▍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

In November 2021, ICAO dangerous Goods Group proposed in the meeting: considering reducing the risk of transportation of lithium batteries, it is suggested to add 30% limit of SOC to the parts of packaging instructions PI967, PI966, PI974, PI910 and other parts of lithium batteries transported in accordance with UN 3481 and UN3171.  The following are the proposed changes:  
December 17, 2021，the State Administration for Market Regulation issued Beijing Xingda Zhilian Technology Co., LTD. ‘s recall of some lithium iron phosphate replacement batteries of Hello brand.  
In accordance with the requirements of the “consumer product recall management interim provisions”, Beijing Xingda Zhilian technology co., LTD., take the initiative to report to the state administration of market supervision and management of the recall plan, and as from today the recall of 60-5 lithium iron phosphate manufactured from February 17 to February 28,2021 will be involving the number to 5018.  
The reason for this recall is that the components on the battery protection plate may be damaged by the controller capacitor of the user’s modified car, which may cause the components to overheat. In extreme cases, there may be a safety risk of overheating and fire.
