ASW is an environment whereby the 10 AMS NSW operate & integrate to expedite trade between ASEAN Member States

It is a regional facility to enable the seamless, standardized and harmonised routing of trade and customs-related information for customs clearance within Member states

The ASW and its National Single Windows (NSWs) operate in the open environment (functionally and technically) thus enabling linkages to other single windows in the near future

The Agreement to establish and implement ASW was signed on 9 December 2005 by ASEAN Economic Ministers at Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

ASEAN Member States to operationalize their NSWs by

The objective of the ASW Pilot Project is to design, test and evaluate the technical architecture for the exchange of data between ASEAN Member States (AMS)

Accurate Record Of Utilization (COO)

Facilitate Trade Without compromising controls

The mechanism to achieve the ASEAN Free Trade Area is through the implementation of the Common Effective Preferential Tariff (CEPT) Scheme which offers preferential duty rate for goods originating from ASEAN countries

Importers need to produce the CEPT Form D (Certificate of Origin) to enjoy the CEPT Import Duty Rate

The certifying authority of CEPT Form D is the government of the exporting member state

CEPT FORM D

CEPT Form D is of A4 size and in the prescribed format

CEPT Form D consist of 4 copies:

Original & Triplicate – submit to Customs of Importing Country

Duplicate – retained by the issuing authority

Quadruplicate – retained by the exporter

The triplicate shall be endorsed and returned to the issuing authority within reasonable period of time.

ASW FEASIBILITY TESTING ASW FEASIBILITY TESTING

The ASW Feasibility Testing initiative was conceptualized during the 3rd Meeting of the ASW TWG Meeting in 2007

AMS agreed to use a federated approach to facilitate electronic documents exchange between NSWs of AMS

Objectives of The ASW Feasibility Testing: To test environment where NSWs integrate and operate

simulationTo enable seamless routing and communication between NSWsAs a Indicator of NSW readiness for ASWTo discover potential errors/ shortfallTo familiarize with ASW environment

AMS agreed to conduct the Feasibility Testing through the exchange of electronic ATIGA Form D

The pilot testing started in June 2009

It involved 3 countries :
