Today I would like to share an important update: On December 8, 2025, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in the United States released the latest version of the "Guidelines for Regulated Devices", further strengthening the requirements for "national security threat prevention". The core change is to adjust the submission method of the U.S. Agent for Service of Process within the United States. Effective date: December 15, 2025.

Key points of core updates


TCB must take a dual approach when handling device authorization:

1. PDF attachment: The "Agent Designation Letter" is attached as the official PDF file in the application materials.

2. Form 731 entry: Fill in the agent's name, US physical address, phone number, and email address completely in the "Non Technical Contact" column.

not a single one can be omitted! Otherwise, the authorization application will be blocked directly.

Compliance Reminder


TCB will strictly review: the address must be a real physical address in the United States (do not use P.O. Box or virtual email), and the agent must agree in writing to receive legal documents (such as FCC notices or court documents).

The original rules remain unchanged: the qualifications, signing and term requirements of the agent remain unchanged, without affecting the existing authorization.

Background tip: This originates from FCC Order 22-84 of 2022, which aims to protect the security of the communication supply chain and ensure that foreign applicants can be easily contacted by the FCC. Suitable for authentication of RF devices such as Wi Fi and Bluetooth.

The impact on us: Manufacturers and applicants should pay attention! Next time when submitting certification, prepare the agent information quickly to avoid delaying the progress. Testing laboratories also need to undergo more audits.
