Application methods for FCC ID certification:

Generally, there are two ways to apply for FCC ID certification:

1. Directly send the product to an FCC-approved TCB laboratory to complete the testing. This method is relatively expensive and the timing may not be easily controlled (high cost, not recommended).

2. Send the product to an FCC-approved laboratory (JJRLAB) for testing, prepare the documentation, and obtain the report. Then submit the test report to the TCB institution for certification issuance. Currently, clients mainly use this method. FCC ID certification can be verified online in the United States to discern authenticity.
