Obtain a SCSR compliance certificate for your products with TÜV Rheinland

Botswana flag

To reduce the risk of unsafe and substandard products entering the Botswana market the Botswana Bureau of Standards (BOBS), oversees Standards (Compulsory Standards) Regulations (SCSR) program, which has become enforceable starting from 1st April, 2024.

According to the SCSR program, all regulated products exported to Botswana must undergo inspection in the country of origin and receive a Certification of Conformity, attesting their compliance with the established requirements. As a BOBS-recognized inspection body, our Certificates of Conformity (CoCs) are accepted as a basis for the SCSR compliance certificates.

Thanks to our conformity assessment services, you can rest assured that your products comply with Botwana’s regulatory requirements.

Find out how we can help you get a SCSR compliance certificate for your products.
