Information technology refers to the technology of acquiring, transmitting, processing, reproducing and utilizing information. Information technology equipment (IT) products in the CCC catalogue are products with high technical content, mature processing technology and fast replacement. Since December 2001, information technology equipment has been included in the China Compulsory Product Certification referred to as CCC certification or 3C certification by the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine, which also means that information technology equipment within the scope of the catalog must apply for 3C certification before it can Domestic market sales.

What is 3C certification

The full name of 3C certification is "China Compulsory Product Certification", the English name is China Compulsory Certification, and the English abbreviation is CCC. All products listed in the compulsory product certification catalogue, without the certification certificate of the designated certification body, without the certification mark as required, shall not be imported, sold or used in business service places.

The necessity of applying for 3C certification

◆ 3C certification is a compulsory certification and a pass to enter the domestic market. If it is sold in China, the products in the 3C compulsory catalogue must be 3C certified.

◆ If the product is exported, there is a 3C certification mark, which can reduce some items of export inspection.

◆ Because CCC certification is a kind of fairness that issues authoritative certificates for the compliance of products through strict inspection and inspection by a third-party testing agency independent of the first party (supplier) and the second party (purchaser) , The scientific quality system, in line with the laws of the market economy, can bring direct economic benefits to both sides of the trade.
