Adempimenti snelliti e spazio a lavorazioni in più Stati
Gli accordi commerciali conclusi o negoziati dalla Ue negli ultimi anni puntano sulla semplificazione
Recent agreements have shifted away from the traditional EUR.1 circulation certificate, opting instead for a more direct approach to proving preferred origin. The new method requires operators to demonstrate the origin requirements for each specific shipment, either through a verified statement from the exporter (registered in the Rex system) or by the importer declaring their knowledge of the goods' origin.
The Rex system, in use since 2017, facilitates the certification of preferred origin through invoice or other commercial documents.
Another notable change is the easing or removal of the drawback prohibition in many recent agreements. This change allows for the preferential treatment of products made from non-originating materials without incurring duties, which has been particularly beneficial for certain industries. Additionally, the concept of "origin cumulation" plays a crucial role in the new agreements.
This allows for the consideration of multiple processing operations across various partner countries, which is especially relevant in today's globally distributed production scenarios. An interesting example of this is the potential establishment of a diagonal cumulation area in the Indonesia agreement, which would include other ASEAN countries (Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Timor Leste, and Vietnam) in addition to Japan.
