Overview

Why Brazil asks for a legalised certificate of conformity (COC)

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.

Customs brokers and banks in the Americas may ask for apostilled shipping documents for certain goods or payment terms.

Companies dealing with Brazil are most often asked for a legalised certificate of conformity (COC) during customs clearance under conformity programmes, as well as for product standards compliance and 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. Brazil accepts the apostille, so no embassy step is needed.

    An Indian Chamber of Commerce verifies the issuing authority's signature and your company's details, then stamps the certificate of conformity (COC).

    The MEA adds its apostille, which is the final step for a Hague Convention country.
