Scope
This standard provides the principles and details for declarations necessary between members of a supply
chain. Although this standard contains only generic information regarding trading partners, when combined
with a specific sectional standard, the entire document set is used to define and maintain the declaration
type information. The requirements pertain to both hard copy and electronic data descriptions. This
standard provides for the creation of a record that will serve as a commitment between trading partners and
may be used to establish due diligence in any dispute in third-party litigation.
