Long-term supplier's declaration / Origin of goods

Dear customers,
When issuing supplier’s declarations and long-term supplier’s declarations, we as an importer, processor and manufacturer of products from vegetable oils and fats are bound by legal requirements – in particular the regulations (EU) 2015/2446 UCC-DA and (EU) 2015/2447 UCC-IA as well as by the provisions of numerous EU preferential customs agreements.
For products containing sunflower oil or rapeseed oil, we regret not being able to issue a supplier’s declaration or long-term supplier’s declaration at present unless the product you ordered can be attributed to the customs tariff’s HS code 1518. This shall apply both to pure products and products containing a share of sunflower oil or rapeseed oil.
As far as products from tropical oils and fats such as coconut oil, palm oil or palm kernel oil are concerned, we are only allowed to issue a supplier’s declaration or long-term supplier’s declaration if the product you purchased from us can be attributed to one of the following customs tariff numbers (HS codes):

• 1516 (among others single-origin transesterified products or single-origin hydrogenated products)
• 1517 (among others mixtures)

In all other cases we are legally not allowed to issue a supplier’s declaration or long-term supplier’s declaration. We ask for your understanding that in such cases we shall also not issue a supplier’s declaration or long-term supplier’s declaration for goods without preferential origin (i.e. negative pledges).

With regard to an inquiry on the origin of goods in terms of foreign trade legislation or commercial law (certificate of origin as a certificate under public law, issued by the competent Chamber of Industry and Commerce), please contact our Customer Service Team, e-mail:
