Laws with $$ penalties attached for incorrectly representing country of origin.

To clarify as others are suggesting a loophole where you do 99% of the work somewhere, then 1% elsewhere and label it that final country, that’s an exaggeration. Most of these laws require you to prove “significant transformation” in that final country, or that >50% of the value was added, depending on the industry.
