Certification Introduction:
Controlled products exported to Morocco must comply with Morocco's technical regulations and standards, and must obtain a COC certificate in order to successfully clear customs and enter the Moroccan market. For controlled products that need to apply for and obtain a COC certificate before exporting, traders must verify the controlled products before exporting and obtain a COC conformity certificate to verify that the product complies with Morocco's local technical regulations and standards.
Previously, Morocco implemented a transitional policy: for some products that did not obtain the COC conformity certificate before export, the Moroccan government accepted the inspection and verification after arrival at the port. This transition policy ends on December 31, 2020.

Certification Introduction:
The South African National Mandatory Norms Implementation Act (Act 5 of 2008) was promulgated in Government Gazette 31216 on July 4, 2008, and enforced on September 1, 2008, under the control of the South African agency NRCS. NRCS is the abbreviation of National Regulator of Compulsory Specification. The full name in Chinese is the National Mandatory Requirements Management Department. Its predecessor was the SABS-certified regulatory department, and later it has become an independent department. All electrical and electronic products that meet the requirements, whether exported or sold in the South African market, must apply to NRCS for a power of attorney as a customs clearance and sales pass.
Certification Category
• NRCS (LOA): Import License (Safety, Mandatory), must have a local agent in South Africa.
• EMI Certificate (CoC): Certificate of Conformity (EMI, Mandatory).
Standard Test
• Safety: IEC, SABS/SANS
• EMI: IEC, EN, CISPR, SABS/SANS
Applicable Product Range:
The electrical and electronic products included in the mandatory specifications are divided into the following five categories:
1. Household and similar products
2. Information technology products
3. Electronic entertainment equipment
4. Handheld power tools
5. Wire and cable
South African Certification Body Instructions:
The certification of electrical and electronic products is mainly divided into two aspects: safety regulations and electromagnetic compatibility. For safety, you must obtain LOA (Letter Of Authority) certificate, and for electromagnetic compatibility, you need to obtain COC (Certificate Of Compliance) certificate. The following is an explanation of important terms:
1. NRCS: It is the issuing authority of the LOA certificate.
2. SABS: It is the issuing body for COC certificate and SABS mark certification. The South African Bureau of Standards SABS (South African Bureau of Standards) is responsible for the braking of South African standards, as well as certification and testing.
3. LOA certification: Letter Of Authority, for security.
4. COC certification: Certificate Of Compliance, for EMC.
5. SABS certification: This certification is voluntary. The requirements are relatively strict, requiring the South African Bureau of Standards (SABS) to arrange factory inspection and testing, and there will be two annual audits every year after the certification.
Comparison of NRCS and SABS
Certification Introduction:
The South African Bureau of Standards (SABS) was established in accordance with the National Standards Act promulgated in 1945 and is subordinate to the South African Ministry of Trade and Industry. SABS is a neutral third-party certification body in South Africa, responsible for system certification and product certification in South Africa. In addition to the responsibilities of setting standards, SABS also represents the national management standard and grants the right to use the logo for products that meet the standard. SABS Mark has been widely used in various fields and has become a symbol of product quality assurance.
According to the requirements of the South African National Bureau of Standards SABS, only the EMC report issued by the laboratory authorized by the A-Lab program can be used to apply for the EMC CoC certificate issued by SABS. On May 12, 2021, BACL was successfully approved to become the A-Lab program authorized laboratory of SABS in South Africa, which means that the EMC report issued by BACL can be directly used to apply for the SABS EMC CoC certificate.
The scope of BACL's accreditation by SABS is as follows:

Certification Introduction:
South Africa's independent communications authority (ICASA, which is the regulator of South Africa's national broadcast communications and postal services), all wireless products must obtain ICASA certification before entering the South African market. For wireless communication equipment exported to the South African market, it is necessary to apply for type certification to the Independent Communications Authority of South Africa (ICASA), and it can be sold only after the approval. This is also equivalent to the approval of domestic network access models to apply for ICASA certification in South Africa. It should be noted that ICASA certification can only be issued to local registered companies or representative offices in South Africa. Therefore, it is best for domestic manufacturers to apply for ICASA by local importers, but the test can be done domestically.
Authentication Basic Information:
• Is it mandatory: yes
• Regulated products: wireless communication products
• Factory Inspection: None
• Certificate Validity Period: None

Basic Introduction
According to the Kenyan government decree, the importer of the company must obtain the "Certificate of Conformity" (COC, CERTIFICATE OF CONFORMITY) before going through customs clearance procedures with Kenya Customs. After the inspection is completed, the original COC certificate will be sent to the exporter by express mail. If you need to mail it directly to the importer or other person, please specify clearly in the remarks column of this application form.
It is necessary to fill in this application form and its attached pages truthfully, correctly and completely, including relevant HS code, ICS code and other information. It is the basic responsibility of the applicant to fill in the product description and HS code correctly. Failure to fill in the product description and/or HS code correctly will result in inconsistencies in on-site inspection/testing, so that COC cannot be issued, and the applicant will still bear the relevant costs and leave a bad credit record. Once the goods are shipped to Kenya, the It will be required to be rectified and fined by the Kenyan management.
Market Access Requirements:
On September 29, 2005, the Kenya Bureau of Standards (KEBS) began to implement the Pre-Export Standards Conformity Verification Scheme (PVoC). Products in the PVoC catalog must obtain a Certificate of Conformity (CoC) before shipment, and provide it to Kenya Customs upon arrival, otherwise they will not be able to enter the country. If there is no CoC, KEBS may decide to inspect the batch of goods and impose a fine.
