This Guide provides an outline of the customs aspects of the Market Access Initiative for least developed countries (LDCs), which came into force on January 1, 2003. A list of the least developed countries can be found in APPENDIX "A" to this guide.
This guide has been developed to assist importers, exporters and customs staff understand the customs aspects of the Market Access Initiative. Members of the textile and apparel industries, as well as members of the brokerage community may also find the information and concepts presented in this guide to be useful.
While the Guide is accurate and comprehensive, it should only be considered as a reference tool. Any omissions or oversights remain the responsibility of the Origin Policy Unit, Origin and Valuation Division, Trade policy and Interpretation Directorate, Customs Branch. More detailed information concerning the Market Access Initiative for LDCs, and the programs upon which it will have an impact is available from such other sources as the Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade (DFAIT)

Addressing poverty in the world's poorest countries has been a longstanding concern of Canadians. In February of 2002, the Government of Canada began exploring the idea of expanding market access to the Canadian economy for LDCs. The idea, in principle is to encourage foreign development in the least developed countries through duty-free and quota-free access to the Canadian market for exports from these countries thereby promoting economic growth. There is an international consensus that bringing the world's poorest countries into the global economy is essential to their economic growth and development. Without economic growth, poverty does not decrease.
The main objectives of the Initiative are:
For ease of reference and the purposes of this guide, unless otherwise specified:
In 2000, Canada's imports from LDCs were one one-thousandth (0.1 percent) of our total imports, half of what they were in 1991. Canada imported $367 million of products from 48 of these countries. Over the past decade, imports from LDCs have averaged just over $300 million a year. Prior to this initiative, approximately half of our imports from LDCs faced tariffs averaging 19 percent. Essentially all their agriculture imports (more than 99 percent) already enter duty free.
With few specific exclusions, all goods imported into Canada determined to be originating in an LDC will be granted duty-free status.
Under the terms of the Initiative, certain supply-managed agricultural products will be excluded from duty-free and quota-free entitlement. Dairy, poultry and egg products originating in an LDC are not entitled to duty-free status.
The Initiative provides for the immediate granting of duty-free status to qualified imports from LDCs upon implementation. Qualified goods with proper proof of origin documentation accounted for on, or after, 12:01 a.m. January 1, 2003 will be entitled to the benefits of duty-free status under the terms of the Initiative.
The current staging reductions of LDCT rates have been discontinued and replaced with an immediate rate of "Free" under authority of Statutory Order Regulation.
To be eligible for the LDCT, goods must satisfy legal requirements respecting:
The LDCT requirements regarding rules of origin and certification are described in the following sections of this Guide. The shipping requirements are described below.
The goods must be shipped directly on a through bill of lading (TBL) to a consignee in Canada from the LDC in which the goods were certified. Evidence in the form of a TBL (or a copy) showing that the goods have been shipped directly to a consignee in Canada must be presented to the CBSA upon request.
The TBL is one single document that is issued prior to the goods beginning their journey when the carrier assumes care, custody, and control of the goods and will usually contain the following information:
On a case-by-case basis, an amended TBL may be accepted as proof of direct shipment where documentation errors have occurred and the amended TBL corrects an error in the original document. In such cases, the carrier must provide proof that the amended TBL reflects the actual movement of the goods as contracted when the goods began their journey. Documentation presented must clearly indicate the actual movement of the goods.
Air cargo is usually transshipped in the air carrier's home country even if no transshipment is shown on the house air waybill. Therefore, where goods are transported via airfreight, the house air waybill is acceptable as a TBL.
Under the LDCT treatment, goods may be transshipped through an intermediate country, provided that:
For more information on shipping requirements and transshipment, refer to D11-4-4, Rules of Origin Respecting the General Preferential Tariff and the Least Developed Country Tariff on the CBSA Web site.
In some cases, goods from an LDC may not qualify for duty-free status. In these situations the goods may still be eligible for the General Preferential Tariff (GPT), or Most-Favoured-Nation Tariff (MFN).
Goods imported from an LDC beneficiary should be accounted for under one of the following tariff treatment codes:
For additional information on the accounting of imported goods, refer to D17-1-10, Coding of Customs Accounting Documents on the CBSA Web site.
There are two methods under which goods from an LDC can be considered to be entitled to the benefits of duty-free access to Canada. First, all goods currently entitled to the benefits of the LDCT can qualify under a wholly produced rule or a cumulative manufacturing process in an LDC beneficiary with value-added inputs or cumulations from other LDCs or Canada. Second, and with specific reference to textile and apparel goods, a good can qualify under a wholly produced rule or one of the new specific rules of origin governing the country of origin of inputs and the manufacture of goods. The application of either one of the existing rules or any of the new rules is dependent on the nature of the good being exported and where it is provided for in the Schedule to the Rules of Origin Regulations Respecting the General Preferential Tariff and the Least Developed Country Tariff (the "schedule") (APPENDIX "B"). All goods that are entitled to the LDCT must be certified as originating in an LDC under one of the following rules:
A good originates in a beneficiary country or a least developed country if the good is:
All goods currently entitled to the benefits of the LDCT originate in an LDC if the value of the materials, parts or products originating outside that country, or in an undetermined location, and used in the manufacture or production of the goods is no more than 60% of the ex-factory price of the goods as packed for shipment to Canada.
Except in the case of goods listed in Parts A1, B1, C1 and D of the schedule, goods originate in a least developed country if the value of the materials, parts or products originating outside that country, or in an undetermined location, and used in the manufacture or production of the goods is no more than 60% of the ex-factory price of the goods as packed for shipment to Canada.
Goods listed in Parts A1 and A2 of the schedule originate in a least developed country if they are spun or extruded in a least developed country and do not undergo further processing outside a least developed country.
Goods listed in Parts B1 and B2 of the schedule originate in a least developed country if they are produced in a least developed country from yarns originating in a least developed country, a beneficiary country or Canada, provided:
Goods listed in Parts C1 and C2 of the schedule originate in a least developed country if they are assembled in a least developed country from fabric cut in that country or in Canada, or from parts knit to shape, provided the fabric, or the parts knit to shape, are produced in:
Goods listed in Part D of the schedule originate in a least developed country if they are cut, or knit to shape, and sewn or otherwise assembled in the least developed country from fabric produced in any least developed country or Canada from yarns originating in a least developed country, a beneficiary country or Canada, provided the yarns and fabric have not undergone further processing outside a least developed country or Canada.
Goods currently entitled to the benefits of the LDCT, and listed in Parts A2, B2 or C2 of the schedule to the Regulations, can qualify as originating under the existing LDC rules of origin - or under one of the applicable new rules of origin as identified in criteria B through G.
Wool of Yemen is combined with spandex of Hong Kong and sewing thread of India to manufacture wool socks in Yemen. Under the Accumulation Rule of origin criteria "A", a textile or apparel good must contain parts and materials of LDC origin that represent no less than 40% of the ex-factory price of the good as it is packed for shipment to Canada. The wool of Yemen origin represents 35% of the ex-factory price. The sewing thread of India and spandex of Hong Kong represents an additional 7%. The accumulation rule allows for inputs from a GPT country, in this case both Hong Kong and India, to be included in the 40% parts and materials requirement. The 35% input of wool from Yemen combined with the 7% sewing thread and spandex input from GPT countries meets the 40% input requirement under the accumulation rule. The socks qualify for duty-free market access.
Goods listed in Parts A1 and A2 of the schedule and classified as "Yarns or Sewing Threads" originate in a LDC if they are spun or extruded in a LDC.
Cotton of any country of origin is imported into Bangladesh and spun into yarn or sewing thread in that same country. Under the specific rule of origin for goods listed in Parts A1 or A2 of the schedule, the process of spinning the cotton into yarn or sewing thread is sufficient to confer originating status on the goods. The finished yarn or sewing thread is allowed to be further processed in another LDC country, returned to Bangladesh and exported as yarn or sewing thread and still be certifiable as originating in an LDC.
However, if the finished yarn or sewing thread were further processed outside of an LDC, in China for instance, returned to Bangladesh and exported as sewing thread or yarn, this would offend the provisions of this specific rule of origin and the goods would not be entitled to be certified as originating in an LDC.
It should be further noted that in respect of goods listed in Part A2 of the schedule, the exporter/producer has the option of certifying the goods under this specific rule or under the more general LDC cumulative input rule of a minimum of 40% LDC input.
Goods listed in Parts B1 and B2 of the schedule and classified as "Fabrics" originate in an LDC if they are produced in an LDC from yarns originating in an LDC, a GPT country or Canada.
Yarn produced in India is exported to Mali. This yarn is processed into finished cotton fabric in Mali by an automated looming process. The finished fabric is then exported to Canada. The finished fabric has been produced in an LDC country from yarn originating in a GPT country and exported direct to Canada without further processing outside of an LDC. This process meets the requirements of the specific rule of origin for goods listed in Parts B1 and B2 of the schedule. Therefore, the goods are entitled to be certified as originating in an LDC.
Consider if the yarn was imported into Mali from Spain. The yarn is processed into finished fabric in Mali and exported to Canada. In this scenario, the Spanish origin of the yarn (Spain not being a GPT or LDC beneficiary) offends the requirement in the specific rule of origin that the yarn be of LDC, GPT or Canadian origin. The finished fabric would not be entitled to be certified as LDC originating.
It should be further noted that in respect of goods listed in Part B2 of the schedule, the exporter/producer has the option of certifying the goods under this specific rule or under the more general LDC cumulative input rule of a minimum of 40% LDC input.
Goods listed in Parts C1 and C2 of the schedule and classified as articles of apparel.
Goods classified as articles of apparel are required to be assembled in an LDC. The fabric used in the manufacture of these articles of apparel must be cut in that LDC or Canada, or in the case where the article of apparel is assembled from parts, those parts must be knit to shape in any LDC or Canada.
The fabric, or the parts knit to shape must be produced in:
Dresses or skirts manufactured in Mali will qualify as originating and be eligible for duty-free LDCT provided that the dresses or skirts are assembled in Mali and made up from fabric that has been cut in Mali or Canada. The fabric must be produced in any LDC or in Canada from yarns that originate in any LDC, GPT country or Canada and must not have undergone any further processing outside any LDC or Canada.
It should be further noted that in respect of goods listed in Part C2 of the schedule, the exporter/producer has the option of certifying the goods under this specific rule or under the more general LDC cumulative input rule of a minimum of 40% LDC input.
Goods listed in Parts C1 and C2 of the schedule and classified as articles of apparel.
Goods classified as articles of apparel are required to be assembled in an LDC. The fabric used in the manufacture of these articles of apparel must be cut in that LDC or Canada, or in the case where the article of apparel is assembled from parts, those parts must be knit to shape in any GPT country.
The fabric, or the parts knit to shape must be produced in:
Those same dresses or skirts manufactured in Mali will qualify as and be eligible for duty-free LDCT provided that the dresses or skirts are assembled in Mali and the fabric used in the manufacture of the dresses or skirts is produced in a GPT country from yarns originating in an LDC, a GPT country or Canada. The yarns and fabric cannot undergo further processing outside an LDC, a GPT country or Canada. When using fabric manufactured in a GPT country, the value of any materials, including packing, that does not originate in the LDC in which the dresses or skirts are assembled, must not exceed 75% of the ex-factory price of the goods as packed for shipment to Canada.
It should be further noted that in respect of goods listed in Part C2 of the schedule, the exporter/producer has the option of certifying the goods under this specific rule or under the more general LDC cumulative input rule of a minimum of 40% LDC input
Goods classified as "other made-up" textiles and listed in Part D of the schedule must be cut, or knit to shape, and sewn or otherwise assembled in the LDC from fabric produced in any LDC or Canada from yarns originating in an LDC, a GPT country or Canada.
Wool yarn is produced in Afghanistan (or a GPT country or Canada) and exported directly to Bangladesh (or another LDC or Canada) and further produced into wool fabric. The wool fabric is shipped directly to Lao People's Democratic Republic for further production into a good classified as "Other Made-up Textile Articles". The production process of the finished good in Lao People's Democratic Republic must include cutting or knitting to shape of the fabric as well as sewing or otherwise assembling in that country.
Consider cotton harvested in Burundi. The cotton is processed into yarn or thread in Burundi and manufactured into blankets in Burundi, and exported from Burundi to Canada. The goods are wholly obtained, produced and manufactured in Burundi. The origin criteria on the Textile and Apparel Certificate of Origin is indicated as "G".
For additional information on the LDC Rules of Origin, refer to D11-4-4 Rules of Origin Respecting the General Preferential Tariff and Least Developed Country Tariff on thge CBSA Web site.
Non-textile and apparel goods must be certified as entitled to the benefits of duty-free market access under the LDCT on a Form A - Certificate of Origin.
For goods, other than textile and apparel goods, currently entitled to the benefits of the LDCT, the existing rules of origin for the Least Developed Country Tariff (LDCT) will remain in force and effect and may be used by exporters/producers to determine the entitlement of goods to the benefits of the Market Access Initiative.
The existing rules are set out in D11-4-4, and are further detailed in attachments to the Form A - Certificate of Origin as Origin criteria:
"P" - "100% Wholly produced in a LDC country".
"F" - "40% of the ex-factory price of the good was produced in THAT LDC country. * 20% of the 40% ex-factory cost can be from any GPT country
"G" - 40% of the ex-factory price of the goods was cumulatively produced in more than one LDCT beneficiary country. *20% of the 40% ex-factory cost can be from any GPT country.
See APPENDIX "C" for Form A - Certificate of Origin template.
Textile and apparel goods must be certified as entitled to the benefits of the LDCT on the Textile and Apparel Goods Originating in a Least Developed Country (LDC) Certificate of Origin. The new rules of origin for textile and apparel goods will be set out in D11-4-4. This memorandum also sets out specific origin criteria under which goods must qualify as well as specific instructions for completing the certificate. These instructions and criteria are also available on the reverse side of the original document. For ease of reference, the origin criteria for textile and apparel goods are categorized as follows:
Preference Criteria
See APPENDIX "C" for Textiles and Apparel Goods Certificate of Origin template.

For additional information on the Form A - Certificate of Origin and the Textile and Apparel Goods Originating in a Least Developed Country (LDC) Certificate of Origin, refer to D11-4-4, Rules of Origin Respecting the General Preferential Tariff and Least Developed Country Tariff on the CBSA Web site.
Verifications of the origin of imports from an LDC will be done initially through an origin questionnaire or letter. The Origin and Valuation Division, Origin Audit Unit in CBSA headquarters will send an origin verification questionnaire to the exporter/producer of an importation that is the subject of a verification.
The exporter/producer will complete the questionnaire or respond to the verification letter in the manner directed and return the completed document(s) to CBSA HQ. An origin auditor will review the document and determine, based on the information provided, whether the goods meet the requirements of the rules of origin, do not meet the requirements or if additional information is required.
If it is determined that the goods do not meet the requirements of the rules of origin, a CBSA official will issue a "Notice of Intent to Deny". This will serve as notice to the importer and exporter/producer that the goods do not qualify for the LDCT. The goods at issue will be determined dutiable at the next most beneficial rate of duty - either the GPT or the MFN. This entitlement will depend on the eligibility of the goods and the proof of origin requirements that are available to the customs officer(s). Note that the Form A - Certificate of Origin or an Exporter's Statement of Origin is a requirement for entitlement to the GPT.
If the origin auditor determined that additional information is required, they may issue a notification of intent to visit the premises of the exporter/producer. A copy of this notice will be sent to the designated official of the country in which the exporter/producer is located.
If the exporter/producer consents to the site visit, a verification team will visit the premises of the exporter/producer to gather the information that was unavailable in the questionnaire. Upon completion of the origin audit, CBSA will issue a preliminary report to the exporter/producer, outlining the results of the information gathering phase of the visit.
Upon review of the information in Canada and conclusion of the origin audit, CBSA will issue a final report detailing the findings of the origin audit. This report will be sent to the exporter/producer, with a notice of decision on the status of the goods vis-à-vis duty-free LDCT entitlement.
