The “Certificate of Origin” also called “CO” or “COO” is required to import “Made in Japan” products in most international trading, and required to benefit traders from EPA, TPA, FTP and so on. The Japan inspection Organization (JIO) issue “Country of Origin Certificate”. In order to apply Certificate of Origin, the products must be “Made in Japan” and “Assembled in Japan” with more than 60% parts of Japan origin. The product that cannot pass this standard, is not eligible to get Certificate of Origin.
The COO will be certified by this Organization, that the merchandise in a particulate exported shipment has been wholly produced, manufactured, and processed in Japan. This Organization does not issue the certificate for goods that are shipped from Japan, but were not “Made in Japan”. If the goods were produced in two or more countries, the Certificate of Origin will be issue if more than 51 percent production process and the last working or processing is carried out in Japan.
