The first two columns in the list describe the product obtained. The first column gives the heading number or chapter number used in the Harmonised System and the second column gives the description of goods used in that system for that heading or chapter. For each entry in the first two columns, a rule is specified in column 3 or 4. Where, in some cases, the entry in the first column is preceded by an \"ex\", this means that the rules in column 3 or 4 apply only to the part of that heading as described in column 2.\n\n2. Where several heading numbers are grouped together in column 1 or a chapter number is given and the description of products in column 2 is therefore given in general terms, the adjacent rules in columns 3 or 4 apply to all products which, under the Harmonised System, are classified in headings of the corresponding chapter or in any of the headings grouped together in column 1.\n\n3. Where there are different rules in the list applying to different products within a heading, each indent contains the description of that part of the heading covered by the adjacent rules in column 3 or 4.\n\n4. Where, for an entry in the first two columns, a rule is specified in both columns 3 and 4, the exporter may opt, as an alternative, to apply either the rule set out in column 3 or that set out in column 4. If no origin rule is given in column 4, the rule set out in column 3 is to be applied.\n\n### Note 3:\n\n1. The provisions of Article 6 of this Annex, concerning products having acquired originating status which are used in the manufacture of other products, shall apply, regardless of whether this status has been acquired inside the factory where these products are used or in another factory in the European Union or in the signatory Andean Countries.\n\n   Example:\n\n   An engine of heading 8407, for which the rule states that the value of the non-originating materials which may be incorporated may not exceed 50 per cent of the ex-works price, is made from \"other alloy steel roughly shaped by forging\" of heading ex 7224.\n\n   If this forging has been forged in the European Union from a non-originating ingot, it has already acquired originating status by virtue of the rule for heading ex 7224 in the list. The forging can then count as originating in the value-calculation for the engine, regardless of whether it was produced in the same factory or in another factory in the European Union. The value of the non-originating ingot is thus not taken into account when adding up the value of the non-originating materials used.\n\n2. The rule in the list represents the minimum amount of working or processing required, and the carrying-out of more working or processing also confers originating status; conversely, the carrying-out of less working or processing cannot confer originating status. Thus, if a rule provides that non-originating material, at a certain level of manufacture, may be used, the use of such material at an earlier stage of manufacture is allowed, and the use of such material at a later stage is not.\n\n3. Without prejudice to Note 3.2, where a rule uses the expression \"manufacture from materials of any heading\", materials of any heading(s) (even materials of the same description and heading as the product) may be used, subject, however, to any specific limitations which may also be contained in the rule.\n\n   However, the expression \"manufacture from materials of any heading, including other materials of heading …\" or \"manufacture from materials of any heading, including other materials of the same heading as the product\" means that materials of any heading(s) may be used, except those of the same description as the product as given in column 2 of the list.\n\n4. When a rule in the list specifies that a product may be manufactured from more than one material, this means that one or more materials may be used, but does not require that all be used.\n\n   Example:\n\n   The rule for fabrics of headings 5208 to 5212 provides that natural fibres may be used and that chemical materials, among other materials, may also be used. This does not mean that both have to be used; it is possible to use one or the other, or both.\n\n5. Where a rule in the list specifies that a product must be manufactured from a particular material, the condition obviously does not prevent the use of other materials which, because of their inherent nature, cannot satisfy the rule. (See also Note 6.2 below in relation to textiles).\n\n   Example:\n\n   The rule for prepared foods of heading 1904, which specifically excludes the use of cereals and their derivatives, does not prevent the use of mineral salts, chemicals and other additives which are not products from cereals.\n\n   However, this does not apply to products which, although they cannot be manufactured from the particular materials specified in the list, can be produced from a material of the same nature at an earlier stage of manufacture.\n\n   Example:\n\n   In the case of an article of apparel of ex Chapter 62 made from non-woven materials, if the use of only non-originating yarn is allowed for this class of article, it is not possible to start from non-woven cloth – even if non-woven cloths cannot normally be made from yarn. In such cases, the starting material would normally be at the stage before yarn – that is, the fibre stage.\n\n6. Where, in a rule in the list, two percentages are given for the maximum value of non-originating materials that can be used, then these percentages may not be added together. In other words, the maximum value of all the non-originating materials used may never exceed the higher of the percentages given. Furthermore, the individual percentages must not be exceeded, in relation to the particular materials to which they apply.\n\n### Note 4:\n\n1. The term \"natural fibres\" is used in the list to refer to fibres other than artificial or synthetic fibres. It is restricted to the stages before spinning takes place, including waste, and, unless otherwise specified, includes fibres which have been carded, combed or otherwise processed, but not spun.\n\n2. The term \"natural fibres\" includes horsehair of heading 0503, silk of headings 5002 and 5003, as well as wool-fibres and fine or coarse animal hair of headings 5101 to 5105, cotton fibres of headings 5201 to 5203, and other vegetable fibres of headings 5301 to 5305.\n\n3. The terms \"textile pulp\", \"chemical materials\" and \"paper-making materials\" are used in the list to describe the materials, not classified in Chapters 50 to 63, which can be used to manufacture artificial, synthetic or paper fibres or yarns.\n\n4. The term \"man-made staple fibres\" is used in the list to refer to synthetic or artificial filament tow, staple fibres or waste, of headings 5501 to 5507.\n\n### Note 5:\n\n1. Where, for a given product in the list, reference is made to this Note, the conditions set out in column 3 shall not be applied to any basic textile materials used in the manufacture of this product and which, taken together, represent 10 per cent or less of the total weight of all the basic textile materials used. (See also Notes 5.3 and 5.4 below.)\n\n2. However, the tolerance mentioned in Note 5.1 may be applied only to mixed products which have been made from two or more basic textile materials.\n\n   The following are the basic textile materials:\n\n    - silk,\n\n    - wool,\n\n    - coarse animal hair,\n\n    - fine animal hair,\n\n    - horsehair,\n\n    - cotton,\n\n    - paper-making materials and paper,\n\n    - flax,\n\n    - true hemp,\n\n    - jute and other textile bast fibres,\n\n    - sisal and other textile fibres of the genus Agave,\n\n    - coconut, abaca, ramie and other vegetable textile fibres,\n\n    - synthetic man-made filaments,\n\n    - artificial man-made filaments,\n\n    - current-conducting filaments,\n\n    - synthetic man-made staple fibres of polypropylene,\n\n    - synthetic man-made staple fibres of polyester,\n\n    - synthetic man-made staple fibres of polyamide,\n\n    - synthetic man-made staple fibres of polyacrylonitrile,\n\n    - synthetic man-made staple fibres of polyimide,\n\n    - synthetic man-made staple fibres of polytetrafluoroethylene,\n\n    - synthetic man-made staple fibres of poly(phenylene sulphide),\n\n    - synthetic man-made staple fibres of poly(vinyl chloride),\n\n    - other synthetic man-made staple fibres,\n\n    - artificial man-made staple fibres of viscose,\n\n    - other artificial man-made staple fibres,\n\n    - yarn made of polyurethane segmented with flexible segments of polyether, whether or not gimped,\n\n    - yarn made of polyurethane segmented with flexible segments of polyester, whether or not gimped,\n\n    - products of heading 5605 (metallised yarn) incorporating strip consisting of a core of aluminium foil or of a core of plastic film whether or not coated with aluminium powder, of a width not exceeding 5 mm, sandwiched by means of a transparent or coloured adhesive between two layers of plastic film,\n\n    - other products of heading 5605.\n\n   Example:\n\n   A yarn, of heading 5205, made from cotton fibres of heading 5203 and synthetic staple fibres of heading 5506, is a mixed yarn. Therefore, non-originating synthetic staple fibres which do not satisfy the origin-rules (which require manufacture from chemical materials or textile pulp) may be used, provided that their total weight does not exceed 10 per cent of the weight of the yarn.\n\n   Example:\n\n   A woollen fabric, of heading 5112, made from woollen yarn of heading 5107 and synthetic yarn of staple fibres of heading 5509, is a mixed fabric. Therefore, synthetic yarn which does not satisfy the origin-rules (which require manufacture from chemical materials or textile pulp), or woollen yarn which does not satisfy the origin-rules (which require manufacture from natural fibres, not carded or combed or otherwise prepared for spinning), or a combination of the two, may be used, provided that their total weight does not exceed 10 per cent of the weight of the fabric.\n\n   Example:\n\n   Tufted textile fabric, of heading 5802, made from cotton yarn of heading 5205 and cotton fabric of heading 5210, is only a mixed product if the cotton fabric is itself a mixed fabric made from yarns classified in two separate headings, or if the cotton yarns used are themselves mixtures.\n\n   Example:\n\n   If the tufted textile fabric concerned had been made from cotton yarn of heading 5205 and synthetic fabric of heading 5407, then, obviously, the yarns used are two separate basic textile materials and the tufted textile fabric is, accordingly, a mixed product.\n\n3. In the case of products incorporating \"yarn made of polyurethane segmented with flexible segments of polyether, whether or not gimped\", this tolerance is 20 per cent in respect of this yarn.\n\n4. In the case of products incorporating \"strip consisting of a core of aluminium foil or of a core of plastic film whether or not coated with aluminium powder, of a width not exceeding 5 mm, sandwiched by means of a transparent or coloured adhesive between two layers of plastic film\", this tolerance is 30 per cent in respect of this strip.\n\n### Note 6:\n\n1. Where, in the list, reference is made to this Note, textile materials which do not satisfy the rule set out in the list in column 3 for the made-up product concerned, may be used, provided that they are classified in a heading other than that of the product and that their value does not exceed 8 per cent of the ex-works price of the product.\n\n2. Without prejudice to Note 6.3, materials which are not classified within Chapters 50 to 63 may be used freely in the manufacture of textile products, whether or not they contain textiles.\n\n   Example:\n\n   If a rule in the list provides that, for a particular textile item (such as trousers), yarn must be used, this does not prevent the use of metal items, such as buttons, because buttons are not classified within Chapters 50 to 63. For the same reason, it does not prevent the use of slide-fasteners, even though slide-fasteners normally contain textiles.\n\n3. Where a percentage-rule applies, the value of materials which are not classified within Chapters 50 to 63 must be taken into account when calculating the value of the non-originating materials incorporated.\n\n### Note 7:\n\n1. For the purposes of headings ex 2707, 2713 to 2715, ex 2901, ex 2902 and ex 3403, the \"specific processes\" are the following:\n\n    (a) vacuum-distillation;\n\n    (b) redistillation by a very thorough fractionation-process;\n\n    (c) cracking;\n\n    (d) reforming;\n\n    (e) extraction by means of selective solvents;\n\n    (f) the process comprising all of the following operations: processing with concentrated sulphuric acid, oleum or sulphuric anhydride; neutralisation with alkaline agents; and decolourisation and purification with naturally-active earth, activated earth, activated charcoal or bauxite;\n\n    (g) polymerisation;\n\n    (h) alkylation; and\n\n    (i) isomerisation.\n\n2. For the purposes of headings 2710, 2711 and 2712, the \"specific processes\" are the following:\n\n    (a) vacuum-distillation;\n\n    (b) redistillation by a very thorough fractionation-process;\n\n    (c) cracking;\n\n    (d) reforming;\n\n    (e) extraction by means of selective solvents;\n\n    (f) the process comprising all of the following operations: processing with concentrated sulphuric acid, oleum or sulphuric anhydride; neutralisation with alkaline agents; and decolourisation and purification with naturally-active earth, activated earth, activated charcoal or bauxite;\n\n    (g) polymerisation;\n\n    (h) alkylation;\n\n    (i) isomerisation;\n\n    (j) in respect of heavy oils of heading ex 2710 only, desulphurisation with hydrogen, resulting in a reduction of at least 85 per cent of the sulphur-content of the products processed (ASTM D 1266-59 T method);\n\n    (k) in respect of products of heading 2710 only, deparaffining by a process other than filtering;\n\n    (l) in respect of heavy oils of heading ex 2710 only, treatment with hydrogen, at a pressure of more than 20 bar and a temperature of more than 250 °C, with the use of a catalyst, other than to effect desulphurisation, when the hydrogen constitutes an active element in a chemical reaction. The further treatment, with hydrogen, of lubricating oils of heading ex 2710 (e.g. hydrofinishing or decolourisation), in order, more especially, to improve colour or stability shall not, however, be deemed to be a specific process;\n\n    (m) in respect of fuel oils of heading ex 2710 only, atmospheric distillation, on condition that less than 30 per cent of these products distils, by volume, including losses, at 300 °C, by the ASTM D 86 method;\n\n    (n) in respect of heavy oils other than gas oils and fuel oils of heading ex 2710 only, treatment by means of a high-frequency electrical brush-discharge; and\n\n    (o) in respect of crude products (other than petroleum jelly, ozokerite, lignite wax or peat wax, paraffin wax containing by weight less than 0.75 per cent of oil) of heading ex 2712 only, de-oiling by fractional crystallisation.\n\n3. For the purposes of headings ex 2707, 2713 to 2715, ex 2901, ex 2902 and ex 3403, simple operations, such as cleaning, decanting, desalting, water-separation, filtering, colouring, marking, obtaining a sulphur-content as a result of mixing products with different sulphur-contents, or any combination of these operations or like operations, do not confer origin.\n","cumulation_methods":{"bilateral":["GB","CO","EC","PE"],"extended":["EU","AD","SM","AG","BB","BS","BZ","DM","DO","GD","GY","JM","KN","LC","SR","TT","VC","MX","GT","HN","NI","SV","CR","PA","BR","VE","GF","BO","PY","UY","AR","CL"]},"proof_intro":null,"proof_codes":{},"show_proofs_for_geographical_areas":[]},"relationships":{"rules":{"data":[]},"links":{"data":[{"id":"1849b0369ec694973fed11bc9a2bd240","type":"rules_of_origin_link"},{"id":"7276cca307f31492ffa1c1c34517fb57","type":"rules_of_origin_link"}]},"proofs":{"data":[{"id":"657054c6ff9096e74c2a722f1ca82841","type":"rules_of_origin_proof"},{"id":"676d438e6d7cc1d817e8573f7e9d2856","type":"rules_of_origin_proof"}]},"articles":{"data":[{"id":"andean/cumulation-import","type":"rules_of_origin_article"},{"id":"andean/wholly-obtained","type":"rules_of_origin_article"},{"id":"andean/origin_processes","type":"rules_of_origin_article"},{"id":"andean/packaging","type":"rules_of_origin_article"},{"id":"andean/wholly-obtained-vessels","type":"rules_of_origin_article"},{"id":"andean/cumulation-export","type":"rules_of_origin_article"},{"id":"andean/sufficiently-worked","type":"rules_of_origin_article"},{"id":"andean/tolerances","type":"rules_of_origin_article"},{"id":"andean/sets","type":"rules_of_origin_article"},{"id":"andean/accessories","type":"rules_of_origin_article"},{"id":"andean/originating_import","type":"rules_of_origin_article"},{"id":"andean/direct-transport","type":"rules_of_origin_article"},{"id":"andean/wholly-obtained-verbatim","type":"rules_of_origin_article"},{"id":"andean/insufficient-processing","type":"rules_of_origin_article"},{"id":"andean/originating_export","type":"rules_of_origin_article"},{"id":"andean/neutral-elements","type":"rules_of_origin_article"},{"id":"andean/verification","type":"rules_of_origin_article"}]},"rule_sets":{"data":[{"id":"8ad42991a32a75a4024eda630b8aef61","type":"rules_of_origin_rule_set"}]},"origin_reference_document":{"data":{"id":"eab1ee7f91e6d4d822fd0439d265b14d","type":"rules_of_origin_origin_reference_document"}}}}],"included":[{"id":"1849b0369ec694973fed11bc9a2bd240","type":"rules_of_origin_link","attributes":{"text":"UK-Andean countries trade agreement","url":"https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/uk-andean-countries-trade-agreement","source":"scheme"}},{"id":"7276cca307f31492ffa1c1c34517fb57","type":"rules_of_origin_link","attributes":{"text":"Trade with the Andean countries","url":"https://www.gov.uk/guidance/summary-of-uk-andean-countries-trade-agreement","source":"scheme"}},{"id":"657054c6ff9096e74c2a722f1ca82841","type":"rules_of_origin_proof","attributes":{"summary":"EUR.1 movement certificate","subtext":"","url":null,"content":"Use form EUR.1 to claim preferential duty rates on goods exported to or imported from countries that have a preferential trading agreement with the European Community.\n\n- [Download a copy of the EUR.1 movement certificate](https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/eur1-and-eur-med-movement-certificate)\n- [How to complete the EUR.1 movement certificate](https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/eur1-and-eur-med-movement-certificate/how-to-complete-the-movement-certificate)\n\n#### Procedure for the Issuance of a Movement Certificate EUR.1\n\n1. A movement certificate EUR.1 shall be issued by the competent authorities or customs authorities of the exporting Party on application having been made in writing by the exporter or, under the exporter's responsibility, by his/her authorised representative.\n\n2. For the purposes of paragraph 1, the exporter or his/her authorised representative shall fill out both the movement certificate EUR.1 and the application form, specimens of which appear in Appendix 3. These forms shall be completed in Spanish or English and in accordance with the provisions of the domestic law of the exporting Party. If they are hand-written, they shall be completed in ink in printed characters. The description of the products must be given in the box reserved for this purpose without leaving any blank lines. Where the box is not completely filled, a horizontal line must be drawn below the last line of the description, the empty space being crossed through.\n\n3. The exporter applying for the issue of a movement certificate EUR.1 shall be prepared to submit at any time, at the request of the competent authorities or customs authorities of the exporting Party where the movement certificate EUR.1 is issued, all appropriate documents proving the originating status of the products concerned as well as the fulfilment of the other requirements of this Origin Reference Document.\n\n4. A movement certificate EUR.1 shall be issued by the competent authorities or customs authorities of a Member State of the European Union or of the signatory Andean Countries if the products concerned can be considered as products originating in the European Union or in the signatory Andean Countries and fulfil the other requirements of this Origin Reference Document.\n\n5. The competent authorities or customs authorities issuing movement certificates EUR.1 shall take any steps necessary to verify the originating status of the products and the fulfilment of the other requirements of this Origin Reference Document. For this purpose, such authorities shall have the right to call for any evidence and to carry out any inspection of the exporter's accounts or any other check considered appropriate. The said authorities shall also ensure that the forms referred to in paragraph 2 are duly completed. In particular, the competent authorities or customs authorities shall check whether the space reserved for the description of the products has been completed in such a manner as to exclude all possibility of fraudulent additions.\n\n6. The date of issue of the movement certificate EUR.1 shall be indicated in box 11 of the certificate.\n\n7. A movement certificate EUR.1 shall be issued by the competent authorities or customs authorities and made available to the exporter as soon as the actual exportation has been effected or ensured.\n\n\n#### Movement Certificate EUR.1 Issued Retrospectively\n\n1. Notwithstanding Article 16, paragraph 7, a movement certificate EUR.1 may exceptionally be issued after the exportation of the products to which it relates if:\n\n(a) a movement certificate was not issued at the time of exportation because of errors or involuntary omissions or special circumstances; or\n\n(b) it is demonstrated to the satisfaction of the competent authorities or customs authorities that a movement certificate EUR.1 was issued but was not accepted at importation for technical reasons.\n\n1. For the implementation of paragraph 1, the exporter shall indicate in his/her application the place and date of exportation of the products to which the movement certificate EUR.1 relates and state the reasons for his/her request.\n\n2. The competent authorities or customs authorities may issue a movement certificate EUR.1 retrospectively only after verifying that the information supplied in the exporter's application coincides with that in the corresponding file.\n\n3. Movement certificates EUR 1 issued retrospectively shall be endorsed with one of the following phrases:\n\n    ES ‘EXPEDIDO A POSTERIORI’\n\n    EN ‘ISSUED RETROSPECTIVELY’\n\n5. The endorsement referred to in paragraph 4 shall be inserted in the 'Remarks' box of the movement certificate EUR.1.\n\n\n#### Issuance of a Duplicate Movement Certificate EUR.1\n\n1. In the event of theft, loss or destruction of a movement certificate EUR.1, the exporter may apply to the competent authority or customs authority which issued such certificate for a duplicate made out on the basis of the export documents in their possession.\n\n2. The duplicate issued pursuant to paragraph 1 shall be endorsed with one of the following words:\n\n    ES ‘DUPLICADO’\n\n    EN ‘DUPLICATE’\n\n3. The endorsement referred to in paragraph 2 shall be inserted in the 'Remarks' box of the duplicate movement certificate EUR.1.\n\n4. The duplicate, which must bear the date of issue of the original movement certificate EUR.1 shall take effect as from that date.\n\n#### Issuance of Movement Certificates EUR.1 on the Basis of a Proof of Origin Previously Issued or Made Out\n\nWhen originating products are placed under the control of a customs authority in the UK, it shall be possible to replace the original proof of origin by one or more movement certificates EUR.1 for the purpose of sending all or some of these products elsewhere within the UK or the signatory Andean Countries. The replacement movement certificate(s) EUR.1 shall be issued by the competent authority or by the customs authority, in this last case, under whose control the products are placed.\n"}},{"id":"676d438e6d7cc1d817e8573f7e9d2856","type":"rules_of_origin_proof","attributes":{"summary":"Invoice declaration","subtext":"including UK Approved Exporter number for consignments with a value over £5400/6000 euros","url":null,"content":"An 'invoice declaration', given by the exporter on an invoice, a delivery note or any other commercial document describes the products concerned in sufficient detail to enable them to be identified.

An invoice declaration may be made out by the exporter when the products to which it relates are exported, or after exportation on condition that it is presented in the importing Party no longer than two years after the importation of the products to which it relates.\n\n#### Approved exporter\n\n1. The competent authorities or customs authorities of the exporting Party may authorise any exporter (hereinafter referred to as \"approved exporter\") who makes frequent shipments of products under the Agreement, to make out invoice declarations irrespective of the value of the products concerned. An exporter seeking such authorisation must offer to the satisfaction of the competent auth-orities or customs authorities all guarantees necessary to verify the originating status of the products as well as the fulfilment of the other requirements of this Origin Reference Document.\n\n2. The competent authorities or customs authorities may grant the status of approved exporter subject to any conditions which they consider appropriate.\n\n3. The competent authorities or customs authorities shall grant the approved exporter an authorisation number which shall appear on the invoice declaration.\n\n4. The competent authorities or customs authorities shall monitor the use of the authorisation by the approved exporter.\n\n5. The competent authorities or customs authorities may withdraw the auth-orisation at any time. Such authorities shall do so where the approved exporter no longer offers the guarantees referred to in paragraph 1, no longer fulfils the conditions referred to in paragraph 2 or otherwise makes an incorrect use of the authorisation.\n"}},{"id":"andean/cumulation-import","type":"rules_of_origin_article","attributes":{"article":"cumulation-import","content":"### Cumulation of origin\n\n1.

A proof of origin shall be valid for 12 months from the date a movement certificate EUR.1 is issued, or from the date an invoice declaration is made out in the exporting Party. Such proof of origin must be presented within the said period to the customs authorities of the importing Party, in accordance with its domestic law.\n\n2. Proofs of origin which are submitted to the customs authorities of the importing Party after the final date for presentation specified in paragraph 1 may be accepted for the purpose of applying preferential treatment, where the failure to submit these documents by the final date set is due to exceptional circumstances.\n\n3. In other cases of late presentation, the customs authorities of the importing Party may accept, in accordance with their domestic law, the proofs of origin where the products have been submitted before the said final date.\n\n4. For the purposes of applying paragraphs 2 and 3, if a proof of origin is not presented at the time of importation, the importer must declare to the custom authorities of the importing Party the intention of requesting preferential tariff treatment for the products concerned.\n\n\n\n## Article 23 - Submission of Proof of Origin\n\nProofs of origin shall be submitted to the customs authorities of the importing Party in accordance with the procedures applicable in that Party.

Products sent as small packages from private persons to private persons or forming part of travellers' personal luggage shall be admitted as originating products without requiring the submission of a proof of origin, provided that such products are not imported by way of trade, have been declared as meeting the requirements of this Origin Reference Document and there is no doubt as to the veracity of such a declaration. In the case of products sent by post, this declaration may be made on the customs declaration or on a sheet of paper annexed to that document.\n\n2. Imports which are occasional and consist solely of products for the personal use of the recipients or travellers or their families shall not be considered as imports by way of trade if it is evident from the nature and quantity of the products that no commercial purpose is in view.\n\n3. The total value of the products referred to in paragraphs 1 and 2 when imported into the UK shall not exceed €500 in the case of small packages or €1,200 in the case of products forming part of travellers' personal luggage;\n\n4. For the purposes of paragraph 3, in cases where the products are invoiced in a currency other than euro or USD, amounts in the national currencies of the UK equivalent to the amounts expressed in euro or US dollars shall be fixed in accordance with the current exchange rate applicable in the UK.\n\n\n\n## Article 26 - Supporting Documents\n\nThe documents referred to in Articles 16, paragraph 3 and 20 paragraph 3 used for the purpose of proving that products covered by a movement certificate EUR.1 or an invoice declaration can be considered as products originating in a Party and fulfil the other requirements of this Origin Reference Document, may consist, inter alia, of the following:\n\n- direct evidence of the processes carried out by the exporter or supplier to obtain the goods concerned, contained for example in their accounts or internal book-keeping;\n\n- documents proving the originating status of materials used, issued or made out in the United Kingdom or in the signatory Andean Countries, where these documents are used in accordance with their respective domestic law;\n\n- documents proving the working or processing of materials in the United Kingdom or in the signatory Andean Countries, issued or made out in the United Kingdom or in the signatory Andean Countries, where these documents are used in accordance with their respective domestic law; or\n\n- movement certificates EUR.1 or invoice declarations proving the originating status of materials used, issued or made out in a Party in accordance with this Origin Reference Document.\n\n\n\n## Article 27 - Preservation of Proof of Origin and Supporting Documents\n\n1.

The discovery of slight discrepancies between the statements made in the proof of origin and those made in the documents submitted to the customs office for the purpose of carrying out the formalities for importing the products, shall not ipso facto render the proof of origin null and void if it is duly established that this document does correspond to the products submitted.\n\n2. Obvious formal errors, such as typing errors, on a proof of origin should not cause this document to be rejected if these errors are not such as to create doubts concerning the correctness of the statements made in this document.\n\n\n\n## Article 29 - Amounts Expressed in Euro\n\n1. For the application of the provisions of Article 21, subparagraph 1(b) in cases where products are invoiced in a currency other than euro, amounts in the national currency of the UK equivalent to the amounts expressed in euro shall be fixed annually by the UK and submitted to the signatory Andean Countries.\n\n2. A consignment shall benefit from the provisions of Article 21 subparagraph 1(b) having as reference the currency in which the invoice is drawn up, according to the amount fixed by the UK.\n\n3. The amounts to be used in the national currency of the UK shall be the equivalent in that currency of the amounts expressed in euro as at the first working day of October. The UK shall notify the signatory Andean Countries of these amounts by 15 October and these amounts shall apply from 1 January the following year.\n\n4. The UK may round up or down the amount resulting from the conversion into its national currency of an amount expressed in euro. The rounded-off amount may not differ from the amount resulting from the conversion by more than five per cent. The UK may retain unchanged its national currency equivalent of an amount expressed in euro if, at the time of the annual adjustment provided   for in paragraph 3, the conversion of that amount, prior to any rounding off, results in an increase of less than 15 per cent in the national currency equivalent. The national currency equivalent may be retained unchanged if the conversion would result in a decrease in that equivalent value.\n\n\n\n{{ Articles 15 to 29 }}\n"}},{"id":"andean/packaging","type":"rules_of_origin_article","attributes":{"article":"packaging","content":"Where, under paragraph 5 of Part Two, Section 1, of the Tariff of the United Kingdom, packaging is included with the product for classification purposes, such packaging shall be included for the purposes of determining origin.\n\nWhen the products qualify as wholly obtained, the packaging shall not be taken into consideration for the purposes of determining origin\n\n{{ Article 8 }}\n"}},{"id":"andean/wholly-obtained-vessels","type":"rules_of_origin_article","attributes":{"article":"wholly-obtained-vessels","content":"For the UK, the terms \"their vessels\" and \"their factory ships\" in subparagraphs 1(e) and 1(f) shall apply only to vessels and factory ships which:\n\n1. are registered in the UK or in a signatory Andean Country;\n\n2. sail under the flag of the UK or of a signatory Andean Country; and\n3. meet the following conditions:\n    1. they are at least 50 percent owned by nationals of the UK, of a European Union Member State or of a signatory Andean Country;\n    2. they are owned by juridical persons:\n\n        - which have their head office and their main place of business in the UK, in a European Union Member State or in a signatory Andean Country; and\n\n        - which are at least 50 percent owned by nationals or public entities of the UK, of a European Union Member State or of a signatory Andean Country.\n\nNotwithstanding paragraph above, the terms 'their vessels' and 'their factory ships' shall also apply to vessels and factory ships that capture products of sea fishing within 200 nautical miles from the baselines of Peru and that comply with the following conditions:\n\n1. they are registered in the UK or in a signatory Andean Country;\n\n2. they sail under the flag of the UK, a European Union Member State or of a signatory Andean Country;\n\n3. they land their captures in Peru; and\n\n4. they are owned by juridical persons:\n\n    - which have their head office and their main place of business in a the UK, in a European Union Member State or in a signatory Andean Country, and\n\n    - who collect more than 50 percent of their total turnover in the UK, in a European Union Member State or in a signatory Andean Country\n"}},{"id":"andean/cumulation-export","type":"rules_of_origin_article","attributes":{"article":"cumulation-export","content":"### Cumulation of origin\n\n1.
