Overview

What is coc attestation?

A certificate of conformity (COC) confirms that goods meet the technical standards of the importing country. Several countries run conformity programmes that require a COC before customs releases the cargo.

Where the buyer or authority asks for a legalised COC, the certificate goes through Chamber of Commerce attestation, the MEA and, for embassy countries, the destination embassy. Some programmes verify COCs electronically, so check what your buyer actually needs.

Who issues it in India

A certificate of conformity is issued by an approved inspection or testing agency, often under the importing country's own conformity programme.

Why it is needed abroad

Customs clearance under conformity programmes
Product standards compliance
Government and project tenders
