What is a certificate of origin?

The certificate of origin is a document stating where the goods you’re shipping were grown, manufactured or produced. It’s needed to confirm the goods being shipped can enter a country and potentially be eligible for relief or reduction in duty. 

You can usually state where the goods were grown, manufactured or produced on the commercial invoice. However, some countries require a specific certificate confirming the origin of the goods. This document also needs to be signed by the relevant government department, chamber of commerce or embassy of the exporting country.
