I am a registered manufacturer with Singapore Customs and have exported products under other Free Trade Agreements. Can my product be automatically considered as an originating good under the RCEP?
Each Free Trade Agreement (FTA) has its own unique origin qualifying criteria. Your registration with Singapore Customs as a manufacturer does not automatically qualify your good as originating under the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP). You should ensure that your product meets the qualifying criteria as set out in the RCEP Rules of Origin Chapter Protocol and its annexes to be considered for preferential tariff treatment when imported into a Party in RCEP.
