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 relevant TCVN/TCN standards for electromagnetic interference and communication products of information products. The electromagnetic interference part can be applied by local suppliers in the form of self-declaration, and finally approved by the Ministry of Information, the products can be sold in the Vietnamese market.

The Vietnam Energy Efficiency Label Certification is a compulsory certification issued and implemented by the Ministry of Industry and Commerce of Vietnam (MOIT for short). MOIT is the government department responsible for supervising all energy industries in Vietnam, including electricity, new energy and renewable energy, and formulating and implementing relevant laws and policies. From January 2020, energy efficiency labels for LED lights and laptops will be enforced. From now on, after obtaining the Energy Efficiency Declaration of Conformity (EE DoC), the above-mentioned products must comply with the Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards (MEPS) and regulatory energy efficiency labels before they can be sold in the Vietnamese market. In addition, Vietnamese officials encourage manufacturers to voluntarily post energy efficiency labels for products that are not in the list of mandatory energy efficiency labels.
