Added: (Mon Aug 09 2010)

Pressbox (Press Release) - Pre-Shipment Inspection is of Conformity Verification. This Program is intended to provide safety for citizens of Lebanon and improve environmental health protection.



Pre shipment inspection activities are all activities relating to the verification of the quality, the quantity, the price, including currency exchange rate and financial terms, and/or the customs classification of goods to be exported to the territory of the user Member.



The pre-shipment verification program facilitates import customs transactions, minimizes further inspection and testing on arrival, thereby reducing the overall cost, possible delay of customs release and risk to re-export due to non-conformity of the goods. In order to confirm that products conform to the relevant standards, Exporters can provide copies of certificates or test reports that show compliance evidence.



Certificates or test reports issued by an accredited organization or laboratory are usually accepted. The Agreement applies to pre shipment inspection (PSI) mandated by an importing government Member where such inspection is carried out on the territory of an exporter Member. The importing government Member is referred to as the "user Member". The Preamble refers only to developing countries as users of PSI. Pre-Shipment inspection has been made mandatory for all importable goods except those exempted by the government from the programme.
