Article 1 

1. A provisional anti-dumping duty is hereby imposed on imports of coke of coal in pieces larger than 80 mm in maximum diameter (Coke 80+) originating in the People’s Republic of China and falling within CN code ex 2704 00 19 (TARIC code 2704 00 19 10). The diameter of the pieces shall be determined in accordance with the norm ISO 728:1995.
2. The amount of the provisional anti-dumping duty applicable for products described in paragraph 1 shall be the difference between the minimum import price of EUR 227 per tonne and the net, free-at-Community-frontier price, before duty, in all cases where the latter is less than the minimum import price.
3. The anti-dumping duty shall also apply to coke of coal in pieces with a diameter of more than 80 mm when shipped in mixtures containing both coke of coal in pieces with a diameter of more than 80 mm and coke of coal in pieces with smaller diameters unless it is determined that the quantity of coke of coal in pieces with a diameter of more than 80 mm does not constitute more than 20 % of dry net weight of the mixed shipment. The quantity of coke of coal in pieces with a diameter of more than 80 mm contained in mixtures may be determined on the basis of samples in accordance with Articles 68 to 70 of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2913/92. In cases where the quantity of coke of coal in pieces with a diameter of more than 80 mm is determined on the basis of samples, the samples shall be selected in accordance with the norm ISO 18238:2006.
4. In cases where goods have been damaged before entry into free circulation and, therefore, the price actually paid or payable is apportioned for the determination of the customs value pursuant to Article 145 of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2454/93, the minimum import price set out above shall be reduced by a percentage which corresponds to the apportioning of the price actually paid or payable. The duty payable will then be equal to the difference between the reduced minimum import price and the reduced net, free-at-Community-frontier price, before customs clearance.
5. The release for free circulation in the Community of the product referred to in paragraph 1 shall be subject to the provision of a security equivalent to the amount of the provisional duty.
6. Unless otherwise specified, the provisions in force concerning customs duties shall apply.
