EXPORT DOCUMENTATION
The GNCCI is responsible for issuing
documentary evidence of origin for goods exported from Ghana and certifies a variety
of other export documentations, e.g. Packing Lists, Commercial Invoices, etc.
as required by overseas buyers and foreign customs authorities. The Chamber
issues Certificate of Origin according to the International
Certificate of Origin guidelines prepared by World Chambers Federation, International Chamber of Commerce’s specialized division for Chamber
Affairs.
The purpose of the Certificate of Origin is to
facilitate international trade and proves
that the product exported is manufactured and produced in Ghana. It is required by certain countries in order to
determine whether duties or tariffs should be assessed on the products being imported. The product can enter
into those markets either duty free or
under concessionary duty rates.
The Chamber currently issues
five (5) types of certificates; EUR, GSP, Imperial Preference, ECOWAS and Non Preferential Certificate
