What is required for Amazon: a UL certificate or a report?

The cost of UL certification is extremely high, often ranging from tens of thousands to over a hundred thousand. It involves factory inspections and certification issuance, and the process is very lengthy, with a typical timeline of six months just to receive the certificate. In comparison, the advantages of a UL test report are much greater. A UL test report must be issued by an ILAC ISO 17025 accredited laboratory; otherwise, it is not recognized. Although a UL test report does not carry the same level of authority as the UL certification, it is accepted by Amazon and is perfectly fine for listing products on Amazon.
