TREE NEWS update: China’s Certification and Accreditation Administration (CNCA) ordered Zhongqi Certification Center Co., Ltd. to suspend operations for one month, from September 9 to October 8, 2026. The regulator found the center failed to correctly identify product categories and issued compulsory product certification certificates for products outside the compulsory certification catalogue. Under Article 43 of the Compulsory Product Certification Regulations, the center may not conduct compulsory product certification activities within its designated scope during the suspension.
China’s CNCA Orders Zhongqi Certification Center Suspended for One Month
This is a Chinese regulatory enforcement action against a domestic certification body, not a crypto or RWA market event, so its direct relevance to digital-asset readers is limited. The significance lies in the compliance theme: a certifier penalised for issuing certificates beyond its authorised catalogue scope, a pattern of scope creep that also matters in tokenisation, where attestations and audits underpin trust. What is worth watching is whether CNCA's scrutiny of certification bodies broadens, since the same credibility questions apply to RWA verification.
