Bluetooth headset is a headset with Bluetooth wireless communication function. It can let users free from annoying wires and talk easily in various ways. Since the advent of Bluetooth headset, it has been a good tool for mobile business people to improve efficiency. However, if Bluetooth headphones want to enter the UK market, they need to apply for UKCA certification.

What is UKCA certification

UKCA is the abbreviation of the United Kingdom Conformity Assessed (UK Conformity Assessment), which is the new product certification launched after the Brexit of the UK. The electronic and electrical products entering the UK market need to pass the standard test under the UK regulations, obtain the UKCA certification certificate, and the products are marked with the UKCA mark to replace the use of the EU CE mark in the UK market.

Necessity of applying for UKCA certification for Bluetooth earphones exported to the UK

UKCA certification is equivalent to the "UK version" CE mark. Its purpose is to regulate products entering the UK market, just as the CE mark regulates products entering the EU market. After January 1, 2021, the United Kingdom stipulated that all products exported to the United Kingdom should immediately use the new UKCA certification mark. The CE mark is no longer recognized.
