58Moreover, it should be noted that, when adopting a tariff classification regulation, the Commission cannot be bound by a judgment of a court of a Member State, including a supreme court. It is settled case-law that such a regulation is adopted by the Commission, following the opinion of the CCC, 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 (judgments of 26 April 2017, Stryker EMEA Supply Chain Services, C‑51/16, EU:C:2017:298, paragraph 59, and of 15 May 2019, Korado, C‑306/18, EU:C:2019:414, paragraph 54), since such a situation of legal uncertainty may in particular exist in the event of case-law or administrative divergences between the Member States concerning the tariff classification of the same product.
