On December 1, 2005, Chinese national authorities introduced mandatory certification requirements for motor vehicle parts. The State Administration for Industry and Commerce (AQSIQ) and the National Certification and Accreditation Administration jointly announced that from this date, certain automotive components, including lighting systems, would require compulsory product certification. This regulation was set to take full effect on December 1, 2006. Any motor vehicle parts listed in the official catalog that lacked a valid certification certificate or the required Chinese "3C" mark could no longer be produced, sold, imported, or used in commercial activities.
In December 2005, manufacturers were allowed to submit their products for certification to designated bodies, preparing for the new regulatory framework. The "3C" certification system, launched by AQSIQ on August 1, 2003, aimed to ensure that all automotive products met strict safety and environmental standards. This initiative was designed to protect consumer safety, improve product quality, and enhance public trust in the automotive industry.
Despite these efforts, challenges remained in the implementation of the certification process. Many stakeholders had limited understanding of the system, and there were gaps in related legislation, especially regarding recall procedures. Additionally, inconsistencies in testing standards, variations in sample evaluation, and unclear guidelines for exempt vehicles raised concerns about the effectiveness and fairness of the certification process.
The scope of the mandatory certification included a wide range of automotive lighting components such as headlamps, turn signals, brake lights, fog lights, reversing lights, and license plate illuminators. Other essential parts covered under the regulation included rearview mirrors, horns, fuel tanks, door locks, seat belts, and interior materials. This certification followed previous regulations on headrests, seat belts, and car alarms, marking another step toward comprehensive safety control in the automotive sector.
