Certification introduction

BSMI is the abbreviation of Bureau of Standards, Metrology and Inspection of the Standards Inspection Bureau of the Ministry of Economy of Taiwan.

According to the announcement of Taiwan's Ministry of Economy, since July 1, 2005, products entering Taiwan should be supervised in two aspects: electromagnetic compatibility and security. According to the different products, it can be divided into the following three certification methods:

Type approval batch-by-batch inspection

There are computer, cash register, analog or mixed automatic data processor, portable digital automatic data processor, other digital automatic data processor, other digital automatic data processor, digital processing unit except 8471.41 or 8471.49, terminal computer, point matrix list machine, laser list machine, chrysanthemum wheel list machine, other list machine, keyboard, image and so on. Scanners, other input or output units, special programmable calculators or word processors with memory energy, magnetic or optical readers, data input devices of input data processors, other automatic data processors belonging to Section 8471, automatic teller machines, continuous-current power supply (capacity not exceeding 10 KVA), and other continuous-current power supply Twenty-five products, such as electronic machines with translation or dictionary functions, cartographic tables with data processing systems, and cartographic machines with machines and data processing systems.

Verify login

Two products, electrostatic converter for automatic data processor and its subsidiary units and communication devices, and other switched power supply, have been changed from conformity statement inspection to commodity verification login.

Conformity Statement

1. There are pocket data machines, reproducing and displaying machines, electronic calculators (other than external power operators), electronic calculators with list devices, other electronic calculators, other calculators, hard disk drives, floppy disk drives, optical drives, other disk drives, other storage units, other automatic data processing units, etc. Seventeen items of parts and accessories of other 8471.10 class machines, such as type B computer motherboard and type B computer interpolation cards with I/O, were originally tested for conformity declaration.

2. The eight products of word processor, automatic typewriter, electric typewriter, other electric typewriters, blind point typewriters (those weighing less than 12 kilograms), blind point typewriters (those weighing more than 12 kilograms), non-electric typewriters (those weighing less than 12 kilograms) and other non-electric typewriters are reclassified as conformity statement (DoC) tests.

3. Seven items of electronic calculator (excluding external power operators), internal magnetic (optical) disc drive, computer motherboard and interpolation card are excluded from the scope of safety inspection.

Authentication mode

BSMI certification in Taiwan, China is mandatory. He has requirements for EMC and SAFETY. However, BSMI does not have factory inspection at present, but must act in accordance with the regulations of the Standards Bureau. Therefore, BSMI certification model is: product inspection + registration supervision.

Certified products

If your product falls within the following scope, you need to apply for validation to expand the domestic market:

1. Compulsory Commodity Inspection Marking (CI MARK): Electrical products (such as household appliances), electronic products (such as information equipment and entertainment audio-visual equipment), mechanical products (such as electric tools), chemical products (such as tires and toys).

2. Voluntary orthographic identification (CNS MARK): those who have orthographic identification on industrial products, building materials, wires, household appliances, locomotive parts, industrial raw materials, or competitors'products.

3. Voluntary Product Verification Marking (VPC MARK): Safety and Regulation Important Components, Digital Box, Lamp Holder, Battery Charger, Limited Harmful Substances, Lithium Battery, Vehicle Electromagnetic Compatibility, Sports Fitness Equipment, etc.

Application Form for Certification

BSMI application: There are three ways to apply at present.

Type recognition includes two types:

1. Type Recognition (EMC + Safety), since January 1, 2004, 178 kinds of electronic and electrical products need to apply for such recognition. Applicable criteria: EMC+Safety. Documents to be provided include (product type approval application, company or factory license, test report, technical documents for electromagnetic compatibility: photos, labels, components with electromagnetic interference, block diagrams and usage manuals, and technical documents for safety regulations). Certificate validity: three years, renewable once.2. EMC type approval (replacing the original EMC application) will be enforced from November 1, 2002. Applicable products: 61 electronic and electrical products only have EMI requirements, 124 electronic and electrical products only need EMI + safety report (if the product has safety requirements). Applicable criteria: only EMI. Documents to be provided are (EMC type approval applications, test reports, technical documents: photos, labels, components with EMC, block diagrams and use manuals).

II. Authentication and Registration

Enforcement date: not yet published, applicable standard: EMI + security. Documents to be provided include (product type approval application, company or factory license, test report, technical documents for electromagnetic compatibility: photos, labels, components with electromagnetic interference, block diagrams and usage manuals, as well as technical documents and safety regulations, etc.)

Statement of Conformity. Certificate validity: three years, renewable once

III. Conformity Statement

Enforcement date: 18 January 2002. Applicable products: 19 kinds of IT equipment components. Applicable standard: CNS 13438 (ONLY EMC). Documents to be provided are (compliance statement, test report, technical documents: photos, labels, components with electromagnetic interference, block diagram and use manual). No certificate.

For electronic and electrical products, the characteristics of the three application methods provided by the Bureau of Standards are as follows:

1. The compliance statement applies only to parts and components of some information technology equipment (refer to the product description on the website of the Bureau of Standard Inspection).

2. It is up to the manufacturer of product cost to apply for certification registration or type approval.

3. The difference between certification registration and type recognition lies in:

1. Inspection methods: If the product has been approved by the type, the inspection of customers will be simplified. For products applying for certification and registration, customers are not inspected, and random market sampling is adopted.

2. Cost difference: the application fee for certification registration is higher than that for formal recognition, and the annual fee is charged. No annual fee is charged for formal recognition.
