Recital 8
Recital 8
(8) In order not to impede trade with goods across the external border disproportionately, this Regulation should only apply to goods meeting a certain age limit and in part to cultural goods meeting a certain value limit according to the Annex. For that purpose, it seems appropriate to set a 250 year minimum age threshold for all categories of cultural goods. That minimum age threshold and the value limit will ensure that the measures provided for in this Regulation focus on cultural goods most likely to be targeted by looters in conflict areas, without excluding other goods the control of which is necessary for ensuring protection of cultural heritage.
