Submission and Registration
FCC and ISED Submission & Registration Support
A clear path from product details to a complete certification application.
Stancer Testing-Lab helps product teams organize FCC and ISED certification submissions with the test reports and technical documents required for their equipment. We combine RF testing, applicable EMC measurements and practical documentation support so you know what to prepare and who reviews it. Our A2LA-accredited ISO/IEC 17025 laboratory performs testing within its accredited scope. An authorized FCC Telecommunication Certification Body (TCB) or ISED-recognized Certification Body (CB) makes the applicable certification decision. The route depends on the product; not every device requires certification.Discuss Your SubmissionYour Certification Submission Roadmap
ISED Route
Category I radio equipment requires certification. Other radio or interference-causing equipment follows its applicable requirements and may not require a certification application. Review the product before planning a submission. Review ISED testing and certification requirementsDefine the Route
Review the product category, radio functions, target market and intended authorization route. Identify the applicant, model variants and any existing module approvals before testing.Test and Document
Agree the required measurements and representative configurations. Confirm the methods and accredited coverage, then prepare reports for the applicable FCC or ISED requirements. Assess RF exposure requirements separately where relevant.Prepare the Exhibits
Organize product identification, photographs, operational descriptions, diagrams, manuals, labels and supporting reports. Check consistency across models, configurations and documents before submitting the package.Submit and Respond
Submit through the agreed TCB or CB process. The certification body reviews the application and supporting evidence. Address requests for clarification, revised documents or additional testing as needed.Confirm Certification and Listing
Following a successful review, the certification body issues the applicable certification documentation and completes the required filings. Check the authorized identifiers, conditions and relevant public listing. Use the official FCC equipment authorization search or ISED radio equipment search to verify the corresponding record.Manage Product Changes
Maintain the supporting records and review changes to the product, antenna, firmware or radio configuration. Determine whether the change requires additional measurements or an updated certification application before release.
Build a Consistent Application Package
Use the same model names, product identifiers and configuration details throughout the application, reports, photographs, labels and user documentation.
For additional destinations, review our global market access support before assuming the same evidence will satisfy every market.
Prepare Three Document Groups
Product Identity
- Applicant and manufacturer details
- Model numbers, variants and identifiers
- Label artwork and proposed location
- External and internal photographs
Technical Description
- Operating description and radio specifications
- Block diagrams and relevant schematics
- Antenna details and module approvals
- User manual and installation instructions
Supporting Evidence
- Applicable EMC and RF test reports
- Test configuration and setup photographs
- RF exposure documentation where required
- Required forms and confidentiality requests

Does every electronic product need an FCC or ISED certificate?
No. The product type and applicable rules determine the route. FCC SDoC is distinct from certification, and some ISED equipment is exempt from certification while still needing to meet applicable technical requirements.Who issues the certification?
The authorized certification body makes the certification decision for the applicable route. Stancer supports testing and preparation of the technical evidence; laboratory accreditation is separate from certification-body authorization.How long does certification review take?
Timing depends on application completeness, the equipment, review questions and the certification body’s workload. Share the launch date early so testing and documentation can be planned; approval timing is confirmed for the project.What happens if the product changes after certification?
Changes to hardware, firmware, antennas, radio operation or variants may need assessment, additional testing or an updated application. Review the change against the applicable FCC or ISED procedures before relying on the original approval.Plan your testing
