Chapter IV: Rules of Origin 

Article IV.1                        Originating Goods 

Except as otherwise provided in this Chapter, a good shall originate in the territory of a Party where: 

(a) the good is wholly obtained or produced entirely in the territory of one or both of the Parties, as defined in Article IV.15; 
(b) each of the non-originating materials used in the production of the good undergoes an applicable change in tariff classification as set forth in Annex IV.1 (Specific Rules of Origin) as a result of production occurring entirely in the territory of one or both of the Parties, or the good otherwise satisfies the applicable requirements of that Annex where no change in tariff classification is required, and the good satisfies all other applicable requirements of this Chapter; 
(c) the good is produced entirely in the territory of one or both of the Parties exclusively from originating materials; or 
(d) except for a good of Chapter 39 or Chapter 50 through 63 or except as provided in Annex IV.1 (Specific Rules of Origin), the good is produced entirely in the territory of one or both of the Parties but one or more of the non-originating materials used in the production of the good cannot undergo a change in tariff classification because both the good and the non-originating materials are classified in the same subheading, or heading that is not further subdivided into subheadings, provided that the regional value-content of the good, determined in accordance with Article IV.2, is not lower than 35 per cent when the transaction value method is used, or 25 per cent when the net cost method is used, and the good meets the other applicable requirements of this Chapter. 

Article IV.2                       Regional Value-content 

1. Except as provided in paragraph 5, each Party shall provide that the regional value content of a good shall be calculated, at the choice of the exporter or producer of the good, on the basis of either the transaction value method set out in paragraph 2 or, for an automotive good of subheading 8407.31 through 8407.34 or heading 87.01 through 87.08, the net cost method set out in paragraph 3. 

2. Each Party shall provide that an exporter or producer may calculate the regional value content of a good on the basis of the following transaction value method: 

RVC = TV - VNM x 100 
                   TV 

where: 

RVC is the regional value content, expressed as a percentage; 

TV is the transaction value of the good, adjusted to an F.O.B. basis; and 

VNM is the value of non-originating materials used by the producer in the production of the good, in accordance with paragraph 6 of this Article. 

3. Each Party shall provide that an exporter or a producer may calculate the regional value content of an automotive good of subheading 8407.31 through 8407.34 or heading 87.01 through 87.08 on the basis of the following net cost method: 

RVC = NC - VNM x 100 
                    NC 

where: 

RVC is the regional value content, expressed as a percentage; 

NC is the net cost of the good; and 

VNM is the value of non-originating materials used by the producer in the production of the good, in accordance with paragraph 6 of this Article. 

4. The value of non-originating materials used by the producer in the production of a good shall not, for purposes of calculating the regional value content of the good under paragraph 2 or 3, include the value of non-originating materials used to produce originating materials that are subsequently used in the production of the good. ¹ 

5. For purposes of calculating the net cost of a good under paragraph 3, the producer of the good may: 

(a) calculate the total cost incurred with respect to all goods produced by that producer, subtract any sales promotion, marketing and after-sales service costs, royalties, shipping and packing costs, as well as non-allowable interest costs that are included in the total cost of all such goods, and then reasonably allocate the resulting net cost of those goods to the good; 
(b) calculate the total cost incurred with respect to all goods produced by that producer, reasonably allocate the total cost to the good, and then subtract any sales promotion, marketing and after-sales service costs, royalties, shipping and packing costs and non-allowable interest costs that are included in the portion of the total cost allocated to the good; or 
(c) reasonably allocate each cost that forms part of the total cost incurred with respect to the good so that the aggregate of these costs does not include any sales promotion, marketing and after-sales service costs, royalties, shipping and packing costs, or non-allowable interest costs. ² 

6. Except as provided in paragraph 7, the value of a material used in the production of a good shall: 

(a) be the transaction value of the material determined in accordance with Article 1 of the Customs Valuation Agreement; 
(b) in the event that there is no transaction value or the transaction value of the material is unacceptable under Article 1 of the Customs Valuation Agreement, be determined in accordance with Articles 2 through 7 of the Customs Valuation Agreement; 
(c) where not covered under subparagraph (a) or (b), include freight, insurance, packing and all other costs incurred in transporting the material to the place of importation; or 
(d) in the case of a domestic transaction, be determined in accordance with the principles of the Customs Valuation Agreement in the same manner as an international transaction, with such modifications as may be required by the circumstances. 

7. The value of an intermediate material shall be: 

(a) the total cost incurred with respect to all goods produced by the producer of the good that can be reasonably allocated to that intermediate material; or 
(b) the sum of all costs that comprise the total cost incurred with respect to that intermediate material that can be reasonably allocated to that intermediate material. 

8. The value of an indirect material shall be based on the Generally Accepted Accounting Principles applicable in the territory of the Party in which the good is produced. 

Article IV.3                           Accumulation 

For purposes of determining whether a good is an originating good, the production of the good in the territory of one or both of the Parties by one or more producers shall, at the choice of the exporter or producer of the good for which preferential tariff treatment is claimed, be considered to have been performed in the territory of either of the Parties by that exporter or producer, provided that: 

(a) all non-originating materials used in the production of the good undergo an applicable tariff classification change set forth in Annex IV.1 (Specific Rules of Origin), and the good satisfies any applicable regional value content requirement, entirely in the territory of one or both of the Parties; and 
(b) the good satisfies all other applicable requirements of this Chapter. 

Article IV.4                           De Minimis 

1. Except as provided in paragraphs 2 and 3, a good shall be considered to be an originating good if the value of all non-originating materials used in the production of the good that do not undergo an applicable change in tariff classification set out in Annex IV.1 (Specific Rules of Origin) is not more than 10 per cent of the transaction value of the good, adjusted to an F.O.B. basis, provided that: 

(a) if the good is subject to a regional value-content requirement, the value of such non-originating materials shall be taken into account in calculating the regional value content of the good; and 
(b) the good satisfies all other applicable requirements of this Chapter. 

2. Except as specified in a product-specific rule of origin of Annex IV.1 (Specific Rules of Origin) applicable to a good, paragraph 1 does not apply to a non-originating material used in the production of a good of Chapter 1 through 24 of the Harmonized System unless the non-originating material is provided for in a different subheading from the good for which origin is being determined under this Article. 

3. A good of Chapter 50 through 63 of the Harmonized System that is not originating because certain fibres or yarns used in the production of the component of the good that determines the tariff classification of the good do not undergo an applicable change in tariff classification set out in Annex IV.1 (Specific Rules of Origin), shall nonetheless be considered as originating if the total weight of all such fibres or yarns in that component is not more than 10 per cent of the total weight of that component. ³ 

Article IV.5           Fungible Goods and Materials 

For purposes of determining whether a good is an originating good: 

(a) where originating and non-originating fungible materials are used in the production of a good, the determination of whether the materials are originating need not be made through the identification of any specific fungible material, but may be determined on the basis of any of the inventory management methods set out in Annex IV.5 (Inventory Management Methods); and
(b) where originating and non-originating fungible goods are physically combined or mixed in inventory and, prior to their exportation, do not undergo any production or any other operation in the territory of the Party in which they were physically combined or mixed in inventory, other than unloading, reloading, or any other operation necessary to preserve the goods in good condition or to transport the goods for exportation to the other Party’s territory, the determination may be made on the basis of any of the inventory management methods set out in Annex IV.5 (Inventory Management Methods). 

Article IV.6           Sets or Assortments of Goods 

1. Except as provided in Annex IV.1 (Specific Rules of Origin), a set or assortment as defined in Rule 3 of the General Rules for the Interpretation of the Harmonized System, shall be considered as originating, provided that: 

(a) all the component products, including packaging materials and containers, are originating; or
(b) where the set or assortment contains non-originating component products, including packaging materials and containers:

(i) at least one of the component products, or all the packaging materials and containers for the set, is originating; and 
(ii) the regional value content of the set or assortment is not less than 50 per cent under the transaction value method.

2. For purposes of subparagraph 1(b), the value of packaging materials and containers for the set shall be taken into account as originating or non-originating materials, as the case may be, in calculating the regional value content of the set. 

Article IV.7           Accessories, Spare Parts and Tools 

Accessories, spare parts and tools delivered with the good that form part of the good's standard accessories, spare parts or tools, shall be considered as originating if the good originates and shall be disregarded in determining whether all the non-originating materials used in the production of the good undergo the applicable change in tariff classification set out in Annex IV.1 (Specific Rules of Origin), provided that: 

(a) the accessories, spare parts and tools are not invoiced separately from the good, whether or not each is listed or detailed on the invoice; 
(b) the quantities and value of the accessories, spare parts or tools are customary for the good; and 
(c) if the good is subject to a regional value content requirement, the value of the accessories, spare parts or tools shall be taken into account as originating or non-originating materials, as the case may be, in calculating the regional value content of the good. 

Article IV.8           Indirect Materials 

An indirect material shall be considered as originating without regard to where it is produced. 

Article IV.9           Packaging Materials and Containers for Retail Sale 

Packaging materials and containers in which a good is packaged for retail sale shall, if classified with the good, be disregarded in determining whether all the non-originating materials used in the production of the good undergo the applicable change in tariff classification set out in Annex IV.1 (Specific Rules of Origin) and, if the good is subject to a regional value content requirement, the value of such packaging materials and containers shall be taken into account as originating or non-originating materials, as the case may be, in calculating the regional value content of the good. 

Article IV.10          Packing Materials and Containers for Shipment 

Packing materials and containers in which a good is packed for shipment shall be disregarded in determining whether: 

(a) the non-originating materials used in the production of the good undergo an applicable change in tariff classification set out in Annex IV.1 (Specific Rules of Origin); and 
(b) the good satisfies a regional value-content requirement. 

Article IV.11           Transshipment 

A good shall not be considered to be an originating good by reason of having undergone production that satisfies the requirements of Article IV.1 if, subsequent to that production, the good: 

(a) undergoes further production or any other operation outside the territories of  the Parties, other than unloading, reloading or any other operation necessary to preserve it in good condition or to transport the good to the territory of a Party;
(b) does not remain under customs control while outside the territories of the Parties; or 
(c) enters into trade or consumption in the territory of a non-Party. 

Article IV.12           Non-Qualifying Operations 

Except for sets of Article IV.6 or of Annex IV.1 (Specific Rules of Origin) or except as specified in a product-specific rule of origin of Annex IV.1 (Specific Rules of Origin) applicable to the good, a good shall not be considered to be an originating good merely by reason of : 

(a) disassembly of the good into its parts; 
(b) a change in the end use of the good; 
(c) the mere separation of one or more individual materials or components from an artificial mixture; 
(d) mere dilution with water or another substance that does not materially alter the characteristics of the good;
