What is a NAFTA Statement?
Generally speaking, commercial goods exported from the U.S. to Canada or Mexico that are claiming reduced NAFTA duties are required to have a formal certificate of origin available at the time of entry into either country. If the exported shipment is under $1,000, no formal certificate of origin is required; however, the invoice or document accompanying the shipment needs to contain a signed statement. Non-Commercial importations do not require the Formal Certificate of Origin or written/signed statement, regardless of value.
