Does Amazon Require UL certification?As Amazon's strategic position in global commerce continues to grow, products that contain electrical components listed on Amazon must have the relevant UL reports. These reports need to be issued by laboratories with ISO 17025 accreditation to ensure normal sales and the restoration of product listings. Even if a product manages to get listed, it could still be reported and removed, or even lead to the destruction of all products of the company on Amazon, if it lacks the relevant safety standard reports.

It's important to note that if a product is only to be listed on Amazon, a relevant UL report issued by an ISO 17025 accredited laboratory suffices, and there is no need to apply for a UL certificate. This approach is relatively inexpensive and avoids the need for factory inspections. However, for high-voltage products such as power supplies and displays, companies might consider applying for UL certification or etl certification to gain greater market recognition.

 

So, whether electrical products need UL certification for listing on Amazon depends on the specific product and the strength of the company. However, it is confirmed that Amazon only requires a UL test report issued by an ISO 17025 accredited laboratory. Companies can consider whether to obtain UL certification based on their product positioning to enhance their competitiveness in the US market.

 

Different product types may need to comply with the following UL standards:

- Lithium Battery Packs: UL2054

- Power Banks: UL2056

- Cells: UL1642

- Car Chargers: UL2089

- Audio and Video Equipment: UL62368
