IDG provides assistance to countries to strengthen their SPS and TBT regimes to simultaneously assure health and safety standards as well as streamlining trade requirements so these regulations do not impede trade. We provide training and assistance on reducing trade formalities, harmonization and mutual recognition of test results and certification related to SPS and TBT, including compliance checklists with ISO 17025, risk-based food control, food traceability, and reliance on manufacturer’s declaration for low-medium risk products. We arrange technical roundtables and also public-private dialogue on these issues.
We work in SPS with the Indo-Pacific region to conduct better regulatory reform and trade facilitation.
