A good is considered to be AANZFTA originating if the good is wholly obtained or produced in a member country, or it meets either of the following conditions:

• • • Goods meets the general criteria:
      • Regional Value Content (RVC): 40% minimum, or
      • Change Tariff classification at the 4-digit level (CTH – non-originating materials must be in a different HS Group from the HS Group of the finished product)
    • Goods with specific rules: some goods do not apply the general criteria, but the product specific rules applied to them are specified in the List of Product-Specific Rules.

AANZFTA Certificate of Origin is the AANZ C/O form. Vietnam and ASEAN countries issue a paper C/O while Australia and New Zealand issue an electronic C/O, so the electronic C/O AANZ issued by Australia/New Zealand will be printed out and submitted to the customs offices of ASEAN importing countries. Error AANZ C/O can be corrected or renewed. C/O AANZ can be issued before, during or after (no more than 1 year) the time of export. AANZFTA does not have a provision for Self-Certification of Origin.
