The CE marking (an acronym for the French Conformite Europeenne) certifies that a product has met EU health, safety, and environmental requirements.
Head of the National Standard Organization of Iran Mehdi Eslampanah said on the sideline of the general assembly of the Standards and Metrology Institute for the Islamic Countries (SMIIC) that cooperation between Ankara and Tehran concerning standard issue will help improve trade ties.
Eslampanah underlined that goals determined by presidents from Turkiye and Iran should be facilitated via cooperation between Turkish and Iranian standard organizations.
Naming Turkiye as an important target market for Iranian tradesmen, he said that collaboration in a bid to remove obstacles such as CE marking is a big step towards facilitating bilateral trade.
The Iranian official called on his Turkish counterpart Mahmut Sami Şahin to play more active role in achieving preplanned objectives of the Economic Cooperation Organization (ECO) and Regional Insurance Services Company (RISCOM) in order to pave the way for regional countries to take advantage.
Head of Turkiye Standard Institution, for his part, expressed readiness for joint venture in terms of CE marking as well as improving regional trade.
The two standard organizations of Iran and Turkiye can coordinate in order to develop their standard levels to adapt to the European standard.
The 17th general assembly of the SMIIC opened on Tuesday. The Standards and Metrology Institute for the Islamic Countries is the only international entity, which is acceptable by 57 member states of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) in terms of compiling standards concerning Islamic permissible issues (Halal).
The National Standard Organization of Iran joined the SMIIC in 2015 and played an active role in this institute.
