Introduction:

STANDART VA METROLOGIYA is the national agency of Uzbekistan responsible for standardization, metrology, and certification. It operates as a state body under the Cabinet of Ministers of the Republic of Uzbekistan. Its main functions include developing and implementing national standards, ensuring the uniformity and accuracy of measurements across various sectors, and providing certification services for products, services, and management systems.
