A good understanding of Pre-Export Verification of Conformity (PVoC) services is essential for businesses involved in exporting regulated goods.
With the Petroleum Authority Uganda (PAU) program set to regulate specialist equipment and materials used in upstream and midstream oil and gas activities, businesses must comply with PVoC assessments before exporting to Uganda.
HQTS, in collaboration with the Uganda National Bureau of Standards (UNBS), has been contracted by PAU to provide PVoC services, ensuring a smoother and faster conformity process.
This complimentary webinar will offer valuable insights into the PAU PVoC Uganda program, covering everything from application and operational procedures to the certification stages, including document review, inspection, and issuance of the final certificate of conformity.
