Greetings, I always understood that it was "Customs" that required the statement as to the country of origin. I believe it has to do with tariffs. I also believe that for the US the NAFTA agreement spells out if it can say made or assembled in by how much of the material is of that countries origin.

On the label with compliance information we normally also add something like : "Country of origin " or " Made in" this is required by some of the EU directives and others (normally just the country of the main company who have the legal responsibility. ) But my questions are; -what is the rules for this information, is it just country of the company or is it the country where it is assembled, and what if it is partly made in different countries ? -which authoryties requires this informations other than EU directives (and FCC part 68) Best regards, Mr. Kim Boll Jensen i-data, Denmark --------- This message is coming from the emc-pstc discussion list.
