Singapore Enterprise has issued the circular CPSO-120721-00 on July 12, 2021 to inform the changes in safety standards for the high-risk Controlled Goods, regulated under the Consumer Protection (Safety Requirements) Regulations (CPSR).

Under the CPSR, 33 categories of household electrical, electronics and gas appliances and accessories are classified as Controlled Goods. Controlled Goods are required to be tested and certified to specified safety standards, registered with the Consumer Product Safety Office1 (CPSO), and affixed with the Safety Mark before they can be sold in Singapore.

From July 13, 2022 onwards, the Controlled Goods which are tested to editions of their applicable Safety Standards that are older than what is listed in the requirement, will not be accepted for new registrations or renewal of existing registrations.

Singapore Enterprise updated the latest CPS Booklet on July 12, 2021.
