The Standards body of Australia is the Standards Association of Australia, so many friends refer to Australian certification as SAA certification. In fact, SAA is merely a standard-setting body and does not issue product certification certificates. SAA was later renamed Standards Australia Limited.

SAA is an independent company with no direct connection to the government, but the federal government and state governments are its members. SAA and the Australian federal government signed a memorandum recognizing SAA as a non-governmental standards organization * in Australia. The memorandum also pointed out that the formulation of standards should be in line with the requirements of the WTO. Therefore, there is an agreement stating that when appropriate international standards already exist, there is no need to formulate new Australian standards. Australian standards start with "AS", while the joint standards of Australia and New Zealand + start with "AS/NZS". The standards of Australia and New Zealand are basically in line with IEC standards, but there are also some national differences. Australia and New Zealand promote the unification of standards and mutual recognition of certifications. Once a product obtains certification in one country, it can be sold in the other.

Regarding the SAA certification in Australia

SAA is a certification that electrical products entering the Australian market must comply with local safety regulations, which is often faced by the industry. Due to the mutual recognition agreement between Australia and New Zealand, all products that have obtained Australian certification can smoothly enter the New Zealand market for sale. All electrical products must undergo safety certification (SAA). There are mainly two types of SAA marks: one is the formal approval, and the other is the standard mark. Formal certification is only responsible for samples, while standard marks require each to undergo factory inspection. At present, there are two ways to apply for SAA certification in China. One is to convert through a CB test report. If there is no CB test report, one can also apply directly.
