OriginDocsProOriginDocsPro is a documentation tool. It does not certify origin or guarantee preferential treatment. Exporters bear full responsibility for their declarations.
Self-certification shifts the burden to you
Under modern free trade agreements, the responsibility for declaring preferential origin falls on the exporter — not customs, not a chamber of commerce, and not a third-party certifier.
This means you must be able to prove, at any time during the retention period, that your origin claim was accurate when it was made. Post-clearance audits can occur years after a shipment was cleared.
For most businesses, the evidence is fragmented: spreadsheets, emails, supplier declarations filed in different systems or not filed at all. When an audit arrives, the cost of reconstructing this trail is significant — and the penalties for failure are real.
What OriginDocsPro provides
Statement Preparation
Generate properly formatted Statements of Origin linked to your products, HS codes, and shipment data. Each statement references the underlying origin decision.
Decision Documentation
Record how and why a product qualifies under a specific rule of origin. Capture the rule applied, the evidence reviewed, and the outcome — creating an auditable decision trail.
Evidence Retention
Store supporting documents — supplier declarations, invoices, production records — alongside the decisions they support. Retained for the full post-clearance audit window.
Verification
Each statement includes a QR code linking to a verification endpoint. Customs or trading partners can confirm a statement was issued and check its current status — without accessing commercial data.
