What is Amazon UL Certification？

1. Introduction to Amazon UL Standard Test Report

As Amazon's strategic position in global commerce continues to improve, products with electrical connections need relevant UL reports to be listed on Amazon. Test reports issued by laboratories with ISO 17025 qualifications are required for normal sales and restoration of links. If the products purchased by competitors or customers do not have safety reports of relevant standards, competitors or customers will entrust American lawyers to send letters to Amazon, requesting that the company's products be stopped from being sold, and apply for court proceedings to destroy all of the company's products on Amazon, which may mean that the company is basically driven out of the North American market. Many sellers reported receiving relevant email notifications, and their products were suspended from sale and listings were removed from the shelves due to the inability to provide UL test reports within the specified time.
