    Huge Impact

    If there is a product change before the renewal, the manufacturer needs to apply modification on permission items to NMPA first.

    If the product has not changed and the referred mandatory standards such as GB or YY standards are upgraded, the manufacturer needs to do the local type testing first before submitting the modification. Once the manufacturer obtains the approval in modification on permission items by NMPA, and then you can do the renewal. 

    If it is the first registration of your product, the manufacturer needs to comply with the latest guidelines.

    If your products are impacted by the guidelines update or have any questions, please email me.
