What it covers

Cigarette conformity is built on two test routes — an accredited test report for the tobacco raw materials to GSO 597, and a pesticide-residue analysis (in P.P.M.) to the same standard — plus a separate ECAS certificate for the product label. A physical product sample of 20 boxes is submitted for assessment. We arrange the testing, compile the additives list and manage the label certificate so the dossier clears in one pass.

Frequently asked questions

What testing do cigarettes need?

An accredited test report for the tobacco raw materials to GSO 597, plus a pesticide-residue analysis in parts-per-million to the same standard. We arrange both through accredited laboratories.

Do I need to submit physical samples?

Yes — a product sample of 20 boxes is required for the assessment, alongside the test reports and additives list.

Is the label a separate certificate?

Yes. A separate ECAS certificate for the product label is required in addition to the product testing. We manage both within one project.

Does TheCorpBridge issue the certificate?

No. MoIAT and its Notified Bodies issue the certificate. We prepare the testing, samples and dossier and manage the MoIAT submission for you.
