Did you know George Business Chamber offers a Certificate of Origin (COO) service to Exporters:
What is a Certificate of Origin?
A Certificate of Origin (COO) is a document that certifies the origin of goods being exported. This document is crucial as it helps determine the duty applicable on the goods or, in some cases, whether the goods can be legally imported.
Who Needs It?
Exporters require Certificates of Origin to comply with Letters of Credit, import Customs requirements, or buyer requests.
Why Does the Chamber of Commerce Sign Certificates of Origin?
International trade agreements recognize local Chambers of Commerce as reputable entities best positioned to verify local companies and their products. In many countries, Chamber of Commerce membership is mandatory for doing business.
How Does the Chamber Verify the Information?
The Chamber certifies only the information it can verify. Certification guarantees the accuracy of the information in the document, either for the entire document or limited to the position and identity of the signatory. If the Chamber cannot verify the commercial details, it will only attest to the position and identity of the signatory.
