Concept information
Preferred term
country of origin requirements
Definition
- At the global level there are no uniform or enforceable guidelines governing country of origin requirements. Apart from treaty obligations, which may be bilateral or multilateral, and excluding any obligations arising as a member of a customs union, for example, the European Community (EC), individual countries have considerable freedom in the following: the way in which a product acquires origin (for example, whether it is wholly, or partly processed); limits on the extent to which value is added in non-preference countries; and documentary requirements to establish origin.
