B. A garment (finished product) inspection report must be provided, which must include the brand name, product name and the above required inspection items. Products with fillers need to be inspected for "raw material requirements", and leather shoes, clothing and accessories need to be inspected for "material identification". For brands that have established quality control systems and hold trademark registration certificates, the requirements for logo and appearance inspection items can be relaxed appropriately.
2. After merchants settle in, they can apply to add brands, categories, and standards as above. For merchants who have already settled in, Taobao Mall will conduct irregular spot checks, including luggage and other categories, so please keep them on record for future reference.
Among the newly introduced requirements, a full set of national standard GB/T18401 project test requirements are added for apparel category products. Taobao Mall officials will refuse to accept the quality inspection report of the previous version in the near future. Sellers who have recently completed the quality inspection report and have not yet submitted it to Taobao for review need to add the GB/T18401 project for testing.
