Judgment_paragraph 59 · Stryker EMEA Supply Chain Services BV v Inspecteur van de Belastingdienst/Douane kantoor Rotterdam Rijnmond (C-51/16)

59It is apparent from the case-law, first, that a classification regulation is adopted by the Commission when the classification in the CN of a particular product is such as to give rise to difficulty or to be a matter for dispute and, secondly, that such a regulation is of general application in so far as it does not apply to an individual trader but, in general, to products identical to the one thus classified (see judgment of 19 February 2009, Kamino International Logistics, C‑376/07, EU:C:2009:105, paragraph 63).
