Origin vs Originating • Non-preferential rules of origin
– Standard rules attached to Normal Trade Relations (Column 1) or Column 2 countries (19 CFR 134)
• Preferential rules of origin– Rules attached to trade preference programs and inherently
more restrictive– If met, goods may receive preferential duty treatment

Non-Originating• A non-originating good does not meet the applicable
trade preference rules• A non-originating good does not receive preferential

Originating• An originating good is eligible to receive trade
preference program benefits because it meets the applicable trade preference program rules
• The trade preference program rules are found in the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States, General Note 4 (GSP) and General Note16 (AGOA)

Wholly Grown or Produced Entirely• All materials must originate – and production occur – in
the territory of one or more of the parties to the agreement
• No de minimis exception for small quantities of non-originating materials

Double Substantial TransformationNon-originating materials may be included in the value of materials if they are substantially transformed into a new and different article of commerce – an intermediate good – before they undergo a second substantial transformation in the production of the finished good

Double Substantial Transformation (cont.)
When a double substantial transformation occurs, the value of the imported material used in the first substantial transformation may be treated as an originating material in the 35% value-content calculation

Value-Added ConceptA good must be substantially transformed into a new and different article of commerce, and it must meet the 35% value-added requirement
• The value of all materials from and cost of processing operations that take place in the Parties must be at least 35% of the adjusted value of the good

Value-Content RequirementThe value of originating materials (VOM) plus the direct costs of processing (DCP) must be equal to or greater than 35% of the appraised value (AV) of the good
VOM + DCP > 35% AVAV
