Proposal for Legal Inspection Requirements for Playpens for Domestic Use (2 page(s), in English; 1 page(s), in Chinese)

In response to the concerns raised by the public about the safety of playpens for domestic use due to incidents in recent years that resulted in severe injuries to children, the Bureau of Standards, Metrology and Inspection (BSMI) intends to regulate the safety and quality of playpens for domestic use. The conformity assessment procedure is either Type-Approved Batch Inspection or Registration of Product Certification (Module 2 + Module 3).
