Standards provide technical specifications (guidelines or requirements) for products, production processes, and services. If used consistently, they ensure quality, safety, efficiency, reduced costs and ease companies\u2019 integration into national as well as global value chains and trade. The Royal Government of Cambodia supports standardization as a powerful and strategic tool for the improvement of the efficiency of Cambodian businesses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To prove that their products follow the respective National Standards, Micro Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) and particularly medium enterprises, must apply for a standard certificate, related to their industry or trade, through the Institute of Standards of Cambodia (ISC). This section will provide you with information to help you ensure that your business follows the Standards of Cambodia (SC), the International Standards, and the Technical Regulations of Cambodia. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
What is the ISC doing?<\/strong> <\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The Institute of Standards of Cambodia (ISC) pays special attention to standardization as standards can influence many areas of public concern such as the competitiveness of the industry, the functioning of the market, the protection of the environment and human health, as well as innovation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The Institute of Standards of Cambodia (ISC) is the body responsible for the preparation of National Standards and guidelines for products, commodities, materials, services, and operations. ISC, as a correspondent member of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), and can sell and adopt ISO standards nationally. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Certification by the Science Technology and Innovation National Laboratory (STINL)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n In terms of services provided to Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) and particularly to medium enterprises, ISC provides testing services through its Science Technology and Innovation National Laboratory (STINL), which is also the Cambodian Certification Body. The ISC and the STINL provide training and consulting services regarding standards such as ISO 9001, ISO 22000, Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP), Good Hygiene Practice (GHP), and Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP). Information about the regulations is free of charge. Standard documents are provided for a small fee for the copyright.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Institute of Standards of Cambodia (ISC) provides standard certification through testing and measurement to determine the quality and characteristics of products, based on national and international ISO standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For list of Standards, please click here<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n For more information about Standards, please check the official website of Institute of Standards of Cambodia <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Application of globally recognized measurements by the National Metrology Center of Cambodia (NMC)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Metrology is the science of measurements and establishes a common understanding of units such as size, length, weight and so on. It provides accuracy, quality, and safety to keep the market competitive and ensures that products can be compared worldwide. The Royal government of Cambodia supports metrology as a critical tool to promote innovation and industrial competitiveness by advancing the measurement science, standards, technology with international recognition. As member of international and regional organizations, the NMC can ratify the national standards with three distinctions as National Primary Standard, Secondary Standard and Working Standard. Under German Development Cooperation, with support of the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ)<\/a>, the NMC was partner of the regional project \u201cStrengthening the Quality Infrastructure in ASEAN<\/a>\u201d, implemented by the Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB)<\/a> between 2015 and 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Relevant for Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs), notably medium enterprises, NMC contributes to the implementation of a global measurement system that results in globally recognized certificates. The NMC also provides consultation and training services regarding the quality infrastructure (QI), measurement standards in calibration, measurement uncertainty, analytical methods of validation, and verification of test procedures as well as metrology registration<\/a>, verification<\/a>, calibration<\/a>, and license services. The application form and documents requirements are different for each service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The National Metrology Center of Cambodia (NMC)<\/strong> is responsible for all of the metrological work imposed by the Metrology Law of Cambodia and ensures that metrology contributes to fair competition, quality of products, strengthening of innovation, reduction of technical barriers, and the protection of the environment and public well-being to support the economic growth in Cambodia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
