The International Organization for Legal Metrology

The International Organization of Legal Metrology (OIML) was established in 1955 in order to promote the global harmonization of legal metrology procedures. Since that time, the OIML has developed a worldwide technical structure that provides its Members with metrological guidelines for the elaboration of national and regional requirements concerning the manufacture and use of measuring instruments for legal metrology applications. The OIML is a treaty organization whose membership includes Member States, countries that participate in technical activities, and Corresponding Members, Countries that join the OIML as observers.
