I saw a piece of news a few days ago. Let's talk about what happened.

South Korea calls on China to postpone CCC certification for Korean lithium batteries

　　According to the National Institute of Technology and Standards under the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy of South Korea on the 21st, it recently requested China to postpone the application of compulsory product certification (CCC) management scheduled to be implemented in August for South Korean lithium-ion batteries and other products.

　　The seventh Korea-China Free Trade Agreement (FTA) Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee meeting was held in Beijing on the 18th. The Korean side expressed at the meeting that in order to allow relevant Korean companies to smoothly adjust to the changes in Chinese policies, it hopes that my country will postpone the application of this new regulation to Korean products.

　　In order to strengthen the safety supervision of relevant products, my country will carry out CCC certification for lithium-ion batteries and battery packs for portable electronic products from August 1, and plans to ban products that do not obtain CCC certification certificates and are marked with certification marks from leaving the factory, being sold, imported or used in other business activities from August 2024.

　　my country also expressed its hope that South Korea could relax the detailed standards for distinguishing models of electrical appliances in the Korean Certification (KC).

　　The Korea National Institute of Technology and Standards said that the two sides agreed that it was necessary to improve the effectiveness of the mutual recognition system in the field of electrical and electronic products. At the same time, in order to reduce the export burden of enterprises in both countries, the two sides reached an agreement on strengthening cooperation in mutual recognition work such as factory inspection cooperation programs.

The implementation of certification is definitely strict, and some may not be met. Give him some time to meet the certification requirements.

The production, turnover and sales of products have a time cycle, and the application for certification also takes time. If the cycle of the former is too close to the latter, it will cause the products and inventory that have been imported or even included in the recent production plan to be scrapped. The original poster also mentioned that China asked South Korea to relax the standards, which shows that this is bargaining in the trade conflict.

The current economic environment is not good, commodity production and sales are weak, inventory is increasing, and the production and sales cycle is lengthened. This situation is not surprising.

The problem is not the time required to reach the certification standards, which is definitely not a problem, after all, the total time is not short. The key is that for products that have been produced or have entered the production process, if they are not sold out before the deadline, the consequences will be serious. Combined with the current economic situation, it is not difficult to determine what the reason is.

The majority of lithium batteries are used in digital products such as electric vehicles and mobile phones. The statistical data for the first quarter of this year has been released, and it is no exaggeration to say that "inventory backlogs are serious."

It is likely that this involves a conflict of interest. I guess there are a lot of excuses that this is not allowed and that is not allowed.

Sure enough, the teacher thinks more comprehensively.
