Authorities in China closed for Chinese New Year
11. February 2021In 2021, Chinese New Year will take place on February 12, 2021. which heralds the beginning of the Year of the Ox. The timing of the holiday, also known as the Spring Festival, is determined by the lunar calendar and thus varies each year. On China’s most important holiday, Chinese authorities are often closed several days in advance to allow employees enough travel time back home.
This year, the Chinese authorities are again closed for several days. According to official information, the CQC (China Quality Certification Centre) will close from Feb. 11 to Feb. 17, 2021, inclusive, and test labs will also be closed during this period. The CCAP (China Certification Centre for Automotive Products) will also close from 10.02.2021 up to and including 17.02.2021. Delays are therefore to be expected for ongoing certification processes.
MPR China Certification GmbH in Germany, as well as the subsidiaries in the US and China will be open and working as usual. We will gladly continue to support you with your certification processes during Chinese New Year.
