The NCE is a designated Chamber by the state authorities to issue Certificates of Origin and related documents to exporters.The service is provided to both member exporters as well as non-members of the Chamber. However, members could enjoy the service at a concessionary rate. COs are issued both manually and online depending on the requirements of exporters.
The NCE has introduced a fully and semi authenticated system which will issue digitally signed country of origin documents (COs), which will speed up the process and greatly reduce the time taken to manually process COs. The new procedure will also mean that the number times that an exporter has to visit the Chamber will be only once.
The Online service is useful to those who require a number of COs at a time without delays. The service is provided;
- On a semi-automated basis where application could be made online and processed documents collected manually.
- A customized fully automated service where both submission and issue and receive of documents is online
