Operative part of the judgment
Additional note 1 to Chapter 89 of the Combined Nomenclature in AnnexI to Council Regulation (EEC) No2658/87 of 23July 1987 on the tariff and statistical nomenclature and on the Common Customs Tariff, in the version resulting from Commission Regulation (EC) No1031/2008 of 19September 2008, must be interpreted as meaning that vessels which, because of the properties inherent in their construction, are able to sail only about 21 nautical miles off the coast in the event of bad weather do not come within the concept of ‘vessels, designed as seagoing’ in that Additional note.
