Navigating Mexico Electrical Safety Certification Requirements

In Compliance Magazine -

Mexico’s regulatory compliance process for electrical safety requires constant attention because of the number of safety standards potentially applicable, exemptions based on use, limited validity periods, provision of samples for local testing, comprehensive labeling and warranty requirements, and the need to coordinate the efforts of test labs, Certification Bodies, customs house brokers, and the importer/certificate holder. By better understanding the key players and documents that make up the regulatory system, manufacturers can more easily and successfully navigate compliance.

Preventing Liability from Foreign‑Made Products

In Compliance Magazine -

Foreign manufacturers sometimes intentionally or unintentionally cut corners on safety and quality because they are less likely to be held liable in the U.S. for problems created by their products. U.S. manufacturers who buy from foreign companies must alter their relationships with such manufacturers to account for this possibility and enhance the safety of their products to protect themselves better if problems do occur.
