1、 Introduction to CCC Certification

CCC certification is equivalent to 3C certification. The full name of 3C certification is "Compulsory Product Certification System", which is a product qualification assessment system implemented by governments of various countries in accordance with laws and regulations to protect consumer personal safety and national security, strengthen product quality management. The so-called 3C certification refers to the mandatory product certification system in China, also known as China Compulsory Certification or CCC in English.

2、 Why do we need to undergo 3C certification?

In order to fulfill China's commitments to join the WTO, adapt to the needs of China's market economy development, and establish a technology evaluation mechanism that is in line with international standards, China has established the China Compulsory Certification System (CCC) based on four unified principles.

CCC is a complete or partial replacement of the original import and export commodity safety and quality licensing system (CCIB), mandatory supervision system for safety certification (Great Wall), network access license system, sales license system, and industrial product production license system.

The State Administration for Market Regulation, in accordance with the work responsibilities assigned by the State Council, issued the mandatory product certification system to the public on December 3, 2001. Since May 1, 2002, the first batch of certification applications for 132 types of products in 19 categories included in the mandatory product certification catalog have been accepted. On May 1st of this year, law enforcement supervision will begin on the certification of these products (now postponed to August 1st).

4、 Materials required for CCC certification

It should be noted that the 3C mark is not a quality mark, but only the most basic safety certification. Some of its indicators represent the safety and quality of the product, but it does not mean that the product's performance is equally excellent. Therefore, when purchasing a product, in addition to whether it has the 3C mark, other indicators are also important.
