e-Cert is an online export documentation processing service using a secure electronic platform. The system enables you to apply for your Certificate of Origin, whether Arab (a-Cert) or European Community. Applications for A.TR.s and EUR1s are also available online.

"e-Cert is an excellent on-line application that will save us a lot of time by allowing us to prepare export documents in-house. The on-line guide supplemented by support from i-2-i and Chamber staff helped us to produce a Certificate of Origin as soon as we were registered."
Barry Jackson, Financial Controller & Company Secretary, CastingsTechnologyInternational
"Registering for the service was very easy and within a few minutes of learning this service was available I was registered and looking around the various options in the system. After ten minutes I had produced my first C of O and sent it to the Chamber. A saving in costs both from the lowered price for certificates and postage and stationary savings. Don't you just love technology."
Andrew Oates, General Manager, BJ Industries Ltd
