Cumulative rules of origin require value addition in the exporter's territory and combined thresholds for preferential treatment.

Where a product satisfying rule 5(b) is exported by one Contracting Party and uses materials originating in the other Contracting Party, the exporting party must effect value addition amounting to not less than twenty five per cent of the product's f.o.b. value, subject to the aggregate value addition across both Contracting Parties being not less than thirty five per cent of that f.o.b. value; only inputs that have acquired originating status in one Contracting Party may be counted for cumulation.
