▍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.

Products beyond this scope are fall within the voluntary certification scope. Battery is compulsory certification product in TISI certification.

On June 10th, TISI host a consultancy conference for TIS 62368 standard, and ended on July 16th, collecting many concerns and feedbacks.

Batteries and cells shipped alone should get through TIS 2217 certification. Only those batteries and cells shipped with end products are free from TIS 2217 and TIS 62368 PART 1-2563 for end products are required only.TIS 62368 requires 2 samples for each model.Model name, classification, voltage, radio frequency, current and product name will be listed on certificates. Therefore various model names hardly exist on one certificate.
