Vietnam MIC Certification Specific Process For All Lithium Batteries

Basic introduction
Vietnam's MIC department issued an announcement in early 2016 that from October 1 this year, all lithium batteries, including those sold independently and used in end products (notebooks, tablets, mobile phones, etc.) will require a DOC certificate (standard number: QCVN 101:2006/BTTTT). The above products will also be required to provide the DoC of the battery when undergoing Vietnam MIC certification.
On July 4, 2016, the MIC department considered that the product testing and certification cycle was too long and battery manufacturers did not have enough time to meet the certification requirements, and issued another notice: Postponing the mandatory certification date for battery products to April 1, 2017 .

The following is the notice of Vietnam MIC delaying the implementation of compulsory certification of battery products:
The Ministry of Information and Communications of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam (MIC) implements mandatory TCVN/TCN standards and specifications for electromagnetic interference and communication products in the information product category. For the electromagnetic interference part, local suppliers can submit an application in the form of self-declaration. After final approval by the Ministry of Information, the products can be sold in the Vietnamese market.

The IEC testing standards corresponding to Vietnam's battery certification regulations QCVN 101:2016/BTTTT are IEC61960 (2011)  and IEC62133 (2012). [Note: These two standards must be met at the same time to meet the QCVN standards. 】
