New Requirements for radio frequency device listings on Amazon.com

The FCC Radio Frequency Emission Compliance attribute is now available for you to add your FCC compliance information to radio frequency devices that you offer for sale on Amazon.

As per Amazon policy, all radio frequency devices (RFDs) must comply with Federal Communications Commission (FCC) regulations and all federal, state, and local laws applicable to those products and product listings.

You may not be aware that you are selling products the FCC identifies as RFDs. The FCC broadly classifies RFDs as any electronic or electrical product that is capable of emitting radio frequency energy. According to the FCC, almost all electronic or electrical products are capable of emitting radio frequency energy. Examples of products that are regulated by the FCC as RFDs include: Wi-Fi devices, Bluetooth devices, radios, broadcast transmitters, signal boosters, and devices with cellular technology. FCC guidance on what is considered an RFD can be found here.

If you are listing an RFD for sale on Amazon, in the FCC Radio Frequency Emission Compliance attribute, you must do one of the following:

  1. Provide evidence of FCC authorization consisting of either an FCC certification number or contact information for the Responsible Party as defined by the FCC.
  2. Declare that the product is not capable of emitting radio frequency energy or is not required to obtain an FCC RF equipment authorization. For more information about filling out the FCC Radio Frequency Emission Compliance attribute, click here.

Effective March 7, 2022, we will be removing ASINs that are missing required FCC information from the Amazon store, until that information is provided.For more information, go to Amazon’s Radio Frequency Devices policy. You can also bookmark this article for future reference.

That took long enough. Hopefully, the forums have an electronics guru hiding in the shadows, that can make this simple for the myriad of Alibaba customers (and the false positives, if we assume this is going to be like the pesticide enforcement debacle, and snag the odd textbook on electronics now and then). And assist in navigating the system, satisfactorily.

Anybody, willing to step up?

Is Amazon expecting (for example) all 100 sellers of a particular Xbox controller SKU to submit FCC certification details for a product page they didn’t create?

This site gets more ridiculous by the day, time to have a bunch of products that have nothing to do with Radio Frequency get pulled off this site. Selling here has become more of a chore than rewarding as no actual human being reviews anything and we are constantly at the mercy of poor AI bots that do not even look at actual competitive prices but instead look at prices made 20 years ago.

I sell a wide variety of used electronics, and got an email with lots of those ASINs. I hope this is not going to require the manufacturer who created the page to edit the FCC attribute, because if so, a lot of listings are going to permanently come down for no good reason.

I sell almost exclusively books (and have little listed on Amazon nowadays) but got this notification because of one item: a still-sealed themed Clapper I have up.

I guess I’ll sit back and see if someone updates the listing or just watch Amazon’s machinary kick my little Clapper to the curb.
