The main changes include the adaptation of the certificate contents, which added new requirements for the management and use of electronic certificates, as well as the revision of the test standards for various vehicle parts and test methods. These standards concern, among other things, gas cylinders, sights, license plate holders, safety requirements for buses, the energy consumption of electric vehicles and crane safety. Automotive products typically require CCC certification to be approved for import and sale in China.

From 2024, new certificates will contain additional markings. Laboratories that test certain vehicle parts must adapt their capacities to the new standards and report corresponding information. The new guidelines are effective immediately and must be taken into account when applying for new certification.
