BSMI / NCC Certification
Example: electric grill, refrigerators and voltage stabilizer in Keelung Customs' 2026-10-29 sale
In the inspection list for the 9th tender by mail published by Keelung Customs on 2026-10-21 (sale date 2026-10-29), the sale conditions of the electric grill and refrigerator lots state that import release must be based on a certificate of conformity from the Bureau of Standards, Metrology and Inspection (BSMI), Ministry of Economic Affairs; the voltage stabilizer lot is sold as-is, and its sale conditions list no collection condition.
| Lot | Item | CCC tariff code | Sale conditions (summary) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 156023 | Electric grill | 8516.60.90.00-9 | Import release must be based on a BSMI certificate of conformity (or export the goods in their original condition and packaging within 2 months from the day after the award) |
| 156024 | Refrigerators (the same lot also includes tyres) | 8418.21.90.00-6 | Import release must be based on a BSMI certificate of conformity (or export the goods in their original condition and packaging within 2 months from the day after the award) |
| 156009 | Voltage stabilizer | 8504.40.99.90-0 | Sold as-is (item type, new/used condition and functionality are to be inspected and assessed by bidders themselves); the sale conditions list no collection condition |
Data dates: Keelung Customs announcement 2026-10-21, sale date 2026-10-29, checked by HowBridge 2026-10-26. For the voltage stabilizer, “the sale conditions list no collection condition” only means that the sale conditions of that lot do not state one; it does not mean that imports of similar household appliances are always exempt from inspection. Whether a household appliance is subject to inspection is determined by its CCC tariff code and the BSMI rules. For all 19 lots, see this round's list in the Customs auction guide. HowBridge only handles consolidation shipping from China (Shenzhen consolidation warehouse) → Taiwan; it does not bid in Customs sales on anyone's behalf and does not guarantee customs clearance or collection of any goods.
