place of origin
Where something began
Place of origin is where something or someone comes from—a birthplace, homeland, or point of manufacture.
Immigration forms ask for place of origin.
Product labels indicate place of origin for regulatory or marketing purposes: The wine's place of origin is clearly marked on the bottle.
The phrase often appears in legal and commercial contexts where provenance matters.
