The GB/T 39560 series corresponds to the IEC 62321 series of standards.

It will be recalled that under China RoHS conformity assessment is mandatory only for electrical and electronic products listed in the first batch of the Compliance Management Catalogue and manufactured or imported after 1 November 2019. This can be done through two approaches, either voluntary certification or self-declaration, at the discretion of manufacturers/suppliers. Until this recent announcement, products were required to be tested in accordance with GB/T 26125.

 

The transition is being implemented as follows:

• Starting from 1 March 2024, the testing methods for conducting conformity assessment activities for the restricted use of hazardous substances will be implemented in accordance with the GB/T 39560 series of standards.
• Before 1 March 1 2024, if the conformity assessment is completed in accordance with GB/T 26125, the standard conversion will be completed through normal transition methods such as expiration of certificate renewal, product change, etc.
• Products that have been shipped or imported before 1 March 2024 do not need to undergo standard conversion.

Other planned revisions to China’s RoHS are in progress, including the addition of four phthalates (DEHP, BBP, DBP and DIBP) to the hazardous substance list of China RoHS and development of a mandatory standard for hazardous substances restriction and labelling, effectively combining existing Standards SJ/T 11364 and GB/T 26572.
