SAMR recently released the national standard GB/T 46277-2025, Implementation guidelines for credit commitment of business entities. The standard establishes basic principles for the implementation of the credit commitment of business entities, and provides relevant information such as types, basic contents, management procedures, and reward and punishment measures of the credit commitment. It provides operational guidelines for various business entities to conduct credit commitment in a standardized and orderly manner in administrative management matters.

Credit commitment is an important part of building a new market regulation mechanism based on credit. It is a key measure to innovate social governance methods, strengthen in-process and post-event regulation, and optimize business environment, which is also an important means to promote self-restraint and integrity operation of business entities.

Based on principles of the problem-oriented approach and urgent needs first, SAMR has carried out the research and development of the standard to address the lack of regulation basis in this field, promote the standardization of credit commitment of business entities, improve the effectiveness of credit regulation over business entities, and further exert the leading role of SAMR in building the credit system for business entities.

The standard will guide business entities to make public commitment to the society in a standardized way, incorporate their credit commitment into the credit records for social supervision, and serve as a reference for administrative departments in the in-process and post-event regulation of business entities.

GB/T 46277-2025 will help promote the self-restraint of business entities, and urge them to make self-improvement. It will play a positive role in building a market regulation credit system compatible with high-quality development, enhancing the efficiency of credit regulation, and facilitating smart regulation.
