Ethiopia: common blockers in the PVoC / CoC process
In Ethiopia, the PVoC / CoC most often trips on document consistency and inspection timing.

Key points
- Certificates usually cannot be issued after departure, and used equipment is also covered; allow time for inspection when booking.
- Check whether the product is on the import control list.
- This compiles public rules for pre-shipment checks; applicable categories, inspection bodies and documents are confirmed by the destination authority and the importer.
