Taiwan Type Approval

Taiwan has Type Approval requirements for certain types of products, including radio products and general products like textile products, plastics, toys etc…

These ensure that these products meet specific safety, quality, and regulatory standards before they can be sold or imported into Taiwan.

For radio products, the National Communications Commission (NCC) in Taiwan is responsible for regulating and certifying radio frequency devices. Manufacturers and importers must obtain NCC certification to demonstrate compliance with Taiwan’s technical standards and regulations for radio frequency emissions, ensuring that the products do not interfere with other electronic devices or pose risks to public health and safety.

Similarly, products  intended for sale or distribution in Taiwan must comply with safety standards and regulations set by the Taiwan government. The Bureau of Standards, Metrology and Inspection (BSMI) is the agency responsible for enforcing these regulations.  Manufacturers and importers are required to obtain BSMI certification or apply for conformity assessment to ensure that their products meet the necessary safety requirements and do not pose any hazards to consumers.

The Taiwan Type Approval involves testing, inspection, and documentation to ensure compliance with applicable standards. Once the products have obtained the necessary certifications, they can be legally sold and distributed within Taiwan’s market, providing assurance to consumers that the products meet the required safety and quality standards.

It’s important to note that the BSMI mark is separate from the NCC type approval process. While NCC type approval focuses on the radio frequency and communication aspects of electronic products, the BSMI mark specifically addresses safety and quality requirements.

Manufacturers and importers should ensure that their products meet both the NCC type approval and BSMI mark requirements, if applicable, to ensure compliance with the regulations and successful market entry in Taiwan.
