Voluntary Japan VCCI Certification Japan TELEC Testing & Certification

Certification introduction
VCCI is Japan’s electromagnetic compatibility certification mark and is managed by Japan’s Voluntary Control Council for Interference by Information Technology Equipment. VCCI certification is not mandatory, but information technology products sold in Japan are generally required to undergo VCCI certification. Manufacturers should first apply to become a member of VCCI before they can use the VCCI mark. In order to obtain VCCI recognition, the EMI test report provided must be issued by a VCCI registered and accredited testing agency. Japan currently has no standards for immunity.
