What is a third-party quality inspection report?

A third-party quality inspection report, also known as type test report, shall be issued by authorized domestic third-party testing institutions. In accordance with e-commerce rules, supermarket access requirements and national standards, products will be tested for quality, safety or specific performance based on national standards and client demands.

If non-conformity is found in the report, the testing agency will provide reasonable improvement suggestions for enterprises to optimize products to meet standard requirements. Micez does not hold CNAS and CMA qualifications. In accordance with national laboratory accreditation regulations, only laboratories with metrological certification (CMA) and CNAS accreditation can issue legally effective quality inspection reports. CMA stands for China Metrology Accreditation, while CNAS refers to the accreditation by China National Accreditation Service for Conformity Assessment.
