Gas compliance certificates go digital

27/06/2023 - By Tiffany Mare

In terms of Regulation 17(3) of the Pressure Equipment Regulations a gas compliance certificate must be issued after completion of a gas installation, modification, alteration or change of user or ownership. This means that a gas compliance certificate is required for a property transfer to take place.
Due to the increase in certification-related fraud, gas practitioners will now be issuing digital gas compliance certificates. Gas Certificates issued by paper will not be considered valid as from 1 April 2023.
We would like to encourage our clients not to accept paper gas compliance certificates dated after 1 April 2023 and to confirm the certificates validity by visiting www.saqccgas.co.za.
