KC certification, or Korea Certification, is a product certification which ensures the conformity of products to Korean safety standards – called K Standards. The KC Certification (KC Mark Korea Certification) focuses on prevention and reduction of risks regarding safety, health or impact on the environment. The process of KC Certification for Korea has several steps:
- Preparation of Application documents and application
- Registration at the Korean certification authority
- Factory Inspection (only for Korea Safety Certificate)
- Product Tests in an accredited test lab
- Checking of all documents and issuance of the KC Mark Certificate
Collaborative compliance
Compliance requirements are easier to meet when they’re part of the development process, not an afterthought. Nemko helps product teams identify potential issues earlier to reduce rework and simplify the path to approval.
