제목 : [FTA HONG] Summary of the Korea-Peru FTA (FTA utilization rate, FTA utilization by industry, and summary of highlights)

 



The Korea-Peru FTA agreement, which is expected to play an important role as a bridgehead into the resource-rich and geopolitically important Latin American market, came into effect on August 1, 2011.

 

In the case of the Korea-Peru FTA, the method of issuing certificates of origin changed in 2016, the fifth year of the agreement, from allowing both Authority - Issued and Self - Issued to allowing only Self Issued.

 

Accordingly, the Korea-Peru FTA Certificate of Origin should not use APPENDIX 4A-1 CERTIFICATE OF ORIGIN or APPENDIX 4A-2 ORIGIN DECLARATION, but should use ANNEX 4B CERTIFICATE OF ORIGIN.

 

CHAPTER FOUR (ORIGIN PROCEDURES)

 

ARTICLE 4.1: CERTIFICATE OF ORIGIN

(b) be completed in English in conformity with the specimen and the instructions contained therein as set out in Annex 4B, which may be amended by agreement between the Parties.

 

ARTICLE 4.13: IMPLEMENTATION

1. During the period of five years following the date of entry into force of this

Agreement, Annex 4A shall apply in lieu of Articles 4.1 and 4.6.
