How to make out an invoice declaration

  • The exporter should type, stamp or print the following declaration (as mentioned in Appendix 4) on the invoice or any other commercial document which describes the products concerned in sufficient detail to enable them to be identified (e.g. delivery note or packing list):

 

The exporter of the products covered by this document (customs [or competent governmental]
authorisation No … (1)) declares that, except where otherwise clearly indicated, these products are of
… preferential origin (2).
................................................... (3) (Place and date)
....................................................(4) (Name (in clear script) and signature of the exporter)

(1) Put your approved exporter authorization number (for consignments above €6 000).
(2) Put the origin of your product, either EU or EU, Columbia, Peru, or Ecuador.
(3) Place and date, if not otherwise indicated on the invoice/document.
(4) Name (in clear script) and signature of the exporter. An approved exporter may, within the scope
of his authorisation, be waived from the obligation of signature and in so doing does not need to give the name
of the signatory.

 

  • The declaration can be made in any official language of the EU or official languages of the FTA trade partner according to the language versions in the Appendix 4

Validity and record keeping.
