Starting 6 May 2025, Malaysia’s Ministry of Investment, Trade, and Industry (MITI) will be the exclusive issuer of Non-Preferential Certificates of Origin (NPCO) for exports to the United States.


This bold move aims to combat transshipment fraud—where goods from other countries are rerouted through Malaysia to dodge US tariffs.


Key Changes:

Stricter Oversight: MITI will now handle all NPCO applications for US-bound shipments, replacing business councils and chambers.✔ Enhanced Audits: Tougher checks and collaboration with the Royal Malaysian Customs to crack down on false declarations.✔ Trade Integrity: The government is doubling down on fair trade practices to protect Malaysia’s reputation as a reliable trading partner.


Why It Matters:

Exporters must ensure compliance to avoid delays or penalties. This shift reinforces Malaysia’s commitment to transparent and lawful trade with the US.

Stay informed, stay compliant! 🇲🇾🇺🇸 #TradeNews #MITI #ExportRules #MalaysiaBusiness
