proof of origin

It is important to note that when a customs territory or country enters into a trade agreement, there is often a reduction or elimination of duties on certain commodity codes. However, it is the origin of the goods, not the country of of departure, that determines the applicable duty. Understanding this principle is crucial for successful trade and compliance with customs regulations.

The type of proof needed depends on the type of goods and their origin.   You will normally require one from this list:-

• Invoice Declaration
• Certificate of Conformity
• Certificate of Origin
• Movement certificate - EUR1 or EUR-MED 
• GSP Form A
• Importer's knowledge.
