Manufacturers and importers with pending or planned type approval submissions across Africa should be aware that processing activities in several markets are expected to be impacted during the week of 25 to 29 May 2026, coinciding with the Eid al-Adha celebrations.
Affected Countries This Week
The following countries are expected to experience delays to type approval processing due to reduced engineer availability throughout the festive week:
- Morocco
- Cameroon
- Niger
- Nigeria
- Senegal
- Burkina Faso
What This Means for Your Submissions
This is a temporary disruption specific to the Eid al-Adha period. Companies with active submissions or applications planned for this week should expect slower processing times and limited updates from regulators. We recommend factoring this into any upcoming product launch or market entry timelines.
