The Kenya Bureau of Standards (KEBS) has signed a three-year contract with a Japanese company to verify the standards of second-hand vehicles, parts, and mobile devices in Japan, the United Kingdom, Thailand, South Africa, and the United Arab Emirates.

KEBSis tasked with encouraging the use of standards in business and industry, setting up or providing facilities for the examination and testing of goods and commodities, testing and calibrating precision instruments, gauges, and scientific apparatus, and determining their degree of accuracy by comparison with standards approved by the Minister on the Council’s recommendation, and to issue certificates in this regard.
