How can I get information on foreign regulations, standards, or certification requirement for my product?
The Country Commercial Guides (CCGs) examine each country's trade regulations and investment practices, and present a comprehensive look at the commercial environment in various countries through economic, political and market analyses. Contact the Trade Information Center at 1-800-USA-TRAD(E). TIC trade specialists, along with some of the industry specialists in the Department of Commerce, maintain information on foreign country regulations, standards, and certification systems and/or a contact list of organizations that can help you obtain that information. Also check the International Trade Administration website, http://www.ita.doc.gov Use the link to 'Regions and Countries,' 'Industries,' or the 'Trade Information Center.' The National Center for Standards & Certification Information (NCSCI) of the Department of Commerce provides information on U.S. and foreign conformity assessment procedures and standards for non-agricultural products. The NCSCI also provides a translation service for foreign standards, for which there is a charge. NCSCI staff responds to requests for information by identifying relevant standards and/or regulations for your product. The requester is referred to the appropriate standards-developing organization or private sector organization for additional technical information and/or copies of the document. The NCSCI does not provide copies of the standards. For more information, contact NCSCI at (301) 975-4040 or visit their web site at http://ts.nist.gov/ts/htdocs/210/217/bro.htm Also visit: The International Standards Organization (ISO) (http://www.iso.ch). The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) (http://www.ansi.org).
