Üldise soodustussüsteemi kohaldamine Üldist soodustussüsteemi (Generalized System of Preferences) kohaldatakse välisriikide poolt ühepoolselt rakendatava süsteemina, mis võimaldab Eesti päritoluga eksporditava kauba tollimaksusoodustustega importi neisse riikidesse viimaste poolt kehtestatud tingimustel. § 2. Päritolusertifikaadi vorm A väljastamine Üldisest soodustussüsteemist tulenevate tollimaksusoodustuste saamiseks väljastab toll päritolusertifikaadi vorm A käesoleva määruse lisa kohase vormi (edaspidi päritolusertifikaat) Eesti päritoluga väljaveetava kauba kohta. Päritolusertifikaat on dokument, mis tõendab, et kaup on välisriigi poolt kehtestatud päritolureeglite ja muude tingimuste kohaselt Eesti päritoluga. § 3. Päritolusertifikaadi kinnitamine (1) Päritolusertifikaadi kinnitamiseks tolli poolt esitab eksportija tollile vastavalt määruse §-le 9 täidetud päritolusertifikaadi ning kauba päritolu tõendavad dokumendid. (2) Toll kinnitab päritolusertifikaadi vaid juhul, kui kauba päritolu tõendatakse vastavalt välisriigi poolt kehtestatud päritolureeglitele. Kauba päritolu kontrollimiseks võib toll nõuda täiendavaid dokumente ning teostada kontrolli eksportija juures. (3) Eksportija vastutab päritolusertifikaadil märgitud andmete täielikkuse ja õigsuse eest ning kinnitab seda allkirjaga. (4) Eksportija soovil võib toll kinnitada päritolusertifikaadi ka pärast kauba väljavedu. § 4. Päritolusertifikaadi kehtivus (1) Päritolusertifikaadi kehtivuse aeg on kümme kuud tolli poolt selle kinnitamise kuupäevast arvates, kui välisriigis ei ole ette nähtud teisiti. (2) Päritolusertifikaat loetakse kehtivaks pärast selle kinnitamist tollis. § 5. Päritolusertifikaadi duplikaadi väljastamine Päritolusertifikaadi kaotsimineku või hävimise korral väljastatakse eksportijale soovi korral selle duplikaat. § 6. Välisriigi tolli järelepärimisele vastamine Kui välisriigi toll kahtleb päritolusertifikaadi autentsuses või konkreetse kauba päritolu puudutavate andmete täpsuses ja on saatnud päritolusertifikaadi või selle koopia koos kaaskirjaga järelkontrolliks Tolliametile, on Tolliamet kohustatud vastama järelepärimisele kuue kuu jooksul selle saamise kuupäevast arvates. § 7. Päritolusertifikaadi eksemplaride jaotus Päritolusertifikaat koosneb ühest originaalist ja kolmest koopiast, mis jaotatakse järgmiselt: 1) rohelise giljoððmustriga trükitud originaal ¿ välisriigi tollile; 2) koopia 1 ¿ kauba saajale; 3) koopia 2 ¿ eksportijale; 4) koopia 3 ¿ päritolusertifikaadi väljaandnud tolliasutusele. § 8.
