Certificate of Compliance

What is a Certificate of Compliance?

Certificate of Compliance is a document which certifies that the goods or services supplied meet the required standards. The document is a way of ensuring that consumers in the importing countries are protected against harmful or sub-standard products.

Arriving goods which do not meet the standards, as specified by the importing country may not be allowed in. In some cases, the transported goods are confiscated.

This document is also known as the Certificate of Conformity and Certificate of Conformance.
