On April 30, 2026 (local time), the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) approved a proposal that will completely bar Chinese laboratories from offering testing and certification services for electronic devices—such as smartphones, cameras, and computers—destined for the U.S. market, in accordance with FCC standards. A two-year transitional period will be implemented to gradually revoke the certification qualifications currently held by Chinese laboratories. Additionally, the FCC intends to introduce an expedited approval process for "trusted laboratories" situated in the United States or in countries that have entered into mutual recognition agreements with the U.S. In response, the Ministry of Commerce vehemently opposed this decision, asserting that it not only undermines the economic and trade relations between China and the United States but also disrupts the international economic and trade order, thereby jeopardizing the stability of global industrial and supply chains.
