Sets |
---|
A provision that clarifies circumstances under which sets can be considered originating. In particular, it refers to situations where not all of the items in the set are originating. Sets, even when comprising of different items, can be classified under one commodity code based on the General Rules of Interpretation (GIR). Provisions on sets often set an originating value threshold above which the set is considered originating.
Example:
A stationary set consists of five different items. Based on the individual rules of origin for each products under the given FTA, four of these products are originating and one is not. The FTA states that sets can still be considered originating when the value of non-originating products does not exceed 10% of the value of the total set. As the non-originating product in this example constitutes 25% of the value, the set cannot be considered originating. Click here for more information on WCO website.
