2. (a) when a product composed of a group or assembly of articles is classified under the terms of the Harmonized System (HS

str. 121) in a single heading, the whole constitutes the unit of qualification; and
3. (b) when a consignment consists of a number of identical products classified under the same heading of the Harmonized System (HS), each product must be taken individually when applying the provisions of this Chapter. 2. Where, under General Rule 5 of the Harmonized System (HS), packaging is included with the product for classification purposes, it shall be included for the purposes of determining origin. 3.

Where considerable cost or material difficulties arise in keeping separate stocks of originating and non-originating materials which are identical and interchangeable, the so-called "accounting segregation" method may be used for managing such stocks. 3. This method must be able to ensure that the number of products obtained which could be considered as "originating" is the same as that which would have been obtained if there had been physical segregation of the stocks. 4. This method is recorded and applied on the basis of the general accounting principles applicable in the Party where the product was manufactured. 5. The user of this method may issue or apply for proofs of origin providing information about the inventory management method used, as the case may be, for the quantity of products which may be considered as originating. The management method selected for a particular fungible material or material shall continue to be used for that good or material throughout the fiscal year of the person that selected the inventory management method.

ARTICLE 3.9: ACCESSORIES, SPARE PARTS AND TOOLS

str. 122Accessories, spare parts and tools dispatched with a piece of equipment, machine, apparatus or vehicle, which are part of the normal equipment and included in the price thereof or which are not separately invoiced, shall be regarded as one with the piece of equipment, machine, apparatus or vehicle in question.

ARTICLE 3.10: SETS

str. 122Sets, as defined in General Rule 3 of the Harmonized System (HS), shall be regarded as originating when all component goods are originating. Nevertheless, when a set is composed of originating and non-originating goods, the set as a whole shall be regarded as originating, provided that the CIF value of the non-originating goods does not exceed 15% of the ex-works price of the set.

ARTICLE 3.11: NEUTRAL ELEMENTS

str. 122In order to determine whether a product originates, it shall not be necessary to determine the origin of the following which might be used in its manufacture:

- (a) energy and fuel;
- (b) plant and equipment;
- (c) machines and tools; and
- (d) goods which do not enter into the final composition of the product.

ARTICLE 3.12: PRINCIPLE OF TERRITORIALITY

str. 1221.

- (a) the returning goods are the same as those exported; and
- (b) the non-Party have not undergone any operation beyond that necessary to preserve them in good condition while in that non-Party or while being exported.

str. 1233. Notwithstanding paragraphs 1 and 2, goods listed in Annex 3-F shall be considered originating goods in accordance with Annex 3-F, even if such goods have undergone operations and processes outside the territories of the Parties.

ARTICLE 3.13: DIRECT TRANSPORT

str. 1231. The preferential treatment provided for under this Agreement applies only to products, satisfying the requirements of this Chapter, which are transported directly between the territories of the Parties. However, products originating in the terrritories of the Parties and constituting one single consignment which is not split up may be transported through the territory of a non-Party with, should the occasion arise, transhipment or temporary warehousing in such territories, provided that the goods have remained under the surveillance of the customs authorities in the country of transit or temporary warehousing; and

- (a) the transit entry is justified for geographical reasons or by consideration related exclusively to transport requirements; and
- (b) they are not intended for trade, consumption, use or employment in the non-Party where the goods were in transit; and
- (c) they do not undergo operations other than unloading, reloading or any operation designed to preserve them in good condition. 2. Evidence that the conditions set out in paragraph 1 have been fulfilled shall be supplied, upon request, to the customs authorities of the importing Party by the submission of:

- (a) any single through transport documents, that meets international standards and that proves that the goods were directly transported from the exporting Party through the non-Party where the goods are in transit to the importing Party; or
- (b) a certificate issued by the customs authorities of the non-Party where the goods were in transit, which contains an exact description of the goods, the date and place of loading and re-loading of the goods in that non-Party and the conditions under which the goods were placed; or
- (c) in the absence of any of the above documents, any other documents that will prove the direct shipment. 3. Notwithstanding paragraphs 1 and 2, within one year from the entry into force of this Agreement, the Parties shall discuss the possibility of a mechanism for allowing that an originating good, which is transshipped through the territory of a non-Party with which each Party has entered separately into a free trade agreement under Article XXIV of GATT 1994 and its Interpretative Notes, will not lose its originating status.

str. 1241. Originating goods, sent for exhibition in a non-Party other than the territory of either Party and sold after the exhibition for importation in the territory of either Party shall benefit on importation from the provisions of this Agreement provided it is shown to the satisfaction of the customs authorities that:

- (a) an exporter has consigned these goods from the territory of either Party to the non-Party in which the exhibition is held and has exhibited them there;
- (b) the goods have been sold or otherwise disposed of by that exporter to a person in the teritory of either Party;
- (c) the goods have been consigned during the exhibition or immediately thereafter in the non-Party to which they were sent for exhibition; and
- (d) the goods have not, since they were consigned for exhibition, been used for any purpose other than demonstration at the exhibition. 2. A proof of origin must be issued or made out in accordance with the provisions of this Chapter and submitted to the customs authorities of the importing Party in the normal manner. The name and address of the exhibition must be indicated thereon. Where necessary, additional documentary evidence of the conditions under which the products have been exhibited may be required. 3. Paragraph 1 shall apply to any trade, industrial, agricultural or crafts exhibition, fair or similar public show or display which is not organized for private purposes in shops or business premises with a view to the sale of foreign goods, and during which the goods, remain under customs control.

- (a) A Certificate of Origin, a specimen of which appears in Annex 3-B; or
- (b) in the cases specified in Article 3.19, a declaration, subsequently referred to as the 'Invoice Declaration' given by an exporter on an invoice, delivery note, or any other commercial document, which

describes the products concerned in sufficient detail to enable them to be identified; the text of the Invoice Declaration appears in Annex 3-C.

str. 1252. Notwithstanding paragraph 1, originating products within the meaning of this Chapter shall, in the cases specified in Article 3.23, benefit from this Agreement without it being necessary to submit any of the documents referred to above.

ARTICLE 3.16: PROCEDURES FOR THE ISSUANCE OF CERTIFICATES OF ORIGIN

str. 1251. Certificates of Origin shall be issued by the customs authorities of the exporting Party, either upon an electronic application or an application in paper form, having been made by the exporter or under the exporter's responsibility by his or her authorized representative, in accordance with the domestic regulations of the exporting Party. 2. For the purpose of paragraph 1, the exporter or his or her authorized representative shall fill out the electronic application form in accordance with Annex 3-D and in the case of applications in paper form, in accordance with Annex 3-E.

The exporter applying for the issuance of a Certificate of Origin shall be prepared to submit at any time, at the request of the customs authorities of the exporting Party, all appropriate documents proving the originating status of the goods concerned, as well as the fulfillment of the other requirements of this Chapter. 4. Certificates of Origin shall be issued if the goods to be exported can be considered as products originating in the exporting Party in accordance with Article 3.2. 5. The customs authorities shall take any steps necessary to verify the originating status of the products and the fulfillment of the other requirements of this Chapter. For this purpose, they shall have the right to call for any evidence and to carry out any inspection of the exporter's books or any other check considered appropriate. 6. Each Certificate of Origin will be assigned a specific number by the issuing customs authorities. 7. Certificates of Origin shall be issued by the customs authorities and made available to the exporter as soon as the actual exportation has been effected or insured.

ARTICLE 3.17: CERTIFICATES OF ORIGIN ISSUED RETROSPECTIVELY

str. 1251. Notwithstanding Article 3.16.7, a Certificate of Origin may exceptionally be issued after exportation of the products to which it relates if it was not issued at the time of exportation because of errors or involuntary omissions or special

circumstances or it is demonstrated to the satisfaction of the customs authorities that the Certificate was issued but was not accepted at importation for technical reasons.

str. 1262. For the implementation of paragraph 1, the exporter must indicate in his or her application the place and date of exportation of the products to which the Certificate of Origin relates, and state the reasons for his or her request. 3.

capable of fulfilling the term of the contract and, based solely on the evaluation criteria specified in the notices and tender documentation, has submitted:

str. 189- (a) the most advantageous tender; or
- (b) where price is the sole criterion, the lowest price. 6. Where a procuring entity receives a tender with a price that is abnormally lower than the prices in other tenders submitted, it may verify with the supplier that it satisfies the conditions for participation and is capable of fulfilling the terms of the contract. 7. A procuring entity shall not use options, cancel a covered procurement, or terminate or modify awarded contracts in a manner that circumvents this Chapter.

General Notes:

str. 2941. Israel accepted the obligations of Article VIII of the Articles of Agreement of the International Monetary Fund, Sections 2, 3, and 4 on September 21, 1993. Israel maintains an exchange system free of restrictions on the making of payments and transfers for current international transactions, with the exception of measures introduced for security reasons pursuant to Decision No. 144-(52/51) of the IMF, and subject to a reporting requirement to the Bank of Israel directly or through the financial intermediary. 2. For prudential reasons within the context of paragraph 2(a) of the GATS Annex on Financial Services, Israel applies, inter alia , measures requiring juridical form of establishment or residence of natural persons in Israel for the supply of Financial Services. 3. Modes of supply 1 and 2 in financial services schedules: the absence of any limitation on the ability of a resident consumer to purchase the service in the territory of another Member does not signify a commitment to allow a non-resident service supplier to solicit business or to conduct active marketing in the territory of the Member.
