Unified Origin Country: Changes in Completing EUR.1/EUR-MED Certificates Recommended by European Commission

  • The European Commission recommends a new approach for filling out EUR.1/EUR-MED certificates of origin
  • This change aims to standardize the information on the country of origin across the European Union
  • Customs practices are constantly evolving and it is important to stay updated for smooth import and export processes
  • The new recommendation is to enter “European Union” as the country of origin in both line 1 of field 2 and field 4 of the certificates
  • It is important to update any locally stored templates accordingly.
