What information does a certificate of origin include?

  1. Name of the seller

  2. Country where the goods were produced

  3. Shipping date

  4. Destination of the goods

The correct answer is: Country where the goods were produced

A certificate of origin is a crucial document in international trade that serves to certify the country in which the goods were produced or manufactured. This information is vital because it affects the tariff rates and trade agreements that may apply to the goods in the importing country. By clearly indicating the country of origin, the certificate helps authorities determine trade compliance, apply the correct duties, and enforce regulations regarding trade policies. While other information, such as the name of the seller, shipping dates, or destination of the goods, can be relevant in shipping documents, it is specifically the country of production that is the primary and most significant element included in a certificate of origin. This focus on production location makes the certificate an essential component in determining the legality and compliance of goods entering a particular market.
