Revised Standards for Automobile Tyres Announced by Taiwan’s BSMI – CNS 1431:2023
The Bureau of Standards, Metrology, and Inspection (BSMI) of Taiwan has adopted the revised standard CNS 1431:2023 as the updated inspection standard for automobile tyres. While the revised version largely retains the previous standards, it introduces new requirements, including rolling sound emission, wet grip braking performance, and rolling resistance coefficient. These additional measures primarily apply to Class C1 and C2 tyres. Certain tyres, such as those for temporary use, studded tyres, and specific professional off-road tyres, are exempt from these requirements. The new standard will come into effect on July 1, 2026. Automobile tyres typically require BSMI certification to be approved for import and sale in Taiwan.
To comply with the updated regulations, manufacturers and importers must follow one of two conformity assessment procedures: Monitoring Inspection or Registration of Product Certification (RPC). Monitoring Inspection involves submitting an application and type test reports for products before they are shipped or imported. RPC certification requires type testing (Module II) and a quality management system audit under Modules IV, V, or VII. Certified products will carry the Commodity Inspection Mark and may clear customs without further inspection unless sampled for border checks. Fees and specific testing requirements vary, and additional details can be found on the BSMI website.
BSMI approval is mandatory for certain products exported to and sold in Taiwan, but also for certain locally manufactured products. It ensures that products meet the requirements related to safety, health, environmental protection and other technical regulations or standards.

Revised Implementation Rules for Automotive Tires
To enhance the regulation of mandatory product certification for automotive tires, China’s State Administration for Market Regulation has revised the relevant implementation rules. The updated regulation, titled Mandatory Product Certification Implementation Rules for Automotive Tires (CNCA-C12-01:2024), will take effect on January 1, 2025, replacing the previous version (CNCA-C12-01:2015). Automotive tires usually require CCC certification to be approved for import and sale in China.
Certification bodies designated for this purpose must develop detailed implementation guidelines in line with the revised rules and general requirements for mandatory product certification. These guidelines must be filed with the State Administration for Market Regulation before certifications and certificates are issued under the new framework. From January 1, 2025, certification applications will be processed exclusively under the updated rules. Existing valid certificates will remain usable and will transition naturally through processes like renewal, product modifications, or standard updates.
For further information please also refer to our previous news regarding Standards GB9743-2024 and GB9744-2024 (passenger tires and truck tires), which were revised with main focus put on inclusion of rolling resistance and wet grip, as well as the clarification of tire definitions and size standards and the consistency of rolling resistance test data.

Chinese Authorities closed at Turn of the Year – 2024/25
At the beginning of 2025, the Chinese authorities and certification bodies will be closed.
The New Year’s celebrations will take place on January 1, 2025. Regular operations will resume on January 2, 2025. These closing times can cause delays in certification processes during this time.
While New Year’s Eve is celebrated in China in a rather modest way compared to the Chinese New Year, also known as the Spring Festival, it still remains a remarkable time. The Spring Festival, the most important festival in the country, is based on the Chinese lunar calendar. In the coming year, the closing days of the authorities will fall on the period from 28 January to 04 February 2025.
