De minimis rule preserves originating status when non originating inputs remain below a small threshold, enabling preferential origin. De Minimis provisions allow a good that fails a change in tariff classification to be considered originating if non originating inputs are limited: for goods outside chapters 50-63 the value of non originating materials must not exceed ten per cent of the FOB value; for goods within chapters 50-63 the total weight of non originating materials must not exceed ten per cent of the good's total weight. If such a good is also subject to a qualifying value content requirement, those non originating materials are included in the calculation for that requirement.
