Sri Lanka Standards Institution Act 1984

Once the institution publishes a notice about a certification mark, no person may apply that mark to a commodity or product without a permit. The commodity or product must also comply with the relevant standard specification or be made in line with it. The institution pays no tax on its income or profits and no stamp duty on its instruments. The minister may, with the finance minister's agreement, exempt the institution from customs duty on goods it imports or buys.
