What is INMETRO certification
INMETRO is the Brazilian Accreditation Body responsible for the development of Brazilian national standards. Most of Brazil's product standards are based on IEC and ISO standards, and manufacturers who need to export their products to Brazil should refer to these two sets of standards when designing products. Products that meet Brazilian standards and other technical requirements must be accompanied by a mandatory INMETRO logo and an accredited third-party certification body to enter the Brazilian market.

Voluntary certification can be applied without first filing an application at the INMETRO accredited laboratory.
