1. Certification (ID Certification )
Certification is mostly applied to technically difficult wireless products, low power transmitters such as cordless phones, remote controls for automatic doors, radio-controlled toys, and security alarm systems. Part 15 of the intentional emission of radio frequency energy devices, Part 18 of the mass consumer use of industrial, scientific and medical equipment, automatic frequency receiver and ultra-regenerative receiver, television interface equipment, and home computers and their peripherals. Also includes special: consumer energy-saving lamps.
Certification certification requires information:

2. Declaration of Conformity
Declaration of Conformity (DoC / Declaration of Conformity) The DoC is the most commonly used method of FCC certification and is characterized by being economical and fast. This method does not require the FCC staff to review the test reports, and vendors can use the self-certification method. However, the self-certification test report must be issued by the NVLAP standards-accredited laboratory.
FCC Class A products can extend the self-certification method, the application process does not need to be reviewed by the FCC Commission. The DoC certification method may also be used for products to which Verification applies.
The DoC method applies to general IT products and their peripherals. This includes home computers and peripherals, residential broadcast receivers, ultra-regenerative receivers, other receivers under FCC Rule Part 15, television interface devices, cable system termination devices, and industrial, scientific, and medical devices for mass consumer use under Part 18.

3. Verification
Verification
Self-verification is a process whereby the responsible party for the equipment (manufacturer or importer) ensures that the product has undergone the necessary testing to confirm that the product complies with the relevant technical standards and retains the test report. The FCC reserves the right to require the manufacturer to submit samples of the equipment or test data from the product. Verification is available through Listed Lab. and above. Verification applies to technologically mature products such as televisions, business computers, TV and FM receivers, and industrial, scientific, and medical devices not intended for mass consumer use under FCC Rule Part 18.
Note: If two or three methods of approval are applicable to a device, the responsible party for the device chooses which method to use.
