Remarks

The assignment of customs duties as own resources to the financing of common expenditure is the logical consequence of the free movement of goods within the Union. This article may comprise levies, premiums, additional or compensatory amounts, additional amounts or factors, Common Customs Tariff duties and other duties established or to be established by the institutions of the European Union in respect of trade with third countries and customs duties on products under the expired Treaty establishing the European Coal and Steel Community.

Figures are net of collection costs.

Legal basis

Council Decision (EU, Euratom) 2020/2053 of 14 December 2020 on the system of own resources of the European Union and repealing Decision 2014/335/EU, Euratom (OJ L 424, 15.12.2020, p. 1), and in particular point (a) of Article 2(1) thereof.

Remarks

The GNI-based resource is an‘additional’ resource, providing the revenue required to cover expenditure in excess of the amount yielded by traditional own resources, VAT-based payments, plastic based own resource and other revenue in any particular year. By implication, the GNI-based resource ensures that the budget is always balanced ex ante.

The GNI call rate is determined by the additional revenue needed to finance the budgeted expenditure not covered by the other resources (plastic based own resource, VAT-based resource, traditional own resources and other revenue). Thus, a call rate is applied to the GNI of each of the Member States.

The rate to be applied to the Member States’ GNI for financial year 2021 is 0,8237 %.

This item is intended to record the net contributions from the United Kingdom resulting from the payments made in accordance with Article 148 of the Agreement on the withdrawal of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland from the European Union and the European Atomic Energy Community.

The reference dates for payments by the United Kingdom to the Union or by the Union to the United Kingdom made after 31 December 2020 shall be 30 June and 31 October of every year. Payments shall be made in four equal monthly instalments for payments that have a reference date of 30 June and in eight equal monthly instalments for payments that have a reference date of 31 October.

Remarks

New item

This item is intended to record the annual contributions from the European Coal and Steel Community (ECSC) in liquidation to the Union’s annual budget for the years 2021 to 2025 that are resulting from the application of the Article 145 of the Agreement on the withdrawal of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland from the European Union and the European Atomic Energy Community.

According to this Article, the Union is liable to the United Kingdom for its share in the net assets of the ECSC in liquidation on 31 December 2020 (EUR 183 282 282) and the related reimbursement shall be made in five equal annual instalments (EUR 36 656 456) from 2021 to 2025.

These contributions from the ECSC in liquidation therefore aim at fully compensating the effects of the corresponding reductions accounted for in the contributions to the Union’s annual budget of the United Kingdom, as recorded under the item 6 6 0 2.

Reference acts

Agreement on the withdrawal of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland from the European Union and the European Atomic Energy Community (OJ L 29, 31.1.2020, p. 7).


(1)  The figures in this column correspond to those in the 2021 budget (OJ L 93, 17.3.2021, p. 1) plus AB No 1/2021 to AB No 4/2021.

(2)  The figures in this column correspond to those in the 2020 budget (OJ L 57, 27.2.2020, p. 1) plus AB No 1/2020 to AB No 9/2020.

(3)  The own resources for the 2021 budget are determined on the basis of the budget forecasts adopted at the 181st meeting of the Advisory Committee on Own Resources on 26 May 2021.

(4)  This amount includes EUR 34 591 000 in relation to liabilities of the Union resulting from the borrowing referred to in Article 5 of Council Decision (EU, Euratom) 2020/2053.

(5)  The third subparagraph of Article 310(1) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union reads:‘The revenue and expenditure shown in the budget shall be in balance’.

(6)  The base to be used does not exceed 50 % of GNI.

(7)  Calculation of rate: (115 877 408 110) / (140 685 210 000) = 0,823664464160803.

(8)  p.m. (own resources + other revenue = total revenue = total expenditure); (156 993 359 980 + 11 017 622 874 = 168 010 982 854).

(9)  Total own resources as percentage of GNI: (156 993 359 980) / (14 068 521 000 000) = 1,12 %; own resources ceiling as percentage of GNI: 1,40 %.
