How long does FCC Certification take?

Many of our friends are concerned about the FCC certification and UL certification required for exporting products to the United States. Perhaps many friends have emailed me asking how much it costs for their products to undergo FCC certification? And how long does FCC certification take? Today, we will answer these two questions for everyone.

I. Duration of fcc testing

Currently, FCC certification mainly involves testing for radiation, conduction, and other content.

fcc sdoc: 5-7 working days to complete testing

fcc id: 10-15 working days to complete testing

II. Duration of FCC Certification

1. FCC ID Certification

Specifically for wireless products, the certificate is issued by a US TCB institution. When applying for certification, the enterprise first needs to apply for a code. The certification company completes product testing and issues a test report, which is then reviewed by the TCB institution before issuing the certificate. This process takes a relatively long time, approximately four weeks.

2. FCC VOC

This type of certification is specifically for ordinary electronic products, mainly testing radiation. After passing, a report and certificate are issued by a third-party testing institution, which typically takes about one week.

3. FCC SDoC

Mainly for IT products, computers, and computer peripherals, this type of testing is more complex, and the certification period is moderate, taking about 1 to 2 weeks.

Now that we've covered the duration of FCC certification and testing, you probably have a rough idea of when to contact a testing institution to submit your products. Next, let's take a look at the FCC certification fees.

How Much Does FCC EMC Testing Cost?

fcc part 15 Certification Cost:

The overall pricing depends on the category of the product, whether it belongs to fcc part 15b or Part 15C/E. Assuming the product is a very simple electronic product without radio frequency functions, the cost of applying for FCC Part 15B is approximately $900, and it takes 1 to 2 weeks for one sample.

What products need FCC Certification?

FCC formulates technical standards for testing electronic and electrical equipment based on the type of radio frequency emitted. According to regulations, it can be categorized into the following types:

FCC Part 15 - Radio Frequency Devices

fcc part 18 - Industrial, Scientific, and Medical Equipment

FCC Part 22 - Cellular Telephones

FCC Part 24 - Personal Communication Services

FCC Part 68 - All Types of Terminal Equipment for Telecommunications

FCC Part 74 - Experimental, Auxiliary, Special, and other Program Distribution Services

FCC Part 90 - Personal Land Mobile Radio Services

FCC Part 95 - Personal Radio Services

Categorized by frequency, they are as follows:

1. Emission frequency: 125KHz, 13.5MHz

Typical products: door card readers, bus card readers

2. Emission frequency: 27MHz, 49MHz

Typical products: remote-controlled toys, wireless mice, non-professional walkie-talkies

3. Emission frequency: 315MHz, 433MHz (intermittent, periodic products, remote-controlled toys prohibited)

Typical products: remote-controlled switches, wireless doorbells, anti-theft devices, Baby Monitors

4. Emission frequency: 88-108MHz

Typical products: FM transmitters

5. Emission frequency: 902-928MHz, 2400-2483.5MHz, 5725-5850MHz

Typical products: remote-controlled toys, wireless mice, Bluetooth, WiFi transmitters
