USMCA Certificate
Overview
The new United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) allows importers to complete a certification of
origin to include nine required data elements as well as a certification statement. These data elements do not
need to follow a prescribed format. The USMCA also allows certification of origin to be completed and signed
with an electronic or digital signature.
These new requirements mark a change from the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), which
required a uniform Certificate of Origin (CBP Form 434) that could only be signed by the exporter/producer of
the goods. In addition, NAFTA certificates required a wet signature and did not allow electronic signature.
