Certificates of Origin

Doing business overseas? Your Chamber provides required certificates of origin. Simply make sure that your certificates have the proper wording, and we will sign and stamp them when you come into the office. We do have a notary in the office. If you need your Certificate certified and notarized please call the office to make an appointment so that we can ensure the notary is in the office.

Please note that our Legal name is the Southwest King County Chamber of Commerce. We are only able to stamp or emboss certificates with our legal name.

We accept Certificates of Origins from Monday through Friday, 9:00am to 4:30pm. Before coming in, please call 206-575-1633 to make sure we are available and in the office as our schedule may change. Payment is due at the time of signing.
