2. For greater certainty:

• (a) a remanufactured good is originating only if it satisfies the applicable requirements of Article 4.2 (Originating Goods); and
• (b) a recovered material that is not used or incorporated in the production of a remanufactured good is originating only if it satisfies the applicable requirements of Article 4.2 (Originating Goods).

Article 4.5: Regional Value Content

1. Except as provided in paragraph 6, each Party shall provide that the regional value content of a good shall be calculated, at the choice of the importer, exporter, or producer of the good, on the basis of either the transaction value method set out in paragraph 2 or the net cost method set out in paragraph 3.

2. Each Party shall provide that an importer, exporter, or producer may calculate the regional value content of a good on the basis of the following transaction value method:

RVC = (TV-VNM)/TV x 100

where

RVC is the regional value content, expressed as a percentage;

TV is the transaction value of the good, adjusted to exclude any costs incurred in the international shipment of the good; and

VNM is the value of non-originating materials including materials of undetermined origin used by the producer in the production of the good.

3. Each Party shall provide that an importer, exporter, or producer may calculate the regional value content of a good on the basis of the following net cost method:

RVC = (NC-VNM)/NC x 100

where

RVC is the regional value content, expressed as a percentage;

NC is the net cost of the good; and

VNM is the value of non-originating materials including materials of undetermined origin used by the producer in the production of the good.

4. Each Party shall provide that the value of non-originating materials used by the producer in the production of a good shall not, for the purposes of calculating the regional value content of the good under paragraph 2 or 3, include the value of non-originating materials used to produce originating materials that are subsequently used in the production of the good.

5. Each Party shall provide that if a non-originating material is used in the production of a good, the following may be counted as originating content for the purpose of determining whether the good meets a regional value content requirement:

• (a) the value of processing of the non-originating materials undertaken in the territory of one or more of the Parties; and
• (b) the value of any originating material used in the production of the non-originating material undertaken in the territory of one or more of the Parties.

6. Each Party shall provide that an importer, exporter, or producer shall calculate the regional value content of a good solely on the basis of the net cost method set out in paragraph 3 if the rule under the Annex 4-B (Product-Specific Rules of Origin) does not provide a rule based on the transaction value method.

7. If an importer, exporter, or producer of a good calculates the regional value content of the good on the basis of the transaction value method set out in paragraph 2 and a Party subsequently notifies the importer, exporter, or producer, during the course of a verification pursuant to Chapter 5 (Origin Procedures) that the transaction value of the good, or the value of material used in the production of the good, is required to be adjusted or is unacceptable under Article 1 of the Customs Valuation Agreement, the exporter, producer, or importer may then also calculate the regional value content of the good on the basis of the net cost method set out in paragraph 3.

8. For the purposes of calculating the net cost of a good under paragraph 3, the producer of the good may:

• (a) calculate the total cost incurred with respect to all goods produced by that producer, subtract any sales promotion, marketing, and after-sales service costs, royalties, shipping and packing costs, and non-allowable interest costs that are included in the total cost of all those goods, and then reasonably allocate the resulting net cost of those goods to the good;
• (b) calculate the total cost incurred with respect to all goods produced by that producer, reasonably allocate the total cost to the good, and then subtract any sales promotion, marketing, and after-sales service costs, royalties, shipping and packing costs, and non-allowable interest costs that are included in the portion of the total cost allocated to the good; or
• (c) reasonably allocate each cost that forms part of the total cost incurred with respect to the good so that the aggregate of these costs does not include any sales promotion, marketing, and after-sales service costs, royalties, shipping and packing costs, and non-allowable interest costs,

provided that the allocation of all those costs is consistent with the provisions regarding the reasonable allocation of costs set out in the Uniform Regulations.

Article 4.6: Value of Materials Used in Production

Each Party shall provide that, for the purposes of this Chapter, the value of a material is:

• (a) for a material imported by the producer of the good, the transaction value of the material at the time of importation, including the costs incurred in the international shipment of the material;
• (b) for a material acquired in the territory where the good is produced:
  • (i) the price paid or payable by the producer in the Party where the producer is located,
  • (ii) the value as determined for an imported material in subparagraph (a), or
  • (iii) the earliest ascertainable price paid or payable in the territory of the Party; or
• (c) for a material that is self-produced:
  • (i) all the costs incurred in the production of the material, which includes general expenses, and
  • (ii) an amount equivalent to the profit added in the normal course of trade, or equal to the profit that is usually reflected in the sale of goods of the same class or kind as the self-produced material that is being valued.

Article 4.7: Further Adjustments to the Value of Materials

1. Each Party shall provide that for a non-originating material or material of undetermined origin, the following expenses may be deducted from the value of the material:

• (a) the costs of freight, insurance, packing, and all other costs incurred in transporting the material to the location of the producer of the good;
• (b) duties, taxes, and customs brokerage fees on the material paid in the territory of one or more of the Parties, other than duties and taxes that are waived, refunded, refundable, or otherwise recoverable, which include credit against duty or tax paid or payable; and
• (c) the cost of waste and spoilage resulting from the use of the material in the production of the good, less the value of reusable scrap or by-product.

2. If the cost or expense listed in paragraph 1 is unknown or documentary evidence of the amount of the adjustment is not available, then no adjustment is allowed for that particular cost.

Article 4.8: Intermediate Materials

Each Party shall provide that any self-produced material that is used in the production of a good may be designated by the producer of the good as an intermediate material for the purpose of calculating the regional value content of the good under paragraph 2 or 3 of Article 4.5 (Regional Value Content), provided that if the intermediate material is subject to a regional value content requirement, no other self-produced material subject to a regional value content requirement used in the production of that intermediate material may itself be designated by the producer as an intermediate material.

Article 4.12: De Minimis

1. Except as provided in Annex 4-A (Exceptions to Article 4.12 (De Minimis)), each Party shall provide that a good is an originating good if the value of all non-originating materials used in the production of the good that do not undergo an applicable change in tariff classification set out in Annex 4-B (Product- Specific Rules of Origin) is not more than 10 percent:

• (a) of the transaction value of the good adjusted to exclude any costs incurred in the international shipment of the good; or
• (b) of the total cost of the good,
  
  provided that the good satisfies all other applicable requirements of this Chapter.

2. If a good described in paragraph 1 is also subject to a regional value content requirement, the value of those non-originating materials shall be included in the value of non-originating materials for the applicable regional value content requirement.

3. A good that is otherwise subject to a regional value content requirement shall not be required to satisfy the requirement if the value of all non-originating materials used in the production of the good is not more than 10 percent of the transaction value of the good, adjusted to exclude any costs incurred in the international shipment of the good, or the total cost of the good, provided that the good satisfies all other applicable requirements of this Chapter.

Chapter 27 Mineral Fuels, Mineral Oils and Products of Their Distillation; Bituminous Substances; Mineral Waxes

Note 1: Notwithstanding the applicable product-specific rules of origin, a good of chapter 27 that is the product of a chemical reaction is an originating good if the chemical reaction occurred in the territory of one or more of the Parties.

For the purposes of this rule, a “chemical reaction” is a process (including a biochemical process) that results in a molecule with a new structure by breaking intramolecular bonds and by forming new intramolecular bonds, or by altering the spatial arrangement of atoms in a molecule.

The following are not chemical reactions:

• (a) dissolving in water or other solvents;
• (b) the elimination of solvents, including solvent water; or
• (c) the addition or elimination of water of crystallisation.

Note 2: For the purposes of heading 27.10, the following processes confer origin:

• (a) Atmospheric distillation: A separation process in which petroleum oils are converted, in a distillation tower, into fractions according to boiling point and the vapor then condensed into different liquefied fractions. Liquefied petroleum gas, naphtha, gasoline, kerosene, diesel/heating oil, light gas oils, and lubricating oil are produced from petroleum distillation;
• (b) Vacuum distillation: Distillation at a pressure below atmospheric but not so low that it would be classed as molecular distillation. Vacuum distillation is useful for distilling high-boiling and heat-sensitive materials such as heavy distillates in petroleum oils to produce light to heavy vacuum gas oils and residuum. In some refineries gas oils may be further processed into lubricating oils;
• (c) Catalytic hydroprocessing: The cracking or treating of petroleum oils with hydrogen at high temperature and under pressure, in the presence of special catalysts. Catalytic hydroprocessing includes hydrocracking and hydrotreating;
• (d) Reforming (catalytic reforming): The rearrangement of molecules in a naphtha boiling range material to form higher octane aromatics (i.e., improved antiknock quality at the expense of gasoline yield). A main product is catalytic reformate, a blend component for gasoline. Hydrogen is another by-product;
• (e) Alkylation: A process whereby a high-octane blending component for gasolines is derived from catalytic combination of an isoparaffin and an olefin;
• (f) Cracking: A refining process involving decomposition and molecular recombination of organic compounds, especially hydrocarbons obtained by means of heat, to form molecules suitable for motor fuels, monomers, petrochemicals, etc.;
  • (i) Thermal cracking: Exposes the distillate to temperatures of approximately 540-650C (1000-1200F) for varying periods of time. Process produces modest yields of gasoline and higher yields of residual products for fuel oil blending, or
  • (ii) Catalytic cracking: Hydrocarbon vapors are passed at approximately 400C (750F) over a metallic catalyst (e.g., silica-alumina or platinum); the complex recombinations (alkylation, polymerization, isomerization, etc.) occur within seconds to yield high-octane gasoline. Process yields less residual oils and light gases than thermal cracking;
• (g) Coking: A thermal cracking process for the conversion of heavy low grade products, such as reduced crude, straight run pitch, cracked tars, and shale oil into solid coke (carbon) and lower boiling hydrocarbon products which are suitable as feed for other refinery units for conversion into lighter products; and
• (h) Isomerization: The refinery process of converting petroleum compounds into their isomers.

Note 3: For the purposes of heading 27.10, “direct blending” is a refinery process whereby various petroleum streams from processing units and petroleum components from holding/storage tanks combine to create a finished product, with pre-determined parameters, classified under heading 27.10, provided that the non-originating material constitutes no more than 25 percent by volume of the good.

Note 4: For the purposes of determining whether or not a good of heading 27.09 is an originating good, the origin of diluent of heading 27.09 or 27.10 that is used to facilitate the transportation between Parties of crude petroleum oils and crude oils obtained from bituminous minerals of heading 27.09 is disregarded, provided that the diluent constitutes no more than 40 percent by volume of the good.
