Origin Requirements
 Origin requirements are defined in the tender dossier of EuropeAid tenders.
(typically article 10 in the tender special conditions) These requirements can differ per
tender.
 Most common requirements is: “All goods purchased must originate in a Member
State of the European Union (EU Origin), or a country covered by one of the
EuropeAid Programs (IPA / ENPI / EDF / DCI)
 Rarely EU Origin is deferred, but it happens in some cases
 For these purposes, "origin" means the place where the goods are mined, grown,
produced or manufactured and/or from which services are provided. The origin of the
goods must be determined according to the EU Customs Code, or to the relevant
international agreement applicable.

Origin requirements specifically for products manufactured by Agilent
For Agilent products articles 24 and 41 of the EU Community Customs Code apply
 Article 24: “Goods whose production involved more than one country shall be
deemed to originate in the country where they underwent their last, substantial,
economically justified processing or working in any undertaking equipped for that
purpose and resulting in a manufacture of a new product, or representing an
important stage of manufacture”
 Article 41 determines how reasonable quantities of accessories, parts and
consumables, obtain the same origin as the system manufactured under article 24
and of which they are an integral- and dependently functioning part. These goods
must be shipped with the system and be part of the Certificate of EU Origin.
!! For independently functioning accessories such as chillers (coolers), gas
generators, computers, printers, UPS systems, microwave digesters and robotic
sample preparation devices, EU manufactured systems with a separate Certificate of
Origin, or Long Standing Manufacturers’ Declaration must be supplied.

 In Waldbronn, Germany the EU Licensed Manufacturing Team makes a
selection of Agilent instruments available with EU origin.

 Equipment available with EU Origin is listed in EU Order Guides in ELSA*.
 These instruments have a unique EU Part Number. Always use this number!
 For accessories, which by EU Customs Law are not eligible for EU Origin, EU alternative

EU Origin.

• Involve EuropeAid Program Manager from the start
• Define technically competitive configurations compliant with tender
specifications. Ask clarification questions to the tender committee.
• Assure availability of EU Origin
• Determine effective Tender Bid Strategy (use EuropeAid Tender Checklist)
• Distributor decides whether to bid directly, or via System Integrator
• Know all tender requirements (eligibility, ground for exclusion, documents,
conflicts of interest, financial- & economic capacities, bank guarantees)
• Mind the dead lines! Avoid the typical rush at the end.
• Inform Agilent ASAP when a EuropeAid tender has been won
• Provide EuropeAid reference number, contract signature date, ultimate
shipment date, need for IVL application (ICP-MS) and full configuration details
• In case a System Integrator is involved, make sure that all T&C’s of sale and
shipping instructions are included in the PO on Agilent
• In the PO provide the EU Part number and follow the instructions in the EU
order guides in ELSA
• Include all items in one purchase order to ensure that all products will be
included in the Certificate of EU Origin and shipped in one shipment
