1. Manufacturing facilities must
establish quality management systems to ensure the control of quality during
manufacturing, assembly, and the release of products, in compliance with
national technical regulations.
2. The certifying authority shall
conduct evaluations of quality assurance (referred to as COP evaluations)
through the following methods:
a) Initial evaluation performed
when granting the Certificate of technical safety quality and environmental
protection for new product types at the manufacturing facility.
Evaluation content: includes
reviewing documents related to enterprise registration, the location, and
rights to use factory premises; assessing the quality management system at the
manufacturing facility to ensure and maintain compliance and the stability of
product quality. This includes: quality control of incoming materials and
components; manufacturing, assembly, and quality checks at each production
stage and upon product release; control of non-conformance and
corrective/preventive actions; maintenance of production equipment and
calibration of quality inspection devices; warranty and recall processes for
products; management and usage of Factory quality inspection slips; storage of
quality inspection records; traceability of parts and products; evaluating the
operational effectiveness of the quality management system during production,
assembly, and final product inspections; assessing the competency of personnel
conducting product quality inspections.
For new product types manufactured by
a facility that has undergone COP evaluation but whose manufacturing, assembly,
and inspection processes have changed compared to previously evaluated product
types, only the aspects that have changed shall be re-evaluated;
b) Periodic evaluation is conducted
according to the cycle specified in Appendix XI enclosed with this Circular.
Evaluation content: review
documents related to enterprise registration and rights to use factory premises
(if changes occurred since the previous evaluation); assess the maintenance of
the quality management system; evaluate the practical operation of the quality
management system during manufacturing, assembly, and final product
inspections; assess the competency of personnel conducting product quality
inspections.
Evaluation includes: ensuring the
manufacturing facility maintains product quality, storing quality inspection
records, and verifying the conformity of released products with the registered
quality criteria for the product type. The management and use of Factory quality
inspection slips are conducted on a random inspection basis. Expanded
inspection and evaluation may be performed if non-conformities are detected
during the evaluation process.
c) Ad hoc evaluation is conducted
when complaints or reports are received regarding: failure to maintain product
quality assurance, failure to conduct product quality inspections, or releasing
products that fail to meet quality standards, do not comply with the
certification application and the representative sample of the product type issued
with Certificate of technical safety quality and environmental protection improper

d) Supplemental evaluation is
conducted when there are changes related to the quality management system,
production stages, inspection stages, factory premises, or final product
inspection equipment that impact the facility's ability to maintain product
quality compared to the previous evaluation.
Evaluation content: assess the
items related to the changes.
3. The manufacturing facility may
request a COP evaluation to be conducted before or after submitting the
application for product type certification or before the scheduled periodic
evaluation; for periodic evaluations, re-evaluations must be conducted no more
than three months before the scheduled evaluation time. If deficiencies are
identified, the manufacturing facility is responsible for rectifying them
within three months of being notified. If the facility fails to address the
deficiencies within this timeframe, the certifying authority will terminate the
evaluation process and record the COP evaluation as non-compliant. If
compliant, the COP evaluation results and the next evaluation schedule will be
communicated to the facility in writing or through an appropriate method. The
timing of the next evaluation will be determined based on the risk management
approach to quality management for manufactured and assembled products, as
specified in Article 14 and Appendix XI enclosed with this Circular.
4. The starting point of the
evaluation cycle is determined as follows:
a) For initial evaluations: The
starting point is from the date of completion of the COP evaluation that meets
requirements;
b) For periodic evaluations: If the
manufacturing facility requests a periodic evaluation before the COP
re-evaluation date previously notified, and the evaluation results meet the
requirements, the starting point for the next evaluation cycle is taken as the
previously notified COP re-evaluation date. If the evaluation identifies any of
the following non-conformities: products fail to meet requirements or do not conform
to the certified product type; final product inspections are not conducted; quality
control technicians fail to follow final product inspection guidelines; final
inspection equipment is not operational, operates abnormally, or does not
ensure accuracy; the use and issuance of final inspection slips are
inconsistent with the certified vehicle type; the results of the previous COP
evaluation will no longer be valid. After the manufacturing facility rectifies
the non-conformities, the starting point of the next evaluation cycle is taken
as the previously notified COP re-evaluation date.
If the manufacturing facility
requests a periodic evaluation after the COP re-evaluation date previously
notified, the starting point is calculated from the date of completion of the
periodic evaluation that meets requirements;
c) For initial evaluations of new
product types manufactured by a facility with a COP evaluation, or for
supplemental evaluations: the starting point of the next evaluation cycle is
taken as the previously notified date.
5. COP evaluations are exempted if
the product type is manufactured and assembled following technology and
inspection processes that are identical to or simpler than those of previously
evaluated product types.

supervision of the certifying authority:
a) Self-conducted final inspection:
Manufacturing facilities granted a
Product type certificate with a COP evaluation that meets requirements and
without violations warranting supervised inspections are allowed to
self-conduct final inspections. The certifying authority may randomly check the
conformity of products released from the factory. If violations are detected,
the certifying authority will apply supervised inspection measures, and the
Product type certificate for the violating product type may be suspended or
revoked in accordance with regulations;
b) Supervised final inspection by
the certifying authority:
The certifying authority conducts
supervision of final inspection (hereinafter referred to as
"supervision") according to the contents specified in Appendix XIII

following violations: products released from the factory do not meet national
technical regulations or do not conform to the application for certification
and the representative sample for the product type; technicians conducting
quality inspections of vehicles before leaving the factory or using quality
inspection equipment fail to follow the manufacturer’s guidelines; violations
are related to the use of Factory quality inspection slip; unauthorized
erasure, alteration, or re-stamping of vehicle identification numbers (VIN) or
engine numbers occurs during production or assembly; or the manufacturing
facility’s evaluation results after each supervision cycle indicate unstable
product quality (product quality is considered stable if the ratio of
non-compliant products requiring re-monitoring to the total monitored products
does not exceed 5% for the entire supervision cycle and 10% for any given month
within the supervision cycle).
The duration of a supervision cycle
is six months (provided products are released from the factory) or based on the
number of supervised products, whichever comes first (2,000 products for
motorcycles and mopeds; 500 products for automobiles, trailers, and
semi-trailers; 200 products for other vehicle types). After each supervision
cycle, if product quality is stable and no violations of this Circular are
