Hong Kong S-Mark Certification Scheme

Demonstrate safety compliance for your electrical products with S-Mark certification and our support

Electrical products designed for household use and intended for sale in Hong Kong are covered by the Electrical Products Safety Regulation (EPSR). The EPSR distinguishes between prescribed products and non-prescribed products. Prescribed products include: plugs, adaptors, lamp holders, flexible cords, extension units and unvented thermal storage type electric water heaters. Products other than the 6 types of prescribed products mentioned above are considered non-prescribed products. To comply with the Hong Kong EPSR, the manufacturer or importer has to obtain testing and certification of their products. A certificate of safety compliance for prescribed products is only accepted if issued by a recognized certification body like TUV Rheinland. Partnering with us means short lead times. Benefit from our established working relations with local authorities. Contact our experts for a quote and get the S-Mark for your electrical products!
