2026-03-20

Many exporters use outdated standards or incomplete testing, resulting in customs holds and listing rejections. This is the fully updated 2026 guide.

I. 2026 FCC ID Core Standards

FCC ID uses frequency-specific standards:

·Bluetooth & 2.4G devices: FCC Part 15.247

·WiFi 2.4G / 5G / 5.8G: Part 15.247 + Part 15.407

·Low-power remote controls & toys: Part 15.231

·Walkie-talkies & professional radio: Part 90

·Cellular devices (phones, watches): Part 22 & Part 24

·Radar & industrial RF: Part 15.255

Old reports are often rejected in 2026.

  II. Mandatory FCC ID Test Items

·Frequency and bandwidth verification

·Conducted and radiated power output

·Spurious emission limits

·Occupied bandwidth testing

·Radiated emissions testing

·Label and manual compliance check

All tests are required — no partial testing allowed.
