Fta c/o意思

"FTA C/O" is a term commonly used in shipping and logistics, where "FTA" stands for "Free Trade Agreement" and "C/O" stands for "Certificate of Origin."

A Free Trade Agreement (FTA) is a trade pact between two or more countries aiming to reduce or eliminate barriers to trade and to facilitate the smooth flow of goods between the signatory countries. FTAs often include provisions for reducing or eliminating tariffs (import taxes) on goods traded between the member countries.

A Certificate of Origin (C/O) is a document that certifies the origin of goods. It is required for international shipments to ensure that the proper import duties and taxes are applied based on the country of origin of the goods. For goods traded under an FTA, a Certificate of Origin is crucial to claim the preferential tariff treatment that the FTA provides.

So, "FTA C/O" refers to the Certificate of Origin that is issued to support the preferential tariff treatment under a Free Trade Agreement. This certificate is typically issued by a government agency or a chamber of commerce and must be presented when importing goods to prove that they qualify for the reduced or eliminated tariffs as per the FTA.
