1. Introduction

1.1. Certificate of Origin

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

exported. Certificates of Origin can be broadly classified into Ordinary CO and Preferential

CO.

Singapore Customs issues the Ordinary COs and is the authorized agency to issue

Preferential COs under the various Schemes of Preferences and Free Trade Agreements

(FTAs).

1.2. Ordinary Certificate of Origin

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

that the products exported are wholly obtained, produced or manufactured in Singapore.

1.3. Preferential Certificate of Origin

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

manufactured in Singapore, but it is also a document by which your overseas buyer needs to

claim preferential tariff treatment when importing your products under Free Trade Agreement

or one of the Schemes of Preferences.

A Preferential CO therefore improves the competitive edge for your exports.

2. Operational Procedures for Application of Certificate

of Origin

2.1. Before you apply for a Certificate of Origin (CO), you must:

Step 1 – Register as a Manufacturer

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

and Trade Services Branch (TTSB) of Singapore Customs. If you are the exporter, you must

check if the manufacturer of the product has met this requirement.

If not, the manufacturer may register by submitting the “Manufacturer’s Application Form”.

Step 2 – Submit the Manufacturing Cost Statement (MCS)

Upon successful registration, the manufacturer will submit the MCS of his product to TTSB

for verification. This is to ensure that his product meets the origin criteria for the CO Scheme.

Application procedures and MCS formats are available at

http://www.customs.gov.sg/leftNav/trad/Certificates+of+Origin.htm.

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

The approved MCS for the product registered is valid for one year from the date of the

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

prices of raw materials and other costs declared in the approved MCS.

Page | 6

2.2. Submitting Application of CO with Export Permit through

TradeNet®

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

CO together with Export Permit through the TradeNet®. Select Permit Message Type

“OUTDEC/WITH CO”.

For deferred printing of approved CO, you will need to indicate “Deferred Printing for CO“

in the Customs Procedure Code field. The approved CO will be printed on the 2nd

working

day from the date of approval of the CO. Some illustrations on how the 2nd

working day is

interpreted as follows:

Example 1

If the CO was approved on 01 April 2013 (Monday), with deferred printing option, the

approved CO will be printed on 03 April 2013 (Wednesday) since 01, 02 and 03 April 2013

are working days.

Example 2

If the CO was approved on 05 April 2013 (Friday), with deferred printing option, the

approved CO will be printed on 08 April 2013 (Monday) since 07 April 2013 is a Sunday

while 06 and 08 April 2013 are working days

Example 3

If the CO was approved on 30 April 2013 (Tuesday), with deferred printing option, the

approved CO will be printed on 03 May 2013 (Wednesday) since 01 May 2013 is a Public

Holiday while 02 and 03 May 2013 are working days.

Depending on product and where you will like to collect your CO, the Application Product

Type codes are:

NA - Application for non-textile products at Singapore Customs Airport Outpost

(Collection of CO at SAAA-Air Cargo)

NH - Application for non-textile products at Singapore Customs

(Collection of CO at CrimsonLogic (CL), Chinatown Point)

TX - Application for textile products at Singapore Customs

(Collection of CO at CL, Chinatown Point)

2.3. Accuracy and Completeness of your Permit/CO Application

You must check for accuracy and completeness of all the details in your application. The key

areas to check in the application of the Certificate of Origin are:

name of consignor and consignee

item nos. to be in sequence

marks and nos. of packages

description of goods. This should be identical to the description indicated on the

invoice and the approved MCS.

the origin criterion must be clearly indicated. This must be according to the rules

and conditions as stated under the various Schemes of Preference

Certificates/FTAs etc

gross weight or other quantity (eg. pieces, kilograms (kgm), etc)

number and date of invoice. The invoice date in the application must not be later

than the approval date of the Certificate.

Registered Manufacturer, MCS or Letter of Undertaking (renewal for MCS) must

be valid.

If you are an exporter and you have bought the goods from a local manufacturer, you are

required to provide the name and contact person of the manufacturer at the “Declarant

Remarks” field of your Permit Application as follows:

Name of Manufacturer : _________________

Contact Person : _________________

Tel No. : _________________

2.4. Application for Textiles and Textiles Products

For garment products qualifying as originating goods under the USSFTA, you must declare

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

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

declare the application on your behalf.

2.5. Application for Retrospective/Retroactive COs

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

Scheme/FTA, you may apply for Retrospective/Retroactive CO for shipments that have been

previously exported and Export Permit had been obtained.

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

to declare is the Export Permit No. for the shipment to be entered in the “Previous Export

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

Permit and attach it as a scanned document at the time of retrospective application via

Tradenet®. Alternatively you may fax it to: 6337 6360 or 6337 6361.

2.6. Approval Message

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

System will approve your application by allotting the CO and the Cargo Clearance Permit

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

Example of an approval message

A51 – APPROVED BY SINGAPORE CUSTOMS. FOR ALL ITEMS.

Y96 – APPLICATION IS APPROVED ON CONDITION THAT DECLARANT/

EXPORTER HAS EXERCISED DUE DILIGENCE TO DETERMINE THAT THE GOODS

ARE NOT CONTROLLED UNDER STRATEGIC GOODS (CONTROL) ACT & A

STRATEGIC GOODS PERMIT IS NOT REQUIRED. FOR ALL ITEMS.

You must take action on the approval message whenever there is a condition to the approval.

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

reference purposes in any subsequent correspondence with the Singapore Customs.

Once you have transmitted a CO and a Permit Application to Singapore Customs for

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

Declarant. The record will be updated with the Permit information when the Permit

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

days from the date of approval.

You may make online enquiries on the processing status and Permit details during this period.

Page | 9

2.7. Cargo Clearance Permit (CCP)

You will print the CCP (Export Permit) in your office and verify the particulars as reflected

in the CCP one final time to ensure accuracy and completeness.

2.8. Collection of CO

The CO can be collected between 2 to 4 working hours upon approval of its application. For

those who select deferred printing of CO, the CO can be collected on 2nd

working day from

the date of approval of the CO. Examples on how the 2nd

working day is interpreted can be

found in para 2.2.

The declarant or his representative must present a copy of the Letter of Authorization and the

exporter’s invoice for each CO. Specimens of the Letter of Authorization can be found at

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

For COs approved under Application Product Type – “NH”, “TX”, you will collect the CO

from CrimsonLogic Service Bureau, 133 New Bridge Road, #19-01/02 Chinatown Point (Tel:

63390798).

For COs approved under Application Product Type – “NA”, the CO can be collected at our

Airport Outpost, SAAA (AirCargo), Room 107, Ground Floor, SATS Airfreight Terminal 3,

Core H, Changi Airfreight Centre (Tel : 65459597). There is an administrative fee imposed

by SAAA for the service.

When the authorised signatory of the exporter receive the CO, he must check the accuracy of

the CO. After checking and ensuring that the CO is complete and accurate, he will sign in the

column - “Declaration by the exporter”, failing which the CO will not be accepted by the

overseas Customs authority.

3. Other Useful Information on CO Application

3.1. Manual Submission of CO Application for Certified True Copy

When the CO sent to your overseas importer is lost, stolen or destroyed, you may apply for a

“Certified True Copy” showing the same CO Reference number and date of approval. Under

this circumstance, you may manually apply for the CO to Singapore Customs, #07-02

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

CO application and attach with the following documents:

Written request explaining the need for Certified True Copy

Previous Export Permit/CCP that was applied with the lost CO

Copy of the approved CO

3.2. Exporter who is not a Manufacturer

If the goods to be exported by a trader are purchased from a registered manufacturer with

Singapore Customs, the trader may apply for a CO by obtaining information from the

manufacturer that his products satisfy the rules of origin for the CO applied for. The trader

shall obtain a Declaration by the Manufacturer that the goods are manufactured by him and

that the manufacturer has a valid Manufacturing Cost Statement verified by Singapore

Customs.

3.3. Additional Copies of CO

You may apply for a maximum of nine (9) additional copies of the CO. A processing fee for

each copy is payable.

3.4. Amendment and Cancellations

You may submit your request for amendment of the CO electronically via TradeNet®. Any

previously approved CO must be returned for cancellation. Alternatively, the trader may

inform Singapore Customs in writing within 2 weeks from the date of approval of the CO if

he requires an amendment to be endorsed by the Singapore Customs.

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

documents must be returned to Singapore Customs for cancellation together with a letter

explaining the reasons for the cancellation.
