BAAR, SWITZERLAND / AGILITYPR.NEWS / December 17, 2025 / SGS, the world’s leading testing, inspection and certification company, has published an article summarizing updates to Tanzania’s certificate of conformity (CoC) alongside the introduction of a phased system integration program designed to streamline and modernize information exchange and monitoring in the country’s pre-export verification of conformity (PVoC) framework.

As reported in the SGS article, from November 1, 2025, Tanzania’s Bureau of Standards (TBS) introduced an updated CoC template and initiated a staged process of integrated changes to its PVoC system intended to enhance document integrity and traceability.

The TBS’s phased system of integration is part of a broader initiative to make the country’s PVoC program deliver a more transparent, traceable and operationally efficient approach to product conformity that aligns with improvements in digital technology.

Streamlining processes, improving data accuracy and enabling a more effective oversight of trade compliance for Tanzania, the improved system connects platforms and automates key processes, helping to enhance accountability and provide stakeholders with quick access to information, thereby speeding up the verification process. These developments aim to strengthen existing processes to ensure products arriving in the country are safe and fit-for-purpose, as well as to build consumer and market trust, efficiency and compliance.
