## ICGLR Certificate Application: Securing Compliance for Mineral Exports

Apply for an ICGLR certificate to demonstrate your commitment to responsible mineral sourcing and legal compliance in the Great Lakes Region.

## Why Apply for an ICGLR Certificate?

An ICGLR (International Conference on the Great Lakes Region) certificate is mandatory for exporting minerals from the Great Lakes Region. This certification validates that your minerals are conflict-free, ethically sourced, and compliant with international trade regulations, opening access to global markets that demand transparency and due diligence.

## What is the ICGLR Certificate Application Process?

The ICGLR certificate application ensures that mineral exports meet regional certification standards. Applicants must provide comprehensive documentation about the mineral's origin, chain of custody, and compliance with due diligence requirements. The certificate serves as internationally recognized proof of legitimate and responsible mineral trade.

## Requirements for ICGLR Certificate Application

To successfully apply for an ICGLR certificate, you must provide the following information:

- Company Details: Valid company registration and tax identification for the exporting entity.
- Mineral Information: Type, quantity (in kilograms), and purity percentage of minerals being exported.
- Origin Documentation: Proof of mineral origin including mine site location and zone of extraction.
- Destination Details: Complete information about the registered destination country and importing party.
- Chain of Custody: Documentation tracking the mineral from extraction through processing to export point.

All information must be accurate and verifiable. Incomplete or false information will result in application rejection.

## ICGLR Certificate Validity and Compliance

Once issued, an ICGLR certificate is valid for 90 days from the date of issuance. Exporters must ensure shipment occurs within this validity period. The certificate must accompany the mineral shipment and be presented at customs checkpoints for verification.

## Common Application Issues to Avoid

When applying for an ICGLR certificate, be aware of these common mistakes:

- Incomplete or inaccurate company registration information.
- Mismatched mineral quantities or purity percentages.
- Insufficient chain of custody documentation.
- Invalid or unregistered destination country details.
- Missing origin zone classification.
