Iran's certification export COI (certificate of inspection), which means conformity verification in Chinese, is a related inspection required by Iran's mandatory import law inspection. When the exported products are within the scope of the COI (certificate of inspection) list, the importer must inspect and issue a certificate in accordance with the Iranian national standard ISIRI when clearing customs. To obtain certification for export to Iran, it is necessary to obtain relevant certification through an authorized third-party agency.
Most industrial products, equipment and machinery imported into Iran need to follow the mandatory certification procedures established by ISIRI (Iran Standards and Industrial Research Institute). Iran's import regulations are complex and require a lot of documentation support. For details, please refer to the Iran Compulsory Certification Product List to understand the products that must undergo the ISIRI "Conformity Verification" procedure.
The products mentioned in this list can only obtain the Certificate of Conformity (CoC) issued by ISIRI on the basis of the "Conformity Verification" provided by the inspection company recognized by the Iranian government; and the Certificate of Conformity issued by ISIRI is a necessary document for customs clearance of goods import. As an importer, you must confirm with the Iranian government authorities whether the products you import must follow the mandatory certification procedures and provide the relevant documents required for certification.
Iran VOC certification (Verification of Conformity) means compliance certification, which means Iran's mandatory conformity assessment procedures. The Iranian Standards and Industrial Research Institute (ISIRI) is authorized by the Iranian government through a ministerial order to manage the quality of goods imported into Iran to protect the safety, health and environment of the public, prevent low-quality products from impacting related industries, and issue customs clearance certificates based on the inspection results for release by Iranian customs.
