To further ensure consistent quality and safety of CCC certified automotive parts, the Chinese certification authorities have recently implemented a new system of product testing in China<\/strong>. The new regulations for \u201crandom test sampling\u201d<\/strong> empower the CQC<\/strong> (China Quality Certification Centre, Chinese: \u4e2d\u56fd\u8d28\u91cf\u8ba4\u8bc1\u4e2d\u5fc3), and CCAP<\/strong> (China Certification Centre for Automotive Products, Chinese: \u4e2d\u6c7d\u8ba4\u8bc1\u4e2d\u5fc3) to randomly select parts from a facilities certification scope and require additional testing in a Chinese test lab. The selection may be made prior to the annual follow up inspection, or during the audit itself.<\/p>\n

To date the regulation applies only to CCC certified automotive parts and includes the entire product range (interior trimming materials, headrests, seats, fuel tanks, etc.). You can find an overview of mandatory CCC automotive parts and the relevant GB Standards here<\/a><\/strong>.
\n\"CarIt is possible to apply for an exemption<\/strong> for parts that are very expensive to manufacture and that are only produced in small volumes, however the decision as to whether testing in China can really be avoided is entirely at the discretion of the CQC or the CCAP.<\/p>\n

Since May 2014, the Chinese certification bodies are executing random test sampling more frequently. It is important for automotive suppliers to take these random test sample costs into consideration and prepare for the possibility of higher costs in the future. The manufacturer is responsible for the associated costs and execution of the process, which can present a big challenge. To keep your time and effort as low as possible, we can assist you in managing your random sample tests.
