At the end of December, 2020, multiple international certification companies have issued regulatory updates, advising that AZS Certificates that cover EMC and Safety aspects of the product in Azerbaijan are no longer sufficient to prove full compliance for newly imported products and that a separate EMC Approval must be sought with an immediate effect.
Considering no official announcements were found in a public domain, ELEOS Team have conducted an investigation into this subject by consulting with local partners and Accreditation Authority of Azerbaijan, and can confirm that there were no recent publication or changes in regards to Type Approval legislation in Azerbaijan. This means that a single AZS Type Approval covering EMC and Safety remains to be sufficient to this date.
Notwithstanding the above, it is understood that following recent speculations, discussions are being held between the regulators on whether to consider a need for a split of AZS Approval or not. If an official decision is reached in this regard, ELEOS will keep everyone informed.
