Circular 42/2016/TT-BTTTT stipulated that batteries installed in mobile phones, tablets and notebooks are not allowed to be exported to Vietnam unless they are subjected to DoC certifctaion since Oct.1,2016. DoC will also be required to provide when applying Type Approval for end products (mobile phones, tablets and notebooks).
MIC released new Circular 04/2018/TT-BTTTT in May,2018 which stipulates that no more IEC 62133:2012 report issued by overseas accredited laboratory is accepted in July 1, 2018. Local test is necessity while applying for ADoC certificate.
▍Testing Standard
QCVN101：2016/BTTTT（refer to IEC 62133：2012)
▍PQIR
The Vietnamese government issued a new decree No. 74/2018 / ND-CP on May 15, 2018 to stipulate that two types of products imported into Vietnam are subject to PQIR (Product Quality Inspection Registration) application when being imported to Vietnam.
Based on this law, the Ministry of Information and Communication (MIC) of Vietnam issued the official document 2305/BTTTT-CVT on July 1, 2018, stipulating that the products under its control (including batteries) must be applied for PQIR when being imported into Vietnam. SDoC shall be submitted to complete the customs clearance process. The official date of entry into force of this regulation is August 10, 2018. PQIR is applicable to a single import to Vietnam, that is, every time an importer imports goods, he shall apply for PQIR (batch inspection) + SDoC.
However, for importers who are urgent to import goods without SDOC, VNTA will temporarily verify PQIR and facilitate customs clearance. But importers need to submit SDoC to VNTA to complete the entire customs clearance process within 15 working days after customs clearance. (VNTA will no longer issue the previous ADOC which is only applicable to Vietnam Local Manufacturers)

Each manufacturer will have the responsibility to use components with relevant registration (R-no.) in case the component is covered in CRS. It is important to note that the manufacturer here refers to the manufacturer of the test product. If the battery test is carried out, and the cell is not yet evidence, the battery manufacturer shall provide a letter of commitment; Similarly, if the test of the terminal product mobile phone is carried out, and the battery cell, battery and adapter of its components are not obtained, the mobile phone manufacturer needs to provide a letter of commitment; If the cell, battery, adapter and mobile phone are tested at the same time, the manufacturers of the latter three requirements will need to provide a letter of commitment. The cell manufacturer is not required to provide a letter of commitment under any circumstances.According to the guidelines, a pilot project for parallel testing of mobile phone and its components (cell, battery & adaptor) has been allowed from 01 Jan 2022 to 30 June 2022. An example of procedure to be followed is given below: BIS lab/BIS recognized labs can initiate testing of battery without R-number of cell. The lab will mention the test report no. along-with the name of lab (in place of R-Number of cell) in the final test report of the battery.Similarly, the lab can initiate the testing of Mobile Phone without R-number of cell, battery & adaptor. The lab will mention the test report number(s) & name(s) of the lab for these components in the final test report of the mobile phone.
