INTEGRATED NEGOTIATING TEXT FOR THE
HARMONIZATION WORK PROGRAMME
Note bytheSecretariat
Addendum
1. Atitsmeeting on10May1996, theCommittee onRules ofOrigin (theCommittee) decided
toestablish anIntegrated Negotiating TextfortheHarmonization Work Programme (INT). Since the
firstdraftINTwascirculated indocument G/RO/W/13, thedocument hasbeenperiodically updated,
reflecting theprogress made byboththeCommittee andtheTechnical Committee onRules ofOrigin
inconnection withtheHarmonization Work Programme. Thelatest update wascirculated indocument
G/RO/W/13/Rev.3. However, despite thebenefit ofintegrating negotiating documents inasingle,
consolidated andcoherent text,concern hasbeenexpressed withregard tothevolume oftheINTwhich
hasalready reached 554pages. TheCommittee, therefore, atitsmeeting on15May1997, agreed
thatatthisstage, onlyadditions tothedrafttextofAppendix 2(product-specific rules oforigin) to
theHarmonized Rules ofOrigin would becirculated toMembers.
2. Theattached addendum tothedraft INT, prepared bytheChairperson together withthe
Secretariat, isthelatest update, andreflects onlywork donebytheTechnical Committee during its
Eighth Session from23Juneto4July1997inBrussels, i.e.product-specific rulesofChapters 85to90.G/RO/W/13/Rev.3/Add.2

[AdValorem Criterion (EC)
Origin criterion proposed
Manufacture where theincrease invalue acquired asaresult ofworking andprocessing and,ifapplicable, theincorporation ofparts originating inthecountry ofmanufacture represents
atleast X%oftheex-works price oftheproduct.
Method ofcalculating thepercentage
Forthepurpose ofcalculating thepercentage ofthevalue added requested
theterm “ex-works price”shall mean theprice paidfortheproduct obtained tothemanufacturer inwhose undertaking thelastworking orprocessing iscarried out;
theterm “value acquired asaresult ofworking andprocessing andincorporation ofparts originating inthecountry ofmanufacture ”shall mean theincrease invalue resulting from
theassembly itself, together withanypreparatory, finishing andchecking operations, andfrom theincorporation ofanyparts originating inthecountry where theoperations were
carried out,including profit andgeneral costs borne inthatcountry asaresult ofthese operations. (EC)G/RO/W/13/Rev.3/Add.2

Supplemental Rule: Forgoods which failtomeet this

bedetermined asfollows:
(1)Unless rule(2)applies thecountry oforigin willbe
thecountry inwhich chips, diceorwafers, classifiable
inone ofthesubheadings ofthegroup, were

thesubheadings within thegroup.
(2)Thecountry oforigin forprogrammed read only
memory integrated circuits produced byprogramming
unprogrammed “programmable read only memory ”
(PROM) willbethecountry oforigin inwhich the
programming wasaccomplished.
Integrated circuits areclassified inthese subheadings
whether intheform ofunmounted chips ordice. (US)
Additional remarks regarding theproposed rule for
subheadings 8542.12 through 8542.50: Integrated
circuits areclassified inthese subheadings whether in
theform ofunmounted chips ordice, wafers from
which chips ordicewillbecutprior tomounting, or
mounted chips ordice. Similarly, theclassification of
hybridintegratedcircuitsandelectronic
microassemblies isthesame whether onnotthey are
mounted. Theproposed ruleallows fororigin tobe
conferred when theunmounted devices aremounted,
reflecting thefactthatmounting results inasubstantial
transformation. Further, theproposed ruleallows for
origin tobeconferred when unprogrammed PROMs are

Those rules which refer toachange ofheading orsubheading shall notapply tochanges which result from disassembly.
Those rules which refer toachange ofheading orsubheading shall notapply tochanges which result solely from theapplication ofGeneral Rule ofInterpretation 2

Notwithstanding thechange ofclassification rules below, theassembly ofagood form acollection ofparts classified inthesame heading orsubheading astheassembled
good shallhaveorigin inthecountry where thegood isassembled, provided thatnone oftheunassembled components, ifseparately presented, would havebeen
classified inthesame heading orsubheading astheassembled good. (US)]
[1) Disassembling operations donotconstitute asubstantial transformation, although such operations satisfy thechange ofclassification rules setforth inthis
Chapter.
2) Assembling unassembled ordisassembled articles which areclassified intheheading orsubheading oftheassembled articles byvirtue oftheGIR2(a)constitutes
asubstantial transformation, although such operation does notsatisfy thechange ofclassification rules setforth inthisChapter. Inthiscase, however, none
ofthecomponents oftheunassembled ordisassembled articles, ifseparately presented, should beclassified under thesame heading orsubheading astheassembled

3) Incaseofpresenting complete orfinished articles, asunassembled bymerely collecting parts without anyfurther processing, thecollection ofparts cansatisfy
thechange oftheclassification rules setforth inthisChapter. Notwithstanding thesatisfaction oftherules, such operation does notconstitute asubstantial
transformation. (KOR)]
[AdValorem Criterion
Origin criterion proposed:
Manufacture where theincrease invalue acquired asaresult ofworking andprocessing and,ifapplicable, theincorporation ofparts originating inthecountry of
manufacture represents atleast X%oftheex-works price oftheproduct.
Method ofcalculating thepercentage:
Forthepurpose ofcalculating thepercentage ofthevalue added requested
theterm “ex-works price”shall mean theprice paidfortheproduct obtained tothemanufacture inwhose undertaking thelastworking orprocessing iscarried out;
theterm “value acquired asaresult ofworking andprocessing andincorporation ofparts originating inthecountry ofmanufacture ”shall mean theincrease invalue
resulting from theassembly itself, together withanypreparatory, finishing andchecking operations, andfrom theincorporation ofanyparts originating inthecountry
where theoperations were carried out,including profit andgeneral costs borne inthatcountry asaresult ofthese operations. (EC)]G/RO/W/13/Rev.3/Add.2

Disassembling operations donotconstitute asubstantial transformation, although such operations satisfy thechange ofclassification rules setforth inthisChapter.
Assembling unassembled ordisassembled articles which areclassified intheheading orsubheading oftheassembled articles byvirtue oftheGRI2(a)constitutes asubstantial

Incaseofpresenting complete orfinished articles, asunassembled bymerely collecting parts without anyfurther processing, thecollection ofparts cansatisfy thechange

Method ofcalculating thepercentage
Forthepurpose ofcalculating thepercentage ofthevalue added requested :
Theterm “ex-works price”shall mean theprice paidfortheproduct obtained tothemanufacturer inwhose undertaking thelastworking orprocessing iscarried out;
Theterm“value acquired asaresult ofworking andprocessing andincorporation ofparts originating inthecountry ofmanufacture ”shallmean theincrease invalue resulting
from theassembly itself, together withanypreparatory, finishing andchecking operations, andfrom theincorporation ofanyparts originating inthecountry where theoperations
were carried out,including profit andgeneral costs borne inthatcountry asaresult ofthese operations. (EC)G/RO/W/13/Rev.3/Add.2
