Vehicle Safety Certification Center (VSCC)
12. May 2024Taiwan’s Vehicle Safety Certification Center (VSCC) is responsible for both vehicle homologation and the certification of vehicle components. The VSCC was founded by the Ministry of Transport and Communications in 2009 and since then vehicles that are to be sold on the Taiwanese market must first be certified by the VSCC in accordance with Taiwanese requirements. VSCC Certification requires, among other things, tests to be carried out by an accredited laboratory. All tests and approvals must be carried out in accordance with the “Vehicle Safety Testing Direction” (the Taiwanese test standards also known as VSTD).
In addition to the certification and market approval of automotive products, the authority is also responsible for monitoring products that have already been approved and, within this framework, is also responsible for necessary investigations, as well as recalls of products due to quality problems. VSCC also participates in the harmonization of international motor vehicle regulations. You can find more information on our VSCC certification page.
