1 INTRODUCTION<br />

1.1 Certificate of Origin<br />

A Certificate of Origin (CO) is a trade document certifying the origin of the goods to be<br />

exported. Certificates of Origin can be broadly classified into Ordinary CO and Preferential<br />

CO.<br />

<strong>Singapore</strong> <strong>Customs</strong> issues the Ordinary COs and is the authorized agency to issue<br />

Preferential COs under the various Schemes of Preferences and Free Trade Agreements<br />

(FTAs).<br />

1.2 Ordinary Certificate of Origin<br />

An Ordinary CO, also known as non-preferential CO is used to satisfy your overseas buyer<br />

that the products exported are wholly obtained, produced or manufactured in <strong>Singapore</strong>.<br />

1.3 Preferential Certificate of Origin<br />

A Preferential CO not only certifies that the product(s) are wholly obtained, produced or<br />

manufactured in <strong>Singapore</strong>, but it is also a document by which your overseas buyer needs<br />

to claim preferential tariff treatment when importing your products under one of the Schemes<br />

of Preferences or FTAs such as:<br />

a) Generalized System of Preferences (GSP)<br />

b) ASEAN Trade In Goods Agreement (ATIGA)<br />

c) Commonwealth Preference Certificate (CPC)<br />

d) Global System of Trade Preferences (GSTP)<br />

e) Free Trade Agreement (FTA)<br />

A Preferential CO therefore improves the competitive edge for your exports.<br />

2.1 Before You Submit Your Certificate of Origin (CO) Application, you must :<br />

Step 1 as indicated in flowchart – Register as a Manufacturer<br />

The product for export must be manufactured by a factory which is registered with the Tariffs<br />

and Trade Services Branch (TTSB) of <strong>Singapore</strong> <strong>Customs</strong>. If you are the exporter, you must<br />

check if the manufacturer of the product has met this requirement.<br />

2 Exporter may appoint agent.<br />

JAN 2012<br />

6


If not, the manufacturer may register by submitting the “ Manufacturer’s Application Form”<br />

which is available in <strong>Singapore</strong> <strong>Customs</strong>’ website at<br />

“http://www.customs.gov.sg/leftNav/trad/Certificates+of+Origin.htm”. Information on the<br />

registration is available in the same website.<br />

Step 2 as indicated in flowchart – Submit the Manufacturing Cost Statement<br />

Upon successful registration, the manufacturer must ensure that the product qualifies for the<br />

respective CO Schemes. He does this by submitting the Manufacturing Cost Statement<br />

(MCS) of his product to TTSB for verification. This is to ensure that his product meets the<br />

origin criteria for the CO Scheme. MCS procedures and formats are available at<br />

“http://www.customs.gov.sg/leftNav/trad/Certificates+of+Origin.htm” as well as the origin<br />

criteria for schemes other than FTAs.<br />

The Rules of Origin for the respective FTAs are available at “http://www.fta.gov.sg/”.<br />

The approved MCS for the product registered is valid for one year from the date of the<br />

costing subject to the condition that there has not been any change in sourcing patterns or<br />

prices of raw materials and other costs declared in the approved MCS.<br />

2.2 Submitting Application of CO with Export Permit through TradeNet® System<br />

(step 3 as indicated in flowchart)<br />

With TTSB’s letter of verification of the approved MCS, you must submit your application of<br />

CO together with Export Permit through the TradeNet® System. Select Permit Message<br />

Type “OUTDEC/WITH CO”.<br />

2.3 Accuracy and Completeness of Your Permit/CO Application<br />

You must check for accuracy and completeness of all the details in your application. The<br />

key areas to check in the application of the Certificate of Origin are:<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

name of consignor and consignee<br />

item nos., to be in sequence<br />

marks and nos. of packages<br />

description of goods. This should be identical to the description indicated on the<br />

invoice and the approved MCS.<br />

the origin criterion must be clearly indicated. This must be according to the rules<br />

and conditions as stated under the various Schemes of Preference<br />

Certificates/FTAs etc<br />

gross weight or other quantity (eg: pieces, kgm, etc)<br />

number and date of invoice. The invoice date in the application must not be later<br />

than the approval date of the Certificate.<br />

Registered Manufacturer, MCS or Letter of Undertaking (renewal for MCS) must<br />

be valid.<br />

Any incomplete or wrong declaration will lead to rejection of your Permit/CO Application or, if<br />

approved, may be subjected to overseas <strong>Customs</strong>’ queries on your goods and CO.<br />

If you are an exporter and you have bought the goods from a local manufacturer, you are<br />

required to provide the name and contact person of the manufacturer at the “Declarant<br />

Remarks” field of your Permit Application as follows:<br />

Name of Manufacturer : _________________<br />

Contact Person : _________________<br />

Tel No. : _________________<br />

2.4 Application for Textiles and Textile Products<br />

For garment products qualifying as originating goods under the USSFTA, you must declare<br />

the Certificate Type as “18” when you declare your application via TradeNet®. If you do not<br />

have the TradeNet® software, you may engage a freight forwarder or a Service Centre to<br />

declare the application on your behalf.<br />

2.5 Application for Retrospective/Retroactive COs<br />

On request by your overseas importers, provided that this is allowed under the rules of the<br />

Scheme/FTA, you may apply for Retrospective/Retroactive CO for shipments that have<br />

been previously exported and Export Permit had been obtained.<br />

Select Permit Message Type – “Certificate of Origin”. An additional detail that you will need<br />

to declare is the Export Permit No. for the shipment to be entered in the “Previous Export<br />

Permit No.” field. Please indicate the Unique Reference Number (URN) on this Export<br />

Permit and attach it as a scanned document at the time of retrospective application via<br />

Tradenet®. Alternatively you may fax it to : 6337 6360 or 6337 6361.<br />

2.6 Approval Message<br />

If you have submitted all the details correctly in your CO and Export Permit application, the<br />

System will approve your application by allotting the CO and the Cargo Clearance Permit<br />

(CCP) with a number each and transmit the approval message back to you.<br />

An example of an approval message is as follows:<br />

A51 – APPROVED BY SINGAPORE CUSTOMS. FOR ALL ITEMS.<br />

Y96 – APPLICATION IS APPROVED ON CONDITION THAT DECLARANT/<br />

EXPORTER HAS EXERCISED DUE DILIGENCE TO DETERMINE THAT THE<br />

JAN 2012<br />

GOODS ARE NOT CONTROLLED UNDER STRATEGIC GOODS (CONTROL) ACT<br />

& A STRATEGIC GOODS PERMIT IS NOT REQUIRED. FOR ALL ITEMS.<br />

You must take action on the approval message whenever there is a condition to the<br />

approval.<br />

You should also record the URN, UEN. and CCP No. in all your supporting documents for<br />

reference purposes in any subsequent correspondence with the <strong>Singapore</strong> <strong>Customs</strong>.<br />

Once you have transmitted a CO and a Permit Application to <strong>Singapore</strong> <strong>Customs</strong> for<br />

processing, the System will create a record of your application in the TradeNet® Portal for<br />

Declarant. The record will be updated with the Permit information when the Permit<br />

Application is approved. This Permit record will be retained in the TradeNet® Portal for 90<br />

days from the date of approval.<br />

You may make online enquiries on the processing status and Permit details during this<br />

period.<br />

2.7 Cargo Clearance Permit (CCP)<br />

You will print the CCP (Export Permit) in your office. The authorised person shall check<br />

through the particulars as reflected in the CCP one final time to ensure accuracy and<br />

completeness.<br />

2.8 Collection of CO (step 4 as indicated in flowchart)<br />

The CO can be collected between 2 to 4 working hours upon approval of its application.<br />

The declarant or his representative must present a copy of the Letter of Authorization and<br />

the exporter’s invoice for each CO. Specimens of the Letter of Authorization can be found<br />

at “http://www.customs.gov.sg/leftNav/trad/Certificates+of+Origin.htm”.<br />

3. OTHER USEFUL INFORMATION ON CO APPLICATION<br />

3.1 Manual Submission of CO Application for Certified True Copy<br />

When the CO sent to your overseas importer is lost, stolen or destroyed, you may apply for<br />

a “Certified True Copy” showing the same CO Reference number and date of approval.<br />

Under this circumstance, you may manually apply for the CO to <strong>Singapore</strong> <strong>Customs</strong>, #07-02<br />

Revenue House with a written request. You will complete (type-written) 1 set of the relevant<br />

CO application and attach with the following documents:<br />

• Written request explaining the need for Certified True Copy<br />

• Previous Export Permit/CCP that was applied with the lost CO<br />

(A processing fee of $4 for application of Certified True Copy is payable at SingPost via<br />

NETs, cash card or credit card upon submission)<br />

3.2 Exporter who is not a manufacturer<br />

If the goods to be exported by a trader are purchased from a registered manufacturer with<br />

<strong>Singapore</strong> <strong>Customs</strong>, the trader may apply for a CO by obtaining information from the<br />

manufacturer that his products satisfy the rules of origin for the CO applied for. The trader<br />

shall obtain a Declaration by the Manufacturer that the goods are manufactured by him and<br />

that the manufacturer has a valid Manufacturing Cost Statement verified by <strong>Singapore</strong><br />

<strong>Customs</strong>.<br />

processing fee for each copy is payable.<br />

must be endorsed by the <strong>Singapore</strong> <strong>Customs</strong>. The trader must inform <strong>Singapore</strong> <strong>Customs</strong> in<br />

writing within 2 weeks from the date of approval of the CO if he requires an amendment.<br />

If the consignment is not exported within a month from the date of approval, the full set of<br />

documents must be returned to <strong>Singapore</strong> <strong>Customs</strong> for cancellation together with a letter<br />

explaining the reasons for the cancellation.<br />

3.5 Date of Cost Statements / Letters of Undertaking<br />
