The Directorate-General for Taxation and Customs Union is pleased to announce the release of updated Guidance on the Preferential Rules of Origin. This development comes as a result of extensive collaboration with EU Member States and aims to enhance clarity and compliance in international trade.
Key highlights of the updated guidance include the addition of a section on the verification of the Proof of origin (Section C). This section addresses the processes for requests exchanged between EU Member States and third countries, as well as clarifications on importer’s knowledge.
Furthermore, the guidance incorporates updates reflecting recent changes to rules of origin in preferential agreements. Notably, it includes revisions associated with the Revised Pan-Euro-Mediterranean Convention and the entry into force of the EU-Chile Interim Trade Agreement (ITA).
