In international trade, a Certificate of Origin (CO) is a key document for the verification of the origin of goods being exported. The origin of imported goods is examined by almost every country in the world to determine tariff treatments or in other cases, to see if the goods can be legally imported. The CO can be required by the customs administrator, importers, freight forwarders and even banks for approving letters of credit.
