The National Certification and Accreditation Administration (CNCA) has released the Trial Implementation Rules for Compulsory Product Certification of Mobile Power Supplies, Lithium-Ion Batteries, and Battery Packs under document number CNCA-C09-02:2025. These new rules will take effect on August 15, 2025, and will replace the corresponding provisions previously outlined in CNCA-C09-01:2023 for the applicable product categories.
Scope of Application
The updated certification rules apply to the following product categories:
Mobile power supplies (e.g., power banks)
Lithium-ion batteries
Lithium-ion battery packs
Products falling within this scope must meet applicable GB/T and GB national standards, covering:
Electrical safety
Mechanical integrity
Environmental performance
Labeling and marking requirements
Certification Framework
The certification model consists of:
Type Testing
Initial Factory Inspection
Post-Certification Surveillance
Type Testing
All type testing must be performed at CNCA-designated laboratories to verify compliance with referenced standards.
Factory Inspection
Initial inspections will evaluate:
Quality management systems
Production consistency
Alignment with technical documentation
🧩 Unit Division
Products will be grouped into certification units based on design, function, and key components, ensuring consistency in the evaluation process across similar products.
Certification Procedure
Application Submission
Technical specifications
Design drawings
Safety and performance test reports
Production quality control documentation
Type Testing
Conducted by authorized labs to ensure compliance with applicable standards
Factory Inspection
On-site audits reviewing quality systems and testing capabilities
Evaluation & Certification Decision
Certification bodies will issue CCC certificates upon successful evaluation
Manufacturer Classification and Compliance Monitoring
The CNCA introduces a classification system to assess manufacturers and determine the frequency of ongoing surveillance. Key criteria include:
Maturity of the quality management system
Compliance history
Product risk profile
Ongoing compliance will be monitored through:
Annual factory audits
Market surveillance
Random product sampling from factories or retail markets
Higher-risk products or lower-rated manufacturers may be subject to increased inspection frequency.
CCC Marking Requirements
Certified manufacturers must apply the China Compulsory Certification (CCC) mark in accordance with CNCA guidelines. Any variation in the mark’s design must be pre-approved. Unauthorized use or alteration of the CCC mark may result in penalties or enforcement actions.
