One of the requirements to be granted the Import Commodity Clearance (ICC) Certification under the Product Certification Scheme (PCS) is a product test report to determine if the subject imported products are compliant to relevant Philippine National Standard (PNS). The test report is issued by a testing laboratory recognized by the DTI-BPS. The DTI-BPS has the same testing facility where importers may have their sample product tested.

The DTI-BPS Testing Laboratory houses a number of testing equipment capable of testing electrical, electronic, chemical, mechanical, and consumer products. It also has an internal calibration laboratory to calibrate its test and measuring instruments to ensure that the test results are accurate and reliable.

The facility is likewise utilized in performing necessary tests during research and data gathering in the DTI-BPS’ standards development as well as research and development of industries.

The DTI-BPS Testing Laboratory is now in its new location at the CMDC Compound, Carlos Trinidad Ave., Salawag, Dasmariñas City, Cavite (near TUP). To schedule your products for testing, please contact the Product Testing Division (PTD) at (63) 0917.8064605 / (63) 0917.8223557.
