Introduction to Taiwan BSMI certification
BSMI is short for the Bureau of Standards, Metrology and Inspection
of Taiwan's ministry of economic affairs. According to the ministry
of economic affairs of Taiwan, from July 1, 2005, products entering
the Taiwan region will be subject to both electromagnetic
compatibility and safety regulations. Taiwan BSMI (BSMI) under the
leadership of the government sectors of the economy, to enter
Taiwan market to establish the product inspection norms of
electrical and electronic products, and demand the product must
conform to the safety, EMC test and related inspection, can only be
authorized to use the BSMI logo. BSMI certification is a mandatory
product certification that requires EMC (electromagnetic
compatibility) and SAFETY (SAFETY). BSMI certification is usually
valid for three years, but BSMI does not currently have a factory
inspection but must comply with the bureau of standards. Therefore,
the certification mode of BSMI is: product inspection +
registration supervision.

If your product is in the following scope, you need to apply for
verification to expand the domestic market:
1, mandatory commodity inspection marks (CI MARK) : electrical
products, such as electrical appliances product, electronic
product, such as information and entertainment audio-visual
equipment, such equipment products, mechanical products (such as
power tools equipment), chemical products (such as tires and toys);
2. Voluntary orthographic marking (CNS MARK): industrial products,
building materials, electric wires, household appliances, auto
parts, industrial materials, or products of competitors with
orthographic marking;
3, voluntary product certification MARK (VPC) MARK: safety critical
components, digital set-top boxes, lamp holder, battery chargers,
restricted hazardous substances, lithium-ion batteries, the vehicle
electromagnetic compatibility, sports fitness equipment, etc.

BSMI certification application
There are three ways to apply:
Type approval includes two types:
1 type approval (EMC+Safety), 178 kinds of electronic and
electrical products need to apply for this kind of approval since
January 1, 2004. Applicable standards: EMC + Safety, documents
required have (product type approval application form, company or
factory license, test report, used for electromagnetic
compatibility of technical documents, photos, tags, have the parts
of the electromagnetic interference, block diagram and use manual
and Safety technical documents). Certificate validity: three years,
may be extended once.
2. EMC type approval (replacing the original EMC application) shall
be enforced from November 1, 2002. Applicable products: 61
electronic products only have EMI requirements, 124 electronic
products only need EMI+ safety reports (if there are safety
requirements). Applicable standards: only EMI. The documents needed
to be provided include (application for approval of electromagnetic
compatibility type, test report, technical documents: photo, label,
parts with electromagnetic compatibility, block diagram and
operation manual).
2. Certification registration
Enforcement date: not yet announced. Applicable standards: EMI+
safety. Have a need to provide the documents (product type approval
application form, company or factory license, test reports,
technical documents for the electromagnetic compatibility: photos,
tags, have the parts of the electromagnetic interference, block
diagram and use manual as well as the safety technical documents,
the conformity declaration).
Certificate validity: three years, may be extended once
Iii. Declaration of conformity
Enforcement date: January 18, 2002. Applicable products: 19
information technology equipment components. Applicable standards:
CNS13438 (ONLY EMC). The documents to be provided are (compliance
declaration, test report, technical documents: photos, labels,
parts with electromagnetic interference, block diagram and
operation manual). No certificate.
For electronic and electrical products, the three application modes
provided by the standards bureau are as follows:
1. The declaration of conformity only applies to parts of some
information technology equipment (please refer to the product
description on the website of the standard inspection bureau).
2. The product cost manufacturer shall decide to apply for
certification registration or type approval at its own discretion.
3. The difference between certification registration and type
approval is:
Inspection method: if the product has been approved by type, the
customer inspection will be simplified. For the products that apply
for certification registration, the customer shall not be examined,
and market random sampling shall be adopted.
Fee differential: the application fee for certification
registration is higher than that for formal recognition. And charge
annual fee, type approval does not charge annual fee.
