Starting from January 18, 2012 Bureau Veritas will carry out the verification of regulated goods in the countries of export within the assigned regions:

Products covered are:

Companies exporting these kinds of goods to Kenya have to get the required Certificate of Conformity (CoC) after having the conformity of the goods checked prior to shipment. To do so, exporters are advised to contact Bureau Veritas with the list of products, related conformity proofs to Kenyan standards or international/regional/national standards.

To facilitate trade and to adjust intervention according to the risk, the PVoC programme offers 3 different routes to demonstrate products compliance:

Route A: Applicable to any goods and any trader
Route B: Option for frequent traders of goods that have been registered by Bureau Veritas
Route C: Option for frequent traders of goods that have been licensed by Bureau Veritas
