ECAS / MOIAT Certification

What Is ECAS / MOIAT Certification?

ECAS (Emirates Conformity Assessment Scheme) is the UAE’s national product conformity certification system managed by the Emirates Authority for Standardization and Metrology (ESMA) under the Ministry of Industry and Advanced Technology (MOIAT). ECAS certification ensures that products placed on the UAE market comply with the UAE’s mandatory national standards and safety requirements.

ECAS is the UAE equivalent of globally recognized conformity marking systems and applies to a broad range of consumer and industrial products. Importers, manufacturers, and distributors supplying goods to the UAE are required to register their products under ECAS before those products can legally enter and be sold in the UAE market.

Standard ECAS certification timelines range from 3 to 8 weeks depending on the product category and testing requirements. We offer expedited options for clients with urgent market entry deadlines.

Q: Is ECAS the same as G-Mark?
