Products that have obtained Australian RCM certification can enter New Zealand smoothly.

Certification introduction:
RCM certification is a mark introduced by Australia and New Zealand to achieve unified marking of electrical products. The mark is a trademark owned by the regulatory agencies of Australia and New Zealand. It indicates that the product meets both safety and EMC requirements and is mandatory. RCM certification controlled electrical products are mainly divided into non-regulated and controlled products, because not all products marked with RCM need to be registered. Non-regulated products do not need to be registered. Currently, only Level 3 electrical products need to be registered. There are a total of 56 major categories including power adapters, vacuum cleaners and other high-risk categories.

Under normal circumstances, the RCM logo should be displayed on the product label. The agent number was originally required. The new RCM does not need to indicate the agent number. After this requirement was released on March 1, 2013, there was a three-year transition period, and it became mandatory on March 1, 2016. Therefore, manufacturers must strictly follow the requirements to perform tests related to this standard.
Basic certification information:

• On March 1, 2016, C-Tick, A-Tick and RCM were integrated into a single regulatory compliance mark RCM

• Products must comply with electrical safety and electromagnetic compatibility

• Is it mandatory: Mandatory certification

• Factory inspection: No

• Local representative: required (certificate needs to be applied for in Australia)

• Agents need to log in to the national database

• Certificate validity period: 2 years, 3 years, 5 years
