As a subcontractor of KSO SCISI, Cotecna will carry out verification and surveys of all iron or steel of Japanese and Korean origin arriving in Indonesia and covered under the Trade Minister's Decree of 11 June 2009.
This will include administration and field verification to provide information such as country of origin data and the description of the goods, the quality and type, the date of shipment and port of destination.
