Introduction
1

According to Article 9 of the Council Regulation EC No 1/2003 of 16 December 2002 on the implementation of the rules on competition laid down in Articles 81 and 82 of the Treaty 1, the Commission may decide in cases where it intends to adopt a decision requiring that an infringement is brought to an end and the parties concerned offer commitments to meet the concerns expressed to them by the Commission in its preliminary assessment to make those commitments binding on the undertakings. Such a decision may be adopted for a specified period and shall conclude that there are no longer grounds for action by the Commission. According to Article 274 of the same Regulation, the Commission shall publish a concise summary of the case and the main content of the commitments. Interested parties may submit their observations within the time limit fixed by the Commission.

Summary of the Case
2

On 28 April 2023, the Commission initiated proceedings within the meaning of Article 21 of Regulation EC
No 773/2004 of 7 April 2004 against Renfe-Operadora, E.P.E and Renfe Viajeros, S.M.E., S.A. hereinafter referred together as Renfe concerning an alleged infringement of Article 102 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union TFEU. On the same day, the Commission adopted a preliminary assessment within the meaning of Article 91 of Regulation EC No 1/2003.

The preliminary assessment sets out the Commissions concerns that Renfe may have abused its dominant position by refusing to supply all its content and real-time data to third-party ticketing platforms 2 active in Spain. Content refers to all types of tickets, discounts and functionalities e.g., possibility to process customers reimbursement claims.
Real-time data refers to information related to passenger rail transport services operated by Renfe, and it can be prejourney e.g., platform number, on-journey e.g., disruptions or post-journey e.g., information on delays that is needed to submit a compensation claim.

1 OJ L 1, 4.1.2003, p. 1. With effect from 1 December 2009, Articles 81 and 82 of the EC Treaty have become Articles 101 and, respectively, 102 of the TFEU. The two sets of provisions are in substance identical. For the purposes of this notice, references to Articles 101 and 102 of the TFEU should be understood as references to Articles 81 and 82 of the EC Treaty when applicable.
2 Third-party ticketing platforms are defined in the offered commitments as any undertaking that distributes rail tickets to individual and/or corporate customers in the European Union through software application stores e.g. Apple App Store or Google Play Store or through a website. Undertakings not offering booking and payment functionalities to customers i.e. metasearch redirecting customers to Renfes website are not considered third-party ticketing platforms and are therefore not covered by the offered commitments.
