Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/2425 of 2 December 2025 on the harmonisation of the 3800-4200 MHz frequency band for the shared use by terrestrial wireless broadband systems capable of providing local-area network connectivity in the Union (notified under document C(2025) 8146)

                                January 15, 2026

(1)
The 3 800-4 200 MHz frequency band can enable the deployment of terrestrial wireless broadband systems to provide local-area network connectivity for a variety of services and applications, on the basis of technology neutrality. The wide range of local use cases across different industrial and non-industrial environments, both indoors and outdoors, will benefit from harmonised technical conditions.

(2)
The Commission Communication ‘5G for Europe: An Action Plan’ (‘5G action plan’)(2)sets out a coordinated Union approach to the deployment of 5G services as of 2020. The 5G action plan highlights 5G as a key enabler of the digitalisation of ‘vertical industries’ (‘verticals’)(3). It also states that coordinated action is needed at Union level, including to identify and harmonise spectrum for 5G, to serve innovative business models and solutions for locally licensed access to spectrum.

(3)
The Radio Spectrum Policy Group (RSPG) in its ‘Opinion on 5G implementation challenges (RSPG 3rd opinion on 5G)(4)’, concludes that connectivity for ‘verticals’ could be provided by mobile operator’s solutions, third-party providers and directly by verticals themselves in the Union-harmonised bands for electronic communications services or in dedicated spectrum for verticals. The RSPG recommends that Member States also consider other spectrum solutions including dedicated or shared spectrum for the business/sectoral needs that may not be adequately met by mobile operators.

(4)
In its ‘Opinion on additional spectrum needs and guidance on the fast rollout of future wireless broadband networks’(5), the RSPG further recognises that there is a specific demand for mid-band spectrum and recommends that Member States investigate the possible use of the 3 800-4 200 MHz frequency band for local applications (namely low/medium power), including vertical applications while protecting satellite and other existing applications and services.

(5)
The 3 800-4 200 MHz frequency band is used across the Union for satellite services comprising space-to-Earth communications to satellite Earth stations in the Fixed Satellite Service (FSS). It is also used for terrestrial communications in the Fixed Service (FS) including both military and civil uses.

(6)
The 3 400-3 800 MHz frequency band has been harmonised in the Union for terrestrial wireless broadband systems providing electronic communications services pursuant to Commission Decision 2008/411/EC(6)and represents the primary band for 5G deployment in the Union. It is crucial that those systems are adequately protected.

(7)
The 4 200-4 400 MHz frequency band is globally allocated to the Aeronautical Radio Navigation Service (ARNS) and is used by radio altimeters installed on board aircraft. Radio altimeters are used on different types of aircraft, including passenger and cargo airplanes, and helicopters. They provide precise height measurements critical for various safety functions in aviation, including automated landing, Ground Proximity Warning Systems, Terrain Awareness Warning Systems and collision avoidance, and should be protected.

(8)
Furthermore, some Very-long-baseline Interferometry (VLBI) Global Observing System (VGOS) stations are installed in some Member States as part of the European Critical Infrastructure Project Galileo, and have highly sensitive passive receivers. At present, these observatory operations do not benefit from a radio astronomy allocation in the 3 800-4 200 MHz frequency band. Nevertheless, Member States should take all practicable steps to protect them from harmful interference.

(9)
Under Article 4(2) of Decision No 676/2002/EC, the Commission issued to the European Conference of Postal and Telecommunications Administrations (CEPT) a mandate to develop harmonised technical conditions for the shared use of the 3 800-4 200 MHz frequency band for terrestrial wireless broadband systems providing local-area network connectivity in the Union.

(10)
In response to that mandate, on 8 November 2024, the CEPT issued Report 88(7)(‘CEPT Report’). It specifies the least restrictive harmonised technical conditions for the shared use of the 3 800-4 200 MHz frequency band for low- and medium-power terrestrial wireless broadband (‘WBB LMP systems’) systems for the provision of local-area network connectivity. Those conditions are based on the results of the ECC Reports 358(8)and 362(9).

(11)
The harmonised technical conditions set out in CEPT Report 88 ensure technology neutrality for the operation of WBB LMP systems, including 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) and Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications (DECT)-2020 New Radio (NR) technologies. They allow for the unsynchronised operation of medium power base stations with both active antenna systems (AAS) and non-AAS, and low power base stations with non-AAS. Where necessary to manage coexistence between different WBB LMP systems within the 3 800-4 200 MHz frequency band, Member States should ensure national and, potentially, cross-border coordination.

(12)
The band can be accessed if techniques to access spectrum and mitigate interference that provide an appropriate level of receiver performance to comply with the essential requirements of Directive 2014/53/EU of the European Parliament and the Council(10)are used. Where relevant techniques are described in harmonized standards or parts thereof the references of which have been published in theOfficial Journal of the European Unionin accordance with Directive 2014/53/EU, performance at least equivalent to the performance level associated with those techniques shall be ensured.

(13)
The harmonised technical conditions and the relevant guidance set out in CEPT Report 88 address the protection and the long-term development of incumbent users sharing the 3 800-4 200 MHz frequency band, in particular receiving satellite Earth stations and terrestrial fixed links. They also address the protection of terrestrial wireless broadband systems providing electronic communications services below 3 800 MHz and radio altimeters operating in the 4 200-4 400 MHz frequency band. The harmonised technical conditions are based on the assumption of a national authorisation regime, where the locations of WBB LMP networks or base stations, fixed links in the FS, and the receiving satellite Earth stations in the FSS are known.

(14)
Shared use between WBB LMP systems, on the one hand, and FSS or FS systems, on the other, within the 3 800-4 200 MHz band is feasible on a case-by-case basis. To ensure the protection of existing FSS systems below 3 800 MHz, and of existing and future FSS and FS systems within the 3 800-4 200 MHz band, Member States should ensure careful planning of WBB LMP systems and case-by-case analysis. Member States should also consider applying appropriate mitigation techniques, both at national level and – where necessary due to large separation distances – through bilateral or multilateral cross-border coordination agreements. The use of the band 3 800-4 200 MHz for FSS and FS systems currently authorised on the market in Member States remains subject to national decisions. This Decision is without prejudice to the way Member States authorise the use of this band for FSS and FS systems.

(15)
Member States should ensure the protection of radio altimeters operating in the 4 200-4 400 MHz frequency band from WBB LMP systems operating in the 3 800-4 200 MHz frequency band, based on the results set out in ECC Report 362 and without prejudice to any aviation measure that could be taken by the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA). Particular attention at national level should be given to the protection of radio altimeters, from medium power AAS base stations located in close proximity to airports, including in border areas, and operating within the 4 100-4 200 MHz frequency sub-band.

(16)
Member States should ensure the protection of terrestrial systems providing WBB electronic communications services (ECS) in the 3 400-3 800 MHz frequency band, including, as appropriate, through cross-border coordination, synchronised operation of networks, power flux density limits, separation distances and/or frequency separation requirements.

(17)
Because CEPT Report 88 did not examine the use of WBB LMP systems in the 3 800 -4 200 MHz frequency band for connectivity to aerial terminal stations, this Decision does not provide for harmonised technical and operational conditions for the use of aerial terminal stations. In accordance with the existing legal framework, Member States are entitled to restrict the use of aerial terminal stations in this frequency band, subject to any harmonised conditions to become available at Union level in the future.

(18)
It is essential to ensure coexistence between WBB LMP systems as well as between WBB LMP systems and other established services such as radio altimeters. In this regard, Member States may also refer to any ECC recommendations, for action at national or bilateral/multilateral levels(11).

(19)
The notion of ‘designating and making available’ the 3 800-4 200 MHz frequency band in the context of this Decision refers to the following steps: (i) the adaptation of the national legal framework on frequency allocation to include the intended use of this band under the harmonised technical conditions set in this Decision; (ii) the initiation of all necessary measures in order to ensure coexistence with existing use in this band, to the extent necessary; and (iii) the initiation of the appropriate measures, supported by the launch of a stakeholder consultation process where appropriate, in order to allow the use of this band in accordance with the applicable legal framework at Union level, including the harmonised technical conditions of this Decision.

(20)
Cross-border coordination agreements among Member States as well as between Member States and non-EU countries may be necessary, in order to avoid harmful interference and to improve spectrum efficiency and convergence in spectrum use. Without prejudice to potential aviation measures by EASA, Member States should take into account relevant ECC recommendations to ensure the coherent protection of radio altimeters operating in the 4 200-4 400 MHz frequency band across borders. The Commission, in cooperation with the Member States and EASA, has prepared a non-binding EU roadmap for ensuring safe coexistence between mobile networks and aircraft radio altimeters within the frequency range 3 400-4 400 MHz(12).

(21)
Without prejudice to the right of Member States to authorise the use of spectrum in their territory, the future review of the spectrum use under this Decision would be facilitated through the convergent use of consistent portions of spectrum across the EU, such as starting from the upper part of the band. Any coordinated way of use of the spectrum across the EU could be further investigated. Depending on the authorisation regime applied to the 3 800-4 200 MHz frequency band, Member States should assess the need to impose additional technical conditions, in order to ensure appropriate co-existence between WBB LMP systems and between WBB LMP systems and other services in that frequency band and in adjacent bands.

(22)
Member States should report to the Commission on the implementation of this Decision, in particular the gradual introduction and development of WBB LMP systems in the 3 800-4 200 MHz frequency band and any co-existence issues, to help assess its impact at Union level and the suitability of the harmonised technical conditions in ensuring adequate protection of incumbent services, as well as its timely review.

(23)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Decision No 676/2002/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 7 March 2002 on a regulatory framework for radio spectrum policy in the European Community (Radio Spectrum Decision) (1), and in particular Article 4(3) thereof,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
This Decision establishes the harmonised technical conditions for the availability and efficient shared use of the 3 800-4 200 MHz frequency band, for low- and medium-power terrestrial wireless broadband (WBB LMP) systems capable of providing local-area network connectivity in the Union.
For the purposes of this Decision:

                     ‘radio altimeter’ means a downward-looking radar ranging system that measures the height of an aircraft above terrain and obstacles with a high degree of accuracy, integrity, and availability, during all phases of flight.
By 30 September 2026, Member States shall designate and make available on a non-exclusive basis the 3 800-4 200 MHz frequency band for WBB LMP systems in compliance with the harmonised technical conditions set out in the Annex.
Member States shall ensure, in compliance with the relevant harmonised technical conditions set out in the Annex, that the WBB LMP systems appropriately protect:
(a) Earth stations in the Fixed Satellite Service (FSS) for space-to-Earth communications authorised to operate within the 3 800-4 200 MHz frequency band across the Union and below 3 800 MHz;

This Decision is addressed to the Member States.
1.   DefinitionsFor the purposes of this Annex, the following definitions apply:

AAS (active antenna systems) means a WBB LMP base station and an antenna system where the amplitude and/or phase between antenna elements is continually adjusted resulting in an antenna pattern that varies in response to short term changes in the radio environment. This is intended to exclude long term beam shaping such as fixed electrical down tilt (1).

Synchronised operation means operation of two or more different time division duplex (TDD) networks, where simultaneous uplink (UL) and downlink (DL) transmissions do not occur, that is at any given moment in time either all networks transmit in downlink or all networks transmit in uplink. This requires the alignment of all DL and UL transmissions for all TDD networks involved as well as synchronising the beginning of the frame across all networks (2).

Unsynchronised operation means operation of two or more different TDD networks, where at any given moment in time at least one network transmits in DL while at least one network transmits in UL. This might happen if the TDD networks either do not align all DL and UL transmissions or do not synchronise at the beginning of the frame (3).

Semi-synchronised operation means operation of two or more different TDD networks, where part of the frame is consistent with synchronised operation, while the remaining portion of the frame is consistent with unsynchronised operation. This requires the adoption of a frame structure for all TDD networks involved, including slots where the UL/DL direction is not specified, as well as synchronising the beginning of the frame across all networks.

Equivalent isotropically radiated power (EIRP) is the product of the power supplied to the antenna and the antenna gain in a given direction relative to an isotropic antenna (absolute or isotropic gain)

Total radiated power (TRP) is a measure of how much power a composite antenna radiates. It equals the total conducted power input into the antenna array system less any losses in the antenna array system. TRP means the integral of the power transmitted in different directions over the entire radiation sphere as shown in the formula:

where P(θ,φ) is the power radiated by an antenna array system in direction (θ,φ) given by the formula:

where PTx denotes the conducted power (measured in Watts), which is input into the array system, and g(θ,φ) denotes the array systems directional gain along the (θ, φ) direction.

2.   General Parameters
Within the 3 800-4 200 MHz frequency band:
(1) the duplex mode of operation shall be time division duplex (TDD);

(2) the assigned block sizes (or ‘channels’) shall be in multiples of 5 MHz (Figure 1);

(3) the lower frequency limit of an assigned block shall be aligned with or spaced at multiples of 5 MHz from the lower band edge of 3 800 MHz;

(4) multiple adjacent blocks of 5 MHz can be combined to obtain a wider channel;

(5) the transmission of base stations and terminal stations shall be in compliance with the technical conditions specified in Section 3 and Section 4, respectively.

3.   Technical conditions for base stations
Table 1 defines the maximum EIRP within an assigned block (‘in-block EIRP’) per cell for WBB LMP base stations operating in the 3 800-4 200 MHz frequency band.
Table 1

Type of base station

EIRP per cell (Note 1 and Note 2)

Low power base station

≤ 24 dBm/channel for BW ≤ 20 MHz

≤ 18 dBm/5MHz for BW > 20 MHz

Medium power base station

≤ 44 dBm/channel for BW ≤ 20 MHz

≤ 38 dBm/5MHz for BW > 20 MHz

Note 1:

In a multi-sector site, the value per ‘cell’ corresponds to the value for one of the sectors.

Note 2:

Higher EIRP levels may be authorised by national administrations in exceptional and duly justified cases, provided that protection of FSS receiving Earth stations and FS links (where appropriate at national level) in the band as well as terrestrial systems providing WBB ECS below 3 800  MHz and radio altimeters operating in the 4 200 – 4 400  MHz frequency band is ensured, taking into account their future development, including in the neighbouring EU Member States. The network coverage shall remain local (i.e. no nationwide networks).
Explanatory note to Table 1: for the protection of terrestrial systems providing WBB ECS operating below 3 800 MHz, coordination may be required at national and/or cross-border level (4).

Table 2 defines the maximum unwanted emission levels for WBB LMP base stations above 4 200 MHz. These levels will provide a general protection of radio altimeters (5) operating in the 4 200-4 400 MHz frequency band. For WBB medium power base stations with AAS operating in the 4 100-4 200 MHz frequency band, that are deployed in close proximity to those airports which support precision approach procedures, coordination at national level may be needed (6).

Note 1:

In a multi-sector base station site, the value per ‘cell’ corresponds to the value for one of the sectors.
Explanatory note to Table 2: The spurious domain in those technical conditions for a base station operating in the 3 800-4 200 MHz frequency band starts at 40 MHz from the band edge and the corresponding spurious emission limits are set in ERC Recommendation 74-01 (7).

4.   Terminal Stations in-block requirements
Maximum WBB LMP terminal station power: 28 dBm TRP (including a 2 dB tolerance).

For fixed terminal stations, an in-block EIRP limit may be set out at national level, provided that protection of in-band and adjacent band incumbent services and cross-border obligations are fulfilled.

Transmission power control is mandatory and shall be activated.

(1)  Non-AAS (non-active antenna systems) refers to WBB LMP base station transmitters which uses a passive antenna with a fixed antenna pattern. It may be possible to apply long term electrical beam steering to non-AAS, but non-AAS cannot respond to short term changes in the radio environment.
(2)  I.e. common phase clock reference.
(3)  I.e. no common phase clock reference.
(4)  Examples of coordination may include geographical/frequency separation, defining a maximum allowed power level (pfd) at the border of the WBB LMP licensed area, synchronised operation, specific sub-cases of semi-synchronised operation which only allow downlink to uplink modifications to the WBB LMP network compared to the frame structure of the WBB ECS and/or defining the maximum unwanted emissions below 3 800 MHz depending on location of WBB LMP in relation to WBB ECS.
(5)  This includes radio altimeters installed in large commercial aeroplanes and regional aircraft, which constitute the vast majority of radio altimeters in operation.
(6)  Examples of coordination may include no AAS medium power base station deployment closer than 1 200 m from the runway threshold and 40 m laterally from the edge of the runway, or AAS medium power base stations in compliance with emission levels meeting the spurious emission limit between 4 200 and 4 240 MHz.

Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/2424 of 25 November 2025 amending Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/1582 concerning certain emergency measures relating to infection with lumpy skin disease virus in Italy (notified under document C(2025) 8160)

                                January 15, 2026

(1)
Infection with lumpy skin disease virus is an infectious, vector-borne disease affecting bovine animals. Its occurrence can have a severe impact on the concerned animal population and on the profitability of farming, also causing disturbance to movements of those animals and products thereof within the Union and exports to third countries. In the event of an outbreak of an infection with lumpy skin disease virus in bovine animals, there is a serious risk of the spread of that disease to other establishments keeping bovine animals, particularly due its main mode of transmission through vectors.

(2)
Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/687(2)supplements the rules for the control of the listed diseases referred to in Article 9(1), points (a), (b) and (c), of Regulation (EU) 2016/429, and defined as category A, B and C diseases in Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/1882(3). In particular, Articles 21 and 22 of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/687 provide for the establishment of a restricted zone in the event of an outbreak of a category A disease, including infection with lumpy skin disease virus, and for certain measures to be applied therein. In addition, Article 21(1) of that Delegated Regulation provides that the restricted zone is to comprise at least a protection zone, a surveillance zone, and, if necessary, further restricted zones around or adjacent to the protection and surveillance zones.

(3)
Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/1582(4)lays down certain emergency measures related to outbreaks of infection with lumpy skin disease virus in Italy. Article 1 of Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/1582 provides for the establishment, in Italy, of restricted zones, comprising protection, surveillance, and further restricted zones, in accordance with Article 21 of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/687, as well as the establishment of vaccination zones, in accordance with Part 1 of Annex IX to Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2023/361(5). In addition, Article 1 of Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/1582 provides that those protection, surveillance, and further restricted zones, as well as the vaccination zones, are to comprise at least the areas listed in Annexes I and III thereto, and the measures required to be applied in those zones are to be applied at least until the dates set out in those Annexes.

(4)
Furthermore, Article 2 of Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/1582 provides that Italy is to ensure that movements of bovine animals from the protection, surveillance or further restricted zones set out in Annex I to that Implementing Decision to a destination located outside the external perimeter of the further restricted zone in Italy or outside that Member State are prohibited until the dates listed in that Annex.

(5)
In addition, Article 3 of Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/1582 provides that Italy is to apply, in the areas listed in Annex II to that Implementing Decision, and for the periods specified in that Annex, the measures applicable to further restricted zones, in accordance with Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/687. It also prohibits movements of bovine animals from the areas listed in Annex II to that Implementing Decision to a destination located outside those areas in Italy or outside that Member State for the periods specified in that Annex.

(6)
Since the last amendment of Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/1582 by Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/2087(6), Italy has notified the Commission of eight new outbreaks of infection with lumpy skin disease virus in establishments keeping bovine animals in the provinces of Nuoro and Oristano, in the region of Sardinia, which were reported between 15 October 2025 and 5 November 2025. In response to those outbreaks, Italy has established protection and surveillance zones, in the provinces of Nuoro and Oristano, in the region of Sardinia, where the disease control measures laid down in Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/687 are applied.

(7)
On 17 November 2025, Italy reported additional data to allow an assessment of the epidemiological situation in its territory. That information demonstrates a significant improvement in the overall situation, supported by a favourable risk assessment concerning the spread of infection with lumpy skin disease virus, the effective implementation of the measures laid down in Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/687, and the achievement of the minimum vaccination coverage required in accordance with Annex IX to Delegated Regulation (EU) 2023/361.

(8)
Italy has also informed the Commission of delays in the implementation of eradication measures for several outbreaks in the region of Sardinia, resulting in certain outbreaks remaining unresolved. Consequently, the duration of the protection and surveillance zones established around those outbreaks must be prolonged, and this Decision accordingly extends their period of application.

(9)
In view of the evolving epidemiological situation in the region of Sardinia, it is necessary to reassess the restricted zones listed in Annex I to Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/1582. In particular, the further restricted zone should be lifted, while the protection and surveillance zones around those outbreaks for which eradication measures have been delayed should be spatially adjusted and their duration prolonged. In addition, protection and surveillance zones should be established around the eight additional confirmed outbreaks. Therefore, the references to the further restricted zone in Articles 1 and 2 of Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/1582 should be removed, and Part B of Annex I to that Implementing Decision, which lists further restricted zone, should be deleted.

(10)
In view of the lifting of the further restricted zone provided for in Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/1582, the additional measures laid down in Article 3 of that Implementing Decision, which applied specifically to the area listed in Anne II to that Decision, are no longer necessary. Consequently, Article 3 and the current Annex II to Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/1582 should be deleted. As a result of that deletion, the current Annex III, listing the vaccination zones, should be renumbered as Annex II.

(11)
The size of the areas indicated as protection and surveillance zones in Annex I to Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/1582, as amended by this Decision, as well as the duration of the measures to be applied therein, are based on the criteria laid down in Article 64(1) of Regulation (EU) 2016/429, as well as on the rules laid down in Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/687. The criteria applied for the choice of the size of the protection and surveillance zones, as well as of the duration of the measures to be applied therein, include the consideration of not only the epidemiological situation as regards infection with lumpy skin disease virus in the areas affected by that disease, but also of other epidemiological factors, including geographical parameters and the risk for the further spread of the disease in view of the presence of insect vectors. The chosen duration of the measures provided for in this Decision has also taken into account the international standards of the Terrestrial Animal Health Code of the World Organisation for Animal Health(7).

(12)
Articles 2 and 3 of Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/1582 prohibit the movement of bovine animals from protection, surveillance or further restricted zones to destinations outside the external perimeter of the further restricted zone in Italy or outside that Member State, until the dates listed in Annexes I and II thereto. In view of the unresolved outbreaks in the region of Sardinia, that prohibition should continue to apply in the protection and surveillance zones established in Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/1582, as amended by this Decision.

(13)
The vaccination zones established in Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/1582 remain necessary, and vaccination should continue in accordance with Italy’s official vaccination plan dated 1 July 2025, which was submitted pursuant to Article 6(4), point (a), of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2023/361. As the current Annex II is deleted, the Annex listing the vaccination zones should remain in effect and be renumbered as Annex II to ensure continuation of vaccination activities in the designated zones.

(14)
The Annexes to Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/1582 should, therefore, be amended accordingly.

(15)
In light of the epidemiological situation in Italy, the amendments to be made to Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/1582 by this Decision should apply as soon as possible to prevent the further spread of the disease within Italy, to other Member States or to third countries, and to avoid any unnecessary disturbance to trade within the Union or unjustified barriers to trade with third countries.

(16)
The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Plants, Animals, Food and Feed,

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EU) 2016/429 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 9 March 2016 on transmissible animal diseases and amending and repealing certain acts in the area of animal health (‘Animal Health Law’) (1), and in particular Article 259(1) thereof,

Whereas:

(1) Infection with lumpy skin disease virus is an infectious, vector-borne disease affecting bovine animals. Its occurrence can have a severe impact on the concerned animal population and on the profitability of farming, also causing disturbance to movements of those animals and products thereof within the Union and exports to third countries. In the event of an outbreak of an infection with lumpy skin disease virus in bovine animals, there is a serious risk of the spread of that disease to other establishments keeping bovine animals, particularly due its main mode of transmission through vectors.

(2) Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/687 (2) supplements the rules for the control of the listed diseases referred to in Article 9(1), points (a), (b) and (c), of Regulation (EU) 2016/429, and defined as category A, B and C diseases in Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/1882 (3). In particular, Articles 21 and 22 of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/687 provide for the establishment of a restricted zone in the event of an outbreak of a category A disease, including infection with lumpy skin disease virus, and for certain measures to be applied therein. In addition, Article 21(1) of that Delegated Regulation provides that the restricted zone is to comprise at least a protection zone, a surveillance zone, and, if necessary, further restricted zones around or adjacent to the protection and surveillance zones.

(3) Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/1582 (4) lays down certain emergency measures related to outbreaks of infection with lumpy skin disease virus in Italy. Article 1 of Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/1582 provides for the establishment, in Italy, of restricted zones, comprising protection, surveillance, and further restricted zones, in accordance with Article 21 of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/687, as well as the establishment of vaccination zones, in accordance with Part 1 of Annex IX to Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2023/361 (5). In addition, Article 1 of Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/1582 provides that those protection, surveillance, and further restricted zones, as well as the vaccination zones, are to comprise at least the areas listed in Annexes I and III thereto, and the measures required to be applied in those zones are to be applied at least until the dates set out in those Annexes.

(4) Furthermore, Article 2 of Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/1582 provides that Italy is to ensure that movements of bovine animals from the protection, surveillance or further restricted zones set out in Annex I to that Implementing Decision to a destination located outside the external perimeter of the further restricted zone in Italy or outside that Member State are prohibited until the dates listed in that Annex.

(5) In addition, Article 3 of Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/1582 provides that Italy is to apply, in the areas listed in Annex II to that Implementing Decision, and for the periods specified in that Annex, the measures applicable to further restricted zones, in accordance with Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/687. It also prohibits movements of bovine animals from the areas listed in Annex II to that Implementing Decision to a destination located outside those areas in Italy or outside that Member State for the periods specified in that Annex.

(6) Since the last amendment of Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/1582 by Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/2087 (6), Italy has notified the Commission of eight new outbreaks of infection with lumpy skin disease virus in establishments keeping bovine animals in the provinces of Nuoro and Oristano, in the region of Sardinia, which were reported between 15 October 2025 and 5 November 2025. In response to those outbreaks, Italy has established protection and surveillance zones, in the provinces of Nuoro and Oristano, in the region of Sardinia, where the disease control measures laid down in Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/687 are applied.

(7) On 17 November 2025, Italy reported additional data to allow an assessment of the epidemiological situation in its territory. That information demonstrates a significant improvement in the overall situation, supported by a favourable risk assessment concerning the spread of infection with lumpy skin disease virus, the effective implementation of the measures laid down in Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/687, and the achievement of the minimum vaccination coverage required in accordance with Annex IX to Delegated Regulation (EU) 2023/361.

(8) Italy has also informed the Commission of delays in the implementation of eradication measures for several outbreaks in the region of Sardinia, resulting in certain outbreaks remaining unresolved. Consequently, the duration of the protection and surveillance zones established around those outbreaks must be prolonged, and this Decision accordingly extends their period of application.

(9) In view of the evolving epidemiological situation in the region of Sardinia, it is necessary to reassess the restricted zones listed in Annex I to Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/1582. In particular, the further restricted zone should be lifted, while the protection and surveillance zones around those outbreaks for which eradication measures have been delayed should be spatially adjusted and their duration prolonged. In addition, protection and surveillance zones should be established around the eight additional confirmed outbreaks. Therefore, the references to the further restricted zone in Articles 1 and 2 of Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/1582 should be removed, and Part B of Annex I to that Implementing Decision, which lists further restricted zone, should be deleted.

(10) In view of the lifting of the further restricted zone provided for in Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/1582, the additional measures laid down in Article 3 of that Implementing Decision, which applied specifically to the area listed in Anne II to that Decision, are no longer necessary. Consequently, Article 3 and the current Annex II to Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/1582 should be deleted. As a result of that deletion, the current Annex III, listing the vaccination zones, should be renumbered as Annex II.

(11) The size of the areas indicated as protection and surveillance zones in Annex I to Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/1582, as amended by this Decision, as well as the duration of the measures to be applied therein, are based on the criteria laid down in Article 64(1) of Regulation (EU) 2016/429, as well as on the rules laid down in Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/687. The criteria applied for the choice of the size of the protection and surveillance zones, as well as of the duration of the measures to be applied therein, include the consideration of not only the epidemiological situation as regards infection with lumpy skin disease virus in the areas affected by that disease, but also of other epidemiological factors, including geographical parameters and the risk for the further spread of the disease in view of the presence of insect vectors. The chosen duration of the measures provided for in this Decision has also taken into account the international standards of the Terrestrial Animal Health Code of the World Organisation for Animal Health (7).

(12) Articles 2 and 3 of Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/1582 prohibit the movement of bovine animals from protection, surveillance or further restricted zones to destinations outside the external perimeter of the further restricted zone in Italy or outside that Member State, until the dates listed in Annexes I and II thereto. In view of the unresolved outbreaks in the region of Sardinia, that prohibition should continue to apply in the protection and surveillance zones established in Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/1582, as amended by this Decision.

(13) The vaccination zones established in Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/1582 remain necessary, and vaccination should continue in accordance with Italy’s official vaccination plan dated 1 July 2025, which was submitted pursuant to Article 6(4), point (a), of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2023/361. As the current Annex II is deleted, the Annex listing the vaccination zones should remain in effect and be renumbered as Annex II to ensure continuation of vaccination activities in the designated zones.

(14) The Annexes to Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/1582 should, therefore, be amended accordingly.

(15) In light of the epidemiological situation in Italy, the amendments to be made to Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/1582 by this Decision should apply as soon as possible to prevent the further spread of the disease within Italy, to other Member States or to third countries, and to avoid any unnecessary disturbance to trade within the Union or unjustified barriers to trade with third countries.

(16) The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Plants, Animals, Food and Feed,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/1582 is amended as follows:

 1. Articles 1 and 2 are replaced by the following:

‘Article 1

Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/2423 of 25 November 2025 amending the Annexes to Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/2248 concerning certain emergency measures relating to infection with lumpy skin disease virus in Spain (notified under document C(2025) 8187)

                                January 15, 2026

(1)
Infection with lumpy skin disease virus is an infectious, vector-borne disease affecting bovine animals. Its occurrence can have a severe impact on the concerned animal population and on the profitability of farming, also causing disturbance to movements of consignments of those animals and products thereof within the Union and exports to third countries. In the event of an outbreak of infection with lumpy skin disease virus in bovine animals, there is a serious risk of the spread of that disease to other establishments keeping bovine animals, particularly due to its mode of transmission through vectors.

(2)
Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/687(2)supplements the rules for the control of the listed diseases referred to in Article 9(1), points (a), (b) and (c), of Regulation (EU) 2016/429, and defined as category A, B and C diseases in Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/1882(3). In particular, Articles 21 and 22 of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/687 provide for the establishment of a restricted zone in the event of an outbreak of a category A disease, including infection with lumpy skin disease virus, and for certain measures to be applied therein. In addition, Article 21(1) of that Delegated Regulation provides that the restricted zone is to comprise at least a protection zone, a surveillance zone, and, if necessary, further restricted zones around or adjacent to the protection and surveillance zones.

The size of the protection and surveillance zones, and the duration of the measures to be applied therein, are based on the criteria laid down in Article 64(1) of Regulation (EU) 2016/429, as well as on the rules laid down in Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/687. The criteria applied for the choice of the size of the protection and surveillance zones, as well as of the duration of the measures to be applied therein, include a consideration of not only the epidemiological situation as regards infection with lumpy skin disease virus in the areas affected by that disease, but also of other epidemiological factors, including geographical parameters and the risk for the further spread of the disease. The chosen duration of the measures provided for in this Decision has also taken into account the international standards of the Terrestrial Animal Health Code of the World Organisation for Animal Health(4).

(4)
Regulation (EU) 2016/429, and in particular Article 69 thereof, provides that the competent authority of a Member State may use emergency vaccination for the effective control of a listed disease, as referred to in Article 9(1), point (a), of that Regulation, in kept animals. To that end, the competent authority may establish vaccination zones and develop a vaccination plan that meets specific requirements. Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2023/361(5), which supplements the rules laid down in Regulation (EU) 2016/429, lays down, inter alia, the specific rules to be implemented by Member States when using emergency protective vaccination in bovine animals to prevent or control certain listed diseases. That Delegated Regulation also lays down the conditions under which the movements of vaccinated animals and products thereof may be allowed. Specific conditions for emergency protective vaccination against infection with lumpy skin disease virus are laid down in Annex IX to that Delegated Regulation.

(5)
Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/2248(6)lays down certain emergency measures relating to infection with lumpy skin disease virus in Spain. More particularly, Article 1, point (a), of that Implementing Decision requires the establishment of a restricted zone, comprising protection and surveillance zones, in accordance with Article 21 of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/687, in that Member State, which must comprise at least the areas listed in Annex I to that Implementing Decision. In addition, Article 1, point (b), of that Implementing Decision provides for the establishment in Spain of vaccination zones I and II, in accordance with Part I of Annex IX to Delegated Regulation (EU) 2023/361, and under the conditions laid down therein. It also provides that those vaccination zones must comprise at least the areas listed as such in Annex II to Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/2248. Furthermore, Article 1, point (c), of Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/2248 provides that the measures required to be applied in the protection and surveillance zones, as well as in vaccination zones I and II, are to apply at least until the dates listed in the Annexes to that Implementing Decision.

(6)
Since the adoption of Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/2248, France has notified seven new outbreaks of infection with lumpy skin disease virus in establishments keeping bovine animals in areas in that Member State, bordering the Catalonia community, in Spain, in the period from 30 October 2025 to 17 November 2025. In response to those new outbreaks in France, Spain has updated the protection and surveillance zones in the Catalonia community in that Member State, where the disease control measures laid down in Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/687 are applied. Taking into account these recent outbreaks in France, the areas listed as protection and surveillance zones, and the duration of the measures to be applied therein, in Annex I to Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/2248 should be updated and amended by this Decision.

(7)
Spain has notified the Commission that the results of the outbreak in Catalonia community, notified on 12 November 2025, as ES-LSD-2025-0009 were considered as false positive due to contamination during the processing following a thorough clinical, epidemiological and laboratory investigation. Therefore, that outbreak should be removed from Annex I to Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/2248.

(8)
Given the updated protection and surveillance zones in the Catalonia community in Spain, it is necessary to adjust the vaccination zones I and II for infection with lumpy skin disease virus currently, in that Member State, set out in Annex II to Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/2248.

(9)
The type, size and duration of the vaccination zones I and II listed in Annex II to Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/2248 need to be amended in the light of the evolving epidemiological situation as regards infection with lumpy skin disease virus, and the progress of the vaccination campaign, particularly taking into account the evolving level of vaccine coverage achieved. Accordingly, it is necessary to indicate, in Annex II to that Implementing Decision, the dates for the duration of the vaccination zones I and II.

(10)
Article 2 to Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/2248 prohibits the movements of bovine animals from the protection and surveillance zones set out in Annex I to that Implementing Decision to destinations outside the external perimeter of those zones in Spain or outside that Member State until the dates listed in that Annex. In view of the evolvement of the epidemiological situation with regard to infection with lumpy skin disease virus in Spain, it is necessary to maintain that prohibition.

(11)
The Annexes to Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/2248 should, therefore, be amended accordingly.

(12)
In light of the current epidemiological situation in Spain, the amendments to be made to Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/2248 by this Decision should apply as soon as possible in order to prevent the further spread of the disease within Spain, to other Member States, or to third countries, and also to avoid any unnecessary disturbance to trade within the Union or any unjustified barriers to trade with third countries.

(13)
The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Plants, Animals, Food and Feed,

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EU) 2016/429 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 9 March 2016 on transmissible animal diseases and amending and repealing certain acts in the area of animal health (‘Animal Health Law’) (1), and in particular Article 259(1) thereof,

Whereas:

(1) Infection with lumpy skin disease virus is an infectious, vector-borne disease affecting bovine animals. Its occurrence can have a severe impact on the concerned animal population and on the profitability of farming, also causing disturbance to movements of consignments of those animals and products thereof within the Union and exports to third countries. In the event of an outbreak of infection with lumpy skin disease virus in bovine animals, there is a serious risk of the spread of that disease to other establishments keeping bovine animals, particularly due to its mode of transmission through vectors.

(2) Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/687 (2) supplements the rules for the control of the listed diseases referred to in Article 9(1), points (a), (b) and (c), of Regulation (EU) 2016/429, and defined as category A, B and C diseases in Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/1882 (3). In particular, Articles 21 and 22 of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/687 provide for the establishment of a restricted zone in the event of an outbreak of a category A disease, including infection with lumpy skin disease virus, and for certain measures to be applied therein. In addition, Article 21(1) of that Delegated Regulation provides that the restricted zone is to comprise at least a protection zone, a surveillance zone, and, if necessary, further restricted zones around or adjacent to the protection and surveillance zones.

(3) The size of the protection and surveillance zones, and the duration of the measures to be applied therein, are based on the criteria laid down in Article 64(1) of Regulation (EU) 2016/429, as well as on the rules laid down in Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/687. The criteria applied for the choice of the size of the protection and surveillance zones, as well as of the duration of the measures to be applied therein, include a consideration of not only the epidemiological situation as regards infection with lumpy skin disease virus in the areas affected by that disease, but also of other epidemiological factors, including geographical parameters and the risk for the further spread of the disease. The chosen duration of the measures provided for in this Decision has also taken into account the international standards of the Terrestrial Animal Health Code of the World Organisation for Animal Health (4).

(4) Regulation (EU) 2016/429, and in particular Article 69 thereof, provides that the competent authority of a Member State may use emergency vaccination for the effective control of a listed disease, as referred to in Article 9(1), point (a), of that Regulation, in kept animals. To that end, the competent authority may establish vaccination zones and develop a vaccination plan that meets specific requirements. Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2023/361 (5), which supplements the rules laid down in Regulation (EU) 2016/429, lays down, inter alia, the specific rules to be implemented by Member States when using emergency protective vaccination in bovine animals to prevent or control certain listed diseases. That Delegated Regulation also lays down the conditions under which the movements of vaccinated animals and products thereof may be allowed. Specific conditions for emergency protective vaccination against infection with lumpy skin disease virus are laid down in Annex IX to that Delegated Regulation.

(5) Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/2248 (6) lays down certain emergency measures relating to infection with lumpy skin disease virus in Spain. More particularly, Article 1, point (a), of that Implementing Decision requires the establishment of a restricted zone, comprising protection and surveillance zones, in accordance with Article 21 of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/687, in that Member State, which must comprise at least the areas listed in Annex I to that Implementing Decision. In addition, Article 1, point (b), of that Implementing Decision provides for the establishment in Spain of vaccination zones I and II, in accordance with Part I of Annex IX to Delegated Regulation (EU) 2023/361, and under the conditions laid down therein. It also provides that those vaccination zones must comprise at least the areas listed as such in Annex II to Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/2248. Furthermore, Article 1, point (c), of Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/2248 provides that the measures required to be applied in the protection and surveillance zones, as well as in vaccination zones I and II, are to apply at least until the dates listed in the Annexes to that Implementing Decision.

(6) Since the adoption of Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/2248, France has notified seven new outbreaks of infection with lumpy skin disease virus in establishments keeping bovine animals in areas in that Member State, bordering the Catalonia community, in Spain, in the period from 30 October 2025 to 17 November 2025. In response to those new outbreaks in France, Spain has updated the protection and surveillance zones in the Catalonia community in that Member State, where the disease control measures laid down in Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/687 are applied. Taking into account these recent outbreaks in France, the areas listed as protection and surveillance zones, and the duration of the measures to be applied therein, in Annex I to Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/2248 should be updated and amended by this Decision.

(7) Spain has notified the Commission that the results of the outbreak in Catalonia community, notified on 12 November 2025, as ES-LSD-2025-0009 were considered as false positive due to contamination during the processing following a thorough clinical, epidemiological and laboratory investigation. Therefore, that outbreak should be removed from Annex I to Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/2248.

(8) Given the updated protection and surveillance zones in the Catalonia community in Spain, it is necessary to adjust the vaccination zones I and II for infection with lumpy skin disease virus currently, in that Member State, set out in Annex II to Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/2248.

(9) The type, size and duration of the vaccination zones I and II listed in Annex II to Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/2248 need to be amended in the light of the evolving epidemiological situation as regards infection with lumpy skin disease virus, and the progress of the vaccination campaign, particularly taking into account the evolving level of vaccine coverage achieved. Accordingly, it is necessary to indicate, in Annex II to that Implementing Decision, the dates for the duration of the vaccination zones I and II.

(10) Article 2 to Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/2248 prohibits the movements of bovine animals from the protection and surveillance zones set out in Annex I to that Implementing Decision to destinations outside the external perimeter of those zones in Spain or outside that Member State until the dates listed in that Annex. In view of the evolvement of the epidemiological situation with regard to infection with lumpy skin disease virus in Spain, it is necessary to maintain that prohibition.

(11) The Annexes to Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/2248 should, therefore, be amended accordingly.

(12) In light of the current epidemiological situation in Spain, the amendments to be made to Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/2248 by this Decision should apply as soon as possible in order to prevent the further spread of the disease within Spain, to other Member States, or to third countries, and also to avoid any unnecessary disturbance to trade within the Union or any unjustified barriers to trade with third countries.

(13) The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Plants, Animals, Food and Feed,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
The Annexes to Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/2248 are replaced by the text set out in the Annex to this Decision.
This Decision is addressed to the Kingdom of Spain.

Having regard to the opinions of the European Parliament (1),

Whereas:

Decision (EU) 2025/2420 of the European Central Bank of 18 November 2025 amending Decision (EU) 2024/3127 on the approval of the volume of coin issuance in 2025 (ECB/2024/38) (ECB/2025/38)

                                January 15, 2026

2025/2420
28.11.2025

(1)
The European Central Bank (ECB) has the exclusive right since 1 January 1999 to approve the volume of coins issued by the Member States whose currency is the euro.

(2)
Based on the estimates of demand for euro coins in 2025 that the Member States whose currency is the euro submitted to the ECB, the ECB approved the total volume of euro coins intended for circulation and euro collector coins not intended for circulation in 2025 in Decision (EU) 2024/3127 of the European Central Bank (ECB/2024/38)(2).

(3)
Pursuant to Article 3 of Decision (EU) 2015/2332 (ECB/2015/43), Member States whose currency is the euro must notify the ECB if the actual demand for euro coins is likely to exceed the approved volume of coin issuance in a calendar year and, where the increased coin demand continues, must request ad hoc approval for an additional volume of coin issuance in that calendar year.

(4)
On 14 October 2025, the ECB received a request from Národna banka Slovenska on behalf of Slovakia to increase the volume of circulation coins that Slovakia may issue in 2025 by an additional volume of EUR 2,0 million, from EUR 20,0 million to EUR 22,0 million. There are two reasons for this request. First, there has been a continual increase in the net issuance of circulation coins since the beginning of 2025, especially in the higher denominations. Second, an additional increase is expected that might lead to the approved volume of coin issuance for 2025 being exceeded before the end of the year.

(5)
Pursuant to Article 3(7) of Decision (EU) 2015/2332 (ECB/2015/43), the Executive Board must adopt an individual decision on the ad hoc approval request, when no modification to the ad hoc request is required.

(6)
Therefore, Decision (EU) 2024/3127 (ECB/2024/38) should be amended accordingly,

(1)
the row regarding Slovakia is replaced by the following:‘Slovakia22,003,0025,00’

Council Decision (EU) 2025/2418 of 27 October 2025 on the position to be taken on behalf of the European Union within the Specialised Committee on Road Transport established by the Trade and Cooperation Agreement between the European Union and the European Atomic Energy Community, of the one part, and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, of the other part, on the amount and modalities of the United Kingdom’s financial contribution to certain road transport information systems managed by the Union and the amendment to Decision No 1/2022 of the Specialised Committee on Road Transport

                                January 15, 2026

(1)
The Trade and Cooperation Agreement between the European Union and the European Atomic Energy Community, of the one part, and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, of the other part (the ‘Trade and Cooperation Agreement’), was concluded by the Union by Council Decision (EU) 2021/689(1)and entered into force on 1 May 2021.

(2)
Annex 31 to the Trade and Cooperation Agreement provides several instances where the Specialised Committee on Road Transport, established under Article 8(1), point (o), of that Agreement (the ‘Specialised Committee on Road Transport’), is to decide on the modalities of exchange of information between the competent authorities of each Party in relation to the transport of goods by road under the Trade and Cooperation Agreement.

(3)
Section 2, Part A of Annex 31 to the Trade and Cooperation Agreement provides for a system of exchange of information on the posting of drivers in road transport, through the Union’s Internal Market Information System (IMI). IMI is managed by the Commission, and the technical modalities of that exchange of information are laid down in Decision No 1/2022 of the Specialised Committee on Road Transport(2). The contribution of the United Kingdom to the development costs of the road transport posting declaration module of IMI was paid in 2022, in accordance with Article 5(2) of Decision No 1/2022 of the Specialised Committee on Road Transport.

(4)
Article 14, Section 1, Part A of Annex 31 to the Trade and Cooperation Agreement provides that each Party is to exchange information, inter alia, on serious infringements committed by operators in the other Party. The European Registers of Road Transport Undertakings (ERRU), managed by the Commission, is used for that exchange of information and the modalities thereof are subject to a separate Union position laid down in Council Decision (EU) 2025/2417(3). The United Kingdom contributed to the development costs of ERRU as a Member State of the Union.

(5)
Article 714 of the Trade and Cooperation Agreement provides that the participation of the United Kingdom in Union programmes, activities or parts thereof is to be subject to an annual financial contribution.

(6)
While the technical modalities of the exchange of information are specific to each information system and are therefore laid down in distinct decisions of the Specialised Committee on Road Transport, it is appropriate, given the limited amounts concerned and the administrative procedures required to process payments, to establish a single annual financial contribution of the United Kingdom for its participation in certain road transport information systems managed by the Commission under the framework of the Trade and Cooperation Agreement.

(7)
Decision No 1/2022 of the Specialised Committee on Road Transport provides for the specific contribution of the United Kingdom to the IMI, it is therefore necessary to amend it.

(8)
To ensure the proper functioning of Title I of Heading Three of Part Two of the Trade and Cooperation Agreement, the Specialised Committee on Road Transport should therefore establish the annual contribution to be paid by the United Kingdom to certain road transport information systems managed by the Union.

(9)
It is appropriate to establish the position to be taken on the Union’s behalf in the Specialised Committee on Road Transport, as the envisaged act will be binding on the Union.

(10)
The position of the Union within the Specialised Committee on Road Transport should therefore be based on the draft Decision of that Committee attached to this Decision,

(1)
Annex 31 to the Trade and Cooperation Agreement provides several instances where the Specialised Committee on Road Transport is to decide on the modalities of exchange of information between the competent authorities of each Party in relation to the transport of goods by road under the Trade and Cooperation Agreement.

Section 2 of Part A of Annex 31 to the Trade and Cooperation Agreement provides for a system of exchange of information on the posting of drivers in road transport, through the Union’s Internal Market Information System (IMI). That system is managed by the European Commission, and the technical modalities of this exchange of information are laid down in Decision No 1/2022 of the Specialised Committee on Road Transport(2). The contribution of the United Kingdom to the development costs of the road transport posting declaration module of IMI was paid in 2022, in accordance with Article 5(2) of Decision No 1/2022 of the Specialised Committee on Road Transport.

(3)
Article 14 of Section 1 of Part A of Annex 31 to the Trade and Cooperation Agreement provides that Parties are to exchange information, inter alia, on serious infringements committed by operators in the other Party. The modalities of the exchange of information are laid down in Decision No …/2025 of the Specialised Committee on Road Transport(3). The European Registers of Road Transport Undertakings (ERRU), managed by the European Commission, is used for that purpose. The United Kingdom contributed to the development costs of ERRU as a Member State of the Union.

(4)
Article 714 of the Trade and Cooperation Agreement provides that the participation of the United Kingdom in Union programmes, activities or parts thereof is also to be subject to an annual financial contribution.

(5)
While the technical modalities of exchange of information are specific to each information system and are therefore laid down in distinct decisions of the Specialised Committee on Road Transport, it is appropriate, given the limited amounts concerned and the administrative procedures required to process payments, to establish a single annual financial contribution of the United Kingdom for its participation in road transport information systems managed by the European Commission under the framework of the Trade and Cooperation Agreement.

(6)
Decision No 1/2022 of the Specialised Committee on Road Transport provides for the specific contribution of the United Kingdom to the IMI, it is therefore necessary to amend it.

(7)
To ensure the proper functioning of Title I of Heading Three of the Trade and Cooperation Agreement, the Specialised Committee on Road Transport should therefore establish the annual contribution to be paid by the United Kingdom to road transport information systems managed by the Union,

—
the Internal Market Information System Road Transport Posting Declaration module (IMI); and

—
the European Registers of Road Transport Undertakings (ERRU).

—
an operational and maintenance contribution; and

—
a participation fee for access to ERRU. The participation fee shall be 4 % of the annual operational contribution and shall not be subject to retrospective adjustments.

                                January 15, 2026

(1)
The Trade and Cooperation Agreement between the European Union and the European Atomic Energy Community, of the one part, and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, of the other part (the ‘Trade and Cooperation Agreement’), was concluded by the Union by Council Decision (EU) 2021/689(1)and entered into force on 1 May 2021.

(2)
Article 6, Section 1, Part A of Annex 31 to the Trade and Cooperation Agreement lays down detailed conditions relating to the requirement of good repute for a road haulage operator. In particular, paragraphs 2 and 3 of that Article lay down the conditions in which infringements listed in point (b) of paragraph 1 of that Article incurred by an operator may lead to an administrative procedure by the competent authorities in the Party of establishment, and may lead to the loss of good repute. Appendix 31-A-1-1 to Annex 31 further lays down a list of the seven most serious infringements. Where an operator has incurred a penalty for one of these infringements, the competent authority in the Party of establishment is to carry out and complete an administrative procedure.

(3)
Pursuant to Article 6(3), Section 1, Part A of Annex 31 to the Trade and Cooperation Agreement, the Specialised Committee on Road Transport, established by Article 8(1), point (o), of that Agreement (the ‘Specialised Committee on Road Transport’), is empowered to adopt a decision regarding a list of categories, types and degrees of seriousness of serious infringements which, in addition to those set out in Appendix 31-A-1-1, may lead to the loss of good repute.

(4)
A common list of infringements of the Trade and Cooperation Agreement or of Union or national law relating to the matters listed in point (b) of Article 6(1), Section 1, Part A of Annex 31 to the Trade and Cooperation Agreement can enhance the implementation of the Trade and Cooperation Agreement in the road haulage sector. Therefore, pursuant to Article 6(3), Section 1, Part A of Annex 31 to the Trade and Cooperation Agreement, the Specialised Committee on Road Transport should adopt a decision regarding such a list.

(5)
It is appropriate to establish the position to be taken on the Union’s behalf within the Specialised Committee on Road Transport, as the envisaged act will be binding on the Union.

(6)
National legal frameworks may need to be adapted to cater for the introduction of the additional serious infringements contained in the draft decision of the Specialised Committee on Road Transport attached to this Decision. Furthermore, in order to allow both Parties to agree and set up the modalities of the exchange of information relating to serious infringements committed in the Party other than the Party of establishment in accordance with Article 14(5), Section 1, Part A of Annex 31 to the Trade and Cooperation Agreement, it is appropriate to establish a date of application of the envisaged act. Hence, the Decision of the Specialised Committee on Road Transport should apply from 1 December 2025.

(7)
The position of the Union within the Specialised Committee on Road Transport should therefore be based on the draft Decision of that Committee attached to this Decision,

(1)
Article 463(1) of the Trade and Cooperation Agreement provides that road haulage operators undertaking journeys referred to in Article 462 of the Trade and Cooperation Agreement must hold a valid licence in accordance with Article 463(2) of the Trade and Cooperation Agreement. Point (b) of Article 3 of Section 1 of Part A of Annex 31 to the Trade and Cooperation Agreement lays down that a road haulage operator must be of good repute, in accordance with Article 6 of Section 1 of Part A of Annex 31 to the Trade and Cooperation Agreement.

(2)
Article 6 of Section 1 of Part A of Annex 31 to the Trade and Cooperation Agreement lays down detailed conditions relating to the requirement of good repute for a road haulage operator. In particular, its paragraphs 2 and 3 lay down the conditions in which infringements listed in point (b) of paragraph 1 incurred by an operator may lead to an administrative procedure by the competent authorities in the Party of establishment, and may lead to the loss of good repute. Appendix 31-A-1-1 to Annex 31 further lays down a list of the seven most serious infringements which must trigger an administrative procedure by the competent authority in the Party of establishment.

(3)
A common list of infringements of the Trade and Cooperation Agreement or of Union or national law relating to the matters listed in point (b) of Article 6(1) of Section 1 of Part A of Annex 31 to the Trade and Cooperation Agreement can enhance the implementation of the Trade and Cooperation Agreement in the road haulage sector. A list of categories, types and degrees of seriousness of serious infringements which may, in addition to those set out in Appendix 31-A-1-1 to Annex 31 to the Trade and Cooperation Agreement, lead to the loss of good repute, should therefore be adopted by Decision of the Specialised Committee on Road Transport, pursuant to Article 6(3) of Section 1 of Part A of Annex 31 to the Trade and Cooperation Agreement.

(4)
National legal frameworks may need to be adapted to cater for the introduction of the additional serious infringements contained in this Decision. Furthermore, in order to allow both Parties to agree and set up the modalities of exchange of information relating to serious infringements committed in the Party other than the Party of establishment in accordance with Article 14(5) of Section 1 of Part A of Annex 31 to the Trade and Cooperation Agreement, it is appropriate to establish a date of application of this Decision. Hence, this Decision should apply from 1 December 2025,

(1)
The degrees of seriousness of infringements shall be serious (‘SI’), very serious (‘VSI’) and most serious (‘MSI’).

(2)
Serious and very serious infringements, when committed repeatedly by the same operator, shall be regarded as more serious by the competent authority in the Party of establishment. When calculating the frequency of occurrence of repeated infringements, the competent authorities in the Party shall take into account the following factors:—The seriousness of the infringements (SI or VSI);—Time (at least one rolling year from the date of a control);—Number of vehicles used for the transport activities managed by the transport manager (average per year).
—
The seriousness of the infringements (SI or VSI);
—
Time (at least one rolling year from the date of a control);
—
Number of vehicles used for the transport activities managed by the transport manager (average per year).

—
The seriousness of the infringements (SI or VSI);

—
Time (at least one rolling year from the date of a control);

—
Number of vehicles used for the transport activities managed by the transport manager (average per year).

—
The seriousness of the infringements (SI or VSI);

—
Time (at least one rolling year from the date of a control);

—
Number of vehicles used for the transport activities managed by the transport manager (average per year).

(3)
Taking into account the potential of creating a risk to road safety, the maximum frequency of serious infringements beyond which they should be considered as more serious shall be established as follows:—3 SI per vehicle and per year = 1 VSI;—3 VSI per vehicle and per year = launch of a national procedure on good repute.
—
3 SI per vehicle and per year = 1 VSI;
—
3 VSI per vehicle and per year = launch of a national procedure on good repute.

—
3 SI per vehicle and per year = 1 VSI;

—
3 VSI per vehicle and per year = launch of a national procedure on good repute.

—
3 SI per vehicle and per year = 1 VSI;

—
3 VSI per vehicle and per year = launch of a national procedure on good repute.

(4)
The number of infringements per vehicle per year is an average figure calculated by dividing the total number of all infringements of the same level of seriousness (SI or VSI) by the average number of vehicles used during the year. The frequency formula provides for a maximum threshold for occurrence of serious infringements beyond which they shall be considered more serious. Competent authorities in the Parties may establish stricter thresholds if envisaged in their national administrative procedure for assessing good repute.

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 91, in conjunction with Article 218(9) thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,

Whereas:

(1) The Trade and Cooperation Agreement between the European Union and the European Atomic Energy Community, of the one part, and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, of the other part (the ‘Trade and Cooperation Agreement’), was concluded by the Union by Council Decision (EU) 2021/689 (1) and entered into force on 1 May 2021.

(2) Article 6, Section 1, Part A of Annex 31 to the Trade and Cooperation Agreement lays down detailed conditions relating to the requirement of good repute for a road haulage operator. In particular, paragraphs 2 and 3 of that Article lay down the conditions in which infringements listed in point (b) of paragraph 1 of that Article incurred by an operator may lead to an administrative procedure by the competent authorities in the Party of establishment, and may lead to the loss of good repute. Appendix 31-A-1-1 to Annex 31 further lays down a list of the seven most serious infringements. Where an operator has incurred a penalty for one of these infringements, the competent authority in the Party of establishment is to carry out and complete an administrative procedure.

(3) Pursuant to Article 6(3), Section 1, Part A of Annex 31 to the Trade and Cooperation Agreement, the Specialised Committee on Road Transport, established by Article 8(1), point (o), of that Agreement (the ‘Specialised Committee on Road Transport’), is empowered to adopt a decision regarding a list of categories, types and degrees of seriousness of serious infringements which, in addition to those set out in Appendix 31-A-1-1, may lead to the loss of good repute.

(4) A common list of infringements of the Trade and Cooperation Agreement or of Union or national law relating to the matters listed in point (b) of Article 6(1), Section 1, Part A of Annex 31 to the Trade and Cooperation Agreement can enhance the implementation of the Trade and Cooperation Agreement in the road haulage sector. Therefore, pursuant to Article 6(3), Section 1, Part A of Annex 31 to the Trade and Cooperation Agreement, the Specialised Committee on Road Transport should adopt a decision regarding such a list.

(5) It is appropriate to establish the position to be taken on the Union’s behalf within the Specialised Committee on Road Transport, as the envisaged act will be binding on the Union.

(6) National legal frameworks may need to be adapted to cater for the introduction of the additional serious infringements contained in the draft decision of the Specialised Committee on Road Transport attached to this Decision. Furthermore, in order to allow both Parties to agree and set up the modalities of the exchange of information relating to serious infringements committed in the Party other than the Party of establishment in accordance with Article 14(5), Section 1, Part A of Annex 31 to the Trade and Cooperation Agreement, it is appropriate to establish a date of application of the envisaged act. Hence, the Decision of the Specialised Committee on Road Transport should apply from 1 December 2025.

(7) The position of the Union within the Specialised Committee on Road Transport should therefore be based on the draft Decision of that Committee attached to this Decision,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
The position to be taken on the Union’s behalf within the Specialised Committee on Road Transport, established by Article 8(1), point (o), of the Trade and Cooperation Agreement between the European Union and the European Atomic Energy Community, of the one part, and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, of the other part (the ‘Specialised Committee on Road Transport’), on a list of categories, types, and degrees of seriousness of serious infringements which may lead to the loss of good repute for a road haulage operator, is set out in the draft decision of the Specialised Committee on Road Transport attached to this Decision.
This Decision shall enter into force on the date of its adoption.
Categories, types and degrees of seriousness of infringementsThis Decision establishes the list of categories, types and degrees of seriousness of serious infringements of the Trade and Cooperation Agreement rules in the transport of goods by road which, as laid down in the Annexes to this Decision, in addition to those set out in Appendix 31-A-1-1 to Annex 31 to the Trade and Cooperation Agreement, may lead to the loss of good repute of a road haulage operator.
Entry into force and applicationThis Decision shall enter into force on the day following its adoption.

It shall apply from 1 December 2025.
(1)   Groups of infringements against Section 2 of Part B of Annex 31 to the Trade and Cooperation Agreement, unless stated otherwiseThe following tables contain categories and types of serious infringements against Annex 31 to the Trade and Cooperation Agreement, divided into three categories of seriousness according to their potential to create a risk of fatalities or serious injuries and/or distorting competition in the road transport market: most serious infringement (MSI), very serious infringement (VSI) and serious infringement (SI).

Degrees of seriousness of serious infringements(1) The degrees of seriousness of infringements shall be serious (‘SI’), very serious (‘VSI’) and most serious (‘MSI’).

(2) Serious and very serious infringements, when committed repeatedly by the same operator, shall be regarded as more serious by the competent authority in the Party of establishment. When calculating the frequency of occurrence of repeated infringements, the competent authorities in the Party shall take into account the following factors:

—

The seriousness of the infringements (SI or VSI);

—

Time (at least one rolling year from the date of a control);

—

Number of vehicles used for the transport activities managed by the transport manager (average per year).

(3) Taking into account the potential of creating a risk to road safety, the maximum frequency of serious infringements beyond which they should be considered as more serious shall be established as follows:

—

3 SI per vehicle and per year = 1 VSI;

—

3 VSI per vehicle and per year = launch of a national procedure on good repute.

(4) The number of infringements per vehicle per year is an average figure calculated by dividing the total number of all infringements of the same level of seriousness (SI or VSI) by the average number of vehicles used during the year. The frequency formula provides for a maximum threshold for occurrence of serious infringements beyond which they shall be considered more serious. Competent authorities in the Parties may establish stricter thresholds if envisaged in their national administrative procedure for assessing good repute.

Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/2415 of 25 November 2025 concerning certain emergency measures relating to sheep pox and goat pox in Romania and repealing Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/1767 (notified under document C(2025) 8176)

                                January 15, 2026

(1)
Sheep pox and goat pox is an infectious viral disease affecting caprine and ovine animals and can have a severe impact on the concerned animal population and the profitability of farming causing disturbance to movements of consignments of those animals and products thereof within the Union and exports to third countries. In the event of an outbreak of sheep pox and goat pox in caprine or ovine animals, there is a serious risk of the spread of that disease to other establishments of caprine or ovine animals.

(2)
Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/687(2)supplements the rules for the control of the listed diseases referred to in Article 9(1), points (a), (b) and (c), of Regulation (EU) 2016/429, and defined as category A, B and C diseases in Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/1882(3). In particular, Articles 21 and 22 of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/687 provide for the establishment of a restricted zone in the event of an outbreak of a category A disease, including sheep pox and goat pox, and for certain measures to be applied therein. In addition, Article 21(1) of that Delegated Regulation provides that the restricted zone is to comprise a protection zone, a surveillance zone, and, if necessary, further restricted zone around or adjacent to the protection and surveillance zones.

(3)
Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/1767(4)was adopted within the framework of Regulation (EU) 2016/429, and it lays down certain emergency measures relating to infection with sheep pox and goat pox in Romania. More particularly, Article 1 of Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/1767 provides that the restricted zone, comprising protection and surveillance zones, to be established by the competent authority of that Member State, in accordance with Article 21 of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/687, is to comprise at least the areas listed in the Annex to that Implementing Decision, and the measures required to be applied in the protection and surveillance zones, are to be applied at least until the dates listed in that Annex.

(4)
Following further outbreaks of sheep pox and goat pox in Teleorman and Olt counties in Romania, the Annex to Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/1767 was amended by Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/1954(5).

(5)
As of 24 October 2025, all the measures laid down in Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/1767 had been lifted by the competent authority of Romania, since the last outbreak of sheep pox and goat pox in that Member State prior to that date was notified to the Commission on 5 September 2025. The last of the measures set out in the Annex to Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/1767 ceased to apply as of 24 October 2025, and there were no new outbreaks up to that date.

(6)
On 17 November 2025, Romania notified the Commission of two new outbreaks of sheep pox and goat pox in establishments where ovine and caprine animals were kept, located in the counties of Dolj and Teleorman. In response to these new outbreaks, Romania has established a restricted zone, which comprises protection zone surveillance zones, where the general disease control measures laid down in Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/687 are applied in order to prevent the further spread of that disease.

(7)
In order to prevent any unnecessary disturbance to trade within the Union and to avoid unjustified barriers to trade being imposed by third countries, it is necessary to rapidly identify, at Union level, the location and duration of this restricted zone for sheep pox and goat pox. The list of areas where a restricted zone must be established in Romania, in respect of sheep pox and goat pox, as well as the envisaged duration of these zones, should, therefore, be set out in the Annex to this Decision.

(8)
The size of the protection and surveillance zones, and duration of the measures to be applied therein, are based on the criteria set out in Article 64(1) of Regulation (EU) 2016/429, including the epidemiological situation as regards sheep pox and goat pox in the areas affected by that disease and the overall epidemiological situation of sheep pox and goat pox in the Member State concerned by that disease as well as the level of risk for the further spread of the disease, and are in accordance with the rules laid down in Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/687. The duration of the measures also takes into account the international standards of the Terrestrial Animal Health Code of the World Organisation for Animal Health (WOAH)(6).

(9)
In the interests of clarity of Union legislation, it is appropriate to repeal Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/1767, as the emergency measures laid down in that Decision will be replaced by those laid down in this Decision.

(10)
The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Plants, Animals, Food and Feed.

(a)
a restricted zone, which comprises protection and surveillance zones, is established immediately in accordance with Article 21 of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/687, and under the conditions laid down in that Article;

(b)
the protection and surveillance zones referred to in point (a) comprise at least the areas listed in the Annex to this Decision;

(c)
the measures required to be applied in the protection and surveillance zones are applied at least until the dates listed in the Annex to this Decision.
