Delegated Regulation (EU) 2022/30 activated the cybersecurity requirements of Art. 3(3)(d) and (e) for all internet-connected radio equipment marketed in the EU.
You enter your product specifications. REDCheck structures the cybersecurity documentation requirement by requirement, following the EN 18031 categories.
FCC Part 15 regulates electromagnetic emissions and radio frequency interference. It does not address cybersecurity, personal data protection or network protection. The EU cybersecurity requirements under Art. 3(3)(d), (e) and (f) of Directive 2014/53/EU have no equivalent in FCC regulations. They are completely separate obligations.
If your hub connects to a WiFi network that has internet access, it communicates over the internet indirectly. Art. 1(1) of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2022/30 covers both direct and indirect internet connectivity. A Zigbee/BLE hub that bridges to the cloud via WiFi is internet-connected radio equipment.
Amazon processes listing suspensions automatically. Once your 30-day notice expires, listings come down across all EU Amazon stores simultaneously. Reinstating requires documentation upload, review and re-approval — typically 2–6 weeks of zero EU revenue.

If you fully apply EN 18031, you can self-declare via Module A (Annex II) without a Notified Body. If you partially apply or don't apply the harmonised standards, Art. 17(4) requires third-party involvement. REDCheck does not replace a Notified Body — it generates the documentation that is a prerequisite for any conformity route.
