Chinese exporters explored conformity assessment requirements across key African and Middle Eastern markets.
Cotecna successfully hosted a VOC Conformity Assessment Webinar on 24 June, bringing together Chinese manufacturers and exporters seeking to better understand certification requirements across Africa and the Middle East.
Delivered in Chinese by Renee ZENG, Senior VOC Account Manager at Cotecna China, the online session provided practical guidance on conformity assessment requirements and market access procedures for exporters serving multiple international markets.
The webinar focused on certification requirements and conformity assessment programmes applicable to several key destinations, including:
Participants gained insights into the main stages of the conformity assessment process, including document review, product testing, inspection activities and factory audits where required.
The session also highlighted the practical benefits of compliance, including improved quality control before shipment, smoother customs clearance, and the reduction of risks associated with shipment delays, storage charges and product returns.
The interactive Q&A session generated strong engagement, with attendees raising questions related to certification procedures, inspection requirements, document preparation and programme updates across different markets.
As regulatory requirements continue to evolve, understanding destination-specific compliance obligations remains essential for exporters seeking efficient and compliant access to international markets.
Through webinars and technical knowledge-sharing initiatives, Cotecna continues to provide practical support to exporters, helping them navigate regulatory requirements and expand into new markets with confidence.
