Non-originating materials
Also called: NOM · third-country materials
Materials used in production that do not qualify as originating, including inputs from third countries and inputs of undetermined origin. Product-specific rules limit their use, for example by requiring a change in tariff classification or capping their value.
In practice
Treating inputs with unknown origin as non-originating is the safe default when calculating whether a product qualifies.
