National Standards

Like ANSI in the United States, GB standards fall in many areas. Mandatory standards are prefixed "GB". Recommended standards are prefixed "GB/T" where the letter T is from Chinese tuīji?n (推荐, recommended). A standard number follows "GB" or "GB/T".
The following is a list of some National Standards of the People's Republic of China. Compared to many international standards of ISO, many standards are identical (IDT), equivalent (EQV), or non-equivalent (NEQ).
