Frequently asked questions

What is FCC Part 15 certification?

FCC Part 15 is the US regulation governing radio-frequency devices, including intentional radiators (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth) and unintentional radiators (digital electronics). Certification is mandatory before marketing RF devices in the United States.

How long does FCC certification take in India?

FCC certification through a Telecommunication Certification Body typically takes 15-25 days after lab testing. First-time applicants should plan 30-45 days including lab scheduling, sample preparation and TCB review.

What is an FCC ID?

An FCC ID is a unique identifier assigned by the Telecommunication Certification Body after reviewing the equipment. The FCC ID must be visible on the product label and registered on the FCC Equipment Authorization database.

Which devices need FCC certification vs Declaration of Conformity?

Intentional radiators (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, cellular) require FCC Certification through a TCB. Unintentional radiators (digital electronics without RF) only require a Supplier Declaration of Conformity (SDoC).

Does FCC certification need renewal?

No, FCC Equipment Authorization Grants do not expire as long as the product design remains unchanged. A new FCC filing is required only for hardware modifications that affect RF performance or compliance.

Can a non-US manufacturer get FCC certification?

Yes, non-US manufacturers can apply directly or through a US agent. The FCC ID and labeling rules apply equally, but having a US contact simplifies market surveillance response and customs queries.

What is the cost of FCC certification in India?

FCC certification for a single product starts from ₹19,999 including lab testing and TCB review. Multi-band or complex products, RF exposure reports and modular approvals may add cost.

Does FCC Part 15 cover Bluetooth and Wi-Fi?

Yes, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Zigbee and other intentional radiators fall under FCC Part 15C and require full certification with an FCC ID. Power levels and bandwidth determine the rule part applicable.
