The letter requesting the exception should include:
-
•
an explanation of why both countries should grant an exception; and
-
•
all of the required information to issue a certificate of coverage (see RS 02002.655).
Upon receipt of a request for a special exception, the agency that received the request
will consider it in collaboration with the other country’s agency. If both agencies
approve the request for a special exception, the agency that received the request
will issue a certificate of coverage. The certificate of coverage will serve as proof
of exemption from coverage and taxes in the other country.
For more information on how to issue a certificate of coverage under the agreement
with Uruguay, see RS 02002.655.
