Is it obligatory to print out the Certificate of Origin with a color printer?
The official seal of KCCI and the signature of the officer in charge are printed in color, which is consistent with the certificates of other countries that have color stamps of the official seal of the issuance agency and the signature of the officer in charge. Therefore the Certificate of Origin must be printed out in color in order to avoid any possible suspicion of its authenticity. If a black-and-white copy of the Certificate of Origin is sent to another country’s customs office, it may be regarded as a duplicate, which may make customs clearance difficult.
