Country of Origin (C/O)/ Illegal Trans-shipment:
i) Shipment found to be in violation of US origin laws
ii) convicted or assessed administrative penalties in jurisdictions for origin violation
iii) US Customs determined to be illegally trans-shipping goods to the United States
so, where it has any suspicions regarding the origin of goods, US customs can detain, exclude or seek redelivery of goods. At the very last, these actions seriously disrupt the businesses. At present time buyers are very strict to not tolerate non-complying goods to be produced or shipped. The major C/O compliances are as follows-
· Cannot present the required documents for country of origin
· Not having enough machinery or workers for the declared production capacity
· Declared production capacity does not match with that of its legal trans-shipment partner factory.
Illegal trans-shipment criteria’s are as follows:
· Listed by US illegal Transshipper list
· Convicted or determined by local government regarding illegal trans-shipment
· False principle of operations in its country of origin
· False statement of technical skills of production operation just to pretending to work
· Falsification of country origin documents ( i.e. time cards, wage records, ID cards /tickets, etc,) in contradiction to production records and/or transportation documents and/or import/export license, etc.
