Order
Order setting the conditions for conformity assessment against standards
Summary
This order specifies how conformity assessment of products against standards applies in Gabon. It implements the national standardisation system and the conformity assessment arrangements run by the Gabonese standards agency (AGANOR). It underpins the Gabonese conformity assessment programme (PROGEC), which requires, for many imported goods, a certificate of conformity obtained before shipment from an approved inspection body. The World Trade Organization mentions it in its 2023 trade policy review as one of the texts notified under technical barriers to trade. For an importer, this order is the reference to check before shipping goods covered by the programme.
