Certificate of Origin

A certificate of origin is an official document that states in which country or group of countries a certain product was manufactured. Many countries outside the EU demand that a certificate of origin is included when importing goods. The rules regarding certificates of origin are laid down in EU and Dutch legislation. This legislation stipulates exactly under what conditions the origin of goods is determined. The Chambers of Commerce have the task to process requests for certificates of origin and to issue these certificates.
