Australia & New Zealand adopt the product type approval system. There isn’t any specific mandatory safety certification mark nor factory inspection requirements, but products subject to EMC testing must apply for the registration of C-Tick Mark, and products subject to both safety and EMC testing can apply for the registration of RCM mark, which is not mandatory. Products only subject to safety testing must be affixed with relevant safety certificate number.
As the laboratory authorized by Australian government, CVC can provide clients with the safety, EMC and energy consumption testing and certification services for products listed in 【Table 1】 and CVC testing reports issued by CVC can be accepted by Australian and New Zealand government directly and help clients obtain type approval certificates.
