Understanding Certificates of Origin

Description

Chambers of commerce are uniquely qualified to issue certificates of origin and other trade documents, yet for many the purpose and process remain a mystery. Join to learn best practices around issuing certificates of origin and demystify the chamber role in the process.

The session will cover:

• How to minimize liability and risk for the chamber 
• Role of the chamber and purpose of the certificate of origin 
• Best practices and who writes the rules 
• Differences between types of certificates of origin 

Attendees will also be provided a basic certificate of origin template and a chamber affidavit form. 

The webinar will be led by Alex Sonifrank, VP Partnerships at the American World Trade Chamber of Commerce (AWTCC). The chamber specializes in working with and assisting international exporters and also manages a chamber partnership program with over 150 chamber partners.
