How Long Does Product Certification Actually Take?
Certification timelines vary widely by market and product complexity — here’s a realistic range to budget into your launch planning.

Standard Markets: CE, FCC, RoHS
For straightforward product categories with an experienced manufacturer, standard CE/FCC/RoHS testing and documentation typically adds 2-4 weeks to your sample timeline when scoped early.
Additional Regional Certifications
Markets requiring their own dedicated testing (SASO, KC, PSE) can add 3-8 additional weeks depending on the specific market and product category — a range worth confirming per-market rather than assuming a single global timeline applies.
