What are the requirements for applying for an FCC ID for a wireless product?

Last Updated on：2023-03-10 03:23:56

Recently, FCC has raised stricter requirements on the antenna materials required for applying for an FCC ID for a wireless product. An antenna report needs to be provided to prove the accuracy of the gain information. FCC has forcibly required Part 15 certificate applicants to provide the antenna report or antenna specifications since September 2022. For the certificates that have been issued, TCB will notify the labs to supplement the required materials when a certificate enters the audit state. Currently, we are not sure whether a spot check or general check will be performed on issued certificates. You can notify customers to prepare the required antenna materials in advance so that they can promptly provide the materials after receiving a notification from TCB. If any entity fails to provide the required antenna materials after receiving a notification from TCB, its certificate may be revoked in the worst circumstances.

The antenna gain information is provided in the specifications of most modules.

For the antenna report, you can search for the corresponding module materials by using the PID on the Tuya IoT Platform. The antenna report is contained in the module materials.
