Reminder
Operationalization of Bilateral Cooperation Agreements (BCAs) of Bureau of
Indian Standards (BIS) with Brazil
|
|
Dear Members,
This is in continuation of our circulars dated 08/04/2019 and 31/05/2019 informing you that we have received communication from the Under Secretary, FT-LAC Division, Department of Commerce updating us about agreement that Bureau of Indian Standard (BIS) entered into Bilateral Cooperation Agreement (BCA) with Brazil on 24th October, 2016.
Please note that this Agreement provides for utilization of services of the other party for conformity assessment procedures in the territory of other party for operation of each other’s product certification schemes. A copy of the BCA is once again shared for your reference.
In order to operationalise the said Agreement, both sides are required to exchange list of products and entities to establish the requirement of product certification. While the Brazilian Agency of Technical Standards (ANBT) has already been requested, we are also required to share list of specific products where our exporters are facing certification / registration related problems with Brazil.
In this regard, Council has also been requested to send list of specific products where our exporters are facing certification/ registration related problems with Brazil.
We still await responses from the members in this regard. The information had to be sent to DoC by 15/04/2019. Since we didn’t receive responses, DoC has provided additional time till 17/06/2019 to revert.
Members are therefore once again requested to kindly send their replies to the council by 15/06/2019 on our e-mail ids ed@chemexcil.gov.in, deepak.gupta@chemexcil.gov.in, adreach@chemexcil.gov.in & rodelhi@chemexcil.gov.in .
Your timely replies will enable us examine, collate the responses and submit to FT-LAC, DoC for consideration.
Thanking You,
Yours Faithfully,
(S. G. BHARADI)
EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
