TC11-2023-02 Revision of GB Standards for Motor Vehicles and Parts in China
25. January 2024On November 9, 2023, the CNCA Automotive and Parts Technical Expert Group (TC11) published a technical resolution on the “Modification and Mandatory Certification Standards for Automobiles and Auto Parts Products” (TC11-2023-02). Affected GB standards are e.g. GB 15084-2022 (Motor vehicles-Device for indirect vision-Requirement of performance and installation), GB/T 4501-2023 (Laboratory test methods for truck and bus tires capabilities).
The majority of automotive parts require CCC certification in order to be approved for import and sale in China.
The resolution contains the following provisions of the product standards to be revised for the automotive industry (see below, Table 1):
1). New certifications will be implemented according to the new standard requirements (including the requirements of the implementation date).
2). If there is no new test item for a revised standard, an already certified product does not need to be tested separately for renewal, the certificate can be updated directly according to the new standard. If there is a new test item, a differential test must be performed. The renewal of a certificate can be issued after passing the exam.
For certified products that were delivered, sold on the market and/or discontinued before the introduction of the new version of the standard, it is not necessary to have the certificate retested and reissued in accordance with the new version of the standard.
3). CCC certificates of affected products that have already been issued may continue to be used for 1 year from the date of publication of this resolution.
If a clear date has been set for the standard as the transition period for the implementation of the modification and renewal of the certificate, then it shall apply to the holder, even if it is longer than 1 year after the publication of this resolution.
If the specified implementation period is less than 1 year after the publication of this resolution, the holder of the certificate may still complete the modification and renewal of the certificate within 1 year from the publication of the resolution in accordance with the relevant standard.
Companies can carry out the renewal of certificates in advance according to their own possibilities.
4). After the expiry of the established deadlines for updating the standards, the requirements of the “Regulation on the Administration of Mandatory Product Certification” of the certification authority shall apply to certificates. The comments on the new CCC certification standards are presented in Table 2 (see below).
