PRODUCT SAFETYMexico Combines Product Safety Certification with Import Regulations. Only Mexican Corporations may receive Product Safety Certification known as NOM Certificates. NOM Certificates are not transferable. Certificates have a one year life and must be renewed annually. Mexico does NOT recognize any other Safety Approval. Only NOM Certificate Holders may import products requiring Product Safety Approval (NOM Certification). It is customary for Significant Distributors to require NOM Certificates be issue in their name. Testing - Product Safety Testing will be conducted on the representative of the family of products. Mexico's regulations and the Certification Agencies have established criteria for " Families of Products". [ NCC's analysis will indicate the Representative Product to be Tested and the Family Member products that may be listed on the same Certificate.] NOM CERTIFYING AGENCIESTwo Certification agencies have been authorized in Mexico. Each agency has their own list of products that they will certify. THE PROCESS TIME LINE - PRODUCT SAFETY
