In October 2012, Cotecna, one of the world's leading international testing, inspection and certification companies, was officially appointed by the Iraqi Central Organization for Standardization and Quality Control (COSQC) to handle the implementation of a verification of conformity program for goods imported into Iraq. We are glad to announce that we are fully operational to carry out these services.
As part of the country's import verification program, Cotecna is carrying out verifications and the issuance of Certificates of Conformity (CoC) in exporting countries, as well as checks at specified border points in Iraq. For details on the program consult www.exports-to-iraq.com
