Argentina Expands Battery Certification by Authorizing Additional Institutions

Published /Argentina

Background

Due to INTI’s unique position as the sole authorized institution for battery certification in Argentina, conflicts have arisen. As a result, the Ministry of Production has raised concerns regarding certification delays, which are causing significant economic harm to consumers.

New Developments

In response, the Ministry of Environment and Sustainable Development has authorized other organizations and institutions with the necessary technical and professional capacities to conduct the certification process. This change is formalized through Resolution 244/2018, effective April 20, 2018.

Authorized Organizations

Organizations such as IRAM, TÜV RHEINLAND, and others are now enabled to certify batteries.

Next Steps

If you wish to obtain your battery certification, please contact ORBIS.
