▍What is TISI Certification?

TISI is short for Thai Industrial Standards Institute, affiliating to Thailand Industry Department. TISI is responsible for formulating the domestic standards as well as participating in international standards formulation and supervising the products and qualified assessment procedure to ensure the standard compliance and recognition. TISI is a governmental authorized regulatory organization for compulsory certification in Thailand. It is also responsible for formation and management of standards, lab approval, personnel training and product registration. It is noted that there is no non-governmental compulsory certification body in Thailand.

There is voluntary and compulsory certification in Thailand. TISI logos (see Figures 1 and 2) are allowed to use when products meet the standards. For products that have not yet been standardized, TISI also implements product registration as a temporary means of certification.

▍Compulsory Certification Scope

The compulsory certification covers 107 categories, 10 fields, including: electrical equipment, accessories, medical equipment, construction materials, consumer goods, vehicles, PVC pipes, LPG gas containers and agricultural products. Products beyond this scope are fall within the voluntary certification scope. Battery is compulsory certification product in TISI certification.

Applied standard: TIS 2217-2548 (2005)

Applied batteries：Secondary cells and batteries(containing alkaline or other non-acid electrolytes – safety requirements for portable sealed secondary cells, and for batteries made from them, for use in portable applications)

License issuance authority:  Thai Industrial Standards Institute

The proposal No.5080 at the fourth session of the 13th National Committee of the CPPCC proposes to unify the charger ports of electronic intelligent products in order to reduce e-waste and promote carbon neutralization.
The MIIT has made a reply to this proposal: With the rapid iteration of charging/data ports and charging technology, the current intelligent terminal market has formed a pattern which is dominated by USB-C interface and a variety of ports and charging technology coexist.
As the proposal says, the most of original chargers and USB cables will be put aside and cause a big waste after users change their devices. Giving great impetus to charging ports and technique fusion can reduce e-waste and improve the rate of resource utilization.
The reply of MIIC indicates to promote the unification of charging ports and technique fusion, and improve recovery rate of resource, which also means that charging ports will be approved. In the meantime, the recovery processing of electronic products will be enhanced, and the recovery rate of electronic products like abandoned charges will also be improved.
On January 17th 2022, the ECHA declared that four substances would be put in SVHC list (list of candidate substances). The list of SVHC has included 233 kinds of substances.
Of the four new substances added, one is used in cosmetics and found to have feature of interfering with the hormones in the body. Two of these are used in substances such as rubber, lubricants and sealants and can negatively affect human fertility. The fourth substance is used in lubricants and greases and is persistent, biocumulative, toxic (PBT) and harmful to the environment.
