Why does Amazon want UL's test report?
Electronic products sold on Amazon platform must meet the prescribed standards. If it fails to meet the requirements, it will easily catch fire and endanger the lives and property of consumers. Therefore, due to the lack of UL reports, many customers have removed their products from the shelves, their sales rights have been cancelled, and malicious reports among peers have also triggered audits.
Relevant UL reports are required for live broadcast products to be put on Amazon, and testing reports issued by laboratories with ISO 17025 qualifications are required for normal sales and link recovery.
The difference between UL certification and UL test report
UL certification is a voluntary certification, which requires testing products and auditing factories. The audit is conducted once every quarter, which is costly and takes a long time, and the factory audit is very strict.
UL test report is a qualified test report issued after the product is tested according to the corresponding UL standard. Low cost, short cycle, no need to audit the factory. Can be used for Amazon audit, customs clearance is invalid.

Importance of UL test report
Thanksgiving in the United States is coming, and if the products you sell well are taken off the shelves because there is no UL test report, it will bring greater economic losses.
The serious consequence of not doing UL test report on electronic equipment is not that it is banned by Amazon, but that it is targeted by competitors on the premise that the merchants sell well, and the competitors buy the products of the merchants. If the product does not have the relevant standard safety report, the competitor will entrust an American lawyer to send a letter to Amazon, requesting to stop selling the company's products, and apply for court proceedings to destroy all the company's products in Amazon.
At this time, the merchant not only lost all the inventory, but also paid the lawyer's letter and the cost of destroying the products, which may mean that the company was basically driven out of the North American market.
