SGS Supports Cameroon’s Enforcement of Product Conformity for Imports

GENEVA, SWITZERLAND, July 3, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- SGS, the world’s leading testing, inspection and certification company, has announced the Republic of Cameroon’s reaffirmation of its Pre-Shipment Evaluation of Conformity (PECAE) program, underscoring continued efforts to ensure product quality and regulatory compliance for imports.

All goods imported into Cameroon, except those listed as exempt under Article 8 of Decree No. 2015/1875/PM, must be assessed prior to shipment by SGS, the state-appointed conformity assessment body. This requirement is established under Prime Ministerial Decree No. 2019/143 and remains a key component of Cameroon’s efforts to strengthen market surveillance and consumer safety.

A valid Certificate of Conformity (CoC) issued by SGS must be presented during customs clearance. Products found in local markets without certification are subject to seizure, with legal penalties for non-compliant parties.

SGS works in close partnership with Cameroon’s Agency for Standards and Quality (ANOR) to implement the PECAE program, providing expert support to manufacturers, exporters, and traders to ensure full compliance with import regulations.
