Customs & Foreign Trade
Certificate of Origin
Capture origin, exporter and goods data from certificates of origin and preferential-origin documents.
The Challenge
Certificates follow chamber-of-commerce templates that vary by country, carry stamps, seals and signatures, and reference goods only loosely. Linking them to the matching shipment and invoice is the hard part.
Industries
Export manufacturing, trade, customs brokerage, logistics.
Who Uses It
Trade-compliance teams, export documentation, customs agents.
