Behind every trusted trade document is a global network of experts.
This week, 60+ origin experts from 42 countries united to address key challenges in strengthening origin certification and helping businesses benefit from FTAs.
➡️ Key highlights from the room:
✔️ The Hospodářská komora České republiky and the Ekonomike e Kosovës joined the ICC WCF Certificate of Origin Accreditation Chain, bringing the network to 42 countries under the trusted ICC WCF CO Label.
✔️ Progress continues on an ICC framework for non-preferential rules of origin, while access to digital services is expanding to make these tools more readily available to chambers worldwide.
✔️ We also heard three excellent “show-and-tell” sessions from chambers sharing practical business models and operational experience: Business West , CNI - Confederação Nacional da Indústria , and the Gospodarska zbornica Slovenije.
Rules of origin are complex.
This is where chambers come in.
They play a critical role in building trust, ensuring compliance, and facilitating trade.
With strong certification systems in place, businesses can trade with greater confidence and keep goods moving across borders.
