My company performs quarterly audits on NAFTA entries and in doing so, I have discovered two items that have been imported and for which NAFTA benefits have been claimed that were not included in the itemized listing that the Vendor/Manufacturer completed for the NAFTA certificate. If I ask the vendor to update the NAFTA cert, […]
We have a customer that is asking for a “letter of non-eligibility” for a product that does not qualify for NAFTA. Is there a “standard” form available for this or does anyone have a template they would be willing to share. This is the first we’ve had a request like this.

Is a “blanket” EUR.1 Movement Certificate allowable under the European Union-Mexico Free Trade Agreement (EUMFTA) for entry into Mexico?

Situation: We have components with origins of China, Japan, US and Mexico. When assembled we calculate the RVC and it meets the NAFTA RVC percentage.

My company makes numerous low value (less than $1,000) shipments to Mexico that qualify for NAFTA benefits. I have been told that we can either provide a separate NAFTA document or a statement on our commercial invoice about the NAFTA qualifying products. Does anyone have experience using the statement in place of the separate NAFTA […]
Question: We ship US origin block glass (subheading 7005) to our sister plant in Canada who manufactures the glass into finished, laminated windshields (7007.21.1010).

Does the EXPORTER in Block 1 of a NAFTA Certificate (CF434) need to match the name of the company that signs the certificate? Since I am lazy (I am ex-Customs) I want to ask our supplier to put our name in the EXPORTER field so we can use their NAFTA to supply to our Canadian/Mexican […]
