The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a global standardization organization composed of national electrotechnical committees. The IEC report is an international safety testing report presented in a standardized format, listing the requirements of relevant IEC standards in a checklist format. The report includes all tests, measurements, verifications, inspections, and evaluation results in a clear and unambiguous manner. It also contains photos, national deviations, clause determinations, and product descriptions. Since the testing standards are internationally recognized, IEC reports do not require factory inspections.
Certification bodies in IEC member countries test the safety performance of electrical products based on IEC standards. If the test results meet the requirements, an IEC test report is issued, which is mutually recognized among IEC member countries. This significantly reduces international trade barriers caused by different certification or approval requirements in various countries.
Obtaining an IEC report confirms that a product complies with IEC standards, increasing its competitiveness in global markets. Additionally, an IEC report can be used to apply for CB reports, CE reports, GS reports, saa certification, and pre-shipment inspections for Middle Eastern and African countries.

- Electrical Hazards: Protection against energy sources, insulation materials, and safety components.
- Fire Hazards from Electrical Sources: Power source classification, ignition source control, fire safety, internal and external wiring.
- Hazards from Hazardous Substances: Testing for potentially harmful materials.
- Mechanical Hazards: Ensuring mechanical safety and preventing injuries.
- Thermal Burns: Protection against burns from heat exposure.
- Radiation Hazards: Radiation source classification, laser safety, acoustic energy protection.
Step 1: Provide a Sample
Submit a sample of the product for testing.
Step 2: Fill Out the Application Form
Complete and submit the required application documents.
Step 3: Provide Necessary Product Documents
This includes:
- Product manual
- Product model list (including series models)
- List of key components and their certifications
- Product photos
- Product nameplate details
Step 4: Sample Testing & Report Issuance
- If the sample passes testing, the IEC report is issued.
- If the sample fails testing, corrective actions must be taken, and the product must undergo retesting before the final report is issued.
Important Note:
When applying for IEC certification, it is essential to specify the target countries to be included in the report. This ensures that national deviations are considered during testing.
