2 In accordance with Article 13(4) of Regulation (EU) 2016/1036, the Commission, after consulting the Advisory Committee, may authorise, by decision, the exemption of imports from companies which do not circumvent the anti-dumping measures imposed by Article 1, from the duty extended by Article 2(1) and Article 3(1).

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 131(2) of Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2447 , the amount of anti-dumping duty laid down in Articles 1, 2 and 3 shall be reduced by a percentage which corresponds to the apportioning of the price actually paid or payable. Unless otherwise specified, the provisions in force concerning customs duties shall apply.

This Regulation shall enter into force on the day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
