Over half of HDMI LA audit rejections stem from incomplete or mismatched paperwork instead of failed lab testing; categorized full document list below.

1 Adopter Membership Registration Documents

·Full Chinese & English business license, legal representative ID; company M&A/renaming needs official industrial & commercial change certification.

·Complete corporate info (registered address, contact mailbox, core product lineup).

·Small Business Adopter supplementary: Annual revenue audit/tax filing records to verify revenue threshold eligibility.

·Dedicated contact mailbox for all HDMI LA official compliance & fee reminder notifications.

  2 HDCP Authorization Application Materials

Specify supported HDCP versions (1.4 / 2.2 / 2.3), product category & key type. HDCP 1.4 keys run on independent renewal cycles separate from yearly Adopter dues, requiring separate periodic monitoring. HDCP access must activate before HDCP lab testing.

  3 CDF Compliance Declaration Form (Highest Error Rate File)

Critical matching rules:

·Exact product model consistent with housing silkscreen (no internal R&D codenames).

·Hardware/firmware version, HDMI IC model, HDCP key version match actual prototypes.

·EDID supported resolution, refresh rate, eARC/VRR/LIP features aligned with test data & product spec sheet.

  4 ATC Lab Test Submission Technical Docs

·Product specification sheet: HDMI port type, max bandwidth, HDR/audio format support list.

·Partial HDMI schematic: Differential traces, SCDC I2C circuit, HDCP storage circuit.

·Filtered BOM: HDMI controller, HDCP chip, EDID EEPROM & antenna matching components only.

·Complete EDID binary data file for pre-compatibility verification.

·2 minimum functional engineering prototypes (HDCP on/off dual test configuration). Multi-port devices require separate test fixtures per HDMI interface.

  5 Chip Reuse Filing Supporting Papers

IC vendor Adopter ID, certified chip Test ID, bilateral authorized usage agreement, full end-product BOM listing the reused certified chip; single chip model submission alone gets filing rejected.

  6 Post-Certification Trademark & Archival Docs

·HDMI logo artwork pre-audit before mass printing (minimum print height standard: logo ≥3mm, full text mark ≥5mm, matching HDMI spec version branding). No HDMI graphics allowed on packaging/samples before Test ID issuance.

·Permanent archive package: Adopter membership certificate, Test ID listing record, full ATC test reports, quarterly royalty payment receipts, HDCP key expiry monitoring logs, all hardware/firmware change records with delta test reports.

·Entity transfer filing documents for corporate M&A / name revision to avoid invalidated Test IDs.
