Mollmann-Fleisch v Hauptzollamt Hamburg-Jonas: ECJ 31 Mar 1993

ECJ In view of the objectives of the system of variable export refunds for which some agricultural products may qualify, it is essential that products subsidized by such refunds actually reach the market of destination and be marketed there. It is for that reason that Article 6(2) and Article 4 of Regulation No 885/68 laying down general rules for granting export refunds on beef and veal and criteria for fixing the amount of such refunds, in conjunction with Article 20(1) of Regulation No 2730/79 laying down common detailed rules for the application of the system of export refunds on agricultural products, must be interpreted as meaning that importation into a non-member country may be considered as not having been proved where there is reason to doubt that the goods indicated on the customs entry certificate referred to in Article 20(3) of Regulation No 2730/79 actually gained access to the market of the country of destination.
