If you are looking to trade goods between the UK and another country, your Customs Clearance Agents UK may advise you that there are rules of Origin they need to be met for the shipment, which will allow you to claim a preferential rate of import Duty at destination. Your Customs Clearance Agents UK will be able to look on the UK Trade Tariff using the HS Code you provide them for the goods to check if there is a duty preference rate, the rules of origin will always apply.
Your Customs Clearance Agents UK should advise you that if the goods have been altered or changed whilst they have been in the UK, but were imported from another country, depending on what process the goods have undertaken, it may have changed the country of origin.
Sometime, the goods may have more than one Origin and will need to be classified accordingly, your Customs Clearance Agents UK will be able to give you assistance and advise on how to get your goods classified for shipment.
Your Customs Clearance Agents UK, will advise you that there are two main categories of origin outlined in the rules of origin as below:
- Goods which have been wholly obtained or produced in a single country.
- Goods whose production involved materials from more than one country.
Once you have determined the Origin of your goods, your Customs Clearance Agents UK will advise you that you will need to apply for a Certificate of Origin, you will need to apply for this yourself through your local Chamber of Commerce, or your Customs Clearance Agents UK may be happy to apply for the Certificate on your behalf. However, you will be required to supply all the correct information to your Customs Clearance Agents UK to allow them to make the application on your behalf.
