Certificate of conformity (COC) for Belgium: what and why
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. A certificate of conformity is issued by an approved inspection or testing agency, often under the importing country's own conformity programme.
European buyers rarely need legalised shipping documents for routine trade, but authorities and banks may ask for them in tenders, disputes or special import regimes.
Authorities, banks and business partners in Belgium usually ask for a legalised certificate of conformity (COC) for customs clearance under conformity programmes, product standards compliance or government and project tenders.
A certificate of conformity (COC) issued in India is notarised, attested by an Indian Chamber of Commerce and then apostilled by the MEA. Belgium accepts the apostille, so no embassy step is needed.
