Amendment: GSP tariff preferences (Regulation 978/2012)

This procedure updates the list of products and rules of origin under the EU's Generalised Scheme of Preferences (GSP). It ensures that trade preferences remain current, allowing eligible developing countries to export specific goods to the EU market with reduced or zero customs duties to support their economic growth.

This affects exporters in developing countries and EU importers of these goods. It changes which products qualify for lower tariffs and the specific criteria used to determine the origin of those goods.
