Type Approval for Burundi
The conformity criteria in Burundi are similar to those of the European Union, (the Declaration of Conformity according to EU directive 2014/53/EU).The homologation process in Benin eliminates the need for local laboratory testing or interaction with local representatives. Nevertheless, the authority may request a product sample for examination. Certificates come with a limited validity period, presently set at five years, and approved products must undergo mandatory labeling. Our team at RegulX will answer your questions regarding the conformity requirements in Benin and Afric. We will support you to navigate the homologation process with ease and offer our established long-term local representatives services.
