Derogation page in case of <90% but assembled and designed in D
In certain cases we can offer a derogation, typically this is for products that are above 80% Made-in-D, but do not make the 90% cutoff. A derogation would be allowed for companies that offered a credible plan to move to 90% within a 3-year period. An 18-month review to verify and a final certification before 3 years would be performed if progress is being made. If a credible plan is made, and progress is demonstrated at regular intervals, a derogation can be allowed for a period of up to 3 years. Again, in such cases please contact us to discuss solutions together to help your products become more democratic.
In cases where the percentage is below 80%, or the product has been developed or assembled in non-democratic countries, derogations are not possible. We offer the possibility of personalized assistance to help you towards a successful certification. Please contact us via our contact form and we will help you find solutions in moving your supply chains towards more democratic regions.
