# Chapter VIII — Derogations **Source:** [Regulation (EU) 2023/1113 — EUR-Lex](https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=CELEX%3A32023R1113) A single article allowing the Commission to authorise Member States to enter into ToFR-derogating agreements with certain **non-Union countries and territories** that share monetary or settlement infrastructure with a Member State. The mechanism is the same as under the predecessor Regulation (EU) 2015/847 — designed for relationships like France↔Monaco, Italy↔San Marino, Italy↔Vatican City, Spain↔Andorra, where the third country forms part of a Member State's currency area or has a monetary convention with the Union. ## Articles in this chapter | Article | Title | One-liner | | ------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Art. 35 | Agreements with countries and territories which do not form part of the territory of the Union | Commission-authorised derogations for monetary-union and currency-area partners. | --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
