Certificate of Origin
Digitized certification of product origin
A Certificate of Origin is a document that shows where an item originates from. This can be used when the importer/import country’s authorities require proof of origin and no other specific forms exist for this purpose. Given that it is a “non-preferential certificate of origin”, it does not confer any customs benefits in the import country.
If the import country requires a Certificate of Origin, this must be presented to the import country’s customs authorities for inspection. When using such a certificate, without any requirement for consular registration, it is generally sufficient that the document is attested or authenticated. Some countries also require the document to be legalised by an embassy or consulate. You are recommended to contact the importer for further information about the legalisation requirements.
The documents that need certification must be sent in via essCert, our electronic system for document certification.
