Exporting PPE and respirators from China requires navigating market-specific classification systems (Category III PPE under EU PPE Regulation 2016/425; NIOSH approval in the United States), mandatory third-party type-examination by notified or approved bodies, and controls on authorised representative obligations. Performance standards for filtration efficiency, breathing resistance, face-seal leakage, and durability must be demonstrated under prescribed test conditions. The pages below compare the applicable standards, approval authorities, and post-market surveillance requirements for each market covered. 25 Comparison collection Index updated: 2026-06-14 [Browse all comparisons](/standard/browse) Comparison collection ## Comparisons by destination market ### Australia (RCM/AS-NZS) - [Australia (RCM/AS-NZS)](/standard/ppe-respirator-china-to-australia) - PPE / respirator (mask) · View comparison ### Brazil (INMETRO) - [Brazil (INMETRO)](/standard/ppe-respirator-china-to-brazil) - PPE / respirator (mask) · View comparison ### Canada (Health Canada / CSA) - [Canada (Health Canada / CSA)](/standard/ppe-respirator-china-to-canada) - PPE / respirator (mask) · View comparison ### Chile - [Chile](/standard/ppe-respirator-china-to-chile) - PPE / respirator (mask) · View comparison ### Egypt - [Egypt](/standard/ppe-respirator-china-to-egypt) - PPE / respirator (mask) · View comparison ### European Union (CE) - [European Union (CE)](/standard/ppe-respirator-china-to-eu) - PPE / respirator (mask) · View comparison ### India (BIS/ALMM) - [India (BIS/ALMM)](/standard/ppe-respirator-china-to-india) - PPE / respirator (mask) · View comparison ### Indonesia (SNI / SDPPI) - [Indonesia (SNI / SDPPI)](/standard/ppe-respirator-china-to-indonesia) - PPE / respirator (mask) · View comparison ### Japan (PSE/JET) - [Japan (PSE/JET)](/standard/ppe-respirator-china-to-japan) - PPE / respirator (mask) · View comparison ### Kenya - [Kenya](/standard/ppe-respirator-china-to-kenya) - PPE / respirator (mask) · View comparison ### Malaysia (ST / SIRIM) - [Malaysia (ST / SIRIM)](/standard/ppe-respirator-china-to-malaysia) - PPE / respirator (mask) · View comparison ### Mexico (NOM / COFEPRIS) - [Mexico (NOM / COFEPRIS)](/standard/ppe-respirator-china-to-mexico) - PPE / respirator (mask) · View comparison ### Morocco - [Morocco](/standard/ppe-respirator-china-to-morocco) - PPE / respirator (mask) · View comparison ### Nigeria (NAFDAC / SON) - [Nigeria (NAFDAC / SON)](/standard/ppe-respirator-china-to-nigeria) - PPE / respirator (mask) · View comparison ### Philippines - [Philippines](/standard/ppe-respirator-china-to-philippines) - PPE / respirator (mask) · View comparison ### Saudi Arabia (SASO/SABER) - [Saudi Arabia (SASO/SABER)](/standard/ppe-respirator-china-to-saudi) - PPE / respirator (mask) · View comparison ### Singapore (EMA / Enterprise Singapore) - [Singapore (EMA / Enterprise Singapore)](/standard/ppe-respirator-china-to-singapore) - PPE / respirator (mask) · View comparison ### South Africa (SABS / NERSA) - [South Africa (SABS / NERSA)](/standard/ppe-respirator-china-to-south-africa) - PPE / respirator (mask) · View comparison ### South Korea (KC / KATS) - [South Korea (KC / KATS)](/standard/ppe-respirator-china-to-south-korea) - PPE / respirator (mask) · View comparison ### Thailand - [Thailand](/standard/ppe-respirator-china-to-thailand) - PPE / respirator (mask) · View comparison ### Turkey (CE-equivalent / TSE) - [Turkey (CE-equivalent / TSE)](/standard/ppe-respirator-china-to-turkey) - PPE / respirator (mask) · View comparison ### United Arab Emirates (ESMA / GSO) - [United Arab Emirates (ESMA / GSO)](/standard/ppe-respirator-china-to-uae) - PPE / respirator (mask) · View comparison ### United Kingdom (UKCA) - [United Kingdom (UKCA)](/standard/ppe-respirator-china-to-uk) - PPE / respirator (mask) · View comparison ### United States (UL/FCC) - [United States (UL/FCC)](/standard/ppe-respirator-china-to-us) - PPE / respirator (mask) · View comparison ### Vietnam (MOIT / MOST) - [Vietnam (MOIT / MOST)](/standard/ppe-respirator-china-to-vietnam) - PPE / respirator (mask) · View comparison Browse all comparisons [Browse all comparisons](/standard/browse) **Related product pillars** [Grid-tied PV inverter](/standard/product/pv-inverter) · [Battery energy storage (BESS)](/standard/product/bess) · [EV charger](/standard/product/ev-charger) · [Home/clinical medical device](/standard/product/medical-device) · [Industrial electric motor](/standard/product/industrial-motor) · [Sodium-ion battery storage (Na-ion)](/standard/product/na-ion-storage) · [Perovskite / tandem PV module](/standard/product/perovskite-pv) · [Water electrolyzer (green hydrogen, AEM/PEM)](/standard/product/electrolyzer) · [Data-center liquid cooling (cold plate / CDU)](/standard/product/datacenter-cooling) · [GaN fast charger / power adapter](/standard/product/gan-charger) · [Air-source heat pump](/standard/product/heat-pump) · [LED luminaire](/standard/product/led-luminaire) · [Electric bicycle (e-bike)](/standard/product/e-bike) · [Toys & children's products](/standard/product/toys) · [Cosmetics & personal care](/standard/product/cosmetics) · [Food-contact materials](/standard/product/food-contact) · [Lithium battery / power bank](/standard/product/lithium-battery) · [Refrigerator / cold appliance](/standard/product/refrigerator)
