5 Industry Canada (IC) Certification

Industry Canada (IC) is the Canadian authority for certifications and standards making. As the FCC certification, the IC certification can either be done through IC or a TCB. An IC certification requires to have a Canadian representative and a confirmation letter from the representative to be submitted with the application.

There is no need for extra RF testing when applying for certification in Canada if the equipment is already certified by FCC and meets the following conditions:

  • The test report must be less than one year old
  • The test house must have their Test Site (OATS or Anechoic chamber) approved by IC
  • A cross-reference table must be submitted with the test report to show that the equipment meets all of the applicable Canadian requirements.
