Regarding the costs for FCC SDoC certification of non-wireless electronic products, I have compiled the latest market information for you as of October 2025. Overall, basic testing fees typically range between 1,000 and 3,500 RMB, with the specific amount fluctuating based on factors like product complexity and laboratory choice.

Core Costs for FCC SDoC Certification of Non-Wireless Electronic Products:

  Key Factors Affecting FCC SDoC Certification Costs:

1.Product Complexity:The number and design of internal circuit structures, power modules, motors, and other components all affect testing difficulty and time. More complex functions may lead to higher testing costs.

2.Laboratory Choice: Different laboratories have varying fee standards. Reports from internationally renowned institutions have wider acceptance but may cost 20%-30% more; choosing local or domestic laboratories usually offers better cost-effectiveness.

3.Potential Additional Fees:

·Rectification & Re-testing: If the product fails the initial test and requires modification and re-testing, this may increase the initial cost by 30% - 50%.

·Expedited Service: If the certification timeline needs shortening, laboratories usually offer expedited services but charge an additional 20% - 50% expedited fee.

·Other Services: Some institutions charge document processing fees.

  FCC SDoC Certification Process and Important Reminders:

To help you complete the certification more smoothly, here is some practical information about the process and the latest regulations:

1.Confirm Product Applicability: This is the most critical first step. Ensure your product has no wireless transmission functions (like Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, etc.). If it includes wireless functions, you need to apply for the more complex FCC ID certification.

2.Choose a Compliant Laboratory: According to the security new rules for the Equipment Authorization Program released by the FCC in 2025 (primarily affecting FCC ID certification), it also reminds us that choosing independent, compliant third-party laboratories is crucial for ensuring the long-term validity of certification.

3.Sign Declaration & Retain Documents: After passing the tests, the US Responsible Party (manufacturer or importer) must sign the Supplier's Declaration of Conformity (SDoC) document. Special attention is needed here: All technical documents (including test reports, circuit diagrams, SDoC, etc.) must be retained for at least 10 years after production of the product has ceased for potential FCC inspection.

⚠️ Avoid Potential Risks:

1.Do Not Make False Declarations: The FCC conducts market spot checks. If found providing false declarations or the product does not meet requirements, you risk product removal from the market, high fines (up to $1.5 million), and loss of credit.

2.Certification is Not Interchangeable: Even if the product has passed EU CE certification, it cannot directly replace FCC certification. EMC standards differ between Europe and the US, and specialized FCC testing for the US market is mandatory.

We hope the above information helps you fully understand the costs and process of FCC SDoC certification.
