The registration of products constitutes, in the form of the Law, the act by which Inmetro authorizes, subject to the existence of a Certificate of Compliance, the use of the Compliance Identification Label and the marketing of the product or input or the provision of the service. It revokes Inmetro Ordinance 512, 11 November 2016.
