Council Regulation (EU) No 36/2012 concerning restrictive measures in view of the situation in Syria gave effect to Council Decision 2011/782/CFSP, which was repealed and replaced by Council Decision 2012/739/CFSP. On 1 June 2013 Decision 2012/739/CFSP expired. On 31 May 2013 the Council adopted Decision 2013/255/CFSP concerning restrictive measures against Syria.

Annex IX to Regulation (EU) No 36/2012 lists items which are subject to prior authorisation prior to sale, supply, transfer or export. This list should be expanded to include further items. An exception for products identified as consumer goods should be provided.

Further action by the Union is needed in order to implement Decision 2013/255/CFSP. The High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy and the Europan Commission propose to amend Regulation (EU) No 36/2012 accordingly.
