PUBLIC NOTICE NO.51/ (2015-2020)
New Delhi, dated the 30th December, 2016
Subject: - Certification of Origin of Goods for European Union Generalised System of Preferences
(EU-GSP) - Modification of the system as of 1 January 2017.
In exercise of powers conferred under paragraph 2.04 of the Foreign Trade Policy, 2015-2020,
the Director General of Foreign Trade hereby inserts a new sub para (c) under Para 2.104 Generalised
System of Preferences (GSP) as under:
- The European Union (EU) has introduced a self-certification scheme for certifying the rules
of origin under GSP from 1.1.2017 onwards. Under the Registered Exporter System (REX)
being introduced from 1.1.2017, exporters with a REX number will be able to self-certify the
Statement on Origin of their goods being exported to EU under the GSP Scheme. The
registration on REX is without any fee or charges and this system would eventually phase out
the current system of issuance of Certificates of Origin (Form-A) by the Competent
Authorities listed in Appendix-2C of FTP (2015-20) by 1.1.2018 (one year transition period).
The details of the scheme are at Annex 1 to Appendix 2C of the Foreign Trade Policy (2015-20).
- Effect of this Public Notice: Registered Exporters System (REX) as of 1 January 2017 for the
EU Generalised System of Preferences (GSP) is notified.
(A.K.Bhalla)
