On May 14th 2023, the Somali Bureau of Standards (SOBS) has appointed Bureau Veritas to implement the Conformity Based Conformity Assessment program. Bureau Veritas verifies, in the region of export and prior to shipment, the conformity of the goods to Somali standards and other approved standards/regulations; issues the Certificate of Conformity required for customs clearance of the goods in Somalia.
The objectives of the program are to:
- Protect health and safety of Somali consumers
- Protect the environment
- Protect national economy development
- Facilitate and increase transparency in trading operations
All goods entering Somalia should be accompanied with a Certificate of Conformity.
All details on the program and process to follow are available on: https://verigates.bureauveritas.com/programmes/somalia
