Hello Monrad,

Hong Kong still has a completely separate regulatory regime from China. You 
will likely find importing to Hong Kong far simpler than Chinese approvals. As 
far as I am aware, most products will not require marking for Hong Kong. It 
will likely require minimal work if you don't have radios in the products.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [PSES] Does Hong Kong require same EMC/Safety/RoHS 
approvals and labeling as China?

Does Hong Kong require the same EMC/Safety/RoHS approvals and labeling as 
China?  My focus is on regulation of automated data processing products like 
servers, PCs, disk arrays, switches, power distribution units (PDUs) and rack 
integrated systems.  For example, China requires that servers and PCs be 
labeled with a CCC mark for EMC & Safety and also Environment Friendly Use 
Period (EFUP) labeling for RoHS.  Is this required for Hong Kong as well?

Of course, Hong Kong is a Special Administrative Region under the People's 
Republic of China since 1 July 1997, but they have a "high degree of autonomy" 
in all matters except foreign and defense affairs for the subsequent 50 years.  
The products I support already have CCC & EFUP labeling and approvals so the 
topic has not come up until now when we might be importing a few 3rd party 
products into Hong Kong.

Thanks.

Monrad Monsen
