Really don't ignore these regulations anymore! 7 Compliance Hurdles for Wearable Devices at Sea

Taiwanese sellers who regularly sell wearable devices on Amazon should take note! You'd never guess that as many as 65% of wearable device products have been forced out of the international market because they failed compliance testing. Although smart watches, bracelets, head-mounted devices and smart glasses are constantly innovating, compliance is the real key to survival in the cross-border e-commerce sector.

I've noticed that many e-commerce operators focus on product functionality and marketing, but neglect the necessary hurdle of regulations. The Green Circle's regulatory supplement for cross-border entrepreneurs is a must-have guide for wearable devices going overseas in 2025!

The first barrier is the international electrical safety regulations, including CB, BSMI, CE, NRTL and other electrical safety certifications, as well as the energy consumption requirements of various countries. The second barrier is wireless and RF testing, SAR/MPE verification, carrier conformance verification, and various types of logo verification are indispensable.

The third hurdle is information security regulations, which require that connected devices must undergo security testing before they can be marketed; if the product claims to have medical effects, it must also pass TFDA/FDA/MDR medical material safety testing. The fourth barrier is the international standard for smart textiles, from ASTM D8248 to CPSIA, the U.S. consumer product control should not be ignored.

For example, during the 2012 Olympics, a number of sports wearable devices were banned from use because they failed the AFIRM test, which dealt a major blow to the brand image. The fifth level is the international standard for reliability, which includes environmental simulation tests, waterproof rating, and high accelerated life tests.

The sixth barrier is prohibited substances. RoHS, REACH, French EDCs, CP65 and TSCA regulations have strict requirements for electronic products, and violators will face high fines. The seventh barrier is the mandatory regulation of button cell batteries. The United States, the European Union and Australia have strict safety standards.

Green Circle provides a full range of testing and validation services, from safety and security to wireless communication, from information security to prohibited substances, a one-stop solution to solve the difficulties in bringing wearable devices to market!
