Standards Authority issues directives for renewable energy import exemptions
Sana'a - Saba: The Yemeni Authority for Standardization, Metrology, and Quality Control has issued a circular to chambers of commerce and importers of renewable energy components, detailing requirements for obtaining customs exemptions. The directive applies to key renewable energy inputs, including solar panels, energy storage batteries, voltage inverters, power inverters, and solar water heaters. To qualify for customs exemption, importers must submit a formal technical consultation request to the Authority at least 20 days before the shipment arrives at any customs center or port. This request, officially stamped by the importer, must include a detailed technical file of the imported items. For high-risk lithium battery cells, the Authority mandates that importers provide certificates of conformity and inspection reports from accredited bodies, adhering to the IEC 62619 standard. Documentation proving the product's compliance with performance specifications is also required. The Authority explicitly stated it will not be responsible for delays or impounding of shipments if importers fail to comply with these instructions, holding importers fully accountable. Looking ahead, the Authority announced that technical consultation requests will soon be fully accessible through the "Tasheel" e-services platform. This move aims to streamline procedures and automate transactions, making it easier and faster for importers to access services. These measures are part of the Authority's ongoing efforts to simplify the process of obtaining customs exemptions for renewable energy components, aligning with its mandated role in facilitating such exemptions under relevant laws and regulations.
