The National Center for Standards and Certification Information (NCSCI) provides information about foreign standards and certification systems and requirements.

In addition to providing comprehensive information on existing standards and certification requirements, NCSCI offers “Notify U.S.” (www.tsapps.nist.gov/notifyus/data/index). This free, web-based e-mail subscription service offers U.S. citizens, industries, and organizations an opportunity to review and comment on proposed foreign technical regulations that can affect their businesses and their access to international markets. By subscribing to the Notify U.S. service, you can receive by e-mail notifications about drafts or changes to domestic and foreign technical regulations for manufactured products.
