Abstract
China is one of the developing countries with a remarkable economic growth. Its Gross domestic product (GDP) was US$9.24 trillion in 2013 [1]. Due to the huge market, many international toys manufacturers came to sell their products in China. The Standardization Administration of the People´s Republic of China (SAC) has published the new China National Toy Safety Standard in May 2014. Although the new standard is benchmarked against the international toy safety standards and involved expertise in China, some popular products are still not covered by this new edition and the product certification scheme. As a result, manufacturers may sell unsafe toys products in China without any restriction.
