Unlike steel products, textiles under the EFTA–Colombia FTA have distinct, often stricter cumulation criteria. Textiles manufactured in EFTA countries and Colombia may combine their origin percentages provided they meet minimum local value-added thresholds – typically, a defined share of total production must occur within these jurisdictions. This matters significantly for textile firms, as this sector is particularly sensitive to origin rules. Practitioners carefully verify whether a textile product (fabrics, woven goods, finished garments) qualifies for cumulation before claiming tariff benefits.
