Rules of origin working group established for coordination, interpretation, information sharing, and annual reporting under trade agreement framework.

The Rules establish a Working Group on Rules of Origin composed of government representatives from each Party responsible for origin matters. The group cooperates in the administration and interpretation of the rules, exchanges information, maintains member contact details, considers matters referred by the Subcommittee on Trade in Goods or the Joint Committee, and addresses any other matters it mutually agrees upon. It must meet within twelve months of the Agreement entering into force and thereafter at least once annually, and it reports to the Subcommittee on Trade in Goods.
