Customs and Origin Clause Samples

The "Customs and Origin" clause defines the responsibilities and requirements related to the classification, documentation, and declaration of goods for customs purposes, as well as the determination of their country of origin. In practice, this clause typically requires the seller to provide accurate information and supporting documents, such as certificates of origin or tariff codes, to facilitate the import or export of goods and ensure compliance with relevant customs regulations. Its core function is to allocate responsibility for customs compliance and origin declarations, thereby reducing the risk of delays, fines, or disputes during cross-border transactions.
Customs and Origin. For customs purposes, Seller will prepare and expedite any and all required forms and submit them to Buyer within five calendar days of Seller’s receipt of the forms. Seller will attach to the shipping documents a commercial invoice in duplicate. Should additional documents be required in order to provide proof of the intended use of the Goods delivered or for any other purpose, Seller must timely procure all of the required documents for Buyer and make them available to Buyer at Seller’s sole cost and expense. Seller is bound by and warrants the accuracy of all invoices, documents, and information furnished to Buyer by Seller or its agent for export, entry, or other purposes.
