🌍 Certificate of Origin (COO) – Fast, Authentic & Complian
✅ What is a Certificate of Origin (COO)?
A Certificate of Origin (COO) is an essential international trade document that certifies the country where goods are manufactured or produced. It is required by the importing country’s customs authorities to:
Determine the origin of goods
Grant preferential tariff benefits under trade agreements (FTA/PTA)
Enforce import restrictions or quotas
The COO must be issued or approved by designated agencies authorized by the Government of India (e.g., DGFT, Export Promotion Councils, Chambers of Commerce).
