Regulations Governing the Issuance and Replacement of Compliance Certification and Sample Testing for New Vehicle Model Noise Inspections Article 3

Vehicles must comply with the relevant regulations of motor vehicle noise control standards and the Regulations before the central competent authority may issue a vehicle model noise inspection compliance certification (herein referred to as "compliance certification").When the vehicle models applying for compliance verification in the foregoing paragraph do not have the same engine family, separate applications for compliance verification must be made; vehicle models having the same engine family shall be distinguished on the basis of vehicle type configuration.When applying for compliance verification in the foregoing paragraph, if motor vehicles with the same engine family simultaneously comply with relevant exhaust emissions and noise testing regulations, they may jointly apply for exhaust emissions and noise compliance verification; or, when needed by the applicant, separate applications for exhaust emissions or noise compliance verification may be made.If motor vehicles that comply with the 6th period or later periods noise control standards were classified as different vehicle types of categories for noise in motion or noise control limits for stationary noise, the compliance certifications shall be applied individually.Domestic (depend on date of manufacture) and imported (depend on date of shipment) electric vehicles shall require compliance verification from 1st February, 2012; domestic (depend on date of manufacture) and imported (depend on date of shipment) electric motorcycles shall require compliance verification from 1st February, 2019.
