Azerbaijan will issue all certificates with QR codes, the Head of the State Service for Antimonopoly Control and Supervision of the Consumer Market under the Ministry of Economy Mammad Abbasbayli said during a press conference on the results of activities for 2023, Trend reports.
A QR code on measuring instruments will inspire consumer confidence, he explained.
