Cost Estimates by Product Complexity:
1.Simple Products (e.g., adapters, LED lights): $700–$1,100
2.Moderately Complex Products (e.g., IT equipment): $1,100–$2,100
3.Highly Complex Products (e.g., home appliances, wireless devices): $2,800–$14,000+ (medical devices may exceed $7,000)
Factors Influencing Cost:
1.NCB Selection: International NCBs typically charge more than local ones.
2.National Differences: Additional testing for country-specific requirements can increase total cost by 20–40%.
3.Expedited Services: Rush fees can increase total cost by 30–50% (standard timeline: 4–8 weeks).
