Temu has made detailed provisions for the FCC/CE mark label compliance requirements for electronic and electrical products. This new policy mainly involves verification categories, major laws and regulations, certification mark label requirements, mark label specifications, and verification measures. For sellers selling electronic and electrical products on the platform, special attention should be paid and corresponding preparations should be made.
1. Verification categories and relevant laws and regulations.
The Temu platform requires verification of electronic and electrical products under the first-level categories, mainly including home appliances, electronics, mobile phones and accessories, video games, industrial and scientific, automotive products, musical instruments, office supplies, clothing, shoes and jewelry, maternal and child products, toys and games, art, crafts and sewing products, sports and outdoor products, etc. At the same time, according to different categories, it is necessary to comply with the two major laws of FCC and CE.
FCC verification categories: mainly include radio frequency devices that emit radio frequency energy by radiation, conduction or other means, such as wireless, communication, etc.
CE verification categories: mainly include radio equipment, low voltage and other directives.
2. Certification mark label requirements.
For electronic and electrical products, certification mark labels can be pasted or printed on the actual product, instructions or packaging boxes. The standard requirements for the mark label are as follows:
Fill in English and the information must be true;
The font must be clear, neat and beautiful;
The size must be moderate, and there must be no random alterations, scribbling or other irregularities.
Before applying the label, the seller must ensure that the product has met the certification, testing, requirements and other conditions of the relevant certification mark, otherwise they may face responsibilities and consequences.
3. Verification measures.
The Temu platform will verify the mark labels required by the sales site, and the products that do not meet the mark label control requirements will be rejected. This verification measure will start from September 1, 2023, and the platform will continue to strengthen the investigation.
If the seller violates the rules during the operation, including false labeling without relevant qualification certification, abnormal label batch, etc., the platform has the right to deal with it in accordance with the “Temu Platform Seller Service Agreement” and/or platform rules.
4. How to deal with it?
In order to cope with the compliance challenges brought by the new policy, sellers can take the following measures:
Check product categories in a timely manner: According to the specific products sold, clarify the primary category to which they belong, and understand the legal requirements under the category.
Ensure the compliance of certification marks: Before selling goods, ensure that relevant certifications have been obtained and apply logo labels in accordance with regulations. Pay attention to the regulatory requirements of the labels to ensure that the information is true, clear and visible.
