About this product
Vermouth and other flavoured wines enter the EU duty-free from Mercosur as soon as the agreement applies. Mercosur phases out its duties on European vermouth over a long schedule. Its base duty is high, so the cut matters for European producers.
How the duty falls, year by year
Highest and lowest ad valorem duty each year over the lines on a path to zero. Excluded and quota-only lines keep their duty and aren't included.
Into the EU from Mercosur
Nothing to phase out in this direction: every line is already duty-free, excluded or only covered by a quota.

Rates in each Mercosur country
Each member has its own base rate and applied MFN rate. The preference is cut from the base rate, or from the applied rate where that's lower (Art. 2.4(7) of the agreement), so the current rate can differ by country.
