Dear Sir/ Madam,
This is regarding self-certification of Goods for European Union Generalised System of Preferences (EU-GSP).
Kindly note that O/o DGFT has issued Public Notice No. 51/ 2015-2020 dated 30.12.2016 regarding insertion of a new sub para (c) under Para 2.104 Generalised System of Preferences (GSP) as under:
-
(c) The European Union (EU) has introduced a self-certification scheme for certifying the rules of origin under GSP from 1.1.2017 onwards. Under the Registered Exporter System (REX) being introduced from 1.1.2017, exporters with a REX number will be able to self-certify the Statement on Origin of their goods being exported to EU under the GSP Scheme. The registration on REX is without any fee or charges and this system would eventually phase out the current system of issuance of Certificates of Origin (Form-A) by the Competent Authorities listed in Appendix-2C of FTP (2015-20) by 1.1.2018 (one year transition period). The details of the scheme are at Annex 1 to Appendix 2C of the Foreign Trade Policy (2015- 20).
As an effect of this Public Notice, Registered Exporters System (REX) as of 1 January 2017 for the EU Generalised System of Preferences (GSP) is notified.
For further details, members may download the Public Notice No. 51/ 2015-2020 dated 30.12.2016 from below link:

Thanking You,
Yours faithfully,
