What is a Certificate of Origin, and where do I get one if it’s needed?
The Certificate of Origin verifies your commodity's country of manufacture. The document is notarized and certified by a Chamber of Commerce. Because the country of manufacture is a key element in customs entry (for quotas, etc.), many countries require a Certificate of Origin for some shipments exceeding a certain value. Even though the commercial invoice usually includes a statement of origin, some countries require that a separate certificate be completed. Customs offices will use this document to determine whether or not a preferential duty rate applies on the products being imported.
