About the PCA program in Oman
Goods falling within specific regulated product categories must be certified for conformity to the country’s technical regulations and standards, or their approved equivalent.
A Certificate of Conformity is required for smooth customs clearance of consignments at destination ports and borders, and to ensure compliance with Omani technical regulations and regional standards.
- We work with exporters and importers to help them demonstrate compliance and issue a Certificate of Conformity, which:
- Gives access to Oman’s marketplace
- Avoids delays in customs
- Reduces potential losses from the import of non-compliant products
- Depending on the certification route, we provide one or a combination of the following interventions:
- Assessment of the adequacy of designs of the regulated products and their compliance with the implemented Omani regulations for LVE
- Sampling, testing and analysis in accredited laboratories approved by the DGSM
- Registration of products on the DGSM system
- Issuance of the Omani Certificate of Conformity for LVE products
