Which Certifications for Mosquito Killer Lamp Export?

Views :
Update time : 2025-03-18

Mosquito killer lamps are simple and practical mechanical devices designed based on mosquito habits. These devices attract mosquitoes by emitting light and chemical substances and then capture them using a negative pressure system. They are environmentally friendly tools developed by incorporating foreign technologies and improving them through multiple technical modifications.

 

These lamps utilize mosquito behaviors such as phototaxis, airflow movement, temperature sensitivity, and aggregation tendencies. In particular, they exploit mosquitoes' attraction to carbon dioxide and sex pheromones to enhance their efficiency. Mosquito killer lamps can be classified into three types: electronic mosquito killer lamps, adhesive mosquito killer lamps, and negative pressure airflow mosquito traps. These lamps are characterized by their simple structure, low cost, aesthetic appeal, compact size, and energy efficiency. Since they do not require chemical mosquito repellents, they are considered an environmentally friendly mosquito control method.

 

Certifications Required for Exporting Mosquito Killer Lamps to Amazon EU and U.S. Markets

1. CE certification for Mosquito Killer Lamps (EU)

The CE mark is a safety certification symbol regarded as a manufacturer's passport to enter the European market. CE stands for Conformité Européenne (European Conformity).

 

Under EU law, manufacturers and importers are responsible for verifying that their products comply with relevant EU directives. This means manufacturers (or importers) must undergo various procedures to ensure compliance with applicable requirements. They must maintain a technical documentation file, including a detailed product description, drawings, reports, etc.

 

Once the manufacturer or its representative determines that the product meets the relevant standards, they must sign a Declaration of Conformity and affix the CE mark to the product.

 

2. ROHS certification for Mosquito Killer Lamps (EU)

Some may wonder why RoHS certification is necessary when CE certification has already been obtained. The reason lies in the hazardous substances present in electrical and electronic equipment.

 

In 2000, the Netherlands discovered cadmium in cables used in gaming consoles sold on the market. Many electronic products contain harmful heavy metals such as lead, which are found in solder and printing inks used in packaging.

 

The EU RoHS directive took effect on July 1, 2006, prohibiting the sale of electronic and electrical products exceeding the limit for heavy metals like lead and cadmium, as well as flame retardants such as PBDE and PBB. Products that fail to meet RoHS standards cannot enter the EU market.

 

3. FCC-SDoC Certification for Mosquito Killer Lamps (U.S. Clearance)

The FCC-SDoC (Supplier’s Declaration of Conformity) is a self-declaration process that ensures products comply with FCC technical specifications. However, this self-declaration is not arbitrary—products must be tested and proven to meet required limits.

 

To complete the SDoC process, the product must comply with:

- Labeling and user manual requirements

- Importer and product technical documentation requirements

 

Once all criteria are met, the manufacturer can self-declare compliance.

 

4. UL Test Report/UL certification for Mosquito Killer Lamps (Amazon Review Requirement)

- UL Standard: UL 1559 (Insect Control Equipment Testing Standard)

 

The U.S. has strict safety requirements for electronic products. Domestic manufacturers have been required to obtain safety certifications for years.

 

To ensure compliance, U.S. authorities have enforced laws requiring Amazon to mandate safety reports for foreign sellers. Without a UL-standard test report, Amazon can prohibit the sale of mosquito killer lamps. The test report must be issued by an ISO 17025 accredited laboratory.

 

UL Certification for U.S. Customs Clearance

- Not mandatory for customs clearance

- Amazon requires a UL-standard test report for safety audits

 

5. EPA Certification for Mosquito Killer Lamps (U.S.)

EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) Certification is a mandatory requirement in the U.S. It focuses on a product's emission performance to protect public health and the environment.

 

Many countries, including the U.S., require EPA certification before products can enter the market.

 

Products regulated by the EPA include:

- Mosquito killer lamps

- Mosquito repellent lamps

- Water purifiers

- Ultrasonic pest repellers

- Various disinfection and sterilization devices

 

These products must obtain EPA certification before being sold in the U.S.
