Greater Memphis Chamber’s Certificate of Origin
A Certificate of Origin is a document issued by a competent authority, such as a chamber of commerce or a customs agency, that certifies the country in which the goods being exported were produced or manufactured. It serves as a declaration by the exporter, confirming the origin of the goods, and is often required by customs authorities in the importing country to determine eligibility for preferential tariff treatment under trade agreements or to assess import duties. The Certificate of Origin provides important information for customs clearance and helps prevent fraud by ensuring that goods are accurately classified and valued based on their origin.
The Greater Memphis Chamber issues these certificates.
