Other elements to be taken into account by the authorities are the commercial status of the person holding the goods, where the products are held, whether the goods are in a car, van or lorry, and documents such as receipts related to the products) In order to avoid confusion, the proposed Directive would therefore eliminate the "indicative" limits (800 cigarettes, 10 litres of spirituous beverages, 90 litres of wine, etc.) as an element of proof to distinguish between products intended for commercial purposes and products intended for private use.
Par conséquent, et également afin d'éviter des confusions, la proposition de directive propose d'éliminer les limites "indicatives" (800 cigarettes, 10 litres de boissons spiritueuses, 90 litres de vin, etc.) comme élément de preuve pour distinguer les produits destinés à des fins commerciales des produits destinés à des besoins privés.
