On 3 August, the European Commission issued a Notice to operators concerning the import ban on Russian crude oil and petroleum products imposed by article 3m of Council Regulation 833/2014. The Notice says that: - The ban covers Russian oil mixed with oil of other origin, unless the exact share of the non-Russian-origin oil can be clearly demonstrated to the Member State authorities. In this case, the exact portion of oil not originating in Russia can be allowed into the EU and remaining part of the shipment will be refused entry; - Where Russian crude oil content is identified but it is not possible to determine the exact share of non-Russian oil, the whole shipment will be prevented from entering the EU; - Economic operators involved in imports of crude oil and / or petroleum products are advised to take all necessary due diligence measures to ensure that no Russian sanctioned crude oil is imported, even if blended with a majority content of a third country-origin oil. Proof may be shown through the origin of a ship or chemical analysis. Importers are advised to write in the purchase contract a clause according to which the exporter confirms that the oil does not contain any Russian oil and that the exporter would be contractually responsible for any misdeclaration. - Imports of oil will be subject to controls, including documentary checks and as appropriate and if available chemical analysis; - The customs authorities of the EU’s Member States have been advised to take all necessary measures and to exercise particular diligence in order to mitigate the risk of circumvention of the Russian import sanctions on crude oil through the blending with oil originating in third countries; - Although importers are those primarily responsible for complying with the oil related sanctions, all actors involved in oil imports into the EU – including carriers, insurers and financial institutions opening credit lines or issuing letters of credit – are advised to exercise due diligence.
