Brazil’s Ministry of Development, Industry, Trade and Services/National Institute of Metrology, Quality and Technology published an amendment to
Ordinance No. 301/2021, which was originally published in 2021, on August 9, 2023.
This ordinance contains multiple provisions relating to pacifiers, including requirements for:
– Conformity assessment
