Analysis of related issues about standard version change

1. What should I do with the old certificate that has been issued before the standard is updated?

A standard update is required to be submitted. That is, the holder of the certificate, that is, the applicant, directly submits a certificate renewal application with the applicant agency (the enterprise needs to complete the standard application before the deadline for the renewal)

2. What should I do if the certificate of the old version of the standard is already in the issuance stage?

First of all, you need to see when the certificate is issued. If the certificate has not been issued before July 1, it will be called back and re-do it according to the new standard, and the corresponding update fee may be increased according to the actual situation.

3. Do more than one CCC certificate in the factory need to be changed? Are all tests required?

All certificates need to be changed and the test needs to be assessed against the original CCC report.

4. If the 3C certification is still in the application process, can it be replaced with the 2021 version of the application?

Yes, the enterprise can communicate with the applicant agency to change the new standard to apply, but it needs to be issued after July 1.

5. Will there be any costs associated with changing and updating standards?

Changes to updated standards will incur change fees (assessing the need for additional testing based on product category). If the product is in category 08 (audio and video products), it is necessary to supplement the difference test of the EMC GB/T 9254.1-2021 standard (the specific test fee is subject to the laboratory statement); if the product is in category 09 or 16, it will be Reporting fee for change reports (in the case of products without telecommunication ports).
