Bluetooth BQB Certification
Certification Introduction
Bluetooth certification is also called BQB certification. In short, if your product has Bluetooth function and the Bluetooth logo is marked on the product appearance, it must pass BQB certification. Bluetooth certification is a certification procedure that any product using Bluetooth wireless technology must go through. The Bluetooth wireless technology defined in the Bluetooth system specification allows short-range wireless data connections between devices.

Products with Bluetooth function and marked with the Bluetooth logo (Bluetooth logo) on the product appearance must pass the Bluetooth BQB (Bluetooth Qualification Body) certification.

Standard Reference
The Bluetooth Certification Program Reference Document is a standard reference for the product certification process.
Bluetooth Special Interest Group members have the exclusive right to use Bluetooth wireless technology in the product list of the Bluetooth Certified Products List (QPL). Bluetooth SIG members are free.
The Bluetooth QPL lists all licensed Bluetooth finished products, subsystems, components and development tools. Products listed in the QPL are specially authorized by Bluetooth Certification Bodies (BQBs) distributed around the world. Any BQB can evaluate, certify, and list any certified product. Joining BQB early can minimize the time and cost of product development.
Organization
The Bluetooth Product Certification Policy, documented in the PRD, is developed by the Bluetooth Certification Evaluation Board (BQRB), which is elected by representatives from the nine Bluetooth SIG sponsoring companies. The certification process is managed by the Bluetooth Certification Administrator (BQA) who represents the interests of the BQRB.
The BQRB recognizes individual Bluetooth Certification Bodies (BQBs) and authorizes them to certify and list products. The BQRB also recognizes Bluetooth Qualification Test Facilities (BQTFs) that have been accredited as valid for performing and reporting Class A test results (see Certification Process Description for more details). The BQRB also recognizes Bluetooth Technical Evaluators who evaluate and recommend BQTF candidates.

Bluetooth BQB Certification Cycle and Sample Requirements
1) Certification Cycle: 1-2 weeks;
2) Sample Quantity: 2 finished products, 2 engineering prototypes (enter BQB test mode).

Bluetooth BQB Certification Group
Bluetooth Group
The Bluetooth Certification Group (BQB) is a group authorized by the BQRB to provide services to members who need to obtain Bluetooth product certification. Members obtain certification services directly through BQB. BQB is responsible for checking non-compliant statements and documents, evaluating product test reports, and listing products in the official database of Bluetooth authorized products. BQB must be a member of the Bluetooth SIG or an employee of the Bluetooth SIG. BQB is an independent individual and does not need to be affiliated with a test organization or manufacturer.

Bluetooth BQB Certification Test Organization

The Bluetooth Certification Test Organization (BQTF) is officially recognized by the BQRB and can complete the "Class A" Bluetooth certification conformance test identification in the Test Case Reference List (TCRL). The authoritative description of the role of the BQTF is in Section 4.3.3 of the Bluetooth Certification Program Reference Document (PRD). Members can directly use the BQTF for testing services. Typically, the BQTF can also provide additional Bluetooth testing services.
Scope of capabilities
1. Radio frequency conformance testing, including RF, baseband and physical test specifications.
2. Protocol and profile conformance testing, including baseband, link management, L2CAP and profile conformance test specifications.
BQTF conformance test capabilities can be found on the Test Instance Status and Capabilities page. Information about the BQTF certification process and standards can be found on the BQTF Applicant page.
Qualification Authorization
The task of a Bluetooth Technical Assessor (BTA) is to evaluate the technical capabilities of test organizations assigned to Bluetooth conformance testing and later authorized by Bluetooth SIG as Bluetooth Certified Test Equipment (BQTF) on behalf of the Bluetooth Certification Evaluation Board (BQRB).
The steps and criteria for becoming an authorized BTA are described on the BTA Application page.
