There are two main types of certification for electronic products: CE and FCC. CE (Conformité Européenne) is a mandatory certification for products sold in the European Union, while products sold in the United States require FCC (Federal Communications Commission) certification.
To obtain CE certification, manufacturers must submit their products to an accredited testing laboratory and demonstrate that they meet all applicable standards. FCC certification is similar, but manufacturers must follow FCC rules, not standards.
Both CE and FCC certification can be a challenge for manufacturers, but it is important to ensure that your products are properly certified before being sold in either market.
New phone models are finally ready for release, and manufacturers are eager to get CE certification. They submit it to the lab and wait for the results. Unfortunately, the lab found that the phone didn’t meet one of these standards, and the manufacturer needed to make some changes to get certified.
The manufacturer made changes and submitted the phone again. This time, it passed all tests and received CE certification. They are also able to get FCC certification, which is a bonus. Overall, the process was a little frustrating, but it was worth it in the end. This phone is very popular and sells well.
The manufacturer decided to submit the phone for FCC certification as well, in case the CE certification process took too long. They know the FCC certification process is more stringent, but they are confident that their phone meets all the requirements.
After months of waiting, the manufacturer has finally received the news that both CE and FCC certificates have been granted. They were relieved that the process went smoothly and they are happy to start selling their new phone model.
