Tariff Treatment - Country of Origin - Canada - Israel Free Trade Agreement

To Whom Does This Apply?

Summary

The Customs Tariff Actestablishes thirteen separate tariff treatments for goods imported into Canada. Sections 50 through 52 of the Act provide the CIAT preferential rate of duty for originating goods imported into Canada from Israel or another CIFTA beneficiary country.  

Rules of origin are used to determine if goods qualify for a particular tariff treatment. Goods which are listed in the List of Tariff Provisions of the Act, and which originate in Israel or another CIFTA beneficiary are entitled to the CIAT preferred rate of duty.

The CIFTA Rules of Origin Regulations set out the conditions under which goods may qualify for the CIAT preferential tariff treatment. These regulations are currently set out in Customs Notice N-100, CIFTA Rules of Origin Regulations, dated January 20, 1997.
