BSMI is the Bureau of Standards, Inspection and Quarantine of the Ministry of Economic Affairs. Its predecessor was the National Bureau of Weights and Measures established in 1930. It is the highest inspection agency of the Republic of China and is responsible for national standards, weights and measures, and commodity inspection. The product inspection specifications for Taiwan's electrical and electronic products are formulated by BSMI. Products must comply with safety and EMC tests and related tests before they can be authorized to use the BSMI mark. Electrical and electronic product testing is carried out according to three plans: Type Approval (T); Verification Registration (R) and Declaration of Conformity (D).
