Recommendations - EU-level differentiation measures: Launch a comprehensive technical review of EU-Israel relations across relevant

Discuss further in EU council working groups how best to implement UNSCR 2334 provisions and exchange best practices, including the possibility of the EU and member states voluntarily transmitting a report to the UN secretary general on their implementation of differentiation measures. [...] This should oblige Israeli exporters to correctly designate the origin of settlement products prior to their entry to the EU market and remove the administrative burden of monitoring and enforcement currently placed on member state customs authorities. [...] Tighten the European Commission 2013 funding guidelines to exclude Israeli public authorities (ministries and government agencies) located in the OPT, such as Israel’s Ministry of Science and Technology and Antiquities Authority, from grants, prizes, and financial instruments funded by the EU. [...] Review the validity within member state jurisdictions of certificates, including higher education certificates and property deeds, issued by Israeli entities established in the OPT or on the basis of Israel’s application of its legislation to the OPT. [...] Open a discussion among like-minded member states on a unified and consistent approach to the provision of consular services (especially visa applications) to residents of settlements by member state consulates in Tel Aviv and Jerusalem/Ramallah in line with Article 6 of the EU Visa Code and following the EU visa/passport policy on Crimea and Donetsk and Luhansk regions.
