Need for the Document

A specific form identifying the goods, in which the authority or body empowered to issue it, certifies expressly that the goods to which the certificate relates originate in a specific country. This certificate may also include a declaration by the manufacturer, producer, supplier, exporter or other competent person.

Information which might help

It is strongly recommended that copies are submitted with the original set of Arab-British Certificate of Origin forms, this will ensure a reduced fee.
In the event of copies being submitted subsequently for certification, then the original document fee will be payable. The original Certificate of Origin form, or a photocopy of it showing the A-BCC stamp, is required as a back up and the serial number of the original Certificate of Origin must be entered on copies.

Other uses of the Document/Certificate

The Certificate of Origin is required for the following reasons:

• It is a legislative requirement of the importing country.
• It may be required by a Letter of Credit.
• The importer may want the goods to be of a certain origin
• The Customs authorities may require proof of origin.
