CCC Publication: Article about CCC certification published in German journal “Automobil Industrie”

25. November 2013

With the ever growing hunger for foreign products and the money to pay for them, the Chinese market has become very important for the automotive industry. Understandably, nearly every car manufacturer is focusing more and more on getting their products into China. The only way to legally export a vehicle to China is to obtain CCC certification (China Compulsory Certificate).

The CCC certification process with the Chinese certification authority CQC (China Quality Certification Centre) or CCAP (China Certification Centre for Automotive Products) is needed to deliver to the Chinese market without restrictions. It is important to note that these regulations apply not only the certification of complete vehicles but also affect the automotive suppliers that provide components and spare parts for their customers in China. The relevant regulations are defined in the Chinese National GB Standards (Chinese: Guobiao), which identify the CCC requirement of the vehicle parts and what to which criteria they have to be tested. After the successful CCC certification components and spare parts can export their certified products to China without any risks of delay at Chinese customs.

On November 13th, 2013 Mr. Julian Busch, CEO of China Certification Corporation, has published an article about the CCC certification for automotive parts and complete vehicles. It can be found on the web pages of the German journal “Automobil Industrie”, a professional journal for executives in automotive industry.
The article “China Compulsory Certificate für Automobilteile und Gesamtfahrzeuge” (“China Compulsory Certificate for automotive parts and complete vehicles”) describes the certification process and its challenges.
The article points out that a CCC certification can be completed with professional support within only a few months. The certification process can fast-tracked with careful planning and attention to detail. Thorough preparation of the application documents and the supporting documentation, and close communications with the Chinese test laboratories and Chinese certifying authorities will ensure a successful certification. The article is available online here (only in German language).
