Hello Eric,

Bonjour de Montreal,

Following your comment about Taiwan exemption, do you have a reference document or Web site to support your exemption. I know that National Instruments built PC Add-on cards and Matrox do so as well and in the BSMI web page <http://www.bsmi.gov.tw/english/emc/e_emc_10.htm> you will see the following information (when you scan the first column):

Column 1 (C.C.C. Code)

8473.30.10.90

Column 2 (Reference, I guess)

8471.10¡B
8471.30¡B
8471.41¡B
8471.49¡B
8471.50¡B
8471.60¡B
8471.70 (PC)

Column 3 (Description of goods)

Other parts and accessories
of the machines of
subheading No. 8471.10,
8471.30, 8471.41, 8471.49,
8471.50, 8471.60 and
8471.70 (main board of computers and add-on cards)

Column 4 (Inspection standards)

CNS13438

Column 5 (Date of effect)

2000/7/1

This information seems to indicate that PC add-on cards are subjected to the Taiwan regulation.

Best regards,
