The FCC profile
FCC, also known as the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), was established by the Communications Act in 1934. It is an independent agency of the United States government, directly responsible to the Congress. The FCC coordinates domestic and international communications by controlling radio, television, telecommunications, satellites and cables. FCC's Office of Engineering and Technology is responsible for the technical support of the commission to ensure the safety of radio and wire communication products related to life and property, which covers more than 50 states, Columbia and the respective regions of the United States. Also responsible for equipment approval. FCC approval is required for many radio applications, communications products, and digital products to enter the U.S. market. The FCC investigates and studies all phases of product safety to figure out how best to address problems. It also includes radio equipment, aircraft testing, and more.
 
According to the relevant part of the United States federal communications Regulations (CFR 47), all electronic products entering the United States need to be certified for ELECTROMAGNETIC compatibility (emc) (except for some products specified in the relevant provisions). There are three common Certification methods: Certification, DoC, and Verification. The certification methods and procedures for these three products are quite different. The certification methods that can be selected for different products are stipulated in the FCC. The rigor of its certification decreases. For these three kinds of certification, the FCC Commission also has relevant requirements for each laboratory. At present, the United States has been China's second largest trading partner for several years in a row, and the trade volume between China and the United States has been on the rise year by year, so the export to the United States cannot be underestimated. The technical standards and import regulations of the United States are the most rigorous in the world. Understanding the market access rules of the United States will help Chinese products to further open the American market.
 
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) ---- regulates the import and use of radio-frequency devices, including computers, fax machines, electronic devices, radio receiving and transmission equipment, radio-controlled toys, telephones, personal computers, and other products that may harm human safety. If these products are to be exported to the United States, they must be tested and approved by a government-authorized laboratory in accordance with FCC technical standards. Importers and customs agents are required to declare that each radio frequency device complies with FCC standards, known as FCC licenses.
