Seminar on GCC Technical Regulation for Toys entering Gulf Markets

11 Feb 2015

The new GCC Technical Regulation on children toys has entered into force on January 1, 2014. Under this regulation, toy manufacturers must ensure that all toys placed on markets of all GCC member countries shall be affixed with the G-mark which signifies conformity to the essential safety requirements, relevant Gulf Standards, safety assessments, and conformity assessments procedures. Every consignment of toys from importers shall be certified by a Notified Body and apply the G-mark before entering the Gulf market.

In addition to product testing, the conformity assessment procedures also include establishing a technical document, applying for product certification (and GC Type approval if needed), and issuing of Declaration of Conformity.

Intertek Hong Kong, being one of the first accredited Testing Laboratories and Notified Bodies in Asia, will be organizing a seminar to introduce the GCC Technical Regulation on children toys, as well as highlighting Gulf Standards, safety assessments, and conformity assessments procedures. Seats are limited and don’t miss this seminar while you’re visiting the Playworld Middle East 2015 show!
