Tips and Tricks

- All suppliers on Alibaba.com undergo a business verification process.
- We recommend starting by sending inquiries to suppliers with the Verified Supplier badge. This badge represents the highest membership level on Alibaba.com, indicating that these suppliers have been thoroughly verified not only by Alibaba.com but also by reputable third-party agencies like SGS, Intertek, and TÜV Rheinland.
- Verified Suppliers offer authentic videos of their facilities and provide detailed inspection reports covering over 180 points, including product details, R&D capabilities, and quality control. This ensures that you are building business relationships with trusted and credible partners.
Certifications and Standards on Alibaba.com
- On Alibaba.com, you can explore various supplier certifications, including product certifications and more comprehensive standards.
- Suppliers may have certifications for their products, as well as for their facilities and manufacturing processes. These can include industry-specific certifications like R&D standards, ISO certifications, plant inspections, and other quality management or environmental standards.
- When searching for products, you can filter based on the type of certification or standard the supplier has achieved, such as MR7D, ISO, product certifications, facility inspections, and more. However, it’s essential to verify all certifications directly with the supplier before finalizing any purchase.
