本頁整理了 FCC 認證 的官方文件、目前狀態以及常見相關認證或評估機構,便於快速理解要求與落地路徑。
Mandatory for RF Devices
All devices that emit radio frequency energy must be authorized before being marketed, imported, or operated in the United States — covering Wi-Fi routers, Bluetooth devices, phones, and IoT products.
Two Authorization Paths
Devices require either FCC Certification (through an accredited Telecommunication Certification Body) or Supplier's Declaration of Conformity (SDoC) depending on device type and risk level.
National Security Provisions
Since 2022, the FCC prohibits equipment authorizations for companies identified as posing national security threats, including certain foreign manufacturers.

- Equipment authorization (Certification or SDoC) before marketing
- FCC ID label and marking requirements
- RF emission limits per device type (Part 15, 18, 22, 24, etc.)
- Testing at accredited laboratories
- Technical documentation and test reports
- Post-market surveillance and compliance
Who Needs to Comply?
Any manufacturer, importer, or marketer of electronic devices that intentionally or unintentionally emit radio frequency energy and are sold or used in the United States — including consumer electronics, IoT devices, industrial equipment, and telecommunications gear.
Key Requirements
Equipment Authorization
Obtain FCC Certification through a Telecommunication Certification Body (TCB) or file a Supplier's Declaration of Conformity (SDoC) depending on the device category specified in the applicable FCC rule part.
Testing & Measurement
Conduct RF emissions testing at an FCC-recognized accredited test laboratory. Tests must demonstrate compliance with applicable emission limits, spurious emissions, and conducted/radiated limits.
Labeling & FCC ID
Devices must display the FCC ID (for certified products) or the FCC compliance statement (for SDoC products). E-labeling is permitted for devices with display screens under certain conditions.
Record Retention
Maintain complete test reports, schematics, and technical documentation. Records must be available to the FCC upon request and retained for the period the device is manufactured plus a reasonable period after.
Penalties & Enforcement
The FCC can impose fines up to $237,268 per violation per day, with a statutory maximum of $2,372,677 for a single act. Marketing non-compliant devices can result in seizure, fines, and injunctions. Recent enforcement actions have included fines exceeding $1.2 million.
