Collect fees in disguised form on the basis of public notice and catalogue.

In 2002, according to the Decision of the State Council on Cancellation of the First Batch of Administrative Examination and Approval Projects (No. 24 of Guofa [2002]), the Ministry of Public Security cancelled five items of administrative examination and approval of fire products, such as examination and certification of fire products and filing of fire products.

In May 2003, the Ministry of Public Security and the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine jointly issued the Notice on Strengthening the Supervision and Administration of Fire-fighting Product Quality (Gongtong No. 38), formally confirming the market access system of fire-fighting products in China.

According to the Regulations on Fire Supervision and Inspection promulgated by the Ministry of Public Security in June 2004 and revised in 2009, fire departments of public security departments are responsible for spot fire supervision and inspection. At the same time, according to the "Fire Products on-site Inspection and Judgment Rules" implemented in 2006, fire protection agencies of public security departments conduct on-site inspections of fire products for sale, storage, transportation, installation, maintenance and use, including market access inspections, product consistency inspections and on-site product performance inspections.
