Made in EU Compliance Audit and Reporting

Service Details

EU rules of origin may appear simple on paper; however, field implementation creates a different technical challenge at every stage of the production line. The audit team visits the facility; all production stages from raw material entry to finished product shipment are mapped against HS code transformation criteria. Input-output tables, supplier declarations, production records, and value-added calculations are evaluated from the inspection perspective of EU customs administrations. The critical point is this: for an EUR.1 or REX declaration to be valid, it is necessary to trace not only the final product but the origin chain of every single component that constitutes it. This audit accomplishes precisely that. The resulting deliverables include a gap analysis, an improvement plan, and a compliance file prepared in the format that EU customs would require.

Highlights

• HS tariff transformation analysis — it is determined whether the origin rule genuinely changes or only packaging is performed
• EUR.1 / REX eligibility map — which product can be exported with which document is clearly identified
• Process design for supplier declarations — a systematic structure to obtain proper sub-supplier declarations
