SGS, the world’s leading testing, inspection and certification company, has published an article in its Product Conformity Assessment (PCA) Newsletter looking at the provisions in Tanzania’s pre-shipment verification of conformity (PVoC) program and recent changes to banned and prohibited goods.
Tanzania has enforced a PVoC program for general goods since 2012. It helps the government to protect citizens and the environment while ensuring products offered onto the market conform to accepted quality criteria.
SGS’s PCA Newsletter article looks at the program’s objectives, labeling requirements and recent changes to the list of banned and prohibited products – plastic bags and cosmetics.
