China's quality watchdog has stopped 106 batches of unqualified imported toys last year.

Some 11,922 batches were examined in 2013, and 0.89 percent of them failed to meet the quality standards, the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine (GAQSIQ) on Friday said in a report on its website.

The unqualified toys involved a total value of 2.18 million U.S. dollars, but the quality of imported toys was generally good, said the GAQSIQ

According to the rapid alert system for non-food dangerous products (RAPEX) Annual Report issued in March 2014, 64% of disqualified products came from China, much higher than the previous year’s 58 percent. Mimica explained that the increase was driven by tighter regulations in the EU.

EU Commissioner Neven Mimica said that children’s toys represented the largest share of disqualified products, and pointed out several problems with toys in terms of colorants, materials and product designs.
