Certificates of Origin (also known as a Declaration of Origin) are international trade documents that show the origin of exported goods. They are completed by exporters and are certified by a Chamber of Commerce. There are two types of Certificates of Origin, United Kingdom Certificates of Origin which are accepted by most countries around the world and Arab-British Certificate of Origin which are used when dealing with Arab League nations.Certificate of Origin | Birmingham Chamber of Commerce | Greater Birmingham Chambers of Commerce

When dealing with certain areas of the world, it is often a requirement to get documents legalised by the relevant Embassies or endorsed by the UK Foreign and Commonwealth Office. Acting as an agent of the Arab British Chamber of Commerce, we can arrange for these to be done for you, and with our connections to consular agencies, we can get documents dealt with for any country that has its own specific requirements.

An ATA Carnet is an international Customs document that operates like a passport for your goods. It allows the temporary importation of goods into countries that are part of the ATA Carnet system and avoids you having to pay unnecessary taxes or duties. ATA Carnets cover all goods that are leaving the UK and returning within a 12-month period. They do not cover disposable goods that will be used while out of the country or items that will not be returning to the UK.ATA Carnet UK | Apply Online with the Chambers of Commerce | Greater Birmingham Chambers of Commerce
