OUTSIDE THE EU

Transparency is the entry ticket

Manufacturers outside the EU can trade on SOURCED only through a full-transparency route: EU representative, customs EORI, ownership disclosure and product conformity accountability.

EU authorised representative

A named person or company established in the EU who can be contacted by market surveillance authorities (EU 2019/1020).

Customs EORI number

Your own EORI, or your importer's, so consignments can be traced end to end.

Beneficial ownership

Every natural person holding more than 25% of the company, with nationality and stake.

Product conformity

Declaration of CE conformity and the GPSR responsible person for consumer products.

Sanctions and forced labour

Signed declarations against the EU Sanctions Map and the forced-labour ban.

Factory transparency

Production address and the audit body that last inspected it — buyers can request the report.

The admission route

Six steps, scored as you go

  1. 01 — Company and registration. Legal entity, national register number, tax identifier and EU EORI, checked for structural validity.
  2. 02 — EU authorised representative. A mandated contact established in the Union, as Regulation (EU) 2019/1020 requires. We write to confirm the mandate.
  3. 03 — Beneficial ownership. Every natural person above 25%, with nationality and stake, plus your group structure.
  4. 04 — Production and conformity. Factory address, last audit body and date, certifications, CE technical files.
  5. 05 — Trade controls. Sanctions, forced labour and dual-use declarations, plus your customs route and importer of record.
  6. 06 — Declarations and submission. Reviewed summary and a transparency score that must reach 70 before it can be sent.
