Brent,
The Taiwan BCIQ terminology was changed last year to BSMI. It is my
understanding that at the present time BSMI only imposes an EMC
requirement and certification on ITE. We market adapter powered
printers there (120V) and have not been required to obtain any safety
certifications, although BSMI is working toward a safety certification
process.
In your case, the Taiwan EMC certification number and mark would
probably go on the main ITE product, as measured using the planned
AC adapter.

Subject: BCIQ/BSMI Product Certification
Hello Group,
We are currently in discussion with one of our OEMs who is insisting that we
obtain BSMI/BCIQ Safety Certification on our product.
We are manufacturing an AC/DC Adapter for an end product that is a typical
ITE product (with a processor and I/O ports). After reviewing the List of
Electronic Products that are "Subject to Measures Governing Registration of
Product Certification" I could not locate any reference to a Safety Standard
for potential categories for our equipment (8471.41.00.00). Therefore, I do
not believe that the safety certification is required.
On the other hand, I am aware that regulations are changing on a daily
basis.
If the Safety Certification IS required, I would also appreciate a
recommendation on test laboratories/agents that can assist in the process.
Thank you very much for your kind assistance,
Brent Taira
