What Is a CoO?

A certificate of origin is a document declaring in which country a commodity or good was manufactured
The certificate of origin contains information regarding the product, its destination, and the country of export marked “Made in USA” or “Made in China”.
Required by many treaty agreements for cross-border trade, the CO is an important form because it can help determine whether certain goods are eligible for import, or whether goods are subject to duties.

Steps for obtaining a Paper Certificate of Origin:
Complete and notarize an appropriate affidavit.
— Provide either a manufacture invoice or commercial invoice that shows where your goods are manufactured.
— Fill out the certificate of origin document.
* Submit a notarized affidavit, certificate of origin document, and corresponding invoices to your chamber of commerce

* Indicate which documents you would like to be stamped

* There is usually a fee for stamping certificates of origin.
There are two types of COs that chambers can issue:

Non-Preferential COs certify that the goods are subject to no preferential treatment. These are the main type of COs that chambers can issue and are also known as “Normal COs”.
Preferential COs, which certify that goods are subject to reduced tariffs or exemptions when they are exported to countries extending these privileges. These COs tend to be closely associated with Regional Trade Agreements.
