We are appointed by the Uganda National Bureau of Standards (UNBS) to provide Pre-Export Verification of Conformity (PVoC) services for general goods.
HQTS is also fully authorized by the Petrolium Authority of Uganda (PAU) to issue Pre-Shipment Verification of Conformity ( PAU PVoC) certificates for Oil and Gas projects.
The Uganda Pre-Export Verification of Conformity is a programme operated by the Uganda Bureau of Standards (UNBS) that regulates the import of certain products. This program is designed to ensure that the product being exported to Uganda meets certain quality standards and will not adversely affect the health or safety of people in Uganda.
The program covers 11 product categories and requires that every regulated product must have a Certificate of Conformity (CoC) certification issued by appointed inspection agents in the country of export.
The process of certification will vary depending on the product category and the type of exports. There are four different certification routes. Contact us to learn which route applies to you.
The Uganda PvOC will give you access to the Ugandan marketplace and is a requirement for importing regulated products into the country. Failure to comply with these regulations can result in delays, penalties, or the shipment being returned.

The Uganda Petroleum Authority (PAU) and the Uganda National Bureau of Standards have implemented a Pre-Export Verification of Conformity (PVoC) Program for specialised equipment and materials used in oil and gas projects.
The program covers specialised equipment and materials used in oil and gas projects under the PAU Authority incluying the Tilenga, Kingfisher and EAPOC projects.
