Overview

Certificate of origin for Cyprus: what and why

The certificate of origin (COO) states the country where your goods were produced. Customs in the importing country uses it to apply duties, check restrictions and clear the cargo. The non-preferential COO is the version that is usually legalised. Non-preferential certificates of origin are issued by authorised agencies, including Indian chambers of commerce, through the DGFT's online certificate of origin platform.

European buyers rarely need legalised shipping documents for routine trade, but authorities and banks may ask for them in tenders, disputes or special import regimes.

Companies dealing with Cyprus are most often asked for a legalised certificate of origin during customs clearance at the port of entry, as well as for payment under a letter of credit and import duty assessment.

A certificate of origin issued in India is notarised, attested by an Indian Chamber of Commerce and then apostilled by the MEA. Cyprus accepts the apostille, so no embassy step is needed.

How to get a certificate of origin apostilled for Cyprus

  1. Send us a scan first

    WhatsApp a scan of the certificate of origin and tell us who in Cyprus will receive it. We check it and reply with the steps, timeline and price.

  2. Notary in India

    The signatory's signature or the certified copy is notarised in India, as the chamber and MEA require for this document.

  3. Indian Chamber of Commerce

    The certificate of origin is attested by an Indian Chamber of Commerce, which checks your company's details and the signatory before stamping it.

  4. MEA apostille

    The MEA adds its apostille, which is the final step for a Hague Convention country.

  5. Tracked return

    We courier the legalised document back by Blue Dart or another tracked courier, or you collect it from our Delhi office.

What to send us

  • Request letter on company letterhead
  • Bill of lading or airway bill copy
  • Signed original certificate of origin
  • Certified Greek translation, if the authority in Cyprus asks (we arrange it)
  • Matching commercial invoice and packing list

Avoid rejection

  • Legalise the COO and the invoice together; embassies compare them line by line.
  • Preferential COOs under trade agreements usually do not need embassy legalisation; check your buyer's instruction first.
  • Consignee name, invoice number and quantities must be identical on every document.
  • Do not get the document stamped by an embassy; an apostille country only needs the MEA apostille.
