What is FCC Certification?

The FCC (Federal Communications Commission) is the official body in the United States responsible for managing the nation's radio resources, similar to China's Radio Management Committee. In addition to managing the country's radio resources, the FCC regulates whether the electromagnetic interference of electronic products entering the U.S. market falls within the allowable limits. Many radio, communication, and digital products must obtain FCC approval to enter the U.S. market, which means they require FCC certification.

FCC certification is mandatory in the U.S., primarily for powered products. The FCC certification process does not require factory inspections.

Documents Required for FCC Certification

1. Basic information and address of the product manufacturer and applicant.

2. A copy of the installation and user manual for the product requiring FCC certification.

3. The electrical schematic and working principle description for the product requiring certification.

4. A table of operating oscillation frequencies for the product.

5. Any other relevant product characteristics that need to be explained.

Notes for Documentation:

1. Relevant documents must be provided in both Chinese and English.

2. To shorten the certification cycle, documents should be provided in electronic form.

3. Additional relevant documents may be required during the certification process.
