Definition
Iran VOC certification, also known as Iran COI certification, is a mandatory inspection certification.
Products involved in domestic industrial projects in Iran need to undergo inspection and certification before shipment. The "conformity verification" procedure conducted according to ISIRI recognized product standards is usually combined with the inspection requirements of Iranian importers to ensure that the batch of products not only meets the mandatory certification requirements of the Iranian government, but also meets the requirements of the Iranian importer itself.
Certification scope
For goods exported to Iran, according to the regulations of ISIRI in Iran, in principle, pre shipment inspection must be carried out in the exporting country. Exporters can handle foreign exchange settlement with the bank based on the original inspection certificate issued by the inspection company, while importers can handle customs clearance and tariff collection procedures with the importing country's customs based on the original inspection certificate.
For goods listed in the "Catalogue Approved by the Iranian Government for the Implementation of Mandatory Standards on Imported Goods from Iran (2005 Edition)" (hereinafter referred to as the "Catalogue"), regardless of whether there are requirements in the L/C, the products must be tested according to relevant international standards to confirm that their performance indicators meet the requirements of the standards, and the inspection company must issue a Certificate of Conformity (VOC Certificate). Importers can only handle customs clearance procedures with this certificate.
