This list contains the 3-digit codes to be used to indicate the preferential origin status of the goods in Data Element 4/17.

These codes should be completed in Data Element 4/17 where the goods are entering a free circulation regime (including end-use), or where a claim to Tariff preference or quotas is established upon entry to the customs procedure.

The 3-digit code indicates whether a reduction in, or relief from, import duty applies. This includes specific duties and other equivalent charges applicable to CAP goods.

A definitive list of the combinations of these digits and their usage is provided in the table.
