A Certificate of Origin (COO) is a document that is required by certain foreign countries for tariff purposes, certifying the country of origin of specified goods. Certificates of Origin for exports are often required by the customs authority of the destination country for the levying of appropriate tariffs. Those authorities usually require a certificate sealed by an "appropriate authority," which includes chambers of commerce. The Greater Lafayette Chamber of Commerce's will seal Certificates of Origin for products exported from the United States.

The walk-in service for Certificate of Origin sealing is available for both Chamber of Commerce members and future members at the Greater Lafayette Chamber of Commerce during normal business hours, 8:30 a.m. – 5:00 p.m., Monday-Friday, excluding holidays. Certificate of Origin sealing is free of charge.

For more details, please visit the Chamber lobby or contact Information Coordinator, Courtney Thomas, at 337-233-2705.
