Confirmation of the country of origin of goods: rules, documents and application features

 

Introduction

 

Confirming the country of origin of goods is an important aspect of international trade that affects customs tariffs, trade preferences, quotas and other regulatory measures. Correct determination of the country of origin helps to avoid customs violations and ensure fairness in trade relations. In this article, we will review the basic rules for confirming the country of origin of goods, the necessary documents and the specifics of their application.

 

Basic rules for confirming the country of origin

 

The rule of origin "by stages of production":

  • This rule is based on determining the country where the last significant stage of production or processing of the goods was carried out. If the goods have undergone several stages of production in different countries, the country of origin is the country where the last significant stage was carried out.

 

The rule of origin "at the cost of the components":

  • This rule determines the country of origin of a product based on the value of its component parts. If a certain share of the value of a product is created in one country, that country can be considered the country of origin.

 

The rule of origin "upon change of tariff classification":

  • According to this rule, the goods acquire the origin of the country where their tariff classification has changed as a result of production processes. This rule is often applied to complex production processes where the goods change their nature.

 

Required documents

 

Certificate of origin:

  • This is the main document confirming the country of origin of the goods. The certificate is issued by the authorized bodies of the country of origin and contains information about the manufacturer, the goods, their origin, and other necessary details.

 

Declaration of origin:

  • This is a declaration made by the exporter or manufacturer confirming the country of origin of the goods. It can be part of a contract, invoice, or a separate document.
  •  

Other documents:

  • Additional documents may include production reports, invoices for components, transportation documents, and other evidence confirming the origin of the goods.
  •  

Features of application

 

Trade agreements and preferences:

  • Many countries enter into trade agreements that grant preferences to goods of a certain origin. In order to receive such preferences, it is necessary to correctly confirm the country of origin of the goods in accordance with the requirements of the agreement.

 

Anti-dumping and countervailing measures:

  • In the event of anti-dumping or countervailing measures, the correct determination of the country of origin is important to avoid additional customs duties.

Conclusions.

 

Confirmation of the country of origin of goods is a key element of international trade, affecting customs tariffs, trade preferences and regulatory measures. Correct identification and documentation of the country of origin helps to avoid customs violations and ensure fairness in trade relations. It is important to comply with the established rules and requirements to ensure the correctness of customs procedures and facilitate the development of international trade.
