What China GB 18384-2020 - Electric Vehicle Safety Standard and GB Standards for New Energy Vehicles requires
China's GB 18384-2020 (Electric Vehicles Safety Requirements, effective 1 January 2021) is the mandatory national standard for battery electric vehicle (BEV) and fuel cell electric vehicle (FCEV) safety in China's domestic market and for vehicles exported from China. GB 18384-2020 replaced GB/T 18384-2015 and aligns with UN ECE R100 with China-specific requirements. The broader New Energy Vehicle (NEV) mandatory standard suite includes: GB 18384-2020 (EV safety), GB 18385-2021 (EV performance), GB 18386.1-2021 (EV energy consumption), GB/T 27930-2015 (DC charging interface CHAdeMO), GB/T 20234.2-2015 (AC charging), GB/T 20234.3-2015 (DC fast charging GB/T standard), and GB 38031-2020 (EV traction battery safety). Manufacturers exporting to China must obtain China Compulsory Certification (CCC) under the 3C certification scheme administered by CNCA (Certification and Accreditation Administration) covering all mandatory GB standards.
