POP CERTIFICATION

POP Certification: A Complete Guide to Regulatory Compliance

POP Certification is a regulatory compliance process conducted online where manufacturers, importers and exporters can electronically file documents about the products they manufacture and receive electronic approvals by the regulatory bodies. The digital POP certification also guarantees transparency, traceability, and shorter approval schedules.

Products can be rejected, customs held, fined, or banned in the market without valid POP approval. Businesses can have easy and fast market penetration with professional help of a POP certification consultant.
