Fumigation Certificate

A fumigation certificate is the official document proving that a property, facility or transport unit has undergone professional pest control treatment. At Fucesa we carry out the service and issue the corresponding certificate in compliance with Mexican standard NOM-256-SSA1-2012, so your operation can demonstrate it to auditors, clients and health authorities.

With more than 40 years of experience in pest control, we serve transport and logistics companies, food plants, warehouses, businesses and institutions that need documented backing for their sanitation program. The certificate is not a standalone formality: it backs a treatment that was diagnosed, applied and verified by trained personnel.

What the certificate we issue includes

Every certificate documents the information an auditor or authority may require:

• Details of the service provider and its health licence.
• Identification of the property, facility or transport unit treated.
• Target pests and the diagnosis made before application.
• Pesticides used, along with their registration with the health authority.
• Application method used and areas treated.
• Service date and validity of the document.
• Name and signature of the technical supervisor, plus post-treatment recommendations.

Who needs a fumigation certificate

This document is requested either by regulation or as a requirement from their own clients by:

• Transport and logistics: fleets, containers, dry vans and delivery units. See our treatment for transport service.
• Food industry: processing plants, industrial kitchens, catering and distribution centres.
• Exporters and importers: shipments that must prove absence of pests at customs.
• Warehouses and storage facilities: protecting raw materials and finished goods.
• Restaurants, hotels and retail: health inspections and brand audits.
• Schools, clinics and hospitals: hygiene protocols usually combined with disinfection and sanitization.
• Suppliers in tenders: dossiers that require current proof of pest control.

How to request your certificate

• Contact and diagnosis: we inspect the property or units and identify pests and critical points.
• Work plan: we define the method, pesticides and safety measures based on how the space is used.
• Application: we carry out the treatment with registered products and protective equipment.
• Verification: we assess results and adjust the program if the case calls for it.
• Certificate delivery: we issue the document together with maintenance recommendations.

Validity and renewal

Validity depends on the type of facility, the treatment applied and what your auditor or client requires, and it is always stated on the document. In food, transport and export operations it is common to keep a recurring program so the certificate never shows as expired during an inspection. We define the right frequency with you based on your operation's risk.
