    Origin irregularities

    The Origin Irregularity Typology Study was the first step taken in relation to origin irregularities under the Revenue Package.

    The second step is to provide advice to Customs authorities on ways to confront origin irregularities in practice.

    To this end the Secretariat, in cooperation with a number of Member Customs administrations, has developed the Guide to Counter Origin Irregularities.
