What certification is required to sell electric products on Amazon? How do electric products go about logistics?

When doing business on Amazon, the most important thing is the product. Amazon's hot-selling products are mainly clothing accessories, home furniture, 3C digital products, mobile phone accessories, mobile power banks, etc. So what certification is required to sell powered products on Amazon?

1. What certification is required to sell electric products on Amazon?

1. FCC certification

2. CE certification

3. UL certification

In the United States, it is a non-mandatory certification, mainly for product safety performance testing and certification, and its certification scope does not include the EMC (electromagnetic compatibility) characteristics of the product. Certification mark: "us" on the lower right means it is applicable to the United States, "c" on the lower left means it is applicable to Canada, and "c" on both means it is applicable to both countries.

4. GS certification

Based on the German Product Safety Law (GPGS), it is a voluntary certification that is tested in accordance with the EU unified standard EN or the German industrial standard DIN. It is a German safety certification mark recognized by the European market. The applicable standards of GS certification are the corresponding EN safety standards of the EU. GS certification is more stringent than the low voltage safety certification (LVD certification) of CE certification. It requires factory inspection and annual inspection, while CE-LVD does not require it.

5. ROHS testing

It is a mandatory standard established by EU legislation, which is mainly used to regulate the materials and process standards of electronic and electrical products to make them more beneficial to human health and environmental protection.

2. How do Amazon's electric products go about logistics?

1. Postal parcels for battery products

Generally, the delivery of battery products is centered on foreign postal parcels, such as Dutch post parcels. There are three reasons for this. One is that foreign postal parcels have strong transportation capacity, few restrictions on items, and battery products are officially recognized by carriers. Another reason is that foreign postal parcels are fast in time. The last major reason is that foreign postal parcels rely on the background of foreign post offices and have strong customs clearance capabilities.

2. International dedicated line for battery products

There are more channels for sending battery products in international special lines than commercial express delivery, and almost all of them are special line logistics departing from Hong Kong. Logistics departing from the mainland are almost unable to send electric items due to strict supervision. If you are heading to Japan, you can choose the Japanese special line. If you are heading to the United States, you can choose the American special line. If you are heading to Europe, you can choose the European special line. If you are heading to Russia, you can choose the Russian special line.

3. Commercial express delivery of battery products

Commercial express delivery companies such as DHL, UPS, and FedEx all have channels for shipping battery products, but generally you have to choose an agent to ship the goods, and the official express delivery company basically does not accept batteries. How should we choose? The selection criteria are naturally timeliness, price, and stability, especially channel stability, which to a certain extent affects whether the goods can be delivered and dispatched smoothly.

To summarize, Amazon needs FCC certification, CE certification, UL certification, GS certification and ROHS testing to sell products with electrical connections.
