Precautions

1) Before formal application, it is important to understand the relevant procedures of GCC certification. Since the GCC certification is valid for one year and requires application materials to be submitted at least three months in advance, the GSO has a summer holiday of up to three months each year. Therefore, Chinese companies must pay special attention to the timing of GCC certification.
2) The key to China's automotive products obtaining GCC certification is to master some special requirements of GCC certification, especially to focus on projects that are different from or more restrictive than China's mandatory standards, such as engine cooling systems, passenger car interior spaces and luggage compartments. Volume, installation location and marking, material requirements for brake pads and batteries, special requirements for power control systems and exhaust systems.
3) As far as possible, Chinese auto companies shall entrust laboratories accredited by the GSO organization to conduct testing tests. The format of the test report content shall meet the requirements, and the test period shall be in accordance with the period deemed appropriate by the GSO organization, and the original records shall be retained.
4) Chinese vehicles must be adaptively modified when GCC certification is carried out, so that they can adapt to the requirements of perennial high temperature, sandy and humid environments in the Middle East. For cars exported to Middle East countries, the engine cooling system should be resistant to high temperatures and strong off-road, because the summer temperature in the Gulf region is as high as 40-50 ° C, and the winter temperature is also maintained at about 20C. The vehicle should be equipped with a large water tank to enhance the heat dissipation of the engine through large water circulation. Use large fans, large batteries, large generators, high-power air conditioners (without heating); use wide tires, tires to increase the ply for high temperature resistance, use windproof sand paint, improve the surface hardness of the car, four-wheel drive, enhance off-road Improve car interior decoration.
5) The configuration and interior of the vehicle must be consistent with regional culture and demand characteristics (Arabic instructions, interiors consistent with the characteristics of Islamic culture, large luggage space).
6) Strengthen vehicle after-sales service.
