NCC certification process

1. The entrusting party provides product data to ZRLK testing agency for evaluation and quotation;

2. The entrusting party confirms the counter-signed quotation, fills in the application form, provides samples and data, arranges the payment (the first payment), and the institution opens the case;

3. Arrange product forecast and review data;

4. If the test and data have problems, arrange rectification and retest until they are qualified;

5. After the test and data are qualified, the issuing authority shall conduct witness test;

6. After the witness test is completed, the issuing authority shall issue the test report and issue the certificate;

7. The entrusting party shall pay off the payment (balance), get the certificate report and close the case.

Note: NCC certification does not accept foreign test reports and certificates.

Before the applicant has appointed a local agent, the foreign manufacturer can temporarily serve as the holder of the certification. However, if it is necessary to handle and complete the business of imported products, it is still necessary to have local agents.
