“I certify that:
The information on this document is true and accurate and I assume the responsibility for proving such representations. I understand that I am liable for any false statements or material omissions made on or in connection with this document;

(d) Certification by the exporter or producer. (1) A certification may be prepared by the exporter or producer of the good on the basis of:
(i) The exporter's or producer's knowledge that the good is originating; or
