognition require an
authorisation issued by the SENER, which does not grant rights for
the exploration and production of hydrocarbons. The persons that have
obtained an entitlement or an exploration and production contract do
not require an authorisation for superficial exploration and recognition
in the areas covered by the entitlement or exploration and production
contract.
& /en 187
The SENER or the CNE shall establish the permit models for the
transportation, treatment, refining, processing, storage, distribution,
compression, liquefaction, decompression, regasification, sale to the
public, commercialisation, formulation and dispatch for self-
consumption of hydrocarbons (including natural gas), petroleum or
natural gas products (including gasoline and diesel), and
petrochemicals, as appropriate, as well as the management of
Integrated Systems, taking into account that permit-holders shall have
an enterprise incorporated under Mexican law and be domiciled in
Mexico. The permits for the exporting and importing of hydrocarbons
and petroleum or natural gas products shall be issued in accordance
with the Foreign Trade Law (Ley de Comercio Exterior), which
requires permit-holders to have an enterprise incorporated under
Mexican law and be domiciled in Mexico.

in these activities.
& /en 191
The State public enterprise may, contract with privates, among other
activities, the installation, maintenance, and expansion of the
infrastructure needed to provide the public service of transmission and

The SENER, with the opinion of the SE, may establish that, under the
same circumstances, including price equality, quality and timely
delivery, the contracts of the State public enterprise related to the
development of infrastructure projects, mixed investment and those
resulting from the mechanisms for the allocation of energy and
associated products entered into by the participants of the electricity
sector, shall give preference to the acquisition of national goods, and
the contracting of services of national origin, including the training
and hiring, at technical and management level, of persons of Mexican
nationality.
Where the private sector is allowed to participate in the other activities
of the electrical industry, under no circumstances will it be permitted
to take precedence over the State's public enterprise, whose essence is
to fulfil its social responsibility and guarantee the continuity and
accessibility of the public electricity service.
The State public enterprise must maintain at least fifty-four percent of
the average energy injected into the grid in a calendar year.
& /en 192
The private sector may participate in the electric power generation
process through mixed investment schemes, for which the State public
enterprise must have a direct or indirect participation in the project of
at least fifty-four percent.
The basic supply of electricity can only be provided by the State
public enterprise, at the lowest possible price.
Regarding all other corporate activities of the CFE and its subsidiary
enterprises, in accordance with the law of CFE, the Board of Directors
shall issue regulations for the acquisition, leasing, contracting of
services and execution of works. Among others, the Board may
require minimum national content percentages in accordance with the
nature of the contracting, the tariff regulation and the international
treaties to which Mexico is a signatory.
All permits granted under the Electric Sector Law shall be granted by

Appendix III-A
MARKET ACCESS COMMITMENTS
SCHEDULE OF THE EU
Sector or Subsector Limitations on Market Access
III-EU-1 – All sectors
Commercial presence With respect to Investment Liberalisation:
In the EU: Any Member State when selling or disposing of its equity
interests in, or the assets of, an existing state enterprise or an existing
governmental entity providing health, social or education services
(CPC 93, 92) may prohibit or impose limitations on the ownership of
those interests or assets, and on the ability of owners of those
interests or assets to control any resulting enterprise, by investors of
Mexico or their covered enterprises. With respect to that sale or other
disposition, any Member State may adopt or maintain any measure
limiting the number of suppliers.
With respect to Investment Liberalisation:
In the EU: Services considered as public utilities at national or local
level may be subject to public monopolies or to exclusive rights
granted to private operators.
& /en 8
Sector or Subsector Limitations on Market Access
Public utilities exist in sectors such as related scientific and technical
consulting services, research and development (R&D) services on
social sciences and humanities, technical testing and analysis
services, environmental services, health services, transport services
and services auxiliary to all modes of transport. Exclusive rights on
those services are often granted to private operators, for instance
operators with concessions from public authorities, subject to
specific service obligations. Given that public utilities often also exist
at the sub-central level, detailed and exhaustive sector-specific
scheduling is not practical. This reservation does not apply to
telecommunications and to computer and related services.
In BG: Certain economic activities related to the exploitation or use
of State or public property are subject to concessions granted under
the provisions of the Concessions Act. In commercial corporations in
which the State or a municipality holds a share in the capital
exceeding 50 %, any transactions for disposition of fixed assets of
the corporation, to conclude any contracts for acquisition of
participating interest, lease, joint activity, credit, securing of
receivables, as well as incurring any obligations arising under bills of
exchange, are subject to authorisation or permission by the
Privatisation Agency or other state or regional bodies, whichever is
the competent authority. This reservation does not apply to mining
and quarrying, which are subject to a separate reservation.
In HU: Commercial presence must take the form of a limited liability
company, joint-stock company or representative office. Initial entry
as a branch is not permitted except for financial services.
In IT: The acquisition of equity stakes of companies operating in the
fields of defence and national security, and the acquisition of
strategic assets in the fields of transport services, telecommunications
and energy, may be subject to the approval of the Presidency of the
Council of Ministers' Office.
& /en 9
Sector or Subsector Limitations on Market Access
In IT: The State may exercise certain special powers in enterprises
operating in the areas of defence and national security, and in certain
activities of strategic importance in the areas of energy, transport and
communications. This relates to all juridical persons carrying out
activities considered of strategic importance in the areas of defence
and national security, not only to privatised companies.
Where there is a threat of serious injury to the essential interests of
defence and national security, the Government has special powers to:
(a) impose specific conditions in the purchase of shares;
(b) veto the adoption of resolutions relating to special operations
such as transfers, mergers, splitting up, and changes of activity;
or
(c) reject the acquisition of shares, if the buyer seeks to hold a
level of participation in the capital that is likely to prejudice the
interests of defence and national security.
Any resolution, act and transaction (transfers, mergers, splitting up,
change of activity, termination) relating to strategic assets in the
areas of energy, transport and communications shall be notified by
the concerned company to the Prime Minister's office. In particular,
acquisitions by any natural or juridical person outside the EU that
give this person control over the company shall be notified.
The Prime Minister may exercise special powers to:
(a) veto any resolution, act and transaction that constitutes an
exceptional threat of serious injury to the public interest in the
security and operation of networks and supplies;
(b) impose specific conditions in order to guarantee the public
interest; or
(c) reject an acquisition in exceptional cases of risk to the essential
interests of the State.
& /en 10
Sector or Subsector Limitations on Market Access
The criteria on which to evaluate the real or exceptional threat of
serious injury and conditions and procedures for the exercise of the
special powers are laid down in the law.
In LT: The Government may review and impose restrictions in
relation to establishment and operation of covered enterprises of
strategic importance to national security with respect to ownership
(proportion of capital which may be held by private national or
foreign persons conforming to national security interests);
establishment and operation of covered enterprises, sectors and
facilities of strategic importance to national security; and procedures
and criteria for the determination of conformity of potential national
investors and potential enterprise participants).
Acquisition of real estate With respect to Investment Liberalisation:
In HU: Unbound for the acquisition of state-owned properties.
In DK: The acquisition of agricultural land by natural or legal
persons is governed by the Danish Agricultural Holdings Act, which
imposes restrictions on all persons, Danish or foreign, when
acquiring agricultural property. Accordingly, any natural or legal
person who wishes to acquire agricultural real property shall fulfil
the requirements set out in that Act.
Arms, munition and war With respect to Investment Liberalisation and Cross-Border Trade in
material Services:
In the EU: Unbound for the production or distribution of, or trade in,
arms, munition and war material. War material is limited to any
product which is solely intended and made for military use in
connection with the conduct of war or defence activities.

by bailiffs who are appointed by an official act of government (part
of CPC 861, part of 87902).
In CZ: Full admission to the Bar is required for the practice of legal
services, including representation before courts. Foreign lawyers
admitted to the Czech Bar Association shall be entitled to provide
legal services in the law of the country in which they obtained their
entitlement to provide legal services, and international law.
In DK: Requirements apply for the performance of legal services
under the title "advokat" (lawyer).4
In FR: Representation before the Cour de Cassation and Conseil
d'Etat is subject to quotas.
In HU: Foreign lawyers may provide legal advice on home country
and international law in partnership with a Hungarian lawyer or a law
firm. Commercial presence should take the form of partnership with
a Hungarian barrister (ügyvéd) or a barrister's office (ügyvédi iroda).
3 For greater certainty, consistent with the Explanatory Notes, requirements to register with a
Bar may include a requirement to having obtained a law degree in the host country or
equivalent, or having done some training under supervision of a licensed lawyer, or requiring
upon membership an office or a post address within the Bar's jurisdiction. To the extent these
requirements are non-discriminatory, they are not listed.
