Implications of the latest Harley-Davidson ruling
02-02-2025

It is no secret that non-preferential origin can actually be more difficult to determine than preferential origin. The importance of non-preferential origin, in the age of new trade wars and border-applied sustainability policies is increasing. For that reason, the recent judgement by the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) in the Harley-Davidson Europe and Neovia Logistics Services International v. Commission case is particularly interesting.
