CBAM validation error: Declaration origin country format

This appears when the submitted value is outside the allowed set carried by the versioned rule.

Educational guide only — this module is not part of the current public offer.

What the check requires

Country of origin must be selected as an exact ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 code (for example CN, IN or TR). Country names and unsupported codes cannot be used for scope or defaults.

A blocking error — this record cannot pass deterministic validation until it is resolved.

Why this is reported

This appears when the submitted value is outside the allowed set carried by the versioned rule. The deterministic CBAM validator reports it as rule cbam.declaration.origin-country-format. The requirement and citation come from versioned profile 1.0.3; Clearlane does not replace them with an AI-generated verdict.

How it gets fixed

Check the source system and replace the value with an allowed value identified by the rule; do not map it by guesswork. Run validation again. Clearlane never fills a compliance value by guessing.
