On Nov 25th, SIRIM announced the following changes for the marketing of products in the application process: The product marketing name is one of the requisite information to be declared in the Type Approval application, as requested by the MCMC. This information is used to facilitate the consumer and regulator’s enforcement team in verifying the product certification status via CYL mobile application. As such, all Type Approval applicants shall ensure the product marketing name information is declared upon application submission and is available on the marketed product. Nonetheless, if the product is marketed without a specific marketing name, the applicant shall input the marketing name information field in e-ComM with the specific model name.
The marketing name information shall be traceable from one or more of the following objective evidence:
1. Product Specification
2. User Manual
3. Product Brochure
4. Product Marking
5. Product Packaging
