Declaration under Article 18(2) of the Beijing Convention on judicial sale of ships,
adopted by the United Nations General Assembly on 7 December 2022 in New York, concerning
the competence of the European Union over those matters governed by that Convention
in respect of which the Member States have transferred their competence to the European
Union Article 18(1) of the Beijing Convention on Judicial Sale of Ships (‘the Convention’)
provides that a Regional Economic Integration Organisation that is constituted by
sovereign States and has competence over certain matters governed by the Convention
may sign the Convention. Article 18(2) of the Convention provides that the Regional
Economic Integration Organisation is to make a declaration specifying the matters
governed by the Convention in respect of which competence has been transferred to
that organisation by its member States. The European Union has decided to sign the
Convention and is hereby making that declaration. To the extent that they may affect
common rules or alter the scope of the legal acts referred to in points (a) and (b),
the matters governed by provisions of the Convention in respect of which the Member
States of the European Union have transferred competence and in respect of which the
European Union has exclusive competence within the meaning of Article 3(2) TFEU are
the following: (a) Article 9 of the Convention (‘Jurisdiction to avoid and suspend
judicial sale’) with regard to the rules on jurisdiction in Regulation (EU) No 1215/2012
of the European Parliament and of the Council of 12 December 2012 on jurisdiction
and the recognition and enforcement of judgments in civil and commercial matters (OJ
EU L 351, 20.12.2012, p. l); and (b) Article 4 of the Convention (‘Notice of judicial
sale’) with regard to the rules on the service of judicial and extrajudicial documents
in civil or commercial matters (service of documents) in Regulation (EU) 2020/1784
of the European Parliament and of the Council of 25 November 2020 on the service in
the Member States of judicial and extrajudicial documents in civil and commercial
matters (OJ EU L 405, 2.12.2020, p. 40). The competence of the European Union pursuant
to the Treaty on European Union (TEU) and to the Treaty on the Functioning of the
European Union (TFEU) is, by its nature, liable to continuous development. In the
framework of the Treaties, the competent institutions may take decisions which determine
the extent of the competence of the European Union. The European Union therefore reserves
the right to amend this declaration accordingly, without any such amendment constituting
a prerequisite for the exercise of its competence with regard to matters governed
by the Convention. The Union hereby specifies that the Convention is to apply, with
regard to the competence of the Union, to the territories of the Member States to
which the TEU and the TFEU apply pursuant to Article 52 TEU and under the conditions
laid down, inter alia, in Article 355 TFEU.
